Researchers develop evolutionary BP+OSD decoder for low-latency quantum error correction

Researchers have developed a new evolutionary belief propagation (EBP) decoder combined with ordered statistics decoding (OSD) to improve the efficiency of quantum error correction. This approach optimizes the decoder structure using a differential evolution algorithm, reducing the number of iterations and complexity. Experiments on surface and QLDPC codes show that the EBP+OSD method achieves better decoding performance and significantly lower latency compared to traditional BP+OSD, especially under strict low-latency requirements.

    Evolutionary BP+OSD Decoding for Low-Latency Quantum Error Correction

    arXiv:2512.18273v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Quantum error correction (QEC) for fault-tolerant quantum computing requires a balanced decoding solution that offers high performance, low complexity, and low latency. However, the de facto standard, belief propagation (B…
