Variational Phasor Circuits for Phase-Native Brain-Computer Interface Classification

We present the Variational Phasor Circuit (VPC), a deterministic classical learning architecture on the continuous $S^1$ unit-circle manifold. Inspired by variational quantum circuits, VPC replaces dense weight matrices with trainable phase shifts, local unitary mixing, and structured interference in the ambient complex space, giving a unified method for binary and multi-class classification of spatially distributed signals. We evaluate VPC on real motor-imagery electroencephalography (EEG) from the PhysioNet Motor Movement/Imagery database (10 subjects, Common Spatial Pattern features, subject-wise cross-validation), where it attains a mean decoding accuracy of $0.60$ -- the highest among standard brain--computer-interface baselines (linear discriminant analysis, logistic regression, RBF-SVM, and a multilayer perceptron) -- using an order of magnitude fewer parameters and the lowest cross-subject variance. We also characterize capacity honestly: with phase-only shifts and unitary mixing, VPC realizes a linear decision function in a fixed cosine/sine feature lifting, well matched to the largely separable band-power structure of EEG but unable to represent parity-type functions, a ceiling that depth does not raise. These results position unit-circle phase interference as a parameter-efficient alternative to dense neural computation for signal classification, and motivate VPC both as a standalone classifier and a front-end for hybrid phasor-quantum systems.
