AbstractIn the coming decades, quantum computing is expected to expand the frontiers of scientific computing by enabling computational tasks that are otherwise difficult to perform. A fundamental task in this area is learning the properties of quantum states, with applications to verifying quantum devices, developing quantum algorithms, ensuring the security of quantum communication, and probing the foundations of quantum mechanics. However, quantum systems are highly sensitive to noise, making it diffi
