Quantum LEGO Learning: A Modular Design Principle for Hybrid Artificial Intelligence

  • 把经典网络当固定特征提取器,量子电路作可训练适配模块。
  • 在量子点分类任务中实现稳定优化,对量子比特数不敏感。
  • 适合想构建可复用、抗噪强的量子机器学习系统的研究者。

混合量子-经典学习模型日益融合神经网络与变分量子电路(VQCs),以利用互补的归纳偏置。然而,现有方法多依赖紧密耦合架构或任务特定编码器,限制了概念清晰度、通用性和跨学习场景的迁移能力。本文提出 Quantum LEGO Learning,一种模块化且架构无关的学习框架,将经典与量子组件视为可重用、可组合的学习模块,角色明确。预训练的经典神经网络作为冻结特征块,而VQC则作为在结构化表示上操作的可训练自适应模块。该分离设计在量子资源受限下实现高效学习,并为分析混合模型提供原则性抽象。我们构建了分块泛化理论,将学习误差分解为近似与估计两部分,明确刻画各模块复杂度与训练状态对整体性能的影响。该分析推广了以往张量网络特有结果,并识别出量子模块相较同规模经典头具有表征优势的条件。通过系统性的模块互换实验,我们在冻结特征提取器与量子/经典自适应头之间验证了该框架。量子点分类实验显示优化稳定、对量子比特数量不敏感,且对真实噪声具有鲁棒性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Hybrid quantum-classical learning models increasingly integrate neural networks with variational quantum circuits (VQCs) to exploit complementary inductive biases. However, many existing approaches rely on tightly coupled architectures or task-specific encoders, limiting conceptual clarity, generality, and transferability across learning settings. In this work, we introduce Quantum LEGO Learning, a modular and architecture-agnostic learning framework that treats classical and quantum components as reusable, composable learning blocks with well-defined roles. Within this framework, a pre-trained classical neural network serves as a frozen feature block, while a VQC acts as a trainable adaptive module that operates on structured representations rather than raw inputs. This separation enables efficient learning under constrained quantum resources and provides a principled abstraction for analyzing hybrid models. We develop a block-wise generalization theory that decomposes learning error into approximation and estimation components, explicitly characterizing how the complexity and training status of each block influence overall performance. Our analysis generalizes prior tensor-network-specific results and identifies conditions under which quantum modules provide representational advantages over comparably sized classical heads. Empirically, we validate the framework through systematic block-swap experiments across frozen feature extractors and both quantum and classical adaptive heads. Experiments on quantum dot classification demonstrate stable optimization, reduced sensitivity to qubit count, and robustness to realistic noise.
