Summary
Takahiro, a postdoctoral researcher at Rolov, presents insights on quantum error correction, focusing on the practical implementation of bosonic encoding in quantum computing. He emphasizes the need for efficient hardware solutions to tackle the significant resource overhead associated with error correction in quantum systems.
The discussion highlights two major types of bosonic encodings: cat codes and dual-rail qubits. Cat codes utilize coherent states to create logical qubits that can withstand photon loss, while dual-rail qubits separate computational states from error states, allowing for better error detection. Takahiro explains that the challenge lies in reducing physical error rates, which are currently just above the threshold for effective quantum error correction.
He notes that advancements in materials and circuit design are crucial for improving qubit lifetimes and reducing error rates. The presentation concludes with a call for continued research into these encoding methods, as they hold promise for building more efficient quantum computers capable of running complex algorithms with reduced error rates.

In this lesson, we explore the logic model as a crucial planning tool for social ventures, focusing on how it helps operationalize your theory of change and set clear success metrics. You'll learn the specifics of the 'logframe' and how it guides you from overarching goals to measurable objectives and activities.Uploaded 13-08-25🎯 Learning Objectives• Understand what a logic model is and its role as a planning tool for social impact.• Differentiate between various types of logic models, including the detailed logframe.• Learn to break down an overarching organizational goal into specific, measurable, actionable, realistic, and time-bound (SMART) objectives.• Identify the key components of a logical framework (logframe) for operationalizing your social entrepreneurship endeavor.📚 About the Course Have you ever wondered what it would be like to create real change? You don't have to start your own organization to make a difference in the world. Everyone can learn the social entrepreneurship mindset and skillset to build social impact. In this course, you will immerse yourself in a social or environmental challenge you want to tackle. You'll start by researching your topic of choice, talking to people, and ideating a potential solution that you can contribute. Then, you'll build a business model around that solution, understanding concepts like measuring social change, ensuring financial viability, funding and pitching. This course is a safe space to experiment and explore. You'll be guided by a ten stage framework to help structure your journey. Along the way, you'll hear from social entrepreneurs around the world through case studies and campus conversations. These include Yale alumni, members of the New Haven community, and global changemakers. Everyone is welcome to join this course! You can apply your lived, learned, or professional experience to discover how you're going to make a difference. 📺 Watch the full playlist on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLh9mgdi4rNezbi0aRJeVnt99ynTVZG1PL🎓 Enroll on Coursera for assessments and a certificate: https://online.yale.edu/courses/creating-change-through-social-entrepreneurship🌐 Explore more learning opportunities on Yale Online: https://online.yale.edu/courses/creating-change-through-social-entrepreneurship#SocialEntrepreneurship #YaleCourse #Impact #Changemakers #BusinessPlan #DesignThinking Learn more about your ad choices.

Game Theory (ECON 159)Uploaded 20-11-08We continue the idea (from last time) of playing a best response to what we believe others will do. More particularly, we develop the idea that you should not play a strategy that is not a best response for any belief about others' choices. We use this idea to analyze taking a penalty kick in soccer. Then we use it to analyze a profit-sharing partnership. Toward the end, we introduce a new notion: Nash Equilibrium.00:00 - Chapter 1.

Milton (ENGL 220)Uploaded 21-11-08Milton's characteristic use of simile is explored in Books One and Two of Paradise Lost. Particular attention is paid to how Milton's similes work to support, undermine, and complicate both the depiction of Satan and the broader thematic concerns of the poem, such as the ideas of free will and divine providence. The critical perspectives of Geoffrey Hartman and Stanley Fish are incorporated into an analysis of Satan's shield and spear and the simile of the leaves.00:00 - Chapter 1.

Game Theory (ECON 159)Uploaded 20-11-08We first discuss Zermelo's theorem: that games like tic-tac-toe or chess have a solution. That is, either there is a way for player 1 to force a win, or there is a way for player 1 to force a tie, or there is a way for player 2 to force a win. The proof is by induction. Then we formally define and informally discuss both perfect information and strategies in such games. This allows us to find Nash equilibria in sequential games. But we find that some Nash equilibria are inconsistent with backward induction. In particular, we discuss an example that involves a threat that is believed in an equilibrium but does not seem credible.00:00 - Chapter 1.
