Image Classification Using CNN-QNN Hybrid Model with Optimized Correlated Features

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.

Scalable On-Hardware Training of Quantum Neural Networks and Application to Clinical Data Imputation

arXiv:2606. 03517v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training quantum neural networks (QNNs) on quantum hardware is currently bottlenecked by the cost of gradient estimation: standard parameter-shift methods require a number of circuit evaluations that grows quadratically with the number of trainable parameters, making hardware-based optimisation impractical beyond small system sizes.

Entropy Estimation in Multi-Qutrit Systems via Variational and Classical Neural Networks

arXiv:2606. 20504v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a systematic study of von Neumann entropy estimation in multi-qutrit quantum systems using two complementary approaches: variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) and classical convolutional neural networks (CNNs), evaluated using an ideal (noise-free) quantum simulator.

Explainable quantum-compressed machine learning for complex fluid flows

arXiv:2607. 21688v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine-learning surrogates of physical systems face a paradox: explainable models facing the challenge of expressivity to capture complex nonlinear flows, whereas expressive deep surrogates match high-fidelity simulations only through massive parameterisations that turn the learned dynamics into a black box.
