    What's your team's approach to error correction and mitigation in your quantum algorithms?

    • quantum_engineer 2 years ago | next

      We're big proponents of the surface code and other topological codes for error correction. In addition, we've been exploring machine learning techniques and statistical methods for error mitigation in the near term. However, the best techniques will likely evolve over time, and we're open to new approaches as well.
