Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Quantum Error Prevention and Correction using Transformer Model

Agreement Number:

1016507

Duration: from Mar 26, 2024 to Sep 30, 2027
Description:

The Project employs modern machine learning to accelerate the development of industry-ready quantum computing technologies. To this end, the Project addresses the key bottleneck in quantum computing technologies, quantum errors, by pioneering advancements in quantum error prevention and correction through machine learning methods. Machine learning methods, and in particular transformers, possess the potential to learn and model the patterns and dynamics of quantum errors in individual quantum processor hardware in unprecedented detail and with unprecedented adaptability to individual quantum processors. This opens the prospect of machine-learned quantum error handling strategies that are significantly more complex, and efficient, than the more rigid manually developed methods currently in use.
