• Abstract: Zero-noise extrapolation (ZNE) stands as the most widespread quantum error mitigation technique in order to aim the recovery of noise-free expectation values of observables of interest by means of Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) machines. Recently, Otten and Gray proposed a multidimensional generalization of polynomial ZNE for systems where there is not a tunable global noise source [Phys. Rev. A \textbf{99,} 012338 (2019)]. Specifically, the authors refer to multiqubit systems where each of the qubits experiences several noise processes with different rates, i.e. a non-identically distributed noise model. The authors proposed a hypersurface method for mitigating such noise, which is technically correct. While effective, the proposed method presents an unbearable experiment repetition overhead, making it impractical, at least from the perspective of quantum computing. In this comment, we show that the traditional extrapolation techniques can be applied for such non-identically distributed noise setting consisted of many different noise sources, implying that the measurement overhead is reduced considerably. For doing so, we clarify what it is meant by a tunable global noise source in the context of ZNE, concept that we consider important to be clarified for a correct understanding about how and why these methods work.

  We test the ability of readout error mitigation to correct realistic noise found in systems composed of quantum two-level objects (qubits) By treating readout error mitigation in the context of state tomography the method becomes largely readout mode-, architecture-, noise source-, and quantum state-independent. We identify noise sources for which readout error mitigation worked well, and observed decreases in readout by a factor of up to 30.

  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. This paper presents a novel ZNE approach that does not require circuit folding or noise scaling to mitigate depolarizing and/or decoherence noise.

  In the era of quantum computing without full fault-tolerance, it is essential to suppress noise effects via the quantum error mitigation techniques to enhance the computational power of the quantum devices. One of the most effective noise-agnostic error mitigation schemes is the generalized quantum subspace expansion (GSE) method. We propose the fault-subspace method, which constructs an error-mitigated quantum state with copies of quantum states with different noise levels.

  It is widely assumed that the optimal noise distribution should be made equal to the data distribution, as in Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) We turn to Noise-Contrastive Estimation which grounds this self-supervised task as an estimation problem of an energy-based model of the data. We soberly conclude that the optimal noise may be hard to sample from, and the gain in efficiency can be modest compared to choosing the noise distribution equal to the data's.

  This paper aims to devise a generalized maximum likelihood (ML) estimator to robustly detect signals with unknown noise statistics. In practice, there is little or even no statistical knowledge on the system noise, which in many cases is non-Gaussian, impulsive and not analyzable. Our framework is driven by an unsupervised learning approach, where only the noise samples are required.

  Noise is one of the major obstacles to obtain an optimal solution in quantum annealers. We generalize the conventionally used Hamiltonian, i.e., the transverse field Hamiltonian, by introducing an ancillary system. We confirm numerically that the method is effective for a kind of noise usually encountered in the case of flux qubit.

  Noise in gradient descent provides a crucial implicit regularization effect for training over parameterized models. We show that parameter-dependent noise -- induced by mini-batches or label perturbation -- is far more effective than Gaussian noise. Our analysis reveals that parameter-dependent noise introduces a bias towards local minima with smaller noise variance, whereas spherical Gaussian noise does not.
