New paper outlining my Julia package QuantumACES now out in the Journal of Open Source Software!
Just published in JOSS: 'QuantumACES.jl: design noise characterisation experiments for quantum computers' https://doi.org/10.21105/joss.07707

Why characterise noise in syndrome extraction circuits? One reason: directly improving quantum error correction!

In simulations of the surface code, we find that noise-aware decoding—calibrating the decoder with noise estimates—improves the code's error suppression factor.

My first paper—with @acdoherty.bsky.social and Robin Harper—is now out in PRX Quantum! More to come soon :)
