LTM, a Larsen & Toubro Group company and global technology services provider, has announced that its proprietary AI-powered Quantum Error Mitigation capability, AI-QEM, is now available in the IBM Quantum Functions Catalog. With this development, LTM becomes the first Global Systems Integrator (GSI) worldwide to publish a function in the catalog.
The IBM Quantum Functions Catalog brings together partner-developed quantum software services designed to simplify quantum workflows. It enables researchers and enterprises to conduct quantum experiments more efficiently for algorithm development and application prototyping.
AI-QEM is available as a circuit function, allowing users with eligible IBM Quantum access plans to apply LTM’s error mitigation capability directly within their Qiskit workflows. The solution uses advanced artificial intelligence models to identify and correct device-specific error patterns through classical post-processing.
Quantum computers are inherently susceptible to noise and errors that can affect computational outcomes. Conventional error mitigation approaches often require additional circuit executions, quantum processing time or auxiliary qubits. AI-QEM is designed to improve result accuracy without requiring additional quantum processing unit (QPU) time, repeated circuit executions or extra qubits. This approach can help reduce the cost and complexity of conducting quantum experiments. The capability has been validated on IBM Quantum computers across circuits of varying sizes and complexity, including experiments involving more than 100 qubits.
Commenting on the development, Scott Crowder, Vice President, IBM Quantum Adoption and Business Development, said, “LTM’s AI-QEM now available in the IBM Quantum Functions Catalog reflects the growing role of our ecosystem partners in advancing and expanding the tools available for the wider quantum community. The AI-QEM function will allow our users to mitigate errors faster and with fewer resources, in their efforts to develop algorithms and applications.”
LTM continues to develop practical quantum applications across industries. Its initiatives include quantum optimisation solutions for a leading global insurer, hybrid quantum machine learning for critical infrastructure operations and quantum-safe security programmes to help financial services and insurance organisations prepare for the transition to post-quantum cryptography. The availability of AI-QEM through IBM’s catalog expands access to LTM’s quantum capabilities and supports the development of more efficient quantum computing workflows for the wider research and enterprise community.
