qat.hardware.make_depolarizing_hardware_model
- qat.hardware.make_depolarizing_hardware_model(eps1, eps2, correl_type='single_qubit', depol_type='pauli', tol=1e-12)
Construct a simplified hardware model with perfect gates followed by depolarizing noise. There is no idling noise, no readout error. The gateset is the standard gateset.
- Parameters
eps1 (float) – one-qubit gate error rate
eps2 (float) – two-qubit gate error rate
correl_type (str, optional) – type of two-qubit correlation. Either “single_qubit” or “multi_qubit”. Defaults to “single_qubit”.
depol_type (str, optional) – type of depolarizing channel, among ‘pauli’ and ‘randomizing’. Defaults to ‘pauli’.
- Returns
a hardware model with depolarizing gate noise
- Return type
Notes
If correl_type==”single_qubit”, the two qubit depolarizing noise is a tensor product of two single-qubit depolarizing noises. It thus only applies single-qubit Pauli errors.
If correl_type==”multi_qubit”, the two qubit depolarizing noise applies a multiqubit Pauli errors (with the same probability for each possible Pauli error). See the documentation of
make_depolarizing_channel()for more information.depol_type distinguishes between the two usual definitions of the depolarizing channel, see the documentation of
make_depolarizing_channel()for more information.
