• Abstract: Measurement fidelity matrices (MFMs) (also called error kernels) are a natural way to characterize state preparation and measurement errors in near-term quantum hardware. They can be employed in post processing to mitigate errors and substantially increase the effective accuracy of quantum hardware. However, the feasibility of using MFMs is currently limited as the experimental cost of determining the MFM for a device grows exponentially with the number of qubits. In this work we present a scalable way to construct approximate MFMs for many-qubit devices based on cumulant expansion. Our method can also be used to characterize various types of correlation error.

  Quantum measurements are a fundamental component of quantum computing. On modern-day quantum computers, measurements can be more error prone than quantum gates. We show that measurement errors can be tailored into a simple error model using randomized compiling.

  We study coherent errors on a quantum hardware platform using a transverse field Ising model Hamiltonian as a sample user application. We identify inter-day and intra-day qubit calibration drift and the impacts of quantum circuit placement on groups of qubits in different physical locations on the processor. This paper also discusses how these measurements can provide a better understanding of these types of errors and how they may improve efforts to validate the accuracy of quantum computations.
