• Abstract: Quantum machine learning (QML) is an emerging field with significant potential, yet it remains highly susceptible to noise, which poses a major challenge to its practical implementation. While various noise mitigation strategies have been proposed to enhance algorithmic performance, the impact of noise is not fully understood. In this work, we investigate the effects of amplitude and phase damping noise on a quantum reinforcement learning algorithm. Through analytical and numerical analysis, we assess how these noise sources influence the learning process and overall performance. Our findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the role of noise in quantum learning algorithms and suggest that, rather than being purely detrimental, unavoidable noise may present opportunities to enhance QML processes.

  The role of noise in Quantum Hypothesis Testing (QHT) has not been thoroughly explored. We devise and experimentally implement a noise-assisted QHT protocol in the setting of ultralow-field nuclear magnetic resonance spin systems. Our experimental results demonstrate that the success probability of QHT under the noisy dynamics can indeed surpass the ceiling set by unitary evolution alone.
