Evaluation of Variational Quantum Classifiers (VQC) for Cyberattack Detection in the NISQ Era

We investigate the structural limits of Variational Quantum Classifiers (VQC) for network anomaly detection in the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) era. Using the official 20% research subset of NSL-KDD, we train a 4-qubit classifier that embeds 16 principal components by...
