Abstract
Closed-loop control algorithms for real-time calibration of quantum processors require efficient filters that can estimate physical error parameters based on streams of measured quantum circuit outcomes. Development of such filters is complicated by the highly nonlinear relationship relationship between observed circuit outcomes and the magnitudes of elementary errors. In this work, we apply the extended Kalman filter to data from quantum gate set tomography to provide a streaming estimator of the both the system error model and its uncertainties. Our numerical examples indicate extended Kalman filtering can achieve similar performance to maximum likelihood estimation, but with dramatically lower computational cost. With our method, a standard laptop can process one- and two-qubit circuit outcomes and update gate set error model at rates comparable with current experimental execution.
