Better Together: IBM Researchers Cut Sampling Demands 63-Fold by Combining Quantum Error Detection And Mitigation

Insider Brief Quantum error correction may not simply replace error mitigation as quantum computers improve. In fact, the two methods could instead work together to make reliable computations possible with fewer resources, according to an IBM study. IBM researchers combined an error-detection protocol with a statistical error-mitigation technique and tested the approach on a superconducting […]
