• Abstract: Identifying and calibrating quantitative dynamical models for physical quantum systems is important for a variety of applications. Here we present a closed-loop Bayesian learning algorithm for estimating multiple unknown parameters in a dynamical model, using optimised experimental "probe" controls and measurement. The estimation algorithm is based on a Bayesian particle filter, and is designed to autonomously choose informationally-optimised probe experiments with which to compare to model predictions. We demonstrate the performance of the algorithm in both simulated calibration tasks and in an experimental single-qubit ion-trap system. Experimentally, we find that with 60x fewer samples, we exceed the precision of conventional calibration methods, delivering an approximately 93x improvement in efficiency (as quantified by the reduction of measurements required to achieve a target residual uncertainty and multiplied by the increase in accuracy). In simulated and experimental demonstrations, we see that successively longer pulses are selected as the posterior uncertainty iteratively decreases, leading to an exponential improvement in the accuracy of model parameters with the number of experimental queries.

  We present an online, Bayesian approach for quantum characterization of qutrit systems. Unlike most characterization protocols that provide point-estimates of the parameters, the proposed approach is able to estimate their probability distribution. We provide a mathematical proof of the theoretical identifiability of the model parameters and present conditions on the quantum state under which the parameters are identifiable.

  Distortion of the input fields in an experimental platform alters the model accuracy and disturbs the predicted dynamics. We present an effective method for estimating these distortions which is suitable for non-linear transfer functions of arbitrary lengths and magnitudes. We have successfully tested our approach for a numerical example of a single Rydberg atom system.

  Inferring the parameters of a model based on experimental observations is central to the scientific method. A particularly challenging setting is when the model is strongly indeterminate, i.e., when distinct sets of parameters yield identical observations. We present a method for cracking such indeterminacy by exploiting additional information conveyed by an auxiliary set of observations sharing global parameters.
