Low-Overhead Quantum Error Correction with Boundary-Connected Planar Modules

Oscar Higgott, Hasan Sayginel, Francisco J. H. Heras +11

Realizing practical quantum computers requires quantum error correction, but the most widely implemented approach, the planar surface code, demands a substantial physical qubit ove…

A scalable and real-time neural decoder for topological quantum codes

Andrew W. Senior, Thomas Edlich, Francisco J. H. Heras +21

Fault-tolerant quantum computing will require error rates far below those achievable with physical qubits. Quantum error correction (QEC) bridges this gap, but depends on decoders…

Reinforcement Learning Control of Quantum Error Correction

Volodymyr Sivak, Alexis Morvan, Michael Broughton +296

Quantum error correction (QEC) is the primary strategy for protecting a quantum computer from the environment. Its prerequisite is that errors must remain sufficiently rare, which…
