OptimizedDriveShaper(instance, config, backend)

Bases: BaseDriveShaper

Drive shaper that uses optimization to find the best drive parameters for solving QUBOs. Returns an optimized drive, the bitstrings, their counts, probabilities, and costs.

ATTRIBUTE	DESCRIPTION
drive	current drive. TYPE: Drive
best_cost	Current best cost. TYPE: float
best_bitstring	Current best bitstring. TYPE: Tensor | list
bitstrings	List of current bitstrings obtained. TYPE: Tensor | list
counts	Frequencies of bitstrings. TYPE: Tensor | list
probabilities	Probabilities of bitstrings. TYPE: Tensor | list
costs	Qubo cost. TYPE: Tensor | list
optimized_custom_qubo_cost	Apply a different qubo cost evaluation during optimization. Must be defined as: def optimized_custom_qubo_cost(bitstring: str, QUBO: torch.Tensor) -> float. Defaults to None, meaning we use the default QUBO evaluation. TYPE: Callable[[str, Tensor], float]
optimized_custom_objective_fn	For bayesian optimization, one can change the output of self.run_simulation to optimize differently. Instead of using the best cost out of the samples, one can change the objective for an average, or any function out of the form cost_eval = optimized_custom_objective_fn(bitstrings, counts, probabilities, costs, best_cost, best_bitstring) Defaults to None, which means we optimize using the best cost out of the samples. TYPE: Callable[[list, list, list, list, float, str], float]
optimized_callback_objective	Apply a callback during bayesian optimization. Only accepts one input dictionary created during optimization d = {"x": x, "cost_eval": cost_eval} hence should be defined as: def callback_fn(d: dict) -> None: Defaults to None, which means no callback is applied.

Embedding

BLaDEmbedder(instance, config, backend)

Bases: BaseEmbedder

BLaDE (Balanced Latently Dimensional Embedder)

Computes positions for nodes so that their interactions according to a device approach the desired values at best. The result can be used as an embedding. Its prior target is on interaction matrices or QUBOs, but it can also be used for MIS with limitations if the adjacency matrix is converted into a QUBO. The general principle is based on the Fruchterman-Reingold algorithm.

Abstract base class for all embedders.

Prepares the geometry (register) of atoms based on the QUBO instance. Returns a Register compatible with Pasqal/Pulser devices.

GreedyEmbedder(instance, config, backend)

Bases: BaseEmbedder

Create an embedding in a greedy fashion.

At each step, place one logical node onto one trap to minimize the incremental mismatch between the logical QUBO matrix Q and the physical interaction matrix U (approx. C / ||r_i - r_j||^6).
