tequila.simulators.simulator_api.compile

tequila.simulators.simulator_api.compile(objective: Union[Objective, QCircuit], variables: Dict[Union[Variable, collections.abc.Hashable], numbers.Real] = None, samples: int = None, backend: str = None, noise: tequila.circuit.noise.NoiseModel = None, device: str = None, *args, **kwargs) → Union[BackendCircuit, Objective][source]

Compile a tequila objective or circuit to a backend.

Parameters

  • objective (Objective:) – tequila objective or circuit

  • variables (dict, optional:) – The variables of the objective given as dictionary with keys as tequila Variables and values the corresponding real numbers

  • samples (int, optional:) – if None a full wavefunction simulation is performed, otherwise a fixed number of samples is simulated

  • backend (str, optional:) – specify the backend or give None for automatic assignment

  • noise (NoiseModel, optional:) – the noise model to apply to the objective or QCircuit.

  • device (optional:) – a device on which (or in emulation of which) to sample the circuit.

Returns

the compiled object.

Return type

simulators.BackendCircuit or Objective
