logl_per_circuit(model, dataset, circuits=None, min_prob_clip=1e-06, prob_clip_interval=(-1000000.0, 1000000.0), radius=0.0001, poisson_picture=True, op_label_aliases=None, wildcard=None, mdc_store=None, comm=None, mem_limit=None)#

Computes the per-circuit log-likelihood contribution for a set of circuits.

Parameters:

  • model (Model) – Model of parameterized gates

  • dataset (DataSet) – Probability data

  • circuits (list of (tuples or Circuits), optional) – Each element specifies a circuit to include in the log-likelihood sum. Default value of None implies all the circuits in dataset should be used.

  • min_prob_clip (float, optional) – The minimum probability treated normally in the evaluation of the log-likelihood. A penalty function replaces the true log-likelihood for probabilities that lie below this threshold so that the log-likelihood never becomes undefined (which improves optimizer performance).

  • prob_clip_interval (2-tuple or None, optional) – (min,max) values used to clip the probabilities predicted by models during MLEGST’s search for an optimal model (if not None). if None, no clipping is performed.

  • radius (float, optional) – Specifies the severity of rounding used to “patch” the zero-frequency terms of the log-likelihood.

  • poisson_picture (boolean, optional) – Whether the log-likelihood-in-the-Poisson-picture terms should be included in the returned logl value.

  • op_label_aliases (dictionary, optional) – Dictionary whose keys are operation label “aliases” and whose values are tuples corresponding to what that operation label should be expanded into before querying the dataset. Defaults to the empty dictionary (no aliases defined) e.g. op_label_aliases[‘Gx^3’] = (‘Gx’,’Gx’,’Gx’)

  • wildcard (WildcardBudget) – A wildcard budget to apply to this log-likelihood computation. This increases the returned log-likelihood value by adjusting (by a maximal amount measured in TVD, given by the budget) the probabilities produced by model to optimially match the data (within the bugetary constraints) evaluating the log-likelihood.

  • mdc_store (ModelDatasetCircuitsStore, optional) – An object that bundles cached quantities along with a given model, dataset, and circuit list. If given, model and dataset and circuits should be set to None.

  • comm (mpi4py.MPI.Comm, optional) – When not None, an MPI communicator for distributing the computation across multiple processors.

  • mem_limit (int, optional) – A rough memory limit in bytes which restricts the amount of intermediate values that are computed and stored.

Returns:

Array of length either len(circuits) or len(dataset.keys()). Values are the log-likelihood contributions of the corresponding circuit aggregated over outcomes.

Return type:

numpy.ndarray
