Researchers have developed a real-time detector for charge jumps in superconducting qubits using a dilated causal convolutional neural network (DCCNN). This new method, designed for in-the-loop deployment on the Quantum Instrumentation Control Kit (QICK) platform, significantly reduces latency compared to existing offline detection techniques. The DCCNN achieves a per-inference latency of 6.19 μs and demonstrates detection efficiency comparable to the established offline χ² algorithm, without requiring per-qubit hyperparameter tuning. This advancement enables adaptive protocols that can respond to radiation-induced events in situ, benefiting both fault-tolerant quantum computing error mitigation and quantum sensing applications.
