surface_sim.models.UniformDepolarizingNoiseModel

class UniformDepolarizingNoiseModel(qubit_inds, setup=None)

The UniformDepolarizing noise model is defined in the following paper:

McEwen, M., Bacon, D., & Gidney, C. (2023). Relaxing hardware requirements for surface code circuits using time-dynamics. Quantum, 7, 1172. https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-11-07-1172

see Table D.1 and Table D.2 for a description of the noise models.

To correctly use the UniformDepolarizing noise model (i.e. with the correct error rate relations), one needs to use the surface_sim.setups.UniformDepolarizing setup.

The only physical operations available in this noise model are: - CX - CXSWAP - any single-qubit Clifford - initialization in the Z and X basis - measurement in the Z and X basis - 2-qubit Pauli measuremnts - idling
