The impressive advance of quantum technology requires robust and scalable techniques for characterizing and validating quantum hardware. A technique for quantum process tomography is proposed, combining a tensor network representation with data-driven optimization inspired by unsupervised machine learning. Through synthetic data, the technique achieves process fidelities above 0.99 using significantly fewer measurement shots than traditional tomographic techniques, providing a practical and timely tool for benchmarking quantum circuits in current and near-term quantum computers.
The impressive pace of advance of quantum technology calls for robust and scalable techniques for the characterization and validation of quantum hardware. Quantum process tomography, the reconstruction of an unknown quantum channel from measurement data, remains the quintessential primitive to completely characterize quantum devices. However, due to the exponential scaling of the required data and classical post-processing, its range of applicability is typically restricted to one- and two-qubit gates. Here, we present a technique for performing quantum process tomography that addresses these issues by combining a tensor network representation of the channel with a data-driven optimization inspired by unsupervised machine learning. We demonstrate our technique through synthetically generated data for ideal one- and two-dimensional random quantum circuits of up to 10 qubits, and a noisy 5-qubit circuit, reaching process fidelities above 0.99 using several orders of magnitude fewer (single-qubit) measurement shots than traditional tomographic techniques. Our results go far beyond state-of-the-art, providing a practical and timely tool for benchmarking quantum circuits in current and near-term quantum computers.
