Abstract
We present an error mitigation strategy composed of Echo Verification (EV) and Clifford Data Regression (CDR), the combination of which allows one to learn the effect of the quantum noise channel to extract error mitigated estimates for the expectation value of Pauli observables. We analyse the behaviour of the method under the depolarizing channel and derive an estimator for the depolarization rate in terms of the ancilla purity and postselection probability. We also highlight the sensitivity of this probability to noise, a potential bottleneck for the technique. We subsequently consider a more general noise channel consisting of arbitrary Pauli errors, which reveals a linear relationship between the error rates and the estimation of expectation values, suggesting the learnability of noise in EV by regression techniques. Finally, we present a practical demonstration of Echo Verified Clifford Data Regression (EVCDR) on a superconducting quantum computer and observe accurate results for the time evolution of an Ising model over spin-lattices consisting of up to 35 sites and circuit depths up to 173 entangling layers.
