Do Quantum Transformers Help? A Systematic VQC Architecture Comparison on Tabular Benchmarks

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2604. 23931v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Variational quantum circuits (VQCs) are a leading approach to quantum machine learning on near-term devices, yet it remains unclear which circuit architecture yields the best accuracy-parameter trade-off on classical tabular data.

Quantum Adaptive Self-Attention for Quantum Transformer Models

arXiv:2504. 05336v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A recurring weakness in quantum machine learning (QML) is that reported ``quantum advantages'' are seldom tested against a \emph{capacity-matched} classical control, leaving it unclear whether a gain comes from the quantum substrate or from the architectural change that accompanies it.

QiT: Quantum-Inspired Transformer for Visual Recognition Task

QiT is a Quantum‑Inspired Transformer designed for visual recognition tasks. It replaces quantum neural network concepts with scalable classical operations: angle‑inspired encoding of image tokens, self‑attention over periodic features approximating quantum fidelity kernels, and gated multiplicative emulation of variational circuit interactions. The model achieves competitive performance on image‑classification benchmarks, matching a classical Transformer while avoiding the high runtime costs of simulated quantum models.

Classical $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ Models Match or Exceed Shallow Variational Quantum Circuits on Vision Benchmarks

arXiv:2608. 07822v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quaternion-valued neural networks and variational quantum circuits (VQCs) both derive local transformations from $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ geometry, yet their performance on classical supervised learning remains poorly understood.
