An ``Experiment`` is composed of: - A main ``Program`` body (or ansatz). - A collection of ``ExperimentSetting`` objects, each of which encodes a particular state preparation and measurement. - A ``SymmetrizationLevel`` for enacting different readout symmetrization strategies. - A number of shots to collect for each (unsymmetrized) ``ExperimentSetting``. Because the main ``Program`` is static from run to run of an ``Experiment``, we can leverage our platform's Parametric Compilation feature. This means that the ``Program`` can be compiled only once, and the various alterations due to state preparation, measurement, and symmetrization can all be realized at runtime by providing a ``memory_map``. Thus, the steps in the ``experiment`` method are as follows: 1. Generate a parameterized program corresponding to the ``Experiment`` (see the ``Experiment.generate_experiment_program()`` method for more details on how it changes the main body program to support state preparation, measurement, and symmetrization). 2. Compile the parameterized program into a parametric (binary) executable, which contains declared variables that can be assigned at runtime. 3. For each ``ExperimentSetting`` in the ``Experiment``, we repeat the following: a. Build a collection of memory maps that correspond to the various state preparation, measurement, and symmetrization specifications. b. Run the parametric executable on the QVM or QPU backend, providing the memory map to assign variables at runtime. c. Extract the desired statistics from the classified bitstrings that are produced by the QVM or QPU backend, and package them in an ``ExperimentResult`` object. 3. Return the list of ``ExperimentResult`` objects.

[docs] def run_symmetrized_readout( self, program: Program, trials: int, symm_type: int = 3, meas_qubits: Optional[List[int]] = None, ) -> np.ndarray: r""" Run a quil program in such a way that the readout error is made symmetric. Enforcing symmetric readout error is useful in simplifying the assumptions in some near term error mitigation strategies, see ``measure_observables`` for more information. The simplest example is for one qubit. In a noisy quantum_processor, the probability of accurately reading the 0 state might be higher than that of the 1 state; due to e.g. amplitude damping. This makes correcting for readout more difficult. In the simplest case, this function runs the program normally ``(trials//2)`` times. The other half of the time, it will insert an ``X`` gate prior to any ``MEASURE`` instruction and then flip the measured classical bit back. Overall this has the effect of symmetrizing the readout error. The details. Consider preparing the input bitstring ``|i>`` (in the computational basis) and measuring in the Z basis. Then the Confusion matrix for the readout error is specified by the probabilities p(j|i) := Pr(measured = j | prepared = i ). In the case of a single qubit i,j \in [0,1] then: there is no readout error if p(0|0) = p(1|1) = 1. the readout error is symmetric if p(0|0) = p(1|1) = 1 - epsilon. the readout error is asymmetric if p(0|0) != p(1|1). If your quantum computer has this kind of asymmetric readout error then ``qc.run_symmetrized_readout`` will symmetrize the readout error. The readout error above is only asymmetric on a single bit. In practice the confusion matrix on n bits need not be symmetric, e.g. for two qubits p(ij|ij) != 1 - epsilon for all i,j. In these situations a more sophisticated means of symmetrization is needed; and we use orthogonal arrays (OA) built from Hadamard matrices. The symmetrization types are specified by an int; the types available are: -1 -- exhaustive symmetrization uses every possible combination of flips 0 -- trivial that is no symmetrization 1 -- symmetrization using an OA with strength 1 2 -- symmetrization using an OA with strength 2 3 -- symmetrization using an OA with strength 3 In the context of readout symmetrization the strength of the orthogonal array enforces the symmetry of the marginal confusion matrices. By default a strength 3 OA is used; this ensures expectations of the form ``<b_k . b_j . b_i>`` for bits any bits i,j,k will have symmetric readout errors. Here expectation of a random variable x as is denote ``<x> = sum_i Pr(i) x_i``. It turns out that a strength 3 OA is also a strength 2 and strength 1 OA it also ensures ``<b_j . b_i>`` and ``<b_i>`` have symmetric readout errors for any bits b_j and b_i. :param program: The program to run symmetrized readout on. :param trials: The minimum number of times to run the program; it is recommend that this number should be in the hundreds or thousands.
