qfactor 1.0.0

Quantum Fast Circuit Optimizer

Quantum Fast Circuit Optimizer (qFactor)

This optimizer can optimize the distance between a circuit, a sequence of unitary gates, and a target unitary matrix. This optimizer uses an analytic method based on the SVD operation.

Installation

The best way to install this python package is with pip.

pip install qfactor

Usage

The qfactor package can be used to optimize a specified circuit. You can specify your circuit with a list of Gate objects and pass them to the optimize function. See an example.
