| Abstract: |
Threshold theorems for fault-tolerant quantum computing assume that errors are of certain types. But how would one detect whether errors of the 'wrong' type occur in one's experiment, especially if one does not even know what type of error to look for? The problem is that for many qubits a full state description is impossible to analyze, and a full process description is even more impossible to analyze. As a result, one simply cannot detect all types of errors.
Here I show how to attack this problem using model selection, and in particular, by using the Akaike Information Criterion. |
