class ResourceAliasSampling(num_coeffs, precision=None, wires=None)[source]

Bases: ResourceOperator

Resource class for preparing a state using coherent alias sampling.

Parameters:
  • num_coeffs (int) – the number of unique coefficients in the state

  • precision (float) – the precision with which the coefficients are loaded

  • wires (Sequence[int], optional) – the wires the operation acts on

Resources:

The resources are obtained from Section III D in arXiv:1805.03662. The circuit uses coherent alias sampling to prepare a state with the given coefficients.

Example

The resources for this operation are computed using:

>>> alias_sampling = plre.ResourceAliasSampling(num_coeffs=100)
>>> print(plre.estimate(alias_sampling))
