Extending the Frontiers of QNLP Beyond English: Grammar-Sensitive Pipeline for Hindi Sentiment Classification Using Compositional Quantum Models

Gautami Sanjay Naik, Rishi Koushik Reddy Thippireddy, Naman Srivastava +4 more

Advancements in Natural Language Processing (NLP), whether on classical or quantum platforms, have predominantly focused on English due to its widespread use and abundant linguistic resources. Although English remains the most studied language in computational linguistics, Hindi, the third most spoken language worldwide after Mandarin, has received comparatively limited attention. Spoken primarily in India, Hindi differs significantly from English in its script, syntactic structure, and linguistic characteristics. Hindi uses the Devanagari script, exhibits rich morphological inflection, and follows a subject-object-verb (SOV) word order, unlike English's subject-verb-object (SVO) structure. Motivated by Hindi's linguistic complexity and its underrepresentation in Quantum Natural Language Processing (QNLP), we propose a grammar-aware QNLP pipeline for Hindi sentiment classification with a focus on sentential negation. We use a manually annotated Hindi sentiment dataset labeled as positive, negative, or neutral, and encode sentences using pregroup grammar types. Sentences are processed with Lambeq to generate quantum circuits using a novel negation-aware compositional grammar. Hybrid Quantum Neural Networks (HQNNs) are trained for both binary and ternary sentiment classification. Our results demonstrate effective sentiment classification and highlight the potential of compositional QNLP for morphologically rich languages.

Scaling Hindi Quantum Natural Language Processing through Automatic Pregroup Supertagging

Gautami Sanjay Naik, Krishna Bhatia, Mithun Paul Saint-Germain +1 more

Quantum Natural Language Processing (QNLP) uses pregroup grammars to translate grammatical structure into diagrammatic representations and quantum circuits. Recent Hindi QNLP work has shown that Hindi-specific pregroup grammars can support grammar-sensitive compositional models, but grammatical type assignment is still largely manual, limiting scalability. This paper formulates automatic Hindi pregroup supertagging as a token-level classification task. Using a manually annotated corpus of 380 Hindi sentences, we evaluate lexical, contextual, prompting-based, lexical-repair, and suffix/morphology-aware methods. Results show that simple lexical and contextual models are strong in this low-resource setting: contextual backoff achieves the best completed accuracy of 64.56\%, while raw Qwen2.5 prompting reaches only 11.65\%. Lexical repair raises LLM-assisted prediction to 64.08\%, demonstrating the value of constraining generative outputs with symbolic grammar knowledge. Diagnostic analysis further shows that seen and unambiguous tokens are much easier than unseen tokens, and suffix/morphology features improve karaka-token accuracy but not overall performance. These results show that automatic Hindi pregroup assignment is feasible and can reduce reliance on manual annotation in future multilingual QNLP pipelines.

Enabling Quantum Natural Language Processing for Hindi Language

Naman Srivastava, Gaurang Belekar, Gautami Sanjay Naik +2 more

Quantum Natural Language Processing (QNLP) is taking huge leaps in solving the shortcomings of classical Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques and moving towards a more "Explainable" NLP system. The current literature around QNLP focuses primarily on implementing QNLP techniques in sentences in the English language. In this paper, we propose to enable the QNLP approach to HINDI, which is the third most spoken language in South Asia. We present the process of building the parameterized quantum circuits required to undertake QNLP on Hindi sentences. We use the pregroup representation of Hindi and the DisCoCat framework to draw sentence diagrams. Later, we translate these diagrams to Parameterised Quantum Circuits based on Instantaneous Quantum Polynomial (IQP) style ansatz. Using these parameterized quantum circuits allows one to train grammar and topic-aware sentence classifiers for the Hindi Language.
