Evolving Hybrid Quantum-Classical Architectures for Image Classification

Hybrid quantum classical neural networks integrate parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) with established deep learning architectures, but their performance depends strongly on the choice of quantum circuit architecture, a choice that remains largely manual. Most existing approaches rely on hand-designed or fixed circu...

Financially Guided Deep Portfolio Optimization

This work proposes an end-to-end framework that directly optimizes differentiable surrogates of key financial metrics (Sharpe ratio, Omega ratio, Conditional Value-at-Risk, and risk parity), allowing neural networks to learn portfolio weights via backpropagation, outperforming the equal-weight portfolio, S&P 500, and t...

Uncertainty-Driven Replay Memory for Reinforcement Learning

Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed uncertainty-aware replay buffer enables an RL agent to obtain higher rewards during training compared to other existing uncertainty-aware RL frameworks.
