Abstract :Nowadays, with the discovery of the power and potential of quantum computers, developing and understanding quantum-based deep learning models has become an important research area. This study investigates Quantum Transfer Learning and Quantum Hybrid Learning models that involve feature extraction and training processes using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Vision Transformer (ViT). The study aims to explore the potential advantages and differences of quantum deep learning techniques. It is envisioned that quantum computing can provide significant advantages in terms of computational speed and efficiency, especially in complex and large-scale data sets. Therefore, this study will contribute to a better understanding of the practical applications and potential impacts of quantum deep learning techniques. In this study, we evaluate the performance of four different quantum deep learning architectures using two different datasets. The classifiers used are the pre-trained ResNet-50 with a kernel size of 5x5 and the state-of-the-art CaiT-24-XXS-224 (CaiT) transducers. Optimization was performed with Adam optimizer using the cross entropy loss function. A total of eight models were trained, each with ten iterations. Accuracy (Acc), balanced accuracy (BA), overall F𝛽 (F_beta) macro score F1 and F2, Matthew\\\'s Correlation Coefficient (MCC), sensitivity (Sens) and specificity (Spec) were used as performance measures.
