Variational Phasor Circuits for Phase-Native Brain-Computer Interface Classification
We present the Variational Phasor Circuit (VPC), a deterministic classical learning architecture on the continuous $S^1$ unit-circle manifold. Inspired by variational quantum circuits, VPC replaces dense weight matrices with trainable phase shifts, local unitary mixing, and structured interference in the ambient complex space, giving a unified method for binary and multi-class classification of spatially distributed signals. We evaluate VPC on real motor-imagery electroencephalography (EEG) from the PhysioNet Motor Movement/Imagery database (10 subjects, Common Spatial Pattern features, subject-wise cross-validation), where it attains a mean decoding accuracy of $0.60$ -- the highest amon...
