Quantum Computers Check Each Other’s Answers in New Error-Correction Approach
Quantum computers may be now able to employ a “call-a-friend” tactic to make sure their answers are correct. In a study published today in Physical Review X, a team of physicists from Vienna, Innsbruck, Oxford, and Singapore designed an error-correction method that lets quantum computers check each other’s answers. While quantum computers are advancing quickly, […]
