(a) Comparison between sample solution circuits generated by GASP and Qiskit for a 6 qubit W state. GASP produced a circuit with a depth of 22 and 59 gates, and Qiskit produced a circuit with a depth of 120 and 125 gates. Note: these are circuits before compilation on real hardware. (b) Comparison between Qiskit and GASP (99% fidelity) resultant distributions with no noise for a 6 qubit W state. The grey dashed line is the exact distribution, the orange bars are GASP, and the blue bars are Qiskit. (c) Comparison between Qiskit and GASP (99% fidelity) resultant distributions in the presence of noise for a 6 qubit W state. The noise model is that of IBM’s ibmq_guadalupe machine. 16,384 shots were used. The grey dashed line is the exact distribution without noise, the orange bars are GASP, and the blue bars are Qiskit. (d) Comparison between the Qiskit and GASP (99% fidelity) for W-states as the number of qubits varied from 2 to 10. (e) Comparison between GASP (99% fidelity) and Qiskit for W-states as the number of qubits varied from 2 to 10. Lines represent simulations with noise, crosses represent results from IBM’s ibmq_guadalupe machine. 16,384 shots were used. The noise model is that of IBM’s ibmq_guadalupe machine.
