The PennyLane Extra plugin adds some new features to PennyLane. The documentation is still under development.
PennyLane is a machine learning library for optimization and automatic differentiation of hybrid quantum-classical computations.
- Measurement error mitigation on Qiskit devices
PennyLane Extra requires both PennyLane and Qiskit. It can be installed via pip
:
$ git clone https://github.com/pwegrzyn/pennylane-extra
$ cd pennylane-extra
$ python -m pip install .
Currently only the 0.9.0-dev versions of PennyLane and PennyLane-qiskit are supported. They are specified as dependencies to this package.
Note: The documentation is currently is WiP.
Please refer to the plugin documentation as well as to the PennyLane documentation for further reference.
Once PennyLane Extra is installed, you can start using it's featrues right away.
import pennylane as qml
import pennylane_extra as qmle
dev = qml.device("default.qubit", wires=1)
@qml.qnode(dev)
def circuit(params):
qml.RX(params[0], wires=0)
qml.RY(params[1], wires=0)
return qml.expval(qml.PauliZ(0))
with qmle.qiskit_measurement_error_mitigation():
print(circuit(np.array([0, 0]))
For more details, see the plugin usage guide and refer to the PennyLane documentation.
We welcome contributions - simply fork the PennyLane Extra repository, and then make a pull request containing your contribution. All contributers to PennyLane-Extra will be listed as authors on the releases.
We also encourage bug reports, suggestions for new features and enhancements, and even links to cool projects or applications built on PennyLane-Extra.
The plugin is created by G. Frejek and P. Wegrzyn. The original excellent PennyLane framework was started at Xanadu Quantum Technologies Inc.
