| contents | Quantum error correction (QEC) is often implemented on hardware that experiences biased noise, where dephasing errors occur more frequently than other errors. This has motivated many recent efforts to develop bias-tailored QEC codes, such as the Clifford-deformed compass codes: a family of codes that achieve high thresholds under biased dephasing noise. We perform circuit-level simulations of the Clifford-deformed elongated compass codes under a biased noise model and evaluate code thresholds using standard minimum weight perfect matching (MWPM) and correlated MWPM. We find that correlated decoding enhances thresholds for all noise biases relative to standard MWPM under circuit-level noise. Our results demonstrate that correlated decoding leads to a higher relative gain in thresholds compared to standard MWPM when applied to codes with asymmetric stabilizers under biased noise. |
