• Abstract summary: fidelity estimation for entangled states is an essential building block for quality control and error detection in quantum networks. Quantum networks often encounter heterogeneous and correlated noise, leading to excessive uncertainty in the estimated fidelity. This paper proposes a credible interval for fidelity that is valid in the presence of general noise.

• Abstract: Fidelity estimation for entangled states constitutes an essential building block for quality control and error detection in quantum networks. Nonetheless, quantum networks often encounter heterogeneous and correlated noise, leading to excessive uncertainty in the estimated fidelity. In this paper, the uncertainty associated with the estimated fidelity under conditions of general noise is constrained by jointly employing random sampling, a thought experiment, and Bayesian inference, resulting in a credible interval for fidelity that is valid in the presence of general noise. The proposed credible interval incorporates all even moments of the posterior distribution to enhance estimation accuracy. Factors influencing the estimation accuracy are identified and analyzed. Specifically, the issue of excessive measurements is addressed, emphasizing the necessity of properly determining the measurement ratio for fidelity estimation under general noise conditions.

  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.
