Navigating the dynamic noise landscape of variational quantum algorithms with QISMET

2022 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Transient errors from the dynamic NISQ noise landscape are challenging to comprehend and are especially detrimental to classes of applications that are iterative and/or long-running, and therefore their timely mitigation is important for quantum advantage …

CAFQA: A Classical Simulation Bootstrap for Variational Quantum Algorithms

2022

Classical computing plays a critical role in the advancement of quantum frontiers in the NISQ era. In this spirit, this work uses classical simulation to bootstrap Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQAs). VQAs rely upon the iterative …

Dynamic Resource Allocation with Quantum Error Detection

2024 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Quantum processing units (QPUs) are highly heterogeneous in terms of physical qubit performance. To add even more complexity, drift in quantum noise landscapes has been well-documented. This makes resource allocation a challenging problem whenever a …
