Circuit cutting lets a large quantum neural network (QNN) run as independent subcircuits on small devices, but rebuilding its outputs by reconstruction carries a classical sampling overhead exponential in the number of cuts - the dominant runtime cost in prior work. We ask whether, for machine-learning tasks, this step is necessary, and replace it with late fusion: each subcircuit is trained and measured independently, and a small classical head combines their outputs - a linear-cost, decision-level combination borrowed from multimodal learning.
We propose a method to optimize the correlation among convolutional neural network (CNN) features that are used as inputs to quantum neural network (QNN) to enhance image classification accuracy. Unlike prior approaches that employ orthogonal decomposition as preprocessing, we intentionally introduce correlated features that are more physically compatible with QNN.
