OptimizeCliffords

OptimizeCliffords(*args, **kwargs)

GitHub(opens in a new tab)

Bases: qiskit.transpiler.basepasses.TransformationPass

Combine consecutive Cliffords over the same qubits. This serves as an example of extra capabilities enabled by storing Cliffords natively on the circuit.


Methods

name

OptimizeCliffords.name()

Return the name of the pass.

run

OptimizeCliffords.run(dag)

Run the OptimizeCliffords pass on dag.

Parameters

dag (DAGCircuit) – the DAG to be optimized.

Returns

the optimized DAG.

Return type

DAGCircuit


Attributes

is_analysis_pass

Check if the pass is an analysis pass.

If the pass is an AnalysisPass, that means that the pass can analyze the DAG and write the results of that analysis in the property set. Modifications on the DAG are not allowed by this kind of pass.

is_transformation_pass

Check if the pass is a transformation pass.

If the pass is a TransformationPass, that means that the pass can manipulate the DAG, but cannot modify the property set (but it can be read).
