Researchers report bit-flip noise hits QAOA harder than phase-flip noise

Original title: Asymmetric quantum error correction efficiently tackles application-specific noise effects

A study of a small flight-gate scheduling problem finds bit-flip errors degrade QAOA results more than phase-flip errors, suggesting tailored error correction.
