Abstract

Variational Quantum Circuits (VQCs) have emerged as a cornerstone of hybrid quantum–classical algorithms designed to harness the computational potential of near-term quantum devices. By combining parameterized quantum gates with classical optimization, VQCs provide a flexible framework for tackling machine learning, chemistry, and optimization problems intractable for classical methods. This review comprehensively overviews VQC design principles, ansatz structures, optimization strategies, and real-world applications. Furthermore, we discuss fundamental challenges such as barren plateaus, the expressibility–trainability trade-off, and current noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) hardware limitations. Finally, we highlight emerging directions that could enable scalable, noise-resilient, and physically interpretable variational quantum models for future quantum computing applications

Abstract

Accurately predicting the lifetime of lithium-ion batteries during early charge–discharge cycles remains a significant challenge due to the nonlinear and weakly expressed degradation dynamics in the initial stages of operation. Classical machine learning (ML) models—although effective in pattern recognition—often face limitations in modeling complex correlations within small, high-dimensional datasets. To address these challenges, this study proposes a Hybrid Quantum–Classical Machine Learning (HQML) framework that integrates a Variational Quantum Circuit (VQC) as a quantum feature encoder with a Gradient Boosting Regressor (GBR) as the classical learner. The proposed approach is implemented using the Qiskit Aer simulator on the MIT Battery Degradation Dataset (124 cells, 42 engineered features). By encoding multi-source degradation descriptors (voltage, capacity, temperature, internal resistance) into Hilbert space via amplitude and angle encoding, the HQML model captures intricate nonlinear feature interactions that are inaccessible to conventional kernels. Experimental results demonstrate that the hybrid model achieves an RMSE of 93 cycles and an R² of 0.94, outperforming the best classical baseline (SVM + Wrapper selection, RMSE = 115, R² = 0.90). Furthermore, quantum observables analysis reveals interpretable correlations between entanglement strengths and physical degradation indicators. These results highlight the potential of quantum machine learning as a powerful paradigm for high-fidelity battery prognostics in the early-life regime.

Abstract

Corrosion inhibition efficiency (IE%) prediction plays a central role in the computational discovery of high-performance organic inhibitors. Classical machine learning has shown promising results; however, its performance often deteriorates when learning non-linear interactions between quantum chemical descriptors. Meanwhile, quantum machine learning (QML) provides enhanced expressivity through quantum feature mapping but remains limited by NISQ-era hardware. In this study, we propose a Hybrid Quantum Neural Network (HQNN) integrating classical dense layers with variational quantum circuits (VQC) to predict the inhibition efficiency of organic corrosion inhibitors. Using a curated dataset of 660 molecules with DFT descriptors, the HQNN achieves an RMSE of 3.41 and R² of 0.958, outperforming classical regressors and pure VQC. The results demonstrate that hybrid quantum models offer a balanced trade-off between quantum advantage and practical feasibility in materials informatics.

Abstract

Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks (QCNNs) have emerged as one of the most promising architectures in Quantum Machine Learning (QML), enabling hierarchical quantum feature extraction and offering potential advantages over classical CNNs in expressivity and scalability. This study presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) on QCNN development from 2019 to 2025, covering theoretical foundations, model architectures, noise resilience, benchmark performance, and applications in materials informatics, chemistry, image recognition, quantum phase classification, and cybersecurity. The SLR followed PRISMA guidelines, screening 214 publications and selecting 47 primary studies. The review finds that QCNNs consistently outperform classical baselines in small-data and high-dimensional regimes due to quantum feature maps and entanglement-driven locality. Significant limitations include noise sensitivity, limited qubit availability, and a lack of standardized datasets for benchmarking. The novelty of this work lies in providing the first comprehensive synthesis of QCNN research across theory, simulations, and real-hardware deployment, offering a roadmap for research gaps and future directions. The findings confirm that QCNNs are strong candidates for NISQ-era applications, especially in physics-informed learning.

Abstract

This study explores Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCNN) starting from foundational quantum operations, such as the Rx gate for encoding MNIST image data into quantum states. We implemented quantum convolutional and pooling layers using one_unitary and two_unitary circuits, enabling effective feature extraction and dimensionality reduction while preserving critical information. Expressibility analysis revealed varying capabilities across different one_unitary circuits, with Rx, Ry, and Rz combinations demonstrating promising results akin to Haar random states. The proposed QCNN model exhibited robust performance metrics (accuracy: 95.98%, precision: 94.44%, recall: 96.59%, F1-score: 0.9551, AUC: 0.9604) in classification tasks, supported by efficient convergence during optimization. Future directions include expanding QCNN applications to handle more complex datasets and optimizing architectures to enhance quantum machine learning capabilities, particularly in image processing. This study underscores the potential of QCNNs in advancing quantum computing applications in neural network architectures.

Abstract

The prediction of thermal stability (TS) in zinc-based metal–organic frameworks (Zn-MOFs) is often challenged by experimental cost and distributional heterogeneity in materials datasets. This study proposes a median-based robust voting ensemble to model the TS of 151 Zn-MOF samples using four structural descriptors, nN, nZn, Het, and Lig. The framework integrates five robust linear estimators and is benchmarked against a linear kernel Support Vector Regression (SVR) model to evaluate predictive stability and generalization performance. The proposed ensemble demonstrates superior test performance (R² = 0.9986; RMSE = 0.0023) compared to SVR (R² = 0.9492; RMSE = 0.0213), indicating enhanced robustness under heterogeneous data conditions. Feature importance analysis identifies nitrogen coordination density and heteroatomic environment as the dominant contributors to TS prediction, while zinc center quantity and ligand topology exhibit comparatively minor influence. These findings confirm that median-based robust aggregation improves predictive reliability and provides chemically interpretable insight, offering a data-driven approach for the rational design and screening of thermally stable Zn-MOF materials.
