Scientists at the Institute of Science Tokyo have announced a breakthrough in quantum error correction that could bring a large-scale quantum computer closer to ...

The researchers have proven PLANAR's effectiveness on surface codes under particular noise conditions and plan to adapt it for non-planar graphs with finite genus, opening the door to broader use in ...

Quantum error correction decoder upgrade backfires: a new arXiv preprint from Leiden University and Riverlane shows that ...

The work paid off. The codes achieve an encoding rate—a number that indicates the ratio between logical and physical qubits—of up to 30% which Goto says appears to be the world's highest among the ...

Two independent groups have experimentally demonstrated surface-code quantum error correction—an approach for remedying errors in quantum computations. Figure 1 ...

Members of some families of error correction codes differ in a fairly simple way: Each step up in size (which may require multiple hardware qubits) means a greater distance. So by adding more hardware ...

The real world can be complex and unpredictable, where the behaviors of even the most steady and proven mechanisms can be fraught with unanticipated outcomes. In technological fields, scientists and ...

If you have experience working with server hardware, then you have probably heard of error-correcting memory. High-performance server memory is prone to electrical or magnetic interference, which can ...

Error-correcting codes defined over finite fields form the cornerstone of reliable digital communication and data storage. Such codes exploit the algebraic structure of finite fields—denoted GF(q)—to ...
