Abstract

Estimating parameters of quantum systems (e.g., parameters in their Hamiltonians) is important from both practical and fundamental aspects. In standard strategies, parameters are estimated from the data accumulated by many independent and identical experiments: every time one performs a measurement, the system needs to be reset in a specific initial state.
