This research addresses the critical bottleneck of high-dimensional parameter optimization in quantum gate calibration by introducing SVD stacking to reduce computational complexity. The method enables more efficient experimental tuning of control pulses, specifically demonstrating robustness against amplitude, detuning, and coherent spectator qubit errors. By streamlining the calibration process for sophisticated control pulses, this work directly advances the practical deployment of high-fidelity quantum operations.
Dimensionality reduction for closed-loop quantum gate calibration
arXiv:2412.05230v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Numerical gate design typically makes use of high-dimensional parameterizations enabling sophisticated, highly expressive control pulses. Developing efficient experimental calibration methods for such gates is a long-standing challenge in quantum control, as on-device calibration requires the optimization of noisy experimental data over high-dimensional parameter spaces. To improve the efficiency of calibrations, we present a systematic method based on SVD stacking for reducing the dimensionality of the parameter space traversed in gate calibration, starting from an arbitrary high-dimensional pulse representation. We use this approach to design and calibrate an $X_{\pi/2}$ gate robust against amplitude and detuning errors, as well as an $X_{\pi/2}$ gate robust against coherent errors due to a spectator qubit.
