Mitiq: A Python toolkit for quantum error mitigation
summary
A Python library called mitiq implements practical quantum error mitigation: zero-noise extrapolation and probabilistic error cancellation, plus circuit-folding utilities and converters to common SDKs. It runs on simulators and real backends (IBM Q demonstrated) and contains benchmarking scripts and measurement-unbiased estimators. The toolkit applies noise-scaling by gate folding, fits extrapolation curves, or constructs quasi-probability inverse noise maps, and shows reproducible reductions in expectation-value bias on NISQ experiments.
