Patent number: 11815937Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatus for quantum error correction. A layered representation of error propagation through quantum error detection circuits is constructed. The layered representation includes multiple line circuit layers that each represent a probability of local detection events in a quantum computing system associated with potential error processes in an execution of a quantum algorithm. To construct the layered representation, potential detection events associated with each potential error process occurring at quantum gates in the quantum circuit are determined. Lines are associated with each potential error process, the lines each connecting a potential detection event associated with the potential error process to another potential detection event associated with the same potential error process or a boundary of the quantum circuit. Similar lines are merged and used to construct unique line circuit layers.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2022Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Google LLCInventor: Austin Greig Fowler

Patent number: 11813053Abstract: A method and system for monitoring neuromuscular blockade in patients during surgical procedures. A stimulator provides stimulation to a nerve of the patient, such as train-of-four (TOF). Following such stimulation, the system and method creates a predicted recovery trend for the patient that is based upon measured recovery trend and a recovery model. The recovery model estimates a recovery trend for the patient based on initial model parameter values. The recovery model creates a predicted recovery trend that is used to estimate a recovery time for the patient. The trend values from the patient are monitored and compared to the predicted trend values throughout the operation as long as the NMT measurement is on. During recovery, the recovery model and recovery time estimates are updated based on the recovery trend being formed from measurements of the patient.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2019Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: GE Precision Healthcare LLCInventors: Helena Liisa Anneli Batsman, Kimmo Henrik Uutela, Markku Erik Spoof
