BaseReadoutMitigator

class qiskit.result.BaseReadoutMitigator

GitHub

Bases: ABC

Base readout error mitigator class.


Methods

expectation_value

abstract expectation_value(data, diagonal, qubits=None, clbits=None, shots=None)

GitHub

Calculate the expectation value of a diagonal Hermitian operator.

Parameters

  • data (Counts) – Counts object to be mitigated.
  • diagonal (Callable |dict |str |ndarray) – the diagonal operator. This may either be specified as a string containing I,Z,0,1 characters, or as a real valued 1D array_like object supplying the full diagonal, or as a dictionary, or as Callable.
  • qubits (Iterable[int] | None) – the physical qubits measured to obtain the counts clbits. If None these are assumed to be qubits [0, …, N-1] for N-bit counts.
  • clbits (List[int] | None) – Optional, marginalize counts to just these bits.
  • shots (int | None) – Optional, the total number of shots, if None shots will be calculated as the sum of all counts.

Returns

The mean and an upper bound of the standard deviation of operator expectation value calculated from the current counts.

Return type

Tuple[float, float]

quasi_probabilities

abstract quasi_probabilities(data, qubits=None, clbits=None, shots=None)

GitHub

Convert counts to a dictionary of quasi-probabilities

Parameters

  • data (Counts) – Counts to be mitigated.
  • qubits (Iterable[int] | None) – the physical qubits measured to obtain the counts clbits. If None these are assumed to be qubits [0, …, N-1] for N-bit counts.
  • clbits (List[int] | None) – Optional, marginalize counts to just these bits.
  • shots (int | None) – Optional, the total number of shots, if None shots will be calculated as the sum of all counts.

Returns

A dictionary containing pairs of [output, mean] where “output”

is the key in the dictionaries, which is the length-N bitstring of a measured standard basis state, and “mean” is the mean of non-zero quasi-probability estimates.

Return type

QuasiDistribution
