Hybrid quantum-classical computing offers a promising pathway to harness quantum advantages while mitigating the hardware limitations of noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. This work proposes a modular hybrid architecture that combines classical preprocessing, quantum-enhanced feature mapping through parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs), and adaptive classical optimization. The framework is designed to improve robustness and generalization of machine learning models in noisy environments, addressing critical issues such as overfitting, noise sensitivity, and hardware-induced errors. Experimental evaluations were conducted on benchmark datasets, including Iris, reduced-dimension MNIST, synthetic noisy XOR, Wine Quality, and Breast Cancer Wisconsin. The proposed model was tested under multiple noise models, such as Gaussian, salt-and-pepper, Poisson, and quantum-specific errors (bit-flip, phase-flip, and depolarizing), using 5-fold cross-validation and repeated trials for statistical rigor. Key performance metrics included Classification Accuracy (CA), Robustness Index (RI), and Training Stability (TS), with results reported as mean ± standard deviation and supported by paired t-tests (p < 0.05). Results demonstrate that the hybrid model consistently outperforms classical support vector machines (SVM) and standalone variational quantum classifiers (VQC) in noisy conditions, achieving smaller accuracy degradation and higher stability. The combination of quantum- enhanced feature mapping, optimizer synergy, and modular design is shown to be central to its resilience.
Background: The emergent need for scalable artificial intelligence (AI) models emphasizes the shortcomings of traditional machine learning in dealing with big, complicated datasets owing to computation and energy limitations. Objective: The architecture takes advantage of quantum encoding methods like amplitude and angle encoding for compact feature representation, with classical preprocessing providing compatibility and stability. Methods: To overcome these issues, this research introduces a Hybrid Quantum-Classical Machine Learning (HQML) framework that combines Quantum Variational Classifiers (QVCs) and Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks (QCNNs) with classical deep learning layers. Results: Experiments were performed on pre-curated datasets taken from the Scikit Machine Learning Repository, with hybrid models compared to classical Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The implementation was done with PennyLane using TensorFlow Quantum for compatibility with noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) machines. The comparative analysis identified that the suggested HQML model achieves significant performance gains, as classification accuracy increased from 73 percent in the baseline classical CNN to 98% in the hybrid model. Precision also went up from 77 to 96 percent, recall from 81 to 100 percent, and F1-score from 79 to 98 percent. These findings confirm the ability of the model to leverage quantum benefits for extracting complicated data distributions without losing stability through classical components. The findings confirm the viability of HQML to real-world finance, healthcare, and intelligent automation applications where scalability and precision matter. Conclusion: This research establishes that quantum-classical integration not only minimizes training overhead but also attains near-perfect classification efficiency with constrained qubit resources. The research aids in filling the gap between theoretical quantum potential and deployable practical AI, opening the door for next-generation quantum-boosted intelligence.
Quantum computing has emerged as one of the most influential paradigms capable of transforming computational processes that struggle under classical limitations. In recent years, hybrid quantum–classical algorithms have gained significant attention for their ability to leverage the strengths of both architectures, especially within the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) era.

Quantum Machine Learning (QML) is emerging as a promising technology for tackling complex computational challenges, although its practical implementation faces significant obstacles owed to the inherent noise in current quantum devices. This paper presents a hybrid architecture that combines classical and quantum elements for the development and training of QML models under noisy conditions. This research evaluates the impact of noise on superconducting systems through emulation. The study shows that, compared to noise-free configurations, certain noise levels tend to allow for a reduction in the number of qubits, thus simplifying the architecture of the quantum neural network, which has a direct impact on the computational cost and execution times. Experimental validation was performed by applying three biomedical datasets related to breast cancer detection. The experimental findings revealed that the variations in accuracy between noiseless configurations and those subjected to noisy conditions were minimal, with deviations ranging from 0.11% to 1.68%. Additionally, it was observed that the incorporation of noise during training contributed positively to the efficiency of the process for the datasets under test, achieving improvements in training execution times ranging from a factor of 1.61 to 4.39, when the proposed architecture was emulated on Qaptiva 802.
