• Abstract: Variational quantum learning faces practical challenges in the noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) era. Parameterized quantum circuit (PQC) models suffer from statistical uncertainty due to finite-shot measurements and are highly sensitive to quantum noise, while purely classical approximations like neural quantum states (NQS) lack access to genuine quantum correlations and are limited in scalability. This work introduces Hybrid Parameterized Quantum States (HPQS), a general-purpose modeling framework that interpolates between quantum and classical parameterizations. HPQS combines PQC-based measurements with neural estimators via a blending mechanism and postprocessing functions, enabling enhanced, shot-efficient evaluation under hardware constraints. We demonstrate HPQS across three representative quantum learning tasks: (1) Expectation-based QML, where HPQS yields higher classification accuracy than PQC-only and NQS-only baselines under limited quantum measurements. (2) Quantum-Train, where HPQS generates the entire parameter set of classical networks using polylogarithmic trainable variables; and (3) Quantum Parameter Adaptation (QPA), where HPQS produces LoRA adapter parameters for fine-tuning large language models like GPT-2 and Gemma-2 with improved perplexity under low-shot conditions; Together, these results position HPQS as a scalable, noise-resilient approach for variational quantum learning, compatible with both current NISQ hardware and future fault-tolerant architectures.
