Abstract

The coordination between distance and the secure key rate is one of the main challenges in the practical application of quantum key distribution (QKD). Mode-pairing quantum key distribution is one of the schemes that can surpass the secret key capacity for repeaterless QKD. However, the protocol utilizes phase to encode the information, which leads to the problem of active stabilization in the interferometer. In this paper, a reference-frame-independent mode-pairing quantum key distribution (RFI-MP-QKD) is proposed as an effective scheme to solve this problem. Moreover, the performance of the RFI-MP-QKD protocol is improved by applying the Advantage Distillation (AD) method in data post-processing, which separates the highly correlated raw key bits from the weakly correlated information. The simulation results show that the secure key rate of RFI-MP-QKD has almost no degradation for reference frame deviation angles of 0 degrees similar to 7 degrees. Compared to RFI-MP-QKD without AD method, the AD method decreases the quantum bit error rate from 0.04 to 0.012 and increases the maximum transmission distance from 406 to 450 km. The scheme proposed is expected to facilitate the practical implementation of RFI-MP-QKD, especially in cases of concerning reference frame alignment and high channel loss.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
