• Abstract: When noisy intermediate scalable quantum (NISQ) devices are applied in information processing, all of the stages through preparation, manipulation, and measurement of multipartite qubit states contain various types of noise that are generally hard to be verified in practice. In this work, we present a scheme to deal with unknown quantum noise and show that it can be used to mitigate errors in measurement readout with NISQ devices. Quantum detector tomography that identifies a type of noise in a measurement can be circumvented. The scheme applies single-qubit operations only, that are with relatively higher precision than measurement readout or two-qubit gates. A classical post-processing is then performed with measurement outcomes. The scheme is implemented in quantum algorithms with NISQ devices: the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm and a quantum amplitude estimation algorithm in IBMQ yorktown and IBMQ essex. The enhancement in the statistics of the measurement outcomes is presented for both of the algorithms with NISQ devices.

  We introduce an implementation of Bayesian measurement error mitigation tailored for multiqubit experiments on near-term quantum devices. Our approach leverages complete information from the readout signal, which is available before any binary state assignment of the qubits. We benchmark our protocol on actual quantum computers with superconducting qubits, where the readout signal encodes the measurement information in the IQ clouds before qubit state assignment.

  We present a general algorithm for performing simultaneous tomography of quantum states and measurement noise. Our method is based on the analysis of the properties of the linear operator space induced by unitary operations. We show that this gauge freedom is unavoidable in the general case, but this degeneracy can be broken using prior knowledge on the state or noise properties.

  Variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) offer the most promising path to obtaining quantum advantages via noisy processors. gate noise due to imperfections and decoherence affects the gradient estimates by introducing a bias. Quantum error mitigation (QEM) techniques can reduce the estimation bias without requiring any increase in the number of qubits. QEM can reduce the number of required iterations, but only as long as the quantum noise level is sufficiently small.

  We present an approach where the quantum computation is supplemented by a classical result. Taking advantage of its anticipation also leads to a new type of quantum measurements, which we call anticipative. In an anticipative quantum measurement the combination of the results from classical and quantum computations happens only in the end.

  In quantum information processing quantum operations are often processed alongside measurements which result in classical data. Non-unitary dynamical processes can take place on the system, for which common quantum channel descriptions fail to describe the time evolution. Quantum measurements are correctly treated by means of so-called quantum instruments capturing both classical outputs and post-measurement quantum states.
