Two-mode squeezed states in the limit of small squeezing, Hong-Ou-Mandel interference and post selection on coincidence counts are some of the staples of linear quantum optics. We show that by using classical expectations on central moments of intensities, we can remove the requirement of small squeezing necessary for high fidelity coincidence detection. Utilizing existing techniques to probabilistically generate a cluster state, we construct a statistical analogue with deterministic generation at the cost of losing the ability to feed forward and requiring statistical averaging.
