• Abstract: Experimental realization of stabilizer-based quantum error correction (QEC) codes that would yield superior logical qubit performance is one of the formidable task for state-of-the-art quantum processors. A major obstacle towards realizing this goal is the large footprint of QEC codes, even those with a small distance. We propose a circuit based on the minimal distance-3 QEC code, which requires only 5 data qubits and 5 ancilla qubits, connected in a ring with iSWAP gates implemented between neighboring qubits. Using a density-matrix simulation, we show that, thanks to its smaller footprint, the proposed code has a lower logical error rate than Surface-17 for similar physical error rates. We also estimate the performance of a neural network-based error decoder, which can be trained to accommodate the error statistics of a specific quantum processor by training on experimental data.

  We introduce decoders that are both fast and accurate, and can be used with a wide class of quantum error correction codes. Our decoders, named belief-matching and belief-find, exploit all noise information and thereby unlock higher accuracy demonstrations of QEC. We find that the decoders led to a much higher threshold and lower qubit overhead in the tailored surface code with respect to the standard, square surface code.
