Abstract Parameter estimation is a pivotal task, where quantum technologies can enhance precision greatly. We investigate the time-dependent parameter estimation based on deep reinforcement learning, where the noise-free and noisy bounds of parameter estimation are derived from a geometrical perspective. We propose a physical-inspired linear time-correlated control ansatz and a general well-defined reward function integrated with the derived bounds to accelerate the network training for fast generating quantum control signals. In the light of the proposed scheme, we validate the performance of time-dependent and time-independent parameter estimation under noise-free and noisy dynamics. In particular, we evaluate the transferability of the scheme when the parameter has a shift from the true parameter. The simulation showcases the robustness and sample efficiency of the scheme and achieves the state-of-the-art performance. Our work highlights the universality and global optimality of deep reinforcement learning over conventional methods in practical parameter estimation of quantum sensing. |
