The illustrative embodiments provide a method, system, and computer program product for quantum feature kernel alignment using a hybrid classical-quantum computing system. An embodiment of a method for hybrid classical-quantum decision maker training includes receiving a training data set. In an embodiment, the method includes selecting, by a first processor, a sampling of objects from the training set, each object represented by at least one vector.
In an embodiment, the method includes applying, by a quantum processor, a set of quantum feature maps to the selected objects, the set of quantum maps corresponding to a set of quantum kernels. In an embodiment, the method includes evaluating, by a quantum processor, a set of parameters for a quantum feature map circuit corresponding to at least one of the set of quantum feature maps.
