# Circuit-Level Noise Estimation via Shuttling in Plaquette Circuits

## Core Methodology

Methodology for circuit-level noise estimation in quantum error correction using shuttling operations in plaquette circuits. Provides a systematic approach to characterizing and estimating noise at the circuit level, enabling more accurate error models for quantum error correction codes. Uses shuttling-based measurement protocols to isolate and quantify different noise sources in surface code architectures.
