Magnitude Is All You Need? Rethinking Phase in Quantum Encoding of Complex SAR Data

ArXi:2604.14229v1 Announce Type: cross Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data is inherently complex-valued, while quantum machine learning (QML) models naturally operate in complex Hilbert spaces. This apparent alignment suggests that incorporating both magnitude and phase information into quantum encoding should improve performance in SAR Automatic Target Recognition
