I put out a preprint on machine learning for QEC decoders with some theory about importance sampling for decoding. Takeaway: You can robustly improve ML decoder performance by training on data generated with higher device error rates, sometimes 10x higher! arxiv.org/abs/2505.22741

This past week, I received a second stop work order on one of my grants. This now means that we can no longer spend on *two* of my major grants. Several of my group members will now graduate earlier than expected, I am looking into being a consultant for the summer, and students will do internships

The research group of Prof. Christoph Hirche @christophhirche.bsky.social at the University of Hannover (Germany) is looking for a motivated PhD student.

Quantum Computing Stack Exchange has the potential to be a resource of great value, but the only source for its value is its users (not unlike Bluesky). So I hope some will consider participating, whether by asking or answering questions or just giving some upvotes.
