Abstract
Techniques for mitigating readout error for quantum expectation are presented. Calibration component applies first random Pauli gates to qubits at first output of first circuit prior to first readout measurements of the qubits. Estimation component applies second random Pauli gates to qubits at second output of second circuit prior to second readout measurements of the qubits, and generates an error-mitigated readout determination based on first random Pauli gates applied to qubits at first circuit output and second random Pauli gates applied to qubits at second circuit output. Calibration component determines calibration data based on first readout measurements. Estimation component determines estimation data based on second readout measurements. Estimation component determines normalization scalar value based on the calibration data, determines estimation scalar value based on the estimation data, and determines the error-mitigated readout determination associated with a circuit of interest based on the normalization scalar value and estimation scalar value.
