This work is similar to the method described by Gambetta and colleagues in [1]; however our technique does not use a linear system of equations, but an image contrast filter to mitigate the measurement noise. Furthermore this method is demonstrated against the same set of experiments described in the matrix-free measurement mitigation (M3) library from Qiskit from which [1] is based upon. Our results show our method outperforming M3 by a wide margin in all experiments on IBM-Q. Furthermore, our method is platform agnostic; we demonstrate this by running some experiments on the IonQ cloud with similar results. Finally, we provide results, documentation and detailed test and source code for further investigation.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.04867v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.04867v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"measurement-noise-mitigation-in-a-quantum","repo_url":"https://github.com/shark-y/quantum_mitigation","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
