Quantum state tomography aims to determine the quantum state of a system from measured data and is an essential tool for quantum information science. When dealing with continuous variable quantum states of light, tomography is often done by measuring the field amplitudes at different optical phases using homodyne detection. The quadrature-phase homodyne measurement outputs a continuous variable, so to reduce the computational cost of tomography, researchers often discretize the measurements. We show that this can be done without significantly degrading the fidelity between the estimated state and the true state. This paper studies different strategies for determining the histogram bin widths. We show that computation time can be significantly reduced with little loss in the fidelity of the estimated state when the measurement operators corresponding to each histogram bin are integrated over the bin width.

Maximum likelihood quantum state tomography yields estimators that are consistent, provided that the likelihood model is correct, but the maximum likelihood estimators may have bias for any finite data set. The bias of an estimator is the difference
between the expected value of the estimate and the true value of the parameter being estimated. This paper investigates bias in the widely used maximum likelihood quantum state tomography. Our goal is to understand how the amount of bias depends on factors such as the purity of the true state, the number of measurements performed, and the number of different bases in which the system is measured. For that, we perform numerical experiments that simulate optical homodyne tomography under various conditions, perform tomography, and estimate bias in the purity of the estimated state. We find that estimates of higher purity states exhibit considerable bias, such that the estimates have lower purity than the true states.
I propose an iterative expectation maximization algorithm for reconstructing a quantum optical ensemble from a set of balanced homodyne measurements performed on an optical state. The algorithm applies directly to the acquired data, bypassing the int
ermediate step of calculating marginal distributions. The advantages of the new method are made manifest by comparing it with the traditional inverse Radon transformation technique.
We introduce maximum likelihood fragment tomography (MLFT) as an improved circuit cutting technique for running clustered quantum circuits on quantum devices with a limited number of qubits. In addition to minimizing the classical computing overhead
of circuit cutting methods, MLFT finds the most likely probability distribution for the output of a quantum circuit, given the measurement data obtained from the circuits fragments. We demonstrate the benefits of MLFT for accurately estimating the output of a fragmented quantum circuit with numerical experiments on random unitary circuits. Finally, we show that circuit cutting can estimate the output of a clustered circuit with higher fidelity than full circuit execution, thereby motivating the use of circuit cutting as a standard tool for running clustered circuits on quantum hardware.
Straightforward methods for adapting the familiar chi^2 statistic to histograms of discrete events and other Poisson distributed data generally yield biased estimates of the parameters of a model. The bias can be important even when the total number
of events is large. For the case of estimating a microcalorimeters energy resolution at 6 keV from the observed shape of the Mn K-alpha fluorescence spectrum, a poor choice of chi^2 can lead to biases of at least 10% in the estimated resolution when up to thousands of photons are observed. The best remedy is a Poisson maximum-likelihood fit, through a simple modification of the standard Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm for chi^2 minimization. Where the modification is not possible, another approach allows iterative approximation of the maximum-likelihood fit.
Maximum simulated likelihood estimation of mixed multinomial logit (MMNL) or probit models requires evaluation of a multidimensional integral. Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) methods such as shuffled and scrambled Halton sequences and modified Latin hypercub
e sampling (MLHS) are workhorse methods for integral approximation. A few earlier studies explored the potential of sparse grid quadrature (SGQ), but this approximation suffers from negative weights. As an alternative to QMC and SGQ, we looked into the recently developed designed quadrature (DQ) method. DQ requires fewer nodes to get the same level of accuracy as of QMC and SGQ, is as easy to implement, ensures positivity of weights, and can be created on any general polynomial spaces. We benchmarked DQ against QMC in a Monte Carlo study under different data generating processes with a varying number of random parameters (3, 5, and 10) and variance-covariance structures (diagonal and full). Whereas DQ significantly outperformed QMC in the diagonal variance-covariance scenario, it could also achieve a better model fit and recover true parameters with fewer nodes (i.e., relatively lower computation time) in the full variance-covariance scenario. Finally, we evaluated the performance of DQ in a case study to understand preferences for mobility-on-demand services in New York City. In estimating MMNL with five random parameters, DQ achieved better fit and statistical significance of parameters with just 200 nodes as compared to 1000 QMC draws, making DQ around five times faster than QMC methods.
