Quantum-Train: rethinking hybrid quantum-classical machine learning in the model compression perspective
摘要
We propose Quantum-Train (QT), a hybrid quantum-classical framework for training neural networks that reduces trainable parameter complexity while maintaining competitive performance. QT addresses/avoids three critical challenges in quantum machine learning (QML): (1) the cost of data encoding into quantum circuits, (2) the large parameter footprint of classical models, and (3) the quantum resource demands during inference. The method leverages a parameterized quantum neural network (QNN) to generate classical model weights via a learnable mapping model, achieving compression from M parameters to
