Hybrid Quantum Neural Networks: Optimizing Computational Performance in Deep Learning

Shrabani Pramanick, Diganta Bhattacharyya

Hybrid quantum neural networks represent a novel approach to enhancing computational performance in deep learning tasks. By integrating quantum-inspired techniques with classical neural network architectures, these models aim to leverage the computational advantages of quantum computing while retaining the scalability and interpretability of classical methods. This paper explores the design and implementation of hybrid quantum neural networks, focusing on their ability to optimize computational efficiency in deep learning tasks. We present a comprehensive review of quantum-inspired optimization techniques and their application in neural network training. Through empirical evaluations and comparative studies, we demonstrate the effectiveness of hybrid quantum neural networks in improving training speed, convergence, and generalization performance. This work contributes to the advancement of efficient deep learning methodologies and lays the groundwork for further exploration of quantum-inspired approaches in machine learning.

Deep quanvolutional neural networks with enhanced trainability and gradient propagation

Muhammad Kashif, Muhammad Shafique

In this paper, we explore methods to enhance the performance of one of the frequently used variants of Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks, known as Quanvolutional Neural Networks (QuNNs) by introducing trainable quanvolutional layers and addressing the challenges associated with training multi-layered or deep QuNNs. Traditional QuNNs mostly rely on static (non-trainable) quanvolutional layers, limiting their feature extraction capabilities. Our approach enables the training of these layers, significantly improving the scalability and learning potential of QuNNs. However, multi-layered deep QuNNs face difficulties in gradient-based optimization due to limited gradient flow across all the layers of the network. To overcome this, we propose Residual Quanvolutional Neural Networks (ResQuNNs), which utilize residual learning by adding skip connections between quanvolutional layers. These residual blocks enhance gradient flow throughout the network, facilitating effective training in deep QuNNs, thus enabling deep learning in QuNNs. Moreover, we provide empirical evidence on the optimal placement of these residual blocks, demonstrating how strategic configurations improve gradient flow and lead to more efficient training. Our findings represent a significant advancement in quantum deep learning, opening new possibilities for both theoretical exploration and practical quantum computing applications.
