Enhancing quantum models of stochastic processes with error mitigation


Abstract in English

Error mitigation has been one of the recently sought after methods to reduce the effects of noise when computation is performed on a noisy near-term quantum computer. Interest in simulating stochastic processes with quantum models gained popularity after being proven to require less memory than their classical counterparts. With previous work on quantum models focusing primarily on further compressing memory, this work branches out into the experimental scene; we aim to bridge the gap between theoretical quantum models and practical use with the inclusion of error mitigation methods. It is observed that error mitigation is successful in improving the resultant expectation values. While our results indicate that error mitigation work, we show that its methodology is ultimately constrained by hardware limitations in these quantum computers.
