Adaptive filtering is a powerful class of control theoretic concepts useful in extracting information from noisy data sets or performing forward prediction in time for a dynamic system. The broad utilization of the associated algorithms makes them attractive targets for similar problems in the quantum domain. To date, however, the construction of adaptive filters for quantum systems has typically been carried out in terms of stochastic differential equations for weak, continuous quantum measurements, as used in linear quantum systems such as optical cavities. Discretized measurement models are not as easily treated in this framework, but are frequently employed in quantum information systems leveraging projective measurements. This paper presents a detailed analysis of several technical innovations that enable classical filtering of discrete projective measurements, useful for adaptively learning system-dynamics, noise properties, or hardware performance variations in classically correlated measurement data from quantum devices. In previous work we studied a specific case of this framework, in which noise and calibration errors on qubit arrays could be efficiently characterized in space; here, we present a generalized analysis of filtering in quantum systems and demonstrate that the traditional convergence properties of nonlinear classical filtering hold using single-shot projective measurements. These results are important early demonstrations indicating that a range of concepts and techniques from classical nonlinear filtering theory may be applied to the characterization of quantum systems involving discretized projective measurements, paving the way for broader adoption of control theoretic techniques in quantum technology.
Indistinguishable photons are imperative for advanced quantum communication networks. Indistinguishability is difficult to obtain because of environment-induced photon transformations and loss imparted by communication channels, especially in noisy s
We show that a quantum state may be represented as the sum of a joint probability and a complex quantum modification term. The joint probability and the modification term can both be observed in successive projective measurements. The complex modific
The free-free opacity in plasmas is fundamental to our understanding of energy transport in stellar interiors and for inertial confinement fusion research. However, theoretical predictions in the challenging dense plasma regime are conflicting and th
We use discrete-event simulation on a digital computer to study two different models of experimentally realizable quantum walks. The simulation models comply with Einstein locality, are as realistic as the one of the simple random walk in that the pa
The action of qubit channels on projective measurements on a qubit state is used to establish an equivalence between channels and properties of generalized measurements characterized by bias and sharpness parameters. This can be interpreted as shifti
