• Abstract summary: Zero-noise extrapolation (ZNE) is an increasingly popular technique for mitigating errors in noisy quantum computations. We propose several improvements to noise scaling and extrapolation, the two key components in the technique. Benchmarks of our techniques show error reductions of 18X to 24X over non-mitigated circuits. This work is a self-contained introduction to the practical use of ZNE by quantum programmers.

• Abstract: Zero-noise extrapolation (ZNE) is an increasingly popular technique for mitigating errors in noisy quantum computations without using additional quantum resources. We review the fundamentals of ZNE and propose several improvements to noise scaling and extrapolation, the two key components in the technique. We introduce unitary folding and parameterized noise scaling. These are digital noise scaling frameworks, i.e. one can apply them using only gate-level access common to most quantum instruction sets. We also study different extrapolation methods, including a new adaptive protocol that uses a statistical inference framework. Benchmarks of our techniques show error reductions of 18X to 24X over non-mitigated circuits and demonstrate ZNE effectiveness at larger qubit numbers than have been tested previously. In addition to presenting new results, this work is a self-contained introduction to the practical use of ZNE by quantum programmers.

  A range of quantum error mitigation techniques has been proposed to address noise in quantum computers. ZNE involves increasing the noise levels in a circuit and then using extrapolation to infer the zero noise case from the noisy results.
