摘要

The efficient implementation of quantum computing is contingent upon high-fidelity quantum operations. Nevertheless, the fidelity of these operations is constrained by the precision of quantum system evolution control. The optimization of quantum control pulses is essential for improving the manipulation accuracy of superconducting qubits. Traditional optimization methods, including gradient descent and the gradient ascent pulse engineering algorithm, frequently encounter challenges such as slow convergence and susceptibility to local optima in pulse optimization problems. This study introduces an adaptive open-loop optimization algorithm based on the adaptive moment estimation (Adam) optimizer, capitalizing on the benefits of momentum and adaptive learning rate adjustments inherent in Adam. We conduct experimental analysis on the algorithm’s hyperparameters to achieve optimal solutions with a higher fidelity range at a faster convergence speed, effectively improving the fidelity and optimization efficiency of quantum gate operations. Through numerical simulations on the QuTiP platform, we validate the excellent performance of the Adam algorithm in quantum gate optimization. In optimizing the X and SWAP gates, its fidelity improved by 0.03% and 0.0016%, respectively, compared to the GRAPE algorithm. Compared to the CRAB method, the initial convergence speed of the Adam method increased fivefold, enabling it to achieve the target fidelity more rapidly. Future research will investigate closed-loop optimization strategies, utilizing feedback derived from the fidelity results of actual quantum computers to further augment quantum control performance
