• Abstract: We consider the estimation of parameters encoded in the measurement record of a continuously monitored quantum system in the jump unraveling. This unraveling picture corresponds to a single-shot scenario, where information is continuously gathered. Here, it is generally difficult to assess the precision of the estimation procedure via the Fisher Information due to intricate temporal correlations and memory effects. In this paper we provide a full set of solutions to this problem. First, for multi-channel renewal processes we relate the Fisher Information to an underlying Markov chain and derive a easily computable expression for it. For non-renewal processes, we introduce a new algorithm that combines two methods: the monitoring operator method for metrology and the Gillespie algorithm which allows for efficient sampling of a stochastic form of the Fisher Information along individual quantum trajectories. We show that this stochastic Fisher Information satisfies useful properties related to estimation in the single-shot scenario. Finally, we consider the case where some information is lost in data compression/post-selection, and provide tools for computing the Fisher Information in this case. All scenarios are illustrated with instructive examples from quantum optics and condensed matter.

  AQCs allow to implement problems of research interest, which has sparked the development of quantum representations for computer vision tasks. In this work, we explore the potential of using this information for probabilistic balanced k-means clustering. Instead of discarding non-optimal solutions, we propose to use them to compute calibrated posterior probabilities with little additional compute cost. This allows us to identify ambiguous solutions and data points, which we demonstrate on a D-Wave AQC on synthetic tasks and real visual data.

  We prove two results concerning the estimation of parameters encoded in a memoryful process. First, we show that for processes with finite Markov order, the Fisher information is always linear in the number of outcomes. Second, we prove with suitable examples that correlations do not necessarily enhance the metrological precision.
