Quantum‑Enhanced A3C² Leverages Time‑Series Dynamic Clustering for Adaptive ETF Stock Picking
Traditional ETF selection and plain A3C reinforcement learning struggle with high‑dimensional features and static clustering, so the authors propose Q‑A3C², which embeds variational quantum circuits and time‑series dynamic clustering into the A3C framework, achieving a 17.09% cumulative return versus a 7.09% benchmark on S&P 500 components.
