Overview

orqviz

A Python package for easily visualizing the loss landscape of Variational Quantum Algorithms by Zapata Computing Inc.

orqviz provides a collection of tools which quantum researchers and enthusiasts alike can use for their simulations. It works with any framework for running quantum circuits, for example qiskit, cirq, pennylane, and Orquestra. The package contains functions to generate data, as well as a range of flexible plotting and helper functions. orqviz is light-weight and has very few dependencies.

Getting started

In doc/examples/ we provide a range of Jupyter notebook examples for orqviz. We have four Jupyter notebooks with tutorials for how to get started with any quantum circuit simulation framework you might use. You will find examples with qiskit, cirq, pennylane and Zapata's Orquestra library. The tutorials are not exhaustive, but they do provide a full story that you can follow along.

In this notebook we have the Sombrero example that we showcase in our paper. We also have an advanced example notebook which provides a thorough demonstration of the flexibility of the orqviz package.

We recently published a paper on arXiv where we review the tools available with orqviz:
ORQVIZ: Visualizing High-Dimensional Landscapes in Variational Quantum Algorithms

Installation

You can install our package using the following command:

pip install orqviz

Alternatively you can build the package from source. This is especially helpful if you would like to contribute to orqviz

git clone https://github.com/zapatacomputing/orqviz.git
cd orqviz
pip install -e ./

Examples

import orqviz
import numpy as np

np.random.seed(42)

def loss_function(pars):
    return np.sum(np.cos(pars))**2 + np.sum(np.sin(30*pars))**2

n_params = 42
params = np.random.uniform(-np.pi, np.pi, size=n_params)
dir1 = orqviz.geometric.get_random_normal_vector(n_params)
dir2 = orqviz.geometric.get_random_orthonormal_vector(dir1)

scan2D_result = orqviz.scans.perform_2D_scan(params, loss_function,
                                direction_x=dir1, direction_y=dir2,
                                n_steps_x=100)
orqviz.scans.plot_2D_scan_result(scan2D_result)

This code results in the following plot:

Comments

Use transpile to build circuit only once

Despite being wrapped up in a lambda function, the get_circuit function is actually still called for every function evaluation during plot generation or optimization, and hence the circuit is rebuilt each time. This rather defeats the concept of late binding of the parameter values. The PR uses a slightly different approach using the transpile function. The code is arguably more transparent than using the lambda function wrapper. Evaluation is faster now, but for this simple case rarely more than 10%. One downside, the circuit cannot be plotted anymore in a simple way.

ci: add step with Pythonic cruft cleanup

Apparently, issues that we had with mypy stem from Github Actions caching some (?) directories (thanks @alexjuda for pointing this out!). This PR adds a cleaning step (taken from z-quantum-actions) that deletes potentially conflicting directories.

Clean notebooks

These are the once-run versions of the cirq and qiskit notebooks derived from the 'simplified qiskit get_circuit() return' commit from the main branch. I hope this works for you. If not, then I apologize, When it comes to git I still suffer from sas every now and then.

Loss function clarity
Goals of this draft PR:

Allow parameters to be any np.ndarray rather than strictly a 1D np.ndarray

Improve docstrings for what we define as a loss function

Improve README to specify what we define as a loss function, and how to wrap their loss function with functools.partial

Alternatively, allow loss_function_kwargs in the scanning functions that we pass to the loss_function with more than one argument.

Utilize tqdm progress bar when verbose=True during scans.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We should replace the print calls when verbose=True in scans with tqdm from the tqdm library. Alternatively, we make it the default and find a way to mute the library's prints.

Describe the solution you'd like

verbose = True # or False for it in tqdm(range(n_iters), disable = not verbose): ... # run scans

Additional context Our verbosity options are currently very rudimentary and tqdm is one of the most used Python libraries.

This repo should contain Issues for how people can contribute

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, when people enter the orqviz GitHub repository with the intent to contribute, there are no open Issues and not many PRs. They will not know what might be low-hanging fruit to contribute.

Describe the solution you'd like We (orqviz developers) should open Issues which are connected to how people can concretely contribute. For example, we could provide links to existing tutorials which we believe can be readily enhanced with our visualization techniques. In such cases, potential contributors could work on such enhancements and reach out to the authors of the original tutorials. Similarly, we can elaborate on future visualization techniques which we could experiment with. This may be done by external contributors.
