Abstract

Large language models have recently shown potential in bridging the gap between classical machine learning and quantum machine learning. However, the lack of standardized, high-quality datasets and robust translation frameworks limits progress in this domain. We introduce Q-Bridge, an LLM-guided code translation framework that systematically converts CML implementations into executable QML variants. Our approach builds on a self-involving pipeline that iteratively expands a verified seed codebase into a large-scale dataset, CML-2-QML, integrating verifiable and unverifiable code pairs. The Q-Bridge model is fine-tuned using supervised LoRA adaptation for scalable and memory-efficient training, achieving faithful and interpretable quantum code generation across diverse architectures. Empirical analysis confirms the feasibility of direct CML-to-QML translation and reveals consistent structural alignment between classical and quantum paradigms. Case studies further demonstrate that Q-Bridge can maintain deterministic correctness and also enable creative architectural exploration. This work establishes the first reproducible framework and dataset for LLM-driven quantum code translation, offering a foundation for scalable quantum AI development.

Benchmarking the Benchmarks for Quantum Code Generation with LLMs

Yunhe Feng, Xiaokun Yang, Kewei Sha +1 more

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as quantum coding copilots, assisting researchers by generating complex programs for frameworks such as Qiskit, PennyLane, and OpenQASM. However, accurately evaluating the practical utility of these models remains a significant challenge. Existing benchmarks are highly fragmented, ranging from syntax-centric unit tests to simulator- and hardware-aware metrics, making results difficult to compare across different languages and hardware targets. To address this fragmentation, this paper systematically reviews recent evaluation suites and post-training methodologies for quantum code generation. We distill current evaluation criteria into four practical dimensions: syntax and API validity, semantic and physical correctness, resource and hardware feasibility, and execution-based feedback. Building upon these dimensions, we present a unified taxonomy that maps current benchmarks to emerging model adaptation techniques, specifically retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), fine-tuning, multi-agent workflows, and reinforcement learning (RL). Our analysis highlights a clear shift: moving away from prompt-only baselines and toward agentic workflows driven by quantum-verifiable rewards. This shift directly targets the semantic gap between superficially compilable code and physically executable quantum programs. In addition, we identify key research opportunities-such as standardized semantic metrics and integration with quantum error correction-aimed at fostering a more reproducible, verifiable, and hardware-grounded ecosystem for automated quantum software development.

Quantum Circuit-Based Learning Models: Bridging Quantum Computing and Machine Learning

Fan Fan, Yilei Shi, Mihai Datcu +5 more

Machine Learning (ML) has been widely applied across numerous domains due to its ability to automatically identify informative patterns from data for various tasks. The availability of large-scale data and advanced computational power enables the development of sophisticated models and training strategies, leading to state-of-the-art performance, but it also introduces substantial challenges. Quantum Computing (QC), which exploits quantum mechanisms for computation, has attracted growing attention and significant global investment as it may address these challenges. Consequently, Quantum Machine Learning (QML), the integration of these two fields, has received increasing interest, with a notable rise in related studies in recent years. We are motivated to review these existing contributions regarding quantum circuit-based learning models for classical data analysis and highlight the identified potentials and challenges of this technique. Specifically, we focus not only on QML models, both kernel-based and neural network-based, but also on recent explorations of their integration with classical machine learning layers within hybrid frameworks. Moreover, we examine both theoretical analysis and empirical findings to better understand their capabilities, and we also discuss the efforts on noise-resilient and hardware-efficient QML that could enhance its practicality under current hardware limitations. In addition, we cover several emerging paradigms for advanced quantum circuit design and highlight the adaptability of QML across representative application domains. This study aims to provide an overview of the contributions made to bridge quantum computing and machine learning, offering insights and guidance to support its future development and pave the way for broader adoption in the coming years.

Quantum machine learning: A comprehensive survey of models, tools, and challenges

Taha M. Mahmoud, Marwa R. Hassan, Shenson Joseph +2 more

Abstract Quantum Machine Learning (QML) is an emerging interdisciplinary field that merges quantum computing with classical machine learning (ML) to enhance computational efficiency, scalability, and accuracy in data-driven tasks. By leveraging quantum properties such as superposition, entanglement, and quantum parallelism, QML has the potential to solve complex problems that are intractable for classical models. This survey provides a comprehensive, systematic review of recent advancements in QML, conducted following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines and covering fundamental encoding techniques that enable quantum computers to process classical data, as well as essential tools, datasets, and evaluation metrics used in quantum model development. Furthermore, it explores various QML approaches, including supervised, semi-supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning, alongside quantum deep learning (QDL) models such as Quantum Neural Networks (QNNs) and Variational Quantum Circuits (VQCs). The paper also discusses the challenges in QML, including hardware limitations, scalability issues, and the need for improved quantum error correction. A dual-axis taxonomy simultaneously classifies algorithms by learning paradigm and quantum-classical integration level – a structure not found in prior surveys. The survey also covers Quantum Transfer Learning, Quantum Graph Neural Networks, and hardware-aware encoding selection, and introduces the first structured adversarial robustness taxonomy and Explainable QML treatment in a comprehensive QML survey. Together, these contributions position this work as both a reference and a methodological guide for advancing QML research and applications.
