• Abstract: We propose a quantum error mitigation scheme for single-qubit measurement errors, particularly suited for one-way quantum computation. Contrary to well established error mitigation methods for circuit-based quantum computation, that require to run the circuits several times, our method is capable of mitigating measurement errors in real-time, during the processing measurements of the one-way computation. For that, an ancillary qubit register is entangled with the to-be-measured qubit and additionally measured afterwards. By using a voting protocol on all measurement outcomes, occurring measurement errors can be mitigated in real-time while the one-way computation continues. We provide an analytical expression for the probability to detect a measurement error in dependency of the error rate and the number of ancilla qubits. From this, we derive an estimate of the ancilla register size for a given measurement error rate and a required success probability to detect a measurement error. Additionally, we also consider the CNOT gate error in our mitigation method and investigate how this influences the probability to detect a measurement error. Finally, we show in proof-of-principle simulations, also considering a hardware noise model, that our method is capable of reducing the measurement errors significantly in a one-way quantum computation with only a small number of ancilla qubits.

  We introduce a new technique based on randomized compiling to transform errors in measurements into a simple form that removes particularly harmful effects. We show that our technique reduces generic errors in a computational basis measurement to act like a confusion matrix. We demonstrate that a simple and realistic noise model can cause errors that are harmful and difficult to model.

• Measurement based estimator scheme for continuous quantum error correction [52.77024349608834]
  Canonical discrete quantum error correction (DQEC) schemes use projective von Neumann measurements on stabilizers to discretize the error syndromes into a finite set. Quantum error correction (QEC) based on continuous measurement, known as continuous quantum error correction (CQEC), can be executed faster than DQEC and can also be resource efficient. We show that by constructing a measurement-based estimator (MBE) of the logical qubit to be protected, it is possible to accurately track the errors occurring on the physical qubits in real time.

  Quantum error mitigation (QEM) is a class of promising techniques for reducing the computational error of variational quantum algorithms. We consider a practical channel inversion strategy based on Monte Carlo sampling, which introduces additional computational error. We show that when the computational error is small compared to the dynamic range of the error-free results, it scales with the square root of the number of gates.
