We demonstrate that neural networks that process noisy data can learn to exploit, when available, access to auxiliary noise that is correlated with the noise on the data. In effect, the network learns to use the correlated auxiliary noise as an approximate key to decipher its noisy input data. An example of naturally occurring correlated auxiliary noise is the noise due to decoherence. Our results could, therefore, also be of interest, for example, for machine-learned quantum error correction.
