Hybrid quantum recurrent neural network for remaining useful life prediction of turbofan engines

Accurate remaining useful life (RUL) estimation underpins safe operation and cost-effective maintenance of aerospace propulsion systems. We propose a Hybrid Quantum Recurrent Neural Network (HQRNN) for jet-engine RUL forecasting on the NASA C-MAPSS FD001 benchmark. The HQRNN stacks Quantum Long Short-Term Memory (QLSTM) layers, replacing each LSTM gate's linear transformation with a Quantum Depth-Infused (QDI) circuit; this is followed by classical dense layers. Quantum and hybrid quantum-classical methods for turbofan RUL prediction are still at an early stage. Our study is therefore among the first to evaluate a gate-based QLSTM hybrid at matched parameter counts, comparing it against classical and joint state-of-the-art models on this benchmark and complementing that comparison with a circuit-level analysis of the quantum layer. Encoding the gate signals in a quantum feature space is intended to help the network represent high-frequency degradation patterns with fewer trainable parameters than a matched classical counterpart. The HQRNN improves mean RMSE and mean MAE by about 5% over matched-parameter stacked-LSTM RNNs across 10 random seeds, and attains a test RMSE of 15.46, outperforming Random Forest, CNN, and MLP baselines. ZX calculus, Fisher information, and Fourier analyses indicate that the QDI circuit is compact, trainable, and expressive. Advanced joint deep-learning models still outperform the stand-alone HQRNN, indicating that quantum-enhanced recurrent modules are best deployed as components within composite prognostics pipelines rather than stand-alone predictors.

Hybrid Quantum Neural Networks: Theory, Implementations, and Applications

Artificial intelligence has been transformed by deep neural networks, yet the search for new learning architectures continues. Quantum machine learning offers one such direction, and hybrid quantum neural networks, which combine classical neural-network components with quantum information processing units, have emerged as a practical framework for near-term quantum technologies. However, the rapid development of the field across diverse architectures, benchmarks and hardware assumptions makes it difficult to assess the utility of various proposals, identify where genuine advantages may arise, and determine how practitioners can use these models. While recent benchmarks caution that such gains have not yet been demonstrated at scale, theoretical work has identified tasks on which quantum models hold provable advantages, and hybrid approaches have delivered promising results on practical problems using deliberately compact quantum components and substantially fewer trainable parameters. Here, we review hybrid quantum neural networks for the machine-learning and quantum-machine-learning communities. We summarize their main theoretical and methodological foundations, survey some of the most promising architectures developed so far, and examine their implementation challenges and reported performance. By consolidating these perspectives, this review provides a structured view of the state of the field and helps identify promising paths for future research and application-driven development.

Hybrid Fourier Neural Operator for Surrogate Modeling of Laser Processing with a Quantum-Circuit Mixer

Data-driven surrogates can replace expensive multiphysics solvers for parametric PDEs, yet building compact, accurate neural operators for three-dimensional problems remains challenging: in Fourier Neural Operators, dense mode-wise spectral channel mixing scales linearly with the number of retained Fourier modes, inflating parameter counts and limiting real-time deployability. We introduce HQ-LP-FNO, a hybrid quantum-classical FNO that replaces a configurable fraction of these dense spectral blocks with a compact, mode-shared variational quantum circuit mixer whose parameter count is independent of the Fourier mode budget. A parameter-matched classical bottleneck control is co-designed to provide a rigorous evaluation framework. Evaluated on three-dimensional surrogate modeling of high-energy laser processing, coupling heat transfer, melt-pool convection, free-surface deformation, and phase change, HQ-LP-FNO reduces trainable parameters by 15.6% relative to a classical baseline while lowering phase-fraction mean absolute error by 26% and relative temperature MAE from 2.89% to 2.56%. A sweep over the quantum-channel budget reveals that a moderate VQC allocation yields the best temperature metrics across all tested configurations, including the fully classical baseline, pointing toward an optimal classical-quantum partitioning. The ablation confirms that mode-shared mixing, naturally implemented by the VQC through its compact circuit structure, is the dominant contributor to these improvements. A noisy-simulator study under backend-calibrated noise from ibm-torino confirms numerical stability of the quantum mixer across the tested shot range. These results demonstrate that VQC-based parameter-efficient spectral mixing can improve neural operator surrogates for complex multiphysics problems and establish a controlled evaluation protocol for hybrid quantum operator learning in practice.

A Fast and Generalizable Fourier Neural Operator-Based Surrogate for Melt-Pool Prediction in Laser Processing

High-fidelity simulations of laser welding capture complex thermo-fluid phenomena, including phase change, free-surface deformation, and keyhole dynamics, however their computational cost limits large-scale process exploration and real-time use. In this work we present the Laser Processing Fourier Neural Operator (LP-FNO), a Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) based surrogate model that learns the parametric solution operator of various laser processes from multiphysics simulations generated with FLOW-3D WELD (registered trademark). Through a novel approach of reformulating the transient problem in the moving laser frame and applying temporal averaging, the system results in a quasi-steady state setting suitable for operator learning, even in the keyhole welding regime. The proposed LP-FNO maps process parameters to three-dimensional temperature fields and melt-pool boundaries across a broad process window spanning conduction and keyhole regimes using the non-dimensional normalized enthalpy formulation. The model achieves temperature prediction errors on the order of 1% and intersection-over-union scores for melt-pool segmentation over 0.9. We demonstrate that a LP-FNO model trained on coarse-resolution data can be evaluated on finer grids, yielding accurate super-resolved predictions in mesh-converged conduction regimes, whereas discrepancies in keyhole regimes reflect unresolved dynamics in the coarse-mesh training data. These results indicate that the LP-FNO provides an efficient surrogate modeling framework for laser welding, enabling prediction of full three-dimensional fields and phase interfaces over wide parameter ranges in just tens of milliseconds, up to a hundred thousand times faster than traditional Finite Volume multi-physics software.

Multi-stream physics hybrid networks for solving Navier-Stokes equations

Understanding and solving fluid dynamics equations efficiently remains a fundamental challenge in computational physics. Traditional numerical solvers and physics-informed neural networks struggle to capture the full range of frequency components in partial differential equation solutions, limiting their accuracy and efficiency. Here, we propose the Multi-stream Physics Hybrid Network, a novel neural architecture that integrates quantum and classical layers in parallel to improve the accuracy of solving fluid dynamics equations, namely ''Kovasznay flow'' problem. This approach decomposes the solution into separate frequency components, each predicted by independent Parallel Hybrid Networks, simplifying the training process and enhancing performance. We evaluated the proposed model against a comparable classical neural network, the Multi-stream Physics Classical Network, in both data-driven and physics-driven scenarios. Our results show that the Multi-stream Physics Hybrid Network achieves a reduction in root mean square error by 36% for velocity components and 41% for pressure prediction compared to the classical model, while using 24% fewer trainable parameters. These findings highlight the potential of hybrid quantum-classical architectures for advancing computational fluid dynamics.

Predictive control of blast furnace temperature in steelmaking with hybrid depth-infused quantum neural networks

Accurate prediction and stabilization of blast furnace temperatures are crucial for optimizing the efficiency and productivity of steel production. Traditional methods often struggle with the complex and non-linear nature of the temperature fluctuations within blast furnaces. This paper proposes a novel approach that combines hybrid quantum machine learning with pulverized coal injection control to address these challenges. By integrating classical machine learning techniques with quantum computing algorithms, we aim to enhance predictive accuracy and achieve more stable temperature control. For this we utilized a unique prediction-based optimization method. Our method leverages quantum-enhanced feature space exploration and the robustness of classical regression models to forecast temperature variations and optimize pulverized coal injection values. Our results demonstrate a significant improvement in prediction accuracy over 25 percent and our solution improved temperature stability to +-7.6 degrees of target range from the earlier variance of +-50 degrees, highlighting the potential of hybrid quantum machine learning models in industrial steel production applications.

Photovoltaic power forecasting using quantum machine learning

Accurate forecasting of photovoltaic power is essential for reliable grid integration, yet remains difficult due to highly variable irradiance, complex meteorological drivers, site geography, and device-specific behavior. Although contemporary machine learning has achieved successes, it is not clear that these approaches are optimal: new model classes may further enhance performance and data efficiency. We investigate hybrid quantum neural networks for time-series forecasting of photovoltaic power and introduce two architectures. The first, a Hybrid Quantum Long Short-Term Memory model, reduces mean absolute error and mean squared error by more than 40% relative to the strongest baselines evaluated. The second, a Hybrid Quantum Sequence-to-Sequence model, once trained, it predicts power for arbitrary forecast horizons without requiring prior meteorological inputs and achieves a 16% lower mean absolute error than the best baseline on this task. Both hybrid models maintain superior accuracy when training data are limited, indicating improved data efficiency. These results show that hybrid quantum models address key challenges in photovoltaic power forecasting and offer a practical route to more reliable, data-efficient energy predictions.

Hybrid quantum physics-informed neural networks for simulating computational fluid dynamics in complex shapes

Finding the distribution of the velocities and pressures of a fluid by solving the Navier-Stokes equations is a principal task in the chemical, energy, and pharmaceutical industries, as well as in mechanical engineering and the design of pipeline systems. With existing solvers, such as OpenFOAM and Ansys, simulations of fluid dynamics in intricate geometries are computationally expensive and require re-simulation whenever the geometric parameters or the initial and boundary conditions are altered. Physics-informed neural networks are a promising tool for simulating fluid flows in complex geometries, as they can adapt to changes in the geometry and mesh definitions, allowing for generalization across fluid parameters and transfer learning across different shapes. We present a hybrid quantum physics-informed neural network that simulates laminar fluid flows in 3D Y-shaped mixers. Our approach combines the expressive power of a quantum model with the flexibility of a physics-informed neural network, resulting in a 21% higher accuracy compared to a purely classical neural network. Our findings highlight the potential of machine learning approaches, and in particular hybrid quantum physics-informed neural network, for complex shape optimization tasks in computational fluid dynamics. By improving the accuracy of fluid simulations in complex geometries, our research using hybrid quantum models contributes to the development of more efficient and reliable fluid dynamics solvers.

Quantum machine learning for image classification

Image classification, a pivotal task in multiple industries, faces computational challenges due to the burgeoning volume of visual data. This research addresses these challenges by introducing two quantum machine learning models that leverage the principles of quantum mechanics for effective computations. Our first model, a hybrid quantum neural network with parallel quantum circuits, enables the execution of computations even in the noisy intermediate-scale quantum era, where circuits with a large number of qubits are currently infeasible. This model demonstrated a record-breaking classification accuracy of 99.21% on the full MNIST dataset, surpassing the performance of known quantum-classical models, while having eight times fewer parameters than its classical counterpart. Also, the results of testing this hybrid model on a Medical MNIST (classification accuracy over 99%), and on CIFAR-10 (classification accuracy over 82%), can serve as evidence of the generalizability of the model and highlights the efficiency of quantum layers in distinguishing common features of input data. Our second model introduces a hybrid quantum neural network with a Quanvolutional layer, reducing image resolution via a convolution process. The model matches the performance of its classical counterpart, having four times fewer trainable parameters, and outperforms a classical model with equal weight parameters. These models represent advancements in quantum machine learning research and illuminate the path towards more accurate image classification systems.

Hybrid quantum ResNet for car classification and its hyperparameter optimization

Image recognition is one of the primary applications of machine learning algorithms. Nevertheless, machine learning models used in modern image recognition systems consist of millions of parameters that usually require significant computational time to be adjusted. Moreover, adjustment of model hyperparameters leads to additional overhead. Because of this, new developments in machine learning models and hyperparameter optimization techniques are required. This paper presents a quantum-inspired hyperparameter optimization technique and a hybrid quantum-classical machine learning model for supervised learning. We benchmark our hyperparameter optimization method over standard black-box objective functions and observe performance improvements in the form of reduced expected run times and fitness in response to the growth in the size of the search space. We test our approaches in a car image classification task and demonstrate a full-scale implementation of the hybrid quantum ResNet model with the tensor train hyperparameter optimization. Our tests show a qualitative and quantitative advantage over the corresponding standard classical tabular grid search approach used with a deep neural network ResNet34. A classification accuracy of 0.97 was obtained by the hybrid model after 18 iterations, whereas the classical model achieved an accuracy of 0.92 after 75 iterations.

Benchmarking simulated and physical quantum processing units using quantum and hybrid algorithms

Powerful hardware services and software libraries are vital tools for quickly and affordably designing, testing, and executing quantum algorithms. A robust large-scale study of how the performance of these platforms scales with the number of qubits is key to providing quantum solutions to challenging industry problems. This work benchmarks the runtime and accuracy for a representative sample of specialized high-performance simulated and physical quantum processing units. Results show the QMware simulator can reduce the runtime for executing a quantum circuit by up to 78% compared to the next fastest option for algorithms with fewer than 27 qubits. The AWS SV1 simulator offers a runtime advantage for larger circuits, up to the maximum 34 qubits available with SV1. Beyond this limit, QMware can execute circuits as large as 40 qubits. Physical quantum devices, such as Rigetti's Aspen-M2, can provide an exponential runtime advantage for circuits with more than 30 qubits. However, the high financial cost of physical quantum processing units presents a serious barrier to practical use. Moreover, only IonQ's Harmony quantum device achieves high fidelity with more than four qubits. This study paves the way to understanding the optimal combination of available software and hardware for executing practical quantum algorithms.

Hybrid quantum neural network for drug response prediction

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. It is caused by a variety of genetic mutations, which makes every instance of the disease unique. Since chemotherapy can have extremely severe side effects, each patient requires a personalized treatment plan. Finding the dosages that maximize the beneficial effects of the drugs and minimize their adverse side effects is vital. Deep neural networks automate and improve drug selection. However, they require a lot of data to be trained on. Therefore, there is a need for machine-learning approaches that require less data. Hybrid quantum neural networks were shown to provide a potential advantage in problems where training data availability is limited. We propose a novel hybrid quantum neural network for drug response prediction, based on a combination of convolutional, graph convolutional, and deep quantum neural layers of 8 qubits with 363 layers. We test our model on the reduced Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer dataset and show that the hybrid quantum model outperforms its classical analog by 15% in predicting IC50 drug effectiveness values. The proposed hybrid quantum machine learning model is a step towards deep quantum data-efficient algorithms with thousands of quantum gates for solving problems in personalized medicine, where data collection is a challenge.
