Short article from The Independent covering a paper from Robin Harper, University of Sydney, talking about how to better predict and thus reduce noise.
The new breakthrough algorithm allows scientists to better know how many of those errors there should be, and where they might arise, which could be included within future devices to allow them to better correct errors. "This protocol opens myriad opportunities for novel diagnostic tools and practical applications," the researchers write in the new paper, pointing out that it could be used in a variety of ways to make quantum computers better at handling the noise they generate.
