Machine-learning enhanced quantum state tomography and its applications for optical cat states

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], as an example of quantum machine learning [2]. Our recent progress will be demonstrated in applying such a ML-QST on Wigner currents [3], single-photon Fock state [4], optical cat state [5], Bayesian estimation for gravitational wave detectors [6, 7], and quantumness measure [8].
