Synthesize Linear Function circuit

Returns a task ID; use the '/linear_functions/synthesize/{taskId}' endpoint to get the result.

Query Parameters

Name, TypeDescription
model
string

backend
string

The name of the backend. Refer to https://docs.quantum.ibm.com/run/get-backend-information.

topology
string

qubits
integer

check_result
boolean

If true, the reinforcement learning (RL) model checks the result before returning a response.

Default value: false
n_steps
integer

The number of attempts (steps) that the RL model should perform to find the best synthesized circuit. More steps could give a better result (not guaranteed) but it will take more time.

keep_layout
boolean

Default value: true
