Hybrid Quantum-Classical NLP Classification with Compact Semantic Representations: An Experimental Analysis of Representation Compression
Large language and sentence-embedding models provide rich semantic representations, but their high dimensionality poses a challenge for near-term quantum machine learning (QML), where quantum circuits can process only a limited number of input features. We investigate a hybrid quantum-classical pipeline that transforms high-dimensional sentence embeddings into compact representations for variational quantum classification. The workflow combines a pretrained sentence-embedding model, dimensionality reduction, angle encoding, a variational quantum circuit (VQC), and a classical decision layer. We systematically compare principal component analysis (PCA), neighborhood components analysis (NC...
