qml.tape.OperationRecorder¶

class OperationRecorder(ops=None, measurements=None, shots=None)[source]¶

Bases: pennylane.tape.qscript.QuantumScript, pennylane.queuing.AnnotatedQueue

A template and quantum function inspector, allowing easy introspection of operators that have been applied without requiring a QNode.

Example:

The OperationRecorder is a context manager. Executing templates or quantum functions stores applied operators in the recorder, which can then be printed.

>>> shape = qml.templates.StronglyEntanglingLayers.shape(n_layers=1, n_wires=2)
>>> weights = np.random.random(shape)
>>>
>>> with OperationRecorder() as rec:
>>>    qml.templates.StronglyEntanglingLayers(weights, wires=[0, 1])

Alternatively, the queue attribute can be used to directly access the applied Operation and Observable objects.

batch_size¶

The batch size of the quantum script inferred from the batch sizes of the used operations for parameter broadcasting.

See also

batch_size for details.

Returns: The batch size of the quantum script if present, else None.
Return type: int or None

circuit¶

Returns the underlying quantum circuit as a list of operations and measurements.

The circuit is created with the assumptions that:

The operations attribute contains quantum operations and mid-circuit measurements and
The measurements attribute contains terminal measurements.

Note that the resulting list could contain MeasurementProcess objects that some devices may not support.

Returns: the quantum circuit containing quantum operations and measurements
Return type: list[Operator, MeasurementProcess]

data¶: Alias to get_parameters() and set_parameters() for backwards compatibilities with operations.

diagonalizing_gates¶

Returns the gates that diagonalize the measured wires such that they are in the eigenbasis of the circuit observables.

Returns: the operations that diagonalize the observables
Return type: List[Operation]

Examples

For a tape with a single observable, we get the diagonalizing gate of that observable:

>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([], [qml.expval(X(0))])
>>> tape.diagonalizing_gates
[Hadamard(wires=[0])]

If the tape includes multiple observables, they are each diagonalized individually:

>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([], [qml.expval(X(0)), qml.var(Y(1))])
>>> tape.diagonalizing_gates
[Hadamard(wires=[0]), Z(1), S(wires=[1]), Hadamard(wires=[1])]

Warning

If the tape contains multiple observables acting on the same wire, then tape.diagonalizing_gates will include multiple conflicting diagonalizations.

For example:

>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([], [qml.expval(X(0)), qml.var(Y(0))])
>>> tape.diagonalizing_gates
[Hadamard(wires=[0]), Z(0), S(wires=[0]), Hadamard(wires=[0])]

If it is relevant for your application, applying split_non_commuting() to a tape will split it into multiple tapes with only qubit-wise commuting observables.

Generally, composite operators are handled by diagonalizing their component parts, for example:

>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([], [qml.expval(X(0)+Y(1))])
>>> tape.diagonalizing_gates
[Hadamard(wires=[0]), Z(1), S(wires=[1]), Hadamard(wires=[1])]

However, for operators that contain multiple terms on the same wire, a single diagonalizing operator will be returned that diagonalizes the full operator as a unit:

>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([], [qml.expval(X(0)+Y(0))])
>>> tape.diagonalizing_gates
[QubitUnitary(array([[-0.70710678-0.j ,  0.5       -0.5j],
[-0.70710678-0.j , -0.5       +0.5j]]), wires=[0])]

graph¶

Returns a directed acyclic graph representation of the recorded quantum circuit:

>>> ops = [qml.StatePrep([0, 1], 0), qml.RX(0.432, 0)]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])
>>> qscript.graph
<pennylane.circuit_graph.CircuitGraph object at 0x7fcc0433a690>

Note that the circuit graph is only constructed once, on first call to this property, and cached for future use.

Returns: the circuit graph object
Return type: CircuitGraph

Type: int

measurements¶

Returns the measurements on the quantum script.

>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])
>>> qscript.measurements
[expval(Z(0))]

Returns: The numeric type corresponding to the result type of the quantum script, or a tuple of such types if the script contains multiple measurements
Return type: Union[type, Tuple[type]]

Example:

>>> dev = qml.device('default.qubit', wires=2)
>>> qs = QuantumScript(measurements=[qml.state()])
>>> qs.numeric_type
complex

obs_sharing_wires¶

Returns: list of observables with shared wires.
Return type: list[Observable]

obs_sharing_wires_id¶

Returns: list of indices from observables with shared wires.
Return type: list[int]

observables¶

Returns the observables on the quantum script.

Returns: list of observables
Return type: list[MeasurementProcess, Observable]]

Example

>>> ops = [qml.StatePrep([0, 1], 0), qml.RX(0.432, 0)]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])
>>> qscript.observables
[expval(Z(0))]

op_wires¶: Returns the wires that the tape operations act on.

operations¶

Returns the state preparations and operations on the quantum script.

Returns: quantum operations
Return type: list[Operator]

>>> ops = [qml.StatePrep([0, 1], 0), qml.RX(0.432, 0)]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])
>>> qscript.operations
[StatePrep([0, 1], wires=[0]), RX(0.432, wires=[0])]

output_dim¶: The (inferred) output dimension of the quantum script.

par_info¶

Returns the parameter information of the operations and measurements in the quantum script.

Returns: list of dictionaries with parameter information.
Return type: list[dict[str, Operator or int]]

Example

>>> ops = [qml.StatePrep([0, 1], 0), qml.RX(0.432, 0), qml.CNOT((0,1))]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])
>>> qscript.par_info
[{'op': StatePrep(array([0, 1]), wires=[0]), 'op_idx': 0, 'p_idx': 0},
{'op': RX(0.432, wires=[0]), 'op_idx': 1, 'p_idx': 0}]

Note that the operations and measurements included in this list are only the ones that have parameters

queue¶

samples_computational_basis¶: Determines if any of the measurements are in the computational basis.

shots¶

Returns a Shots object containing information about the number and batches of shots

Returns: Object with shot information
Return type: Shots

specs¶

Resource information about a quantum circuit.

Returns: dictionaries that contain quantum script specifications
Return type: dict[str, Union[defaultdict,int]]

Example

>>> ops = [qml.Hadamard(0), qml.RX(0.26, 1), qml.CNOT((1,0)),
...         qml.Rot(1.8, -2.7, 0.2, 0), qml.Hadamard(1), qml.CNOT((0, 1))]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0) @ qml.Z(1))])

Asking for the specs produces a dictionary of useful information about the circuit:

>>> qscript.specs['num_observables']
1
>>> qscript.specs['gate_sizes']
defaultdict(<class 'int'>, {1: 4, 2: 2})
>>> print(qscript.specs['resources'])
wires: 2
gates: 6
depth: 4
shots: Shots(total=None)
gate_types:
{'Hadamard': 2, 'RX': 1, 'CNOT': 2, 'Rot': 1}
gate_sizes:
{1: 4, 2: 2}

trainable_params¶

Store or return a list containing the indices of parameters that support differentiability. The indices provided match the order of appearance in the quantum circuit.

Setting this property can help reduce the number of quantum evaluations needed to compute the Jacobian; parameters not marked as trainable will be automatically excluded from the Jacobian computation.

The number of trainable parameters determines the number of parameters passed to set_parameters(), and changes the default output size of method get_parameters().

Note

For devices that support native backpropagation (such as default.qubit and default.mixed), this property contains no relevant information when using backpropagation to compute gradients.

Example

>>> ops = [qml.RX(0.432, 0), qml.RY(0.543, 0),
...        qml.CNOT((0,"a")), qml.RX(0.133, "a")]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])
>>> qscript.trainable_params
[0, 1, 2]
>>> qscript.trainable_params = [0] # set only the first parameter as trainable
>>> qscript.get_parameters()
[0.432]

bind_new_parameters(params, indices)¶

Create a new tape with updated parameters.

This function takes a list of new parameters as input, and returns a new QuantumScript containing the new parameters at the provided indices, with the parameters at all other indices remaining the same.

Parameters

params (Sequence[TensorLike]) – New parameters to create the tape with. This must have the same length as indices.
indices (Sequence[int]) – The parameter indices to update with the given parameters. The index of a parameter is defined as its index in tape.get_parameters().

Returns

New tape with updated parameters

Return type

tape.QuantumScript

Example

>>> ops = [qml.RX(0.432, 0), qml.RY(0.543, 0),
...        qml.CNOT((0,"a")), qml.RX(0.133, "a")]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])

>>> new_qscript.get_parameters()
[0.1, 0.2, 0.3]

The original qscript remains unchanged:

>>> qscript.get_parameters()
[0.432, 0.543, 0.133]

A subset of parameters can be modified as well, defined by the parameter indices:

>>> newer_qscript = new_qscript.bind_new_parameters([-0.1, 0.5], [0, 2])
>>> newer_qscript.get_parameters()
[-0.1, 0.2, 0.5]

clear() → None. Remove all items from od.¶

copy(copy_operations=False, **update)¶

Returns a copy of the quantum script. If any attributes are defined via keyword argument, those are used on the new tape - otherwise, all attributes match the original tape. The copy is a shallow copy if copy_operations is False and no tape attributes are updated via keyword argument.

Parameters

copy_operations (bool) – If True, the operations are also shallow copied. Otherwise, if False, the copied operations will simply be references to the original operations; changing the parameters of one script will likewise change the parameters of all copies. If any keyword arguments are passed to update, this argument will be treated as True.

Keyword Arguments

operations (Iterable[Operator]) – An iterable of the operations to be performed. If provided, these operations will replace the copied operations on the new tape.
measurements (Iterable[MeasurementProcess]) – All the measurements to be performed. If provided, these measurements will replace the copied measurements on the new tape.
shots (None, int, Sequence[int], Shots) – Number and/or batches of shots for execution. If provided, these shots will replace the copied shots on the new tape.
trainable_params (None, Sequence[int]) – The indices for which parameters are trainable. If provided, these parameter indices will replace the copied parameter indices on the new tape.

Returns

A copy of the quantum script, with modified attributes if specified by keyword argument.

Return type

QuantumScript

Example

tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript(
    ops= [qml.X(0), qml.Y(1)],
    measurements=[qml.expval(qml.Z(0))],
    shots=2000)

new_tape = tape.copy(measurements=[qml.expval(qml.X(1))])

>>> tape.measurements
[qml.expval(qml.Z(0)]

>>> new_tape.measurements
[qml.expval(qml.X(1))]

>>> new_tape.shots
Shots(total_shots=2000, shot_vector=(ShotCopies(2000 shots x 1),))

draw(wire_order=None, show_all_wires=False, decimals=None, max_length=100, show_matrices=True)¶

Draw the quantum script as a circuit diagram. See tape_text() for more information.

Parameters

wire_order (Sequence[Any]) – the order (from top to bottom) to print the wires of the circuit
show_all_wires (bool) – If True, all wires, including empty wires, are printed.
decimals (int) – How many decimal points to include when formatting operation parameters. Default None will omit parameters from operation labels.
max_length (Int) – Maximum length of a individual line. After this length, the diagram will begin anew beneath the previous lines.
show_matrices=True (bool) – show matrix valued parameters below all circuit diagrams

Returns

the circuit representation of the quantum script

Return type

str

expand(depth=1, stop_at=None, expand_measurements=False)¶

Expand all operations to a specific depth.

Parameters

depth (int) – the depth the script should be expanded
stop_at (Callable) – A function which accepts a queue object, and returns True if this object should not be expanded. If not provided, all objects that support expansion will be expanded.
expand_measurements (bool) – If True, measurements will be expanded to basis rotations and computational basis measurements.

Usage Details

>>> ops = [qml.Permute((2,1,0), wires=(0,1,2)), qml.X(0)]
>>> measurements = [qml.expval(qml.X(0))]
>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript(ops, measurements)
>>> expanded_tape = tape.expand()
>>> print(expanded_tape.draw())
0: ─╭SWAP──Rϕ──RX──Rϕ─┤  <X>
2: ─╰SWAP─────────────┤

Specifying a depth greater than one decomposes operations multiple times.

>>> expanded_tape2 = tape.expand(depth=2)
>>> print(expanded_tape2.draw())
0: ─╭●─╭X─╭●──RZ──GlobalPhase──RX──RZ──GlobalPhase─┤  <Z>
2: ─╰X─╰●─╰X──────GlobalPhase──────────GlobalPhase─┤

The stop_at callable allows the specification of terminal operations that should no longer be decomposed. In this example, the X operator is not decomposed because stop_at(qml.X(0)) == True.

>>> def stop_at(obj):
...     return isinstance(obj, qml.X)
>>> expanded_tape = tape.expand(stop_at=stop_at)
>>> print(expanded_tape.draw())
0: ─╭SWAP──X─┤  <X>
2: ─╰SWAP────┤

Warning

If an operator does not have a decomposition, it will not be decomposed, even if stop_at(obj) == False. If you want to decompose to reach a certain gateset, you will need an extra validation pass to ensure you have reached the gateset.

>>> def stop_at(obj):
...     return getattr(obj, "name", "") in {"RX", "RY"}
>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([qml.RZ(0.1, 0)])
>>> tape.expand(stop_at=stop_at).circuit
[RZ(0.1, wires=[0])]

If more than one observable exists on a wire, the diagonalizing gates will be applied and the observable will be substituted for an analogous combination of qml.Z operators. This will happen even if expand_measurements=False.

>>> mps = [qml.expval(qml.X(0)), qml.expval(qml.X(0) @ qml.X(1))]
>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([], mps)
>>> expanded_tape = tape.expand()
>>> print(expanded_tape.draw())
0: ──RY─┤  <Z> ╭<Z@Z>
1: ──RY─┤      ╰<Z@Z>

Setting expand_measurements=True applies any diagonalizing gates and converts the measurement into a wires+eigvals representation.

Warning

Many components of PennyLane do not support the wires + eigvals representation. Setting expand_measurements=True should be used with extreme caution.

>>> tape = qml.tape.QuantumScript([], [qml.expval(qml.X(0))])
>>> tape.expand(expand_measurements=True).circuit
[Hadamard(wires=[0]), expval(eigvals=[ 1. -1.], wires=[0])]

classmethod from_queue(queue, shots=None)¶: Construct a QuantumScript from an AnnotatedQueue.

fromkeys(value=None)¶: Create a new ordered dictionary with keys from iterable and values set to value.

get(key, default=None, /)¶: Return the value for key if key is in the dictionary, else default.

get_info(obj)¶: Retrieve the metadata for obj. Raises a QueuingError if obj is not in the queue.

get_operation(idx)¶

Returns the trainable operation, the operation index and the corresponding operation argument index, for a specified trainable parameter index.

Parameters: idx (int) – the trainable parameter index
Returns: tuple containing the corresponding operation, operation index and an integer representing the argument index, for the provided trainable parameter.
Return type: tuple[Operation, int, int]

get_parameters(trainable_only=True, operations_only=False, **kwargs)¶

Return the parameters incident on the quantum script operations.

The returned parameters are provided in order of appearance on the quantum script.

Parameters

trainable_only (bool) – if True, returns only trainable parameters
operations_only (bool) – if True, returns only the parameters of the operations excluding parameters to observables of measurements

Example

>>> ops = [qml.RX(0.432, 0), qml.RY(0.543, 0),
...        qml.CNOT((0,"a")), qml.RX(0.133, "a")]
>>> qscript = QuantumScript(ops, [qml.expval(qml.Z(0))])

By default, all parameters are trainable and will be returned:

>>> qscript.get_parameters()
[0.432, 0.543, 0.133]

Setting the trainable parameter indices will result in only the specified parameters being returned:

>>> qscript.trainable_params = [1] # set the second parameter as trainable
>>> qscript.get_parameters()
[0.543]

The trainable_only argument can be set to False to instead return all parameters:

>>> qscript.get_parameters(trainable_only=False)
[0.432, 0.543, 0.133]

items() → a set-like object providing a view on D's items¶

keys() → a set-like object providing a view on D's keys¶

map_to_standard_wires()¶

Map a circuit’s wires such that they are in a standard order. If no mapping is required, the unmodified circuit is returned.

Returns: The circuit with wires in the standard order
Return type: QuantumScript

The standard order is defined by the operator wires being increasing integers starting at zero, to match array indices. If there are any measurement wires that are not in any operations, those will be mapped to higher values.

Example:

>>> circuit = qml.tape.QuantumScript([qml.X("a")], [qml.expval(qml.Z("b"))])
>>> circuit.map_to_standard_wires().circuit
[X(0), expval(Z(1))]

If any measured wires are not in any operations, they will be mapped last:

>>> circuit = qml.tape.QuantumScript([qml.X(1)], [qml.probs(wires=[0, 1])])
>>> circuit.map_to_standard_wires().circuit
[X(0), probs(wires=[1, 0])]

If no wire-mapping is needed, then the returned circuit is the inputted circuit:

>>> circuit = qml.tape.QuantumScript([qml.X(0)], [qml.expval(qml.Z(1))])
>>> circuit.map_to_standard_wires() is circuit
True

move_to_end(key, last=True)¶

Move an existing element to the end (or beginning if last is false).

Raise KeyError if the element does not exist.

pop(key[, default]) → v, remove specified key and return the corresponding value.¶: If the key is not found, return the default if given; otherwise, raise a KeyError.

popitem(last=True)¶

Remove and return a (key, value) pair from the dictionary.

Pairs are returned in LIFO order if last is true or FIFO order if false.

remove(obj)¶: Remove obj from the queue. Passes silently if the object is not in the queue.

setdefault(key, default=None)¶

Insert key with a value of default if key is not in the dictionary.

Return the value for key if key is in the dictionary, else default.

shape(device)¶

Produces the output shape of the quantum script by inspecting its measurements and the device used for execution.

Note

The computed shape is not stored because the output shape may be dependent on the device used for execution.

Parameters: device (pennylane.devices.Device) – the device that will be used for the script execution
Returns: the output shape(s) of the quantum script result
Return type: Union[tuple[int], tuple[tuple[int]]]

Examples

>>> dev = qml.device('default.qubit', wires=2)
>>> qs = QuantumScript(measurements=[qml.state()])
>>> qs.shape(dev)
(4,)
>>> m = [qml.state(), qml.expval(qml.Z(0)), qml.probs((0,1))]
>>> qs = QuantumScript(measurements=m)
>>> qs.shape(dev)
((4,), (), (4,))

to_openqasm(wires=None, rotations=True, measure_all=True, precision=None)¶

Serialize the circuit as an OpenQASM 2.0 program.

Measurements are assumed to be performed on all qubits in the computational basis. An optional rotations argument can be provided so that output of the OpenQASM circuit is diagonal in the eigenbasis of the quantum script’s observables. The measurement outputs can be restricted to only those specified in the script by setting measure_all=False.

Note

The serialized OpenQASM program assumes that gate definitions in qelib1.inc are available.

Parameters

wires (Wires or None) – the wires to use when serializing the circuit
rotations (bool) – in addition to serializing user-specified operations, also include the gates that diagonalize the measured wires such that they are in the eigenbasis of the circuit observables.
measure_all (bool) – whether to perform a computational basis measurement on all qubits or just those specified in the script
precision (int) – decimal digits to display for parameters

Returns

OpenQASM serialization of the circuit

Return type

str

update([E, ]**F) → None. Update D from dict/iterable E and F.¶: If E is present and has a .keys() method, then does: for k in E: D[k] = E[k] If E is present and lacks a .keys() method, then does: for k, v in E: D[k] = v In either case, this is followed by: for k in F: D[k] = F[k]

update_info(obj, **kwargs)¶: Update obj’s metadata with kwargs if it exists in the queue.
