Maison Clouâtré

Maison Clouâtré is a graduate student in aeronautics and astronautics whose research is redefining how we understand and control quantum systems. At the intersection of control theory and quantum mechanics, Maison is helping to establish a new mathematical framework—quantum information control—that uses statistical information measures to guide the design of high-performance quantum sensing, communication, and computing networks. Through a MathWorks Fellowship, he will continue developing computational tools that quantify the performance limits of quantum inference systems. In his work, Maison leverages MATLAB’s Control Systems and Optimization Toolboxes to solve complex design problems in quantum estimation and detection. He is proposing “dynamical information measures”—metrics that reveal how much information can be extracted from a quantum system—and is developing a MATLAB toolbox for computing them. This foundational research could accelerate the practical deployment of quantum technologies across various applications, including sensing, communication, and computing. By bridging disciplines with rigor and creativity, Maison is helping lay the groundwork for the next generation of quantum-enabled technologies.
