Quantum-classical hybrid models based on error correction for time series forecasting

arXiv:2606. 15213v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Time series forecasting largely benefits from combining the strengths of different models, especially using a scheme where a model corrects another model by capturing supplementary patterns from forecasting errors.

A Quantum Variational Approach to Prototypical Recurrent Unit

The paper presents a lightweight Quantum Prototypical Recurrent Unit (QPRU) that uses far fewer parameters than classical recurrent models like LSTM and GRU, as well as quantum variants such as QLSTM and QGRU. Despite its compactness, the QPRU matches state‑of‑the‑art forecasting performance. It offers structural and practical benefits, notably improved scalability and a reduced parameter count.

Exponential quantum advantage in processing massive classical data

The paper demonstrates that a small quantum computer of polylogarithmic size can achieve large‑scale classification and dimension reduction on massive classical data, while any classical machine achieving the same performance would need exponentially larger size. It shows that classical machines even if exponentially larger still require superpolynomially more samples and time. The authors provide evidence from real‑world applications such as single‑cell RNA sequencing and movie review sentiment analysis, achieving four to six orders of magnitude reduction in size with fewer than 60 logical qubits.

Recursive Quantum Long Short-Term Memory for Stable Short-Horizon Temperature Forecasting

The paper introduces a recursive quantum long short-term memory (QLSTM) architecture and compares it to a standard QLSTM for one-step-ahead daily temperature forecasting. Using Toronto weather data and identical training settings, the recursive model consistently reaches near-optimal test loss earlier, achieves lower mean absolute error and root mean squared error, and shows a smaller generalization gap across input windows of 8, 16, and 32 days over 20 random seeds. These findings suggest that recursive quantum feature transformations can enhance stability and out-of-sample performance in compact hybrid quantum–classical temporal models.
