Quantum hardware is advancing rapidly, but without a robust, open software layer, we risk siloed progress and duplicated effort. In our latest collaboration with the Mozilla Foundation, we explore how open-source infrastructure can accelerate the quantum ecosystem. Just as Linux catalyzed the cloud and Firefox defended the open web, we believe a shared, neutral software foundation is essential for the next era of computing.

Unitary Foundation's Mitiq recently reached its first major release (v1.0)! 🎉🎉 I had the opportunity to contribute in this milestone by addressing a piece of technical debt; improving the release workflow automation by replacing deprecated actions/create-release with the recommended GitHub CLI approach. Here is the release note: https://lnkd.in/d_Qyrzxs Looking forward to see Mitiq continue to expand its impact in implementing error mitigation techniques on quantum computers. #OpenSource #QuantumComputing #Mitiq #UnitaryFoundation

🚀 New blog looking at quantum error mitigation techniques using Unitary Foundation's Mitiq toolkit and Amazon Braket's Program Sets feature, supported by a 30-qubit experiment on Rigetti Computing's Ankaa-3 QPU that demonstrated a 12x reduction in error and an 86x reduction in task costs. Today's quantum computers are noisy, and getting useful results from them requires clever techniques to separate signal from noise. Error mitigation is one of the most important practical tools researchers have right now, but it typically means running many circuit variations, which drives up cost and execution time. This work shows how Braket's Program Sets feature let you bundle all those circuit variations into far fewer tasks, slashing costs dramatically while still achieving major accuracy improvements. The Braket Examples repo now includes Mitiq-compatible executors and notebooks covering each technique individually and in composite workflows. Big thanks to Scott Smart, Nate Stemen, Ishaan Lyngdoh Pakrasi, Péter Kómár, and Yi-Ting (Tim) Chen Chen for building these tools and making error mitigation more accessible and cost-effective for the quantum community. 📄 https://lnkd.in/gc8QsX6n 👋 Mike Piech Rebecca Malamud Ben Castanon William Zeng Travis Scholten Nathan Shammah Jordan Sullivan Liz Durst Peter Karalekas Ryan LaRose #QuantumComputing #AWS #AmazonBraket #QuantumResearch #ErrorMitigation #Rigetti #Mitiq #QuantumErrorMitigation

It's great to see our 84-qubit Ankaa-3 system being optimized for practical workloads on such a variety of use cases! Check out this blog post from Amazon Web Services (AWS) to discover how Amazon Braket’s program sets can be used for error mitigation with toolkits such as Unitary Foundation's Mitiq to improve quantum computational accuracy.

We are thrilled to have Mariam Gassama from our partner, Unitary Foundation, representing the QLASS project at #LaFabriqueDeepTech today in Tours. Opening the event was Michiel Scheffer, President of the European Innovation Council (EIC), setting the stage for a day of high-level deep-tech innovation. Mariam is presenting a poster focused on our work in WP5, bridging the gap between complex research and real-world application, amplifying the strategic importance of the QLASS project.
