Parameterized Quantum Circuits as Feature Maps: Representation Quality and Readout Effects in Multispectral Land-Cover Classification

arXiv:2604. 26675v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We investigate variational quantum classifiers (VQCs) for land-cover classification from multispectral satellite imagery, adopting a feature-map perspective in which the quantum circuit defines a nonlinear data embedding while the readout determines how this representation is exploited.

Quantum Algorithm for Distributed Reduction of Entanglements (QADR): A Trainable and Simulation-Efficient QML Framework

arXiv:2606. 01291v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training Variational Quantum Circuits (VQCs) under Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) constraints introduces severe computational limitations: classical statevector simulation memory scales exponentially ($\mathcal{O}(2^n)$), and global cost functions suffer from barren plateaus where gradient variance decays exponentially ($\mathcal{O}(1/2^n)$).

AutoQuREO: A Framework for Automated Quantum Resource Estimation and Optimization

arXiv:2608. 12936v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks.

A Multiclass Quantum Aligned Centroid Kernel

arXiv:2607. 19782v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Kernel methods are powerful tools in machine learning but commonly used full-Gram kernels face three key limitations: (1) quadratic scaling with training set size; (2) the use of fixed, non-trainable kernels; and (3) the absence of an intrinsic formulation for multiclass classification.

Adaptive directional gradients for parameterised quantum circuits

arXiv:2606. 09734v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training parameterised quantum circuits (PQCs) on quantum hardware is bottlenecked by the measurement cost of gradient estimation, which under the parameter-shift rule scales linearly in the number of trainable parameters and dominates the total shot budget of training at scale.

AutoQuREO: A Framework for Automated Quantum Resource Estimation and Optimization

As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks. Quantum resource estimation (QRE) plays a central role in this transition, yet existing approaches remain largely compilation-heavy or domain-knowledge-guided symbolic annotations, and tightly coupled to long-term fault-tolerant assumptions, limiting their topical applicability.
