Abstract

With this talk, I will first illustrate the implementation of our machine-learning (ML) enhanced quantum state tomography (QST) for continuous variables, through the experimentally measured data generated from squeezed vacuum states [1], single-photon Fock states [2], and optical cat states [3], as an example of quantum machine learning [4]. Our recent progress will be demonstrated in applying such a ML-QST on Wigner currents [5], FPGA [6], Bayesian estimation for gravitational wave detectors [7], and quantumness measure [8].
