Topological quantum error-correcting codes are a promising candidate for building fault-tolerant quantum computers. Decoding topological codes optimally, however, is known to be a computationally hard problem. Various decoders have been proposed that achieve approximately optimal error thresholds. Due to practical constraints, it is not known if there exists an obvious choice for a decoder. In this paper, we introduce a framework which can combine arbitrary decoders for any given code to significantly reduce the logical error rates. We rely on the crucial observation that two different decoding techniques, while possibly having similar logical error rates, can perform differently on the same error syndrome. We use machine learning techniques to assign a given error syndrome to the decoder which is likely to decode it correctly. We apply our framework to an ensemble of Minimum-Weight Perfect Matching (MWPM) and Hard-Decision Re-normalization Group (HDRG) decoders for the surface code in the depolarizing noise model. Our simulations show an improvement of 38.4%, 14.6%, and 7.1% over the pseudo-threshold of MWPM in the instance of distance 5, 7, and 9 codes, respectively. Lastly, we discuss the advantages and limitations of our framework and applicability to other error-correcting codes. Our framework can provide a significant boost to error correction by combining the strengths of various decoders. In particular, it may allow for combining very fast decoders with moderate error-correcting capability to create a very fast ensemble decoder with high error-correcting capability.

Foliated quantum codes are a resource for fault-tolerant measurement-based quantum error correction for quantum repeaters and for quantum computation. They represent a general approach to integrating a range of possible quantum error correcting codes
into larger fault-tolerant networks. Here we present an efficient heuristic decoding scheme for foliated quantum codes, based on message passing between primal and dual code sheets. We test this decoder on two different families of sparse quantum error correcting code: turbo codes and bicycle codes, and show reasonably high numerical performance thresholds. We also present a construction schedule for building such code states.
Belief-propagation (BP) decoders play a vital role in modern coding theory, but they are not suitable to decode quantum error-correcting codes because of a unique quantum feature called error degeneracy. Inspired by an exact mapping between BP and de
ep neural networks, we train neural BP decoders for quantum low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with a loss function tailored to error degeneracy. Training substantially improves the performance of BP decoders for all families of codes we tested and may solve the degeneracy problem which plagues the decoding of quantum LDPC codes.
We introduce a purely graph-theoretical object, namely the coding clique, to construct quantum errorcorrecting codes. Almost all quantum codes constructed so far are stabilizer (additive) codes and the construction of nonadditive codes, which are pot
entially more efficient, is not as well understood as that of stabilizer codes. Our graphical approach provides a unified and classical way to construct both stabilizer and nonadditive codes. In particular we have explicitly constructed the optimal ((10,24,3)) code and a family of 1-error detecting nonadditive codes with the highest encoding rate so far. In the case of stabilizer codes a thorough search becomes tangible and we have classified all the extremal stabilizer codes up to 8 qubits.
In this paper, based on the nonbinary graph state, we present a systematic way of constructing good non-binary quantum codes, both additive and nonadditive, for systems with integer dimensions. With the help of computer search, which results in many
interesting codes including some nonadditive codes meeting the Singleton bounds, we are able to construct explicitly four families of optimal codes, namely, $[[6,2,3]]_p$, $[[7,3,3]]_p$, $[[8,2,4]]_p$ and $[[8,4,3]]_p$ for any odd dimension $p$ and a family of nonadditive code $((5,p,3))_p$ for arbitrary $p>3$. In the case of composite numbers as dimensions, we also construct a family of stabilizer codes $((6,2cdot p^2,3))_{2p}$ for odd $p$, whose coding subspace is {em not} of a dimension that is a power of the dimension of the physical subsystem.
We present a general formalism for quantum error-correcting codes that encode both classical and quantum information (the EACQ formalism). This formalism unifies the entanglement-assisted formalism and classical error correction, and includes encodin
g, error correction, and decoding steps such that the encoded quantum and classical information can be correctly recovered by the receiver. We formally define this kind of quantum code using both stabilizer and symplectic language, and derive the appropriate error-correcting conditions. We give several examples to demonstrate the construction of such codes.
