Structured Unitary Tensor Network Representations for Circuit-Efficient Quantum Data Encoding

The paper introduces Tensor Network-based Quantum Data Encoding (TNQE), a framework that uses structured unitary tensor network representations to encode classical data into quantum states efficiently. TNQE decomposes each input into tensor cores and compiles them into encoding circuits via two core-to-circuit strategies, with learnable block unitaries ensuring trainability while maintaining unitarity. The method achieves significantly shallower circuits—down to 0.04× the depth of amplitude encoding—and scales to high‑resolution images, demonstrating practical feasibility on real quantum hardware.

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.
