The concept of weak value exhibits numerous intriguing characteristics, leading to unexpected and potentially advantageous phenomena. In this paper, we analyze, from a computational perspective, the performance of the weak measurement protocol for measuring the weak value within various noise channels. A mathematical framework is developed for addressing the less explored case of noise acting on the primary rather than probe system. We pinpoint specific instances where the sensitivity to noise is reduced quadratically with the weak measurement protocol while this cannot be achieved with the standard measurement protocol. Specifically, when confronted with the challenge of learning an operator under the influence of either a Pauli noise channel, a unital noise channel, or an amplitude and phase damping channel, the weak measurement of the weak value can yield significant benefits. Notably, in the first two cases, and especially in the context of the unital noise channel, initializing the system in the maximally mixed state (but postselecting it in a pure state) has proven to be particularly advantageous. |
