In the first case study, we predict circuit (i) process fidelities and (ii) success probabilities by fitting error rates models to two kinds of volumetric benchmarking data.

Measurements that occur within the internal layers of a quantum circuit -- mid-circuit measurements -- are an important quantum computing primitive, most notably for quantum error correction.

Using both simulated and experimental data, we show how to use wildcard error to reconcile error models derived from RB and GST experiments with inconsistent data, to capture non-Markovianity, and to quantify all of a processor's observed error.

Quantum characterization, validation, and verification (QCVV) techniques are used to probe, characterize, diagnose, and detect errors in quantum information processors (QIPs).

If quantum information processors are to fulfill their potential, the diverse errors that affect them must be understood and suppressed.

Because of the positivity constraint $\rho \geq 0$, quantum state space does not generally satisfy local asymptotic normality, meaning the classical null theory for the loglikelihood ratio (the Wilks theorem) should not be used.

A most intuitive realization of a qubit is a single electron charge sitting at two well-defined positions, such as the left and right sides of a double quantum dot.

We introduce and demonstrate experimentally: (1) a framework called "gate set tomography" (GST) for self-consistently characterizing an entire set of quantum logic gates on a black-box quantum device; (2) an explicit closed-form protocol for linear-inversion gate set tomography (LGST), whose reliability is independent of pathologies such as local maxima of the likelihood; and (3) a simple protocol for objectively scoring the accuracy of a tomographic estimate without reference to target gates, based on how well it predicts a set of testing experiments.
