Description:
PennyLaneCirq 0.36.0.post0
The PennyLane-Cirq plugin integrates the Cirq quantum computing framework with PennyLane’s
quantum machine learning capabilities.
PennyLane is a cross-platform Python library for quantum machine
learning, automatic differentiation, and optimization of hybrid quantum-classical computations.
Cirq is a software library for quantum computing.
The plugin documentation can be found here: https://docs.pennylane.ai/projects/cirq.
Features
Provides access to built-in Cirq backends including cirq.simulator and cirq.mixedsimulator
Provides access to Pasqal’s neutral-atom devices via cirq.pasqal
Provides access to the simulators qsim and qsimh via the cirq.qsim and cirq.qsimh devices
Support for all PennyLane core functionality
Installation
This plugin requires Python version 3.9 or above, as well as PennyLane
and Cirq. Installation of this plugin, as well as all dependencies, can be done using pip:
$ pip install pennylane-cirq
Alternatively, you can install PennyLane-Cirq from the source code
by navigating to the top directory and running:
$ python setup.py install
Dependencies
PennyLane-Cirq requires the following libraries be installed:
Python >= 3.9
as well as the following Python packages:
PennyLane >= 0.17
Cirq >= 0.10.0
To use the qsim and qsimh devices, the qsim-Cirq interface qsimcirq is required:
qsimcirq
It can be installed using pip:
$ pip install qsimcirq
If you currently do not have Python 3 installed, we recommend
Anaconda for Python 3, a distributed version of Python packaged
for scientific computation.
Tests
To test that the PennyLane-Cirq plugin is working correctly you can run
$ make test
in the source folder.
