Physics-Informed Learning of Effective Error Processes from Limited Noisy Transmon Measurements for Robust QAOA Reliability

We study whether limited finite-shot calibration measurements from a hidden transmon-inspired simulator can be used to learn compact, task-relevant effective error models for variational-algorithm reliability. Each physical element is modeled as a weakly anharmonic qutrit with coherent control imperfections, dissipation, dephasing, leakage, readout assignment error, and sampling noise, while the learner receives only selected local tomography data and, in the three-qubit extension, targeted pair probes. The learned objects are local affine Bloch response maps supplemented by process-relative edge residuals, and they are tested through their ability to reproduce and mitigate deformations of QAOA/MaxCut cost landscapes in simulation. The results show that strongly incomplete local data can still support useful response-map inference, that regularized linear models become competitive with neural networks in the scaled three-qubit setting, and that pair probes provide useful edge-level information, giving the clearest edge-residual prediction gain at the full pair-probe budget and a measurable downstream QAOA benefit. In the best non-oracle test, a Clifford-data-regression-style local-inverse correction reduces the finite-shot QAOA landscape error from $0.18187\,[0.17576,0.18798]$ to $0.01811\,[0.01751,0.01871]$, corresponding to a $10\times$ improvement. The study supports a hardware-aware, measurement-efficient calibration strategy, while incorporating leakage-explicit diagnostics and a non-oracle regression-style correction.

Fidelity-informed neural pulse compilation of a continuous family of quantum gates with uncertainty-margin analysis

We develop a fidelity-informed neural pulse-compilation framework for a continuous family of single-qubit gates on a three-qubit liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) processor. Instead of decomposing each target unitary into a sequence of calibrated basis gates, the method learns a direct map from the axis-angle parameters of an arbitrary U_2 in SU(2) operation to a piecewise-constant radio-frequency control sequence that implements the desired transformation. Training is performed end-to-end through the time-ordered propagator of the driven Hamiltonian using global-phase-insensitive unitary fidelity as the learning signal. We show numerically that a single model generalizes across a continuous range of gate parameters and experimentally validate representative compiled pulses on a benchtop three-qubit NMR device. In addition, we analyze sensitivity to structured perturbations in Hamiltonian and control parameters by introducing a prescribed uncertainty set and performing a comparative risk-aware redesign based on right-tail Conditional Value-at-Risk (RU-CVaR). This stage produces pulse solutions with broader tolerance margins within the chosen uncertainty model. The results demonstrate continuous pulse-level gate synthesis in an experimentally accessible setting and illustrate a hardware-aware compilation strategy that can be extended to other quantum platforms. While the uncertainty model considered here is tailored to NMR, the neural compilation and risk-aware optimization framework are general and may be useful in architectures where calibration overhead, parameter drift, or control constraints make repeated per-gate optimization costly.

Development of Neural Network-Based Optimal Control Pulse Generator for Quantum Logic Gates Using the GRAPE Algorithm in NMR Quantum Computer

In this paper, we introduce a neural network to generate optimal control pulses for general single-qubit quantum logic gates, within a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) quantum computer. By utilizing a neural network, we can efficiently implement any single-qubit quantum logic gates within a reasonable time scale. The network is trained by control pulses generated by the GRAPE algorithm, all starting from the same initial point. After implementing the network, we tested it using numerical simulations. Also, we present the results of applying Neural Network-generated pulses to a three-qubit benchtop NMR system and compare them with simulation outcomes. These numerical and experimental results showcase the precision of the Neural Network-generated pulses in executing the desired dynamics. Ultimately, by developing the neural network using the GRAPE algorithm, we discover the function that maps any single-qubit gate to its corresponding pulse shape. This model enables the real-time generation of arbitrary single-qubit pulses. When combined with the GRAPE-generated pulse for the CNOT gate, it creates a comprehensive and effective set of universal gates. This set can efficiently implement any algorithm in noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers (NISQ era), thereby enhancing the capabilities of quantum optimal control in this domain. Additionally, this approach can be extended to other quantum computer platforms with similar Hamiltonians.
