Gradient

class Gradient(grad_method='param_shift', **kwargs)

Bases : GradientBase

Convert an operator expression to the first-order gradient.

Paramètres

• grad_method (Union[str, CircuitGradient]) – The method used to compute the state/probability gradient. Can be either 'param_shift' or 'lin_comb' or 'fin_diff'. Ignored for gradients w.r.t observable parameters.

• kwargs (dict) – Optional parameters for a CircuitGradient

Lève

ValueError – If method != fin_diff and epsilon is not None.

Methods Defined Here

convert	type operator OperatorBase
get_gradient	Get the gradient for the given operator w.r.t.
