What is MIMIQ?
MIMIQ is a feature-rich quantum computing framework that allows users to design quantum circuits and execute them on MIMIQ's remote service.
With MIMIQ you can test new quantum algorithms fast and at scale, emulate their implementation on noisy quantum hardware, and grow your understanding of quantum computing by peeking into the properties of the state during emulation. From variational quantum algorithms to quantum error correction, MIMIQ is a universal emulator well-equipped to handle most quantum circuits of interest.
MIMIQ's Advantage
We developed MIMIQ as a tool for quantum computing researchers and application developers. Therefore, it has been built for speed, scale and accuracy, as well as ease of use. We achieve this by providing:
- Efficient implementations of state-of-the-art simulation and compression techniques, which allows to emulate small circuits fast, and large circuits (up to 100s-1000s of qubits) accurately and with fewer resources.
- A cloud interface that gives you greater power for large-scale emulation at your fingertips and allows to parallel execute multiple jobs without disturbing the workflow.
- Simple interface and customizable functionality that facilitates the process of designing and executing quantum circuits.
- Access to a professional set of advanced features for circuit composition (noise, conditional logic, mid-circuit measurements...), full quantum state properties (amplitudes, expectation values, entanglement), and workflow integration.
Simulation Methods
MIMIQ gives access to efficient implementations of state-of-the-art emulation methods. This includes a State Vector simulator for perfectly accurate simulations on small-scale circuits and a Matrix Product State simulator for larger-scale simulations with a controlled and transparent fidelity metric.
