PhD on Machine learning for quantum error correction (Prof Ivan Rungger, NLP and Royal Holloway, UK)
stephane....@gmail.com
An opening for a PhD in ML for Quantum error correction with Prof. Ivan Rungger (National Physical Laboratory and Royal Holloway) is available.
This project will develop optimal quantum control theory and machine-learning algorithms for quantum error correction.
In addition, in this role, you will be supported to follow your independent ambition within the project remit.
The duration of the programme is 3.5 years. You are expected to have (or be about to obtain) a Master’s degree or equivalent (e.g., a First Class Honours) in Computer Science, Mathematics, or Physics. A strong background in the theory of quantum computation, quantum foundations, quantum information theory, or closely a related field is necessary.
Further to the freedom in the choice of research topics and the availability of a broad range of prospective specific projects, you will have the opportunity to establish close collaborations with excellent theoretical and experimental scientists within the University, the UK, and internationally.
The selected candidates will start as soon as possible, with a suggested date of 1 October 2024.
For informal inquiries about each project, please contact Prof Ivan Rungger (ivan.r...@rhul.ac.uk).
