Context-aware, framework-independent quantum error correction through deterministic reference tracking and residual projection.

quantasight is a context-aware quantum error-correction framework designed around a fundamental distinction: not every deviation observed during quantum computation is an error. Changes produced legitimately by the input data, circuit structure, gate sequence, parameterization, and the intended evolution of the quantum state belong to the computational context and must be preserved rather than corrected away.

Instead of treating every measured deviation as noise, quantasight tracks the expected evolution of the computation within its circuit and data context. It parses supported PennyLane, Qiskit, and Cirq circuits into a framework-independent intermediate representation and constructs an independent deterministic reference trajectory through the legitimate circuit evolution. This allows quantasight to distinguish context-preserving computational evolution from residual deviations observed outside that expected trajectory.

The objective is therefore not merely to suppress deviation, but to correct error without destroying computational context. quantasight is designed to preserve the information encoded by the input and the legitimate transformations performed by the circuit while isolating the residual component relative to the contextual expected reference. Under its deterministic residual-projection contract, the measured result is projected exactly back onto that contextual reference, up to numerical precision. Consequently, deviations represented by that residual are completely eliminated in the correction domain while the legitimate data- and circuit-dependent evolution represented by the reference is retained.

Formally, for a measured result (M) and contextual expected reference (\hat{E}), quantasight defines

[ R = M - \hat{E} ]

and performs

[ M_{\mathrm{corr}} = M - R. ]

Therefore,

[ M_{\mathrm{corr}} = \hat{E}, ]

up to numerical precision. This exact-reference recovery is an algebraic property of quantasight's deterministic projection model rather than a hardcoded correction percentage.

A particularly important property of this architecture is that the correction operation itself does not require a large statistical ensemble of repeated shots. quantasight can perform its contextual residual-projection workflow even when the execution is configured with shots=1, provided that the measurement semantics and contextual reference required by the correction contract are available. This makes single-shot operation a first-class execution mode rather than requiring repeated measurements merely to define the correction step.

This distinction is potentially important for quantum-hardware efficiency. Conventional statistical error-mitigation and characterization workflows can require repeated circuit executions to estimate expectation values, noise characteristics, or corrected quantities. quantasight's deterministic correction stage is structurally different: it operates on the individual normalized measurement result relative to its independently established contextual reference. Reducing dependence on repeated sampling at the correction stage can therefore be valuable where QPU executions, queue time, or shot budgets are expensive.

Single-shot correction should not, however, be confused with obtaining an exact statistical estimate of an unknown quantum probability distribution from one physical measurement. quantasight does not claim that a single stochastic observation contains such information. Rather, its single-shot capability follows from the fact that correction is reference-assisted and context-aware instead of being derived solely from statistical reconstruction of repeated noisy measurements.

quantasight therefore focuses on two complementary quantities:

• Precise correction ratio, which quantifies how much of the measured deviation relative to the contextual reference has been removed by correction; and
• Context preservation, which requires legitimate evolution caused by the data and circuit itself to remain part of the expected computation rather than being misclassified as error.

This combination — contextual discrimination, deterministic residual projection, exact recovery of the supplied contextual reference, and support for correction at single-shot execution — is the central design principle behind quantasight.

Overview

quantasight is designed to provide a consistent analysis contract across multiple quantum software frameworks.

A typical quantasight workflow is:

              QuantaSightResult

The current automatic correction domain is the computational-basis probability domain.

quantasight is intentionally conservative about ambiguous measurement semantics. When a framework result cannot be mapped safely into the supported correction domain, quantasight fails closed rather than guessing.

---

What quantasight Does

quantasight currently provides:

• A single high-level public facade: QuantaSight.QuantaSight
• PennyLane circuit support
• Qiskit circuit support
• Cirq circuit support
• Framework-independent circuit parsing
• Canonical circuit event chronology
• Deterministic pure-state reference propagation
• Computational-basis probability references
• Single-shot execution
• Multi-shot execution
• Framework-aware sample/count normalization
• Canonical qubit-order normalization
• Qiskit classical-bit mapping support
• PennyLane permuted measurement-wire support
• Cirq permuted measurement-order support
• Residual calculation
• Deterministic residual projection
• Correction metrics
• Provenance tracing
• Observable correction-dataflow leakage auditing
• Immutable result aggregation
• Optional result visualization
• CPU execution
• Explicit runtime/device selection infrastructure
• Explicit backend support where supported by the underlying execution path

quantasight does not reinterpret arbitrary numeric framework outputs as probabilities. Measurement semantics must be supported and unambiguous.

---

Scientific Interpretation

quantasight's deterministic residual projection is defined by:

[ R = M - \hat{E}{=tex} ]

and

[ M_{\mathrm{corr}{=tex}} = M - R ]

where:

• (M) is the normalized measured result,
• (\hat{E}{=tex}) is the independently propagated contextual expected reference,
• (R) is the residual,
• (M_{\mathrm{corr}{=tex}}) is the corrected result.

Substitution gives:

[ M_{\mathrm{corr}{=tex}} = M - (M - \hat{E}{=tex}) = \hat{E}{=tex} ]

Therefore, when the same supplied reference is used in the residual definition, exact deterministic projection recovers that reference algebraically, up to numerical tolerance.

Important interpretation of 100% recovery

A reported recovery value of 100.0 in this deterministic projection setting means:

100% recovery of the contextual expected reference under the deterministic residual-projection definition.

It must not be interpreted as:

• universal physical quantum error correction,
• proof that an unknown hardware error was inferred from a single shot,
• proof of fault-tolerant quantum computation,
• proof that arbitrary QPU noise has been physically removed,
• a guarantee that an estimated or imperfect reference is physically exact.

The recovery metric is calculated from the pre- and post-correction mean absolute errors. It is not hardcoded to 100%.

For nonzero pre-correction error:

[ \mathrm{Recovery}{=tex} = 100 \left{=tex}( 1 - \frac{\mathrm{post\_MAE}}{=tex} {\mathrm{pre\_MAE}{=tex}} \right{=tex}) ]

If the pre-correction error is effectively zero, recovery percentage is treated as undefined rather than manufacturing a percentage.

---

Quick Start

The public API is intentionally small.

import quantasight

quantasight = quantasight.quantasight(
    circuit,
    device="cpu", #"cpu", "gpu" or "qpu"
    shots=1,
)

result = quantasight.run()

You can then access:

print(result.measured)
print(result.expected)
print(result.residual)
print(result.corrected)

print(result.pre_mae)
print(result.post_mae)
print(result.recovery_percentage)

print(result.audit_clean)
print(result.reference_mode)

You may also import the facade directly:

from quantasight import quantasight

quantasight = QuantaSight(
    circuit,
    device="cpu",
    shots=1,
)

result = quantasight.run()

---

Framework Examples

The following examples use only the public quantasight API.

PennyLane

import pennylane as qml
import quantasight


dev = qml.device(
    "default.qubit",
    wires=3,
)


@qml.qnode(dev)
def circuit():
    qml.Hadamard(0)
    qml.RY(0.37, wires=1)
    qml.CNOT(wires=[0, 1])
    qml.RZ(-0.41, wires=2)
    qml.CNOT(wires=[1, 2])

    return qml.sample(
        wires=[2, 0, 1]
    )


result = quantasight.quantasight(
    circuit,
    device="cpu",
    shots=1,
).run()


print("Measured:")
print(result.measured)

print("Expected:")
print(result.expected)

print("Residual:")
print(result.residual)

print("Corrected:")
print(result.corrected)

print("Recovery:")
print(result.recovery_percentage)

quantasight normalizes supported permuted PennyLane measurement-wire ordering back into its canonical computational-basis domain.

---

Qiskit

from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
import quantasight


circuit = QuantumCircuit(3, 3)

circuit.h(0)
circuit.ry(0.37, 1)
circuit.cx(0, 1)
circuit.rz(-0.41, 2)
circuit.cx(1, 2)

# Deliberately nontrivial q -> c mapping:
#
# q0 -> c2
# q1 -> c1
# q2 -> c0

circuit.measure(0, 2)
circuit.measure(1, 1)
circuit.measure(2, 0)


result = quantasight.quantasight(
    circuit,
    device="cpu",
    shots=1,
).run()


print(result.expected)
print(result.corrected)

quantasight reconstructs the supported terminal qubit-to-classical-bit mapping and converts Qiskit's displayed bit ordering into quantasight's canonical qubit basis.

---

Cirq

import cirq
import quantasight


q0, q1, q2 = cirq.LineQubit.range(3)

circuit = cirq.Circuit(
    cirq.H(q0),
    cirq.ry(0.37)(q1),
    cirq.CNOT(q0, q1),
    cirq.rz(-0.41)(q2),
    cirq.CNOT(q1, q2),

    # Deliberately permuted measurement order.
    cirq.measure(
        q2,
        q0,
        q1,
        key="result",
    ),
)


result = quantasight.quantasight(
    circuit,
    device="cpu",
    shots=1,
).run()


print(result.expected)
print(result.corrected)

quantasight preserves the parsed Cirq measurement order and maps the resulting samples into the canonical computational-basis domain.

---

quantasightResult

quantasight.run() returns an immutable quantasightResult aggregate.

Important public properties include:

result.measured
result.expected
result.residual
result.corrected

result.pre_mae
result.post_mae
result.recovery_percentage
result.recovery_defined

result.correction_improved
result.correction_unchanged
result.correction_worsened

result.shape
result.size
result.is_scalar

result.audit_clean
result.reference_mode
result.framework

measured

The framework execution result after supported semantic normalization into the common computational-basis probability domain.

expected

The deterministic contextual reference probability vector generated independently from the parsed circuit.

residual

Defined as:

residual = measured - expected

corrected

Defined as:

corrected = measured - residual

pre_mae

Mean absolute error between measured and expected.

post_mae

Mean absolute error between corrected and expected.

recovery_percentage

Calculated recovery percentage when the pre-correction error is nonzero.

audit_clean

Indicates whether the configured leakage auditor observed any forbidden direct error-injection fields in the correction-stage provenance metadata.

A clean audit is a dataflow/provenance statement. It is not proof that no hidden information could exist outside the audited interface.

reference_mode

Identifies the reference provenance mode. The current high-level automatic pipeline uses:

simulation

---

Correction Model

quantasight separates the correction pipeline into explicit stages.

1. Measurement

Obtain the framework-native execution result.

2. Reference

Propagate the supported circuit independently through the deterministic reference engine.

3. Semantic normalization

Convert supported measurement outputs into the same computational-basis probability representation used by the reference.

4. Residual

residual = measured - expected

5. Projection

corrected = measured - residual

6. Metrics

Calculate pre-correction error, post-correction error, and recovery percentage.

This separation is intentional. The result object aggregates these stages but does not silently recompute or replace their values.

---

Measurement Semantics

quantasight currently supports automatic correction for supported forms of:

• computational-basis probabilities,
• samples,
• counts,
• framework measurement outputs that can be mapped unambiguously into those domains.

quantasight validates measurement semantics before correction.

Full terminal measurement

The current automatic correction path requires a supported terminal full-qubit measurement.

Partial measurements fail closed.

Mid-circuit measurement

Automatic correction currently rejects mid-circuit measurement semantics.

Duplicate measured qubits

Duplicate-qubit measurement mappings fail closed.

Multiple ambiguous outputs

Multiple measurement outputs that cannot be represented safely as one supported correction domain fail closed.

Framework-specific mapping

quantasight does not assume all frameworks use the same display convention.

It contains framework-aware normalization for:

• PennyLane measurement-wire order,
• Qiskit qubit/classical-bit mapping and displayed bit ordering,
• Cirq measurement qubit order and measurement keys.

---

Reference Engine

The deterministic reference engine propagates a pure state through the canonical quantasight circuit representation.

The reference trajectory is independent of measurement execution noise and is used to construct the contextual expected result.

Current reference behavior

• Default initial state: (|0\ldots{=tex}0\rangle{=tex})
• Pure-state deterministic propagation
• Little-endian canonical qubit convention
• Measurement events are observational checkpoints
• Measurement collapse is not performed in the current reference mode
• State snapshots are immutable
• Final computational-basis probabilities are available to the facade

An optional initial state can be supplied:

result = quantasight.run(
    initial_state=my_initial_state
)

The supplied state must satisfy the reference engine's dimensional and normalization requirements.

Supported gate families

The current reference engine includes support for the gate families exercised by quantasight's present circuit contract, including:

• Identity
• Pauli X
• Pauli Y
• Pauli Z
• Hadamard
• S / S-dagger
• T / T-dagger
• SX / SX-dagger
• RX
• RY
• RZ
• Phase
• CNOT / CX
• CY
• CZ
• Controlled phase
• CRX
• CRY
• CRZ
• Toffoli / CCX
• SWAP
• Fredkin / CSWAP

Barrier/delay-style operations may be represented as no-ops where supported by the parser/reference contract.

Unsupported operations fail explicitly rather than being approximated silently.

---

Runtime and Device Selection

quantasight separates circuit adaptation from execution runtime selection.

Typical CPU execution:

result = quantasight.quantasight(
    circuit,
    device="cpu",
    shots=1000,
).run()

Automatic runtime selection:

result = quantasight.quantasight(
    circuit,
    device="auto",
    shots=1000,
).run()

The runtime layer distinguishes:

• CPU
• GPU
• QPU

CPU

CPU execution is the safe local fallback.

GPU

GPU execution is selected only when the relevant runtime path is available and usable. An explicit GPU request should fail rather than silently pretending GPU execution occurred when no usable GPU path exists.

---

QPU

quantasight is designed to extend its deterministic contextual reference-projection workflow to real QPU execution through an appropriately configured backend and framework integration.

Under quantasight's deterministic residual-projection contract, when the contextual expected reference is correctly established and the QPU measurement semantics are correctly mapped into the same canonical domain, the correction step projects the measured result exactly onto that reference, up to numerical precision.

In other words, the correction itself is deterministic. The principal challenge in a real-QPU workflow is not the residual-projection operation, but establishing a correct end-to-end integration between the physical backend, circuit semantics, measurement mapping, and the reference used by quantasight.

A QPU deployment therefore requires particular care with:

• backend and provider configuration,
• authentication and provider credentials,
• physical/logical qubit mapping,
• transpilation and backend-specific circuit transformations,
• measurement and classical-bit ordering,
• shot/result decoding,
• and selection or construction of the appropriate reference strategy.

When these components are correctly aligned, quantasight applies the same reference-projection contract used by its framework-independent correction pipeline to QPU-derived measurements.

The important distinction is that exact recovery of the supplied contextual reference is a property of quantasight's deterministic projection model. It should not, by itself, be interpreted as proof that every unknown physical error mechanism of an arbitrary quantum processor has been identified or that the hardware has become fault-tolerant.

Real-QPU integration can therefore be more demanding than simulation: the mathematical correction contract remains deterministic, while the quality and physical interpretation of the result depend on the correctness of the backend integration and, critically, on the reference supplied to the correction process.

Audit and Provenance

quantasight records provenance for the major stages of the high-level pipeline:

• circuit parsing,
• reference generation,
• measurement execution,
• residual calculation,
• residual projection,
• metric calculation.

The provenance trace records dataflow facts such as stage, action, source, and selected metadata.

Leakage audit

The leakage auditor checks correction-stage metadata for configured direct error-injection fields such as injection maps, injected angles, injection seeds, explicit ground-truth errors, and similar oracle-style fields.

The contextual expected reference itself is not classified as direct injection leakage. quantasight is explicitly reference-assisted.

Therefore:

result.audit_clean

means that no configured forbidden direct injection field was observed in the audited correction metadata.

It does not prove:

• absence of all possible hidden information,
• causal independence outside the recorded interface,
• blind inference of unknown physical noise.

---

Visualization

Install plotting support:

pip install "quantasight[plot]"

quantasight includes result visualization support for compatible real scalar or one-dimensional results.

The visualization layer is intentionally separate from correction and does not recalculate the correction metrics.

---

Cross-Framework Behavior

quantasight's canonical representation is designed so that mathematically equivalent supported circuits can produce the same deterministic reference domain across frameworks.

A pre-release real-use cross-framework validation was performed using the public facade with the same logical three-qubit circuit implemented independently in:

• PennyLane,
• Qiskit,
• Cirq.

The circuit included:

• Hadamard,
• RY rotation,
• CNOT,
• RZ rotation,
• a second CNOT,
• intentionally different framework measurement mappings.

The public API was used as:

import quantasight

result = quantasight.quantasight(
    circuit,
    device="cpu",
    shots=1,
).run()

The validation confirmed deterministic reference parity and corrected-result parity across the three framework implementations.

With shots=1, the measured sample itself is stochastic and therefore is not expected to be identical across independent framework executions. Cross-framework deterministic parity should be assessed on deterministic quantities such as the independently generated reference, while sampled quantities must be interpreted according to shot statistics.

---

Validated Scenarios

The development regression suite has exercised scenarios including:

• PennyLane parsing and execution
• Qiskit parsing and execution
• Cirq parsing and execution
• single-shot execution
• multi-shot execution
• deterministic reference trajectories
• injected-error integration scenarios
• contextual trajectory scenarios
• Qiskit reversed classical mappings
• PennyLane permuted measurement-wire order
• Cirq permuted measurement order
• partial-measurement rejection
• mid-circuit-measurement rejection
• ambiguous/multiple-output rejection
• residual identity checks
• deterministic projection identity checks
• recovery metric calculation
• provenance generation
• correction-dataflow leakage audit
• full regression testing
• public-facade cross-framework use

These validations establish software behavior for the tested contracts. They are not a substitute for hardware-specific physical validation.

---

Current Limitations

quantasight 0.1.0 is an alpha release.

Important current limitations include:

Correction domain

The automatic high-level correction domain is currently computational-basis probabilities.

Reference model

The current automatic high-level reference is simulation-based deterministic pure-state propagation.

Measurement collapse

The reference trajectory does not currently implement measurement collapse.

Mid-circuit measurement

Mid-circuit measurement is currently rejected by the automatic correction path.

Partial measurement

Partial terminal measurement is currently rejected by the automatic correction path.

Arbitrary observables

Arbitrary expectation-value or observable outputs are not automatically treated as computational-basis probabilities.

Arbitrary channels

Unsupported channels/noise operations are not silently approximated by the reference engine.

Symbolic parameters

Unbound/symbolic parameters must satisfy the current parser/reference binding contract. Unsupported unresolved parameters fail explicitly.

Hardware claims

The current software validation must not be interpreted as proof of universal QPU-level error correction, fault tolerance, or arbitrary unknown-noise reconstruction.

Reference assistance

The deterministic correction method is reference-assisted. It is not presented as blind reconstruction of an unknown ideal state from a single noisy observation.

---

Error Handling

quantasight intentionally fails closed when it cannot establish a safe semantic mapping.

High-level exceptions include:

quantasight.quantasightError
quantasight.UnsupportedMeasurementSemanticsError
quantasight.MeasurementReferenceMismatchError

UnsupportedMeasurementSemanticsError

Raised when a framework-native result or circuit measurement contract cannot safely be interpreted in the currently supported correction domain.

Examples include unsupported mid-circuit measurements, partial measurements, or ambiguous output semantics.

MeasurementReferenceMismatchError

Raised when the measured representation and reference representation cannot be reconciled safely, for example because their dimensions or validated measurement widths differ.

Developer Installation

For local development, clone or obtain the source tree and create a virtual environment.

Example:

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Upgrade packaging tools:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel

Install the project with all supported integrations:

pip install -e ".[all]"

Then verify the public import:

python -c "import quantasight; print(quantasight.__version__)"

Expected release version:

0.1.0

---

Testing

The test suite is designed to be executed from the project root.

python -m pytest -v

For measurement-semantic regression specifically:

python -m pytest tests/test_measurement_semantics.py -v

The project also uses public-API consumer-style validation to ensure the high-level facade can be exercised without importing internal quantasight components.

Recommended pre-release validation

Before publishing a release:

1. Run the complete regression suite.
2. Build the source distribution and wheel.
3. Create a fresh virtual environment outside the repository.
4. Install the generated wheel.
5. Verify import quantasight.
6. Install/use the desired framework extra.
7. Execute independent PennyLane, Qiskit, and Cirq consumer examples.
8. Confirm deterministic cross-framework reference parity for mathematically equivalent supported circuits.

Do not treat a repository-root PYTHONPATH test as a substitute for the final installed-wheel consumer test.

---

Design Principles

quantasight follows several design principles.

Framework independence

Framework-native circuits are converted into a common internal representation before deterministic reference propagation.

Explicit semantics

Numeric output alone is not enough to establish measurement meaning.

Fail closed

Ambiguous measurement contracts are rejected rather than guessed.

Deterministic reference separation

Reference propagation is separated from framework execution.

Canonical basis mapping

Framework-specific bit/wire conventions are normalized into a common canonical basis.

Immutable analytical results

Reference snapshots, residual results, projection results, metrics, provenance, audits, and final results are designed around immutable result objects.

Calculated metrics

Recovery percentages are calculated from errors rather than hardcoded.

Provenance-aware correction

Correction stages record their declared data sources and actions.

Scientific restraint

Algebraic recovery of a supplied contextual reference is distinguished from physical claims about arbitrary hardware noise.

---

Roadmap

Potential future development areas include:

• additional circuit operations,
• richer symbolic-parameter support,
• broader control-flow semantics,
• additional measurement domains,
• additional observable semantics,
• additional reference modes,
• clean-execution reference workflows,
• user-supplied reference workflows,

Disclaimer

quantasight is research and developer software.

The deterministic residual-projection mechanism is reference-assisted. Exact recovery of the supplied contextual expected reference under the deterministic residual definition is an algebraic property of that definition and must not be interpreted as a universal physical quantum error-correction guarantee.

Results obtained in simulation do not by themselves establish equivalent performance on real quantum hardware.

Users are responsible for validating quantasight, the underlying quantum framework, backend configuration, reference strategy, circuit semantics, numerical assumptions, and hardware behavior for their own application.
