Optimizing continuous-time quantum error correction for Markovian and non-Markovian noise models

Abstract

We present a protocol using machine learning (ML) to simultaneously optimize the quantum error-correcting code space and the corresponding recovery map in the framework of continuous-time quantum error correction. Given a Hilbert space and a noise process -- potentially correlated across both space and time -- the protocol identifies the optimal recovery strategy, measured by the average logical state fidelity. This approach enables the discovery of recovery schemes tailored to arbitrary device-level noise.
