New techniques to improve zero-noise extrapolation on superconducting qubits — •Kathrin Koenig1,2, Thomas Wellens1, and Finn Reinecke1,2 — 1Fraunhofer IAF, Freiburg, Germany — 2University of Freiburg, Germany
Currently available quantum computing hardware suffers from errors due to environmental influences, nearest-neighbour interactions and imperfect gate operations. To achieve robust quantum computing, there are techniques like error mitigation by zero-noise extrapolation [1]. We propose a method for estimating the strength of the error occurring in a given quantum circuit in order to improve the result of this extrapolation. Furthermore, the impact of gate errors on observable expectation values can be reduced by noise tailoring, which converts arbitrary errors into stochastic Pauli errors [2]. Using these techniques, we elaborate on the implementation of error mitigation on a superconducting quantum computer and its impact on the computation of expectation values.
