The Mitiq Open Source Ecosystem
I am the Chief Technology Officer of Unitary Foundation, a non-profit organization that performs in-house research in quantum tech and supports the open-source software ecosystem. At Unitary Foundation, I lead the technical staff (Unitary Labs), which performs research in quantum computing developing open-source software.
Abstract
The Mitiq open source ecosystem is a community-driven toolkit for quantum error mitigation, developed by the Unitary Foundation to support resilient quantum computing across platforms. It implements techniques such as zero-noise extrapolation, probabilistic error cancellation, and virtual distillation, and integrates with major quantum software and hardware stacks. This talk highlights recent benchmarks, collaborative research, and design principles that make Mitiq a flexible and composable foundation for advancing both practical applications and fundamental studies of quantum error mitigation.
