Linear program for testing nonclassicality and an open-source implementation

JH Selby, E Wolfe, D Schmid, AB Sainz, VP Rossi - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
A well-motivated method for demonstrating that an experiment resists any classical
explanation is to show that its statistics violate generalized noncontextuality. We here …
