Release 0.2.0 (current release)¶
New features since last release¶
The Jet interpreter for XIR scripts now accepts a
dimension
option for CV circuits. (#47)The Jet interpreter for XIR programs now supports a
probabilities
output. (#44)The
Circuit
class now supports taking the expected value of an observable. (#46)The Jet interpreter for XIR scripts now handles gate definitions. (#37)
Full and sliced contractions can now be run with
TaskBasedContractor
on the GPU using theCudaTensor
class. (#29)CudaTensor now supports
Transpose
calls. (#42)Full and sliced contractions can now be run with
TaskBasedContractor
on the GPU using theCudaTensor
class. (#29)The
TaskBasedCpuContractor
class has been renamed toTaskBasedContractor
. (#29)An
XIRProgram
which declares the gates supported by Jet is now bundled with thejet
Python package. (#34)The
jet
Python package now includes an interpreter for XIR programs. (#24)Gates may now be instantiated by name using the
GateFactory
Python class. (#23)Quantum circuit and state models have been added to the
jet
Python package. (#21)Quantum gate models have been added to the
jet
Python package. (#16)Python bindings are now available for the
TaskBasedCpuContractor
class. (#19)Python bindings now include a factory method which accepts a
dtype
parameter. (#18)Running
make build
from thepython
directory now creates a Python distribution package. (#13)A new intermediate representation (IR) is added, including a parser, IR representation program, and a Strawberry Fields interface. (#11)
Python bindings are now available for the
TensorNetworkSerializer
class. (#5)Python bindings are now available for the
TensorNetwork
andPathInfo
classes (#7)Python bindings are now available for the
Tensor
class. (#2)Running CMake with
-DBUILD_PYTHON=ON
now generates Python bindings within ajet
package. (#1)
Improvements¶
The Jet interpreter for XIR programs now uses the task-based contractor. (#44)
CudaTensor
SliceIndex
calls now avoid intermediate CPU transfer operations. (#42)A Python (Ubuntu) test report is now generated alongside the C++ (Ubuntu) test report. (#39)
Tensor transposes are now significantly faster when all the dimensions are powers of two. (#12)
Use camel case for type aliases. (#17)
Exceptions are now favoured in place of
std::terminate
withException
being the new base type for all exceptions thrown by Jet. (#3)TaskBasedCpuContractor
now storesTensor
results. (#8)Tensor
class now checks data type at compile-time. (#4)
Breaking Changes¶
The Jet interpreter for XIR scripts now requires an amplitude state to be specified as an array. (#45)
The Jet interpreter for XIR scripts is now case-sensitive with respect to gate names. (#36)
Python bindings for
complex<float>
andcomplex<double>
specializations are now suffixed withC64
andC128
, respectively. (#15)Indices are now specified in row-major order. (#10)
Bug Fixes¶
The Jet and XIR Python packages can now be installed from a source distribution. (#38)
An issue with the
CudaTensor
indices was fixed when converting between the CPUTensor
class. (#29)The Jet versions returned by
Jet::Version()
(C++) andjet.Version()
(Python) are now correct. (#26)The documentation build no longer emits any Doxygen warnings. (#25)
Running
make build
in thepython
directory now correctly uses the virtual environment. (#31)The output of
TensorNetwork::Contract()
andTaskBasedCpuContractor::Contract()
now agree with external packages. (#12)TaskBasedCpuContractor::AddReductionTask()
now handles the reduction of non-scalar tensors. (#19)The output of
TensorNetwork::Contract()
andTaskBasedCpuContractor::Contract()
now agree with one another. (#6)PathInfo
now correctly names intermediary tensors in a sliced tensor network (#22).
Documentation¶
The “Using Jet” section of the Sphinx documentation now has Python code snippets. (#43)
The Sphinx documentation now includes API documentation for the
jet
Python package. (#40)The “Using Jet” section of the Sphinx documentation website now compiles with the latest Jet headers. (#26)
The license comment headers at the top of the IR source files have been removed. (#14)
