VQEAlgorithm

File:: vqe.vqe_algorithm.py Tags:: algorithm vqe

Description

This implements the full handling of the VQE algorithm, dealing with a SamplingVQE implementation (but allowing for other strategies in the future). It contains all config information and necessary data, classes and callables to both run the algorithm in a hardware interface and connect with the rest of the software.

Connected Classes

VQHAlgorithm, SamplingVQE

Attributes

• protocol: VQHProtocol

Methods

• return_optimizer - COBYLA, SPSA, etc…
• iteration_callback - part of the pipeline to send the iteration data back to VQHSource
• run_segmented - DEPRECATED FUNCTION
