BEIJING, Sept, 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WiMi) (“WiMi” or the “Company”), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality (“AR”) Technology provider, announces that it is researching the application of quantum machine learning to image classification. Its researched hybrid quantum neural network architecture, through synergistic innovation between classical and quantum approaches, will enhance the efficiency and accuracy of image classification. The fusion of quantum computing and machine learning provides technical support for breakthroughs in image classification technology. The superposition property of quantum mechanics enables each qubit to carry multiple state information simultaneously, while the entanglement property realizes non-local correlations between qubits. The combination of these two grants quantum algorithms a natural parallel computing capability, allowing for an exponential reduction in computational complexity when processing high-dimensional data. Quantum machine learning (QML), as a cutting-edge field that integrates quantum mechanical principles with classical machine learning, is expected to significantly reduce computational power consumption while maintaining or even improving classification accuracy by constructing quantized feature mapping and processing mechanisms. Among them, the hybrid quantum neural network (HQNN), by virtue of its synergistic optimization of classical architectures and quantum algorithms, has become the most promising and practically deployable technical path in the NISQ era—it avoids the dependence of fully quantum neural networks on large-scale fault-tolerant quantum hardware, while fully leveraging the parallel advantages of quantum computing through the introduction of parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs).
Current NISQ-era quantum hardware faces technical constraints such as limited number of qubits and prominent noise interference, making it difficult for purely quantum circuits to process large-scale real-world image data. The hybrid quantum neural network architecture researched by WiMi, through the innovative fusion of classical convolutional layers and parallel quantum layers, constructs a hybrid computing system adapted to NISQ devices, achieving precise complementarity between the advantages of classical computing power and quantum parallel capabilities. The core design logic of this architecture lies in modular decomposition, which not only addresses the processing capability limitations of quantum hardware but also maximizes the efficiency advantages of quantum computing. The architecture consists of two major core modules: the classical convolutional block and the hybrid dense part, forming a complete optimization chain from data preprocessing to prediction output. The classical convolutional block undertakes the core tasks of feature extraction and dimension compression. Through multi-layer convolution operations and pooling mechanisms, it performs layer-by-layer feature abstraction on the input image data, filters out redundant information, and retains key semantic features, ultimately transforming high-dimensional image data into low-dimensional feature vectors suitable for processing by the quantum layer. This design not only resolves the input dimension limitations of NISQ devices but also, by leveraging the mature feature extraction capabilities of classical convolution, lays a high-quality data foundation for subsequent quantum layer processing, avoiding the computational waste and noise amplification problems that would arise from quantum circuits directly processing raw image data.
Adopting the synergistic design of classical fully connected layers and parallel parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs), it undertakes the model’s final prediction task. Unlike traditional serial quantum layer designs, WiMi enables multiple quantum circuits to synchronously execute feature processing tasks through parallelized PQC deployment, leveraging the quantum superposition and entanglement properties to achieve parallel computation of multiple groups of features, significantly reducing the overall computation time. The implementation of synergistic training between the quantum layer and the classical fully connected layer is achieved through quantum-classical hybrid optimization strategies such as the parameter-shift rule, which feeds back the measurement results of the quantum circuits to the classical optimizer, realizing joint iterative optimization of quantum gate parameters and classical layer weights, thereby improving the model’s convergence stability and generalization capability.
Compared to traditional classical CNNs and single quantum models, the parallel PQC design and classical-quantum synergistic processing mechanism, while reducing the model parameter scale, significantly enhance the processing speed of high-dimensional features, making it particularly suitable for real-time classification scenarios involving massive image data. In addition, the feature preprocessing capability of classical convolutional layers complements the noise resistance characteristics of quantum circuits, enabling the model to maintain stable classification performance even in complex data environments and under quantum hardware noise interference. Beyond that, the modular design of the architecture allows flexible adaptation to NISQ devices of different scales. With the iteration of quantum hardware technology, performance can be continuously upgraded by increasing the number of qubits and optimizing the PQC structure.
The hybrid quantum neural network architecture researched by WiMi not only provides a practically feasible solution for breaking through the computational power bottleneck in image classification technology, but also demonstrates its technological foresight in the field of quantum machine learning. In the future, WiMi will continue to deeply cultivate innovations in quantum machine learning algorithms and architectures, harnessing the breakthrough power of quantum technology to lead the artificial intelligence industry into a new era of efficient computing.
