Title: Quantum error mitigation on noisy quantum computers
Abstract:
Error-mitigation techniques improve computational performance (with respect to noise) using minimal overhead in quantum resources by relying on a mixture of quantum sampling and classical post-processing techniques. In this talk I will provide a brief overview of error mitigation techniques and a hands-on introduction to an open-source package for error-mitigation in quantum computation, Mitiq [1,2], which implements zero-noise extrapolation and soon probabilistic error cancellation [3].
