Artificial neural networks bridge input data into output results by approximately encoding the function that relates them. This is achieved after training the network with a collection of known inputs and results leading to an adjustment of the neuron connections and biases. In the context of quantum detection schemes, neural networks find a natural playground. In particular, in the presence of a target, a quantum sensor delivers a response, i.e., the input data, which can be subsequently processed by a neural network that outputs the target features. We demonstrate that adequately trained neural networks enable to characterize a target with minimal knowledge of the underlying physical model, in regimes where the quantum sensor presents complex responses, and under a significant shot noise due to a reduced number of measurements. We exemplify the method with a development for $^{171}$Yb$^{+}$ atomic sensors. However, our protocol is general, thus applicable to arbitrary quantum detection scenarios.

We propose to use neural networks to estimate the rates of coherent and incoherent processes in quantum systems from continuous measurement records. In particular, we adapt an image recognition algorithm to recognize the patterns in experimental sign als and link them to physical quantities. We demonstrate that the parameter estimation works unabatedly in the presence of detector imperfections which complicate or rule out Bayesian filter analyses.
We propose a machine learning framework for parameter estimation of single mode Gaussian quantum states. Under a Bayesian framework, our approach estimates parameters of suitable prior distributions from measured data. For phase-space displacement an d squeezing parameter estimation, this is achieved by introducing Expectation-Maximization (EM) based algorithms, while for phase parameter estimation an empirical Bayes method is applied. The estimated prior distribution parameters along with the observed data are used for finding the optimal Bayesian estimate of the unknown displacement, squeezing and phase parameters. Our simulation results show that the proposed algorithms have estimation performance that is very close to that of Genie Aided Bayesian estimators, that assume perfect knowledge of the prior parameters. Our proposed methods can be utilized by experimentalists to find the optimum Bayesian estimate of parameters of Gaussian quantum states by using only the observed measurements without requiring any knowledge about the prior distribution parameters.
We develop generalized bounds for quantum single-parameter estimation problems for which the coupling to the parameter is described by intrinsic multi-system interactions. For a Hamiltonian with $k$-system parameter-sensitive terms, the quantum limit scales as $1/N^k$ where $N$ is the number of systems. These quantum limits remain valid when the Hamiltonian is augmented by any parameter independent interaction among the systems and when adaptive measurements via parameter-independent coupling to ancillas are allowed.
With an ever-expanding ecosystem of noisy and intermediate-scale quantum devices, exploring their possible applications is a rapidly growing field of quantum information science. In this work, we demonstrate that variational quantum algorithms feasib le on such devices address a challenge central to the field of quantum metrology: The identification of near-optimal probes and measurement operators for noisy multi-parameter estimation problems. We first introduce a general framework which allows for sequential updates of variational parameters to improve probe states and measurements and is widely applicable to both discrete and continuous-variable settings. We then demonstrate the practical functioning of the approach through numerical simulations, showcasing how tailored probes and measurements improve over standard methods in the noisy regime. Along the way, we prove the validity of a general parameter-shift rule for noisy evolutions, expected to be of general interest in variational quantum algorithms. In our approach, we advocate the mindset of quantum-aided design, exploiting quantum technology to learn close to optimal, experimentally feasible quantum metrology protocols.
In satellite-based free-space continuous-variable QKD (CV-QKD), the parameter estimation for the atmospheric channel fluctuations due to the turbulence effects and attenuation is crucial for analyzing and improving the protocol performance. In this p aper, compressive sensing (CS) theory is applied to free-space CV-QKD to achieve the channel parameter estimation with low computational complexity and small amount of data. According to CS theory, the possibility of the sparse representation for free-space channel is analyzed and the two types of sparse reconstruction models for the channel parameters are constructed combining with the stability of the sub-channels. The most part of variable for parameter estimation is saved by using the model relying on the variables in the quantum signals, while all the variables can be used to generate the secret key by using the model relying on the second-order statistics of the variables. The methods are well adapted for the cases with the limited communication time since a little or no variable is sacrificed for parameter estimation. Finally, simulation results are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
