Visualization tool

graphix.visualization module

This module provides functions to visualize the resource state of MBQC pattern. If flow or gflow exist, the tool take them into account and show the information flow as directed edges.

visualize(show_pauli_measurement: bool = True, show_local_clifford: bool = False, show_measurement_planes: bool = False, show_loop: bool = True, node_distance: tuple[float, float] = (1, 1), figsize: tuple[int, int] | None = None, filename: Path | None = None) → None[source]

Visualize the graph with flow or gflow structure.

If there exists a flow structure, then the graph is visualized with the flow structure. If flow structure is not found and there exists a gflow structure, then the graph is visualized with the gflow structure. If neither flow nor gflow structure is found, then the graph is visualized without any structure.

Parameters:

  • show_pauli_measurement (bool) – If True, the nodes with Pauli measurement angles are colored light blue.

  • show_local_clifford (bool) – If True, indexes of the local Clifford operator are displayed adjacent to the nodes.

  • show_measurement_planes (bool) – If True, the measurement planes are displayed adjacent to the nodes.

  • show_loop (bool) – whether or not to show loops for graphs with gflow. defaulted to True.

  • node_distance (tuple) – Distance multiplication factor between nodes for x and y directions.

  • figsize (tuple) – Figure size of the plot.

  • filename (Path | None) – If not None, filename of the png file to save the plot. If None, the plot is not saved. Default in None.

Visualize the graph with flow or gflow structure found from the given pattern.

If pattern sequence is consistent with flow structure, then the graph is visualized with the flow structure. If it is not consistent with flow structure and consistent with gflow structure, then the graph is visualized with the gflow structure. If neither flow nor gflow structure is found, then the graph is visualized with all correction flows.

Parameters:

  • pattern (Pattern) – pattern to be visualized

  • show_pauli_measurement (bool) – If True, the nodes with Pauli measurement angles are colored light blue.

  • show_local_clifford (bool) – If True, indexes of the local Clifford operator are displayed adjacent to the nodes.

  • show_loop (bool) – whether or not to show loops for graphs with gflow. defaulted to True.

  • node_distance (tuple) – Distance multiplication factor between nodes for x and y directions.

  • figsize (tuple) – Figure size of the plot.

  • filename (Path | None) – If not None, filename of the png file to save the plot. If None, the plot is not saved. Default in None.

Visualizes the graph.

Nodes are colored based on their role (input, output, or other) and edges are depicted as arrows or dashed lines depending on whether they are in the flow mapping. Vertical dashed lines separate different layers of the graph. This function does not return anything but plots the graph using matplotlib’s pyplot.

Parameters:

  • pos (Mapping[int, _Point]) – Node positions.

  • place_paths (Callable[) – [Mapping[int, _Point]], tuple[Mapping[_Edge, Sequence[_Point]], Mapping[_Edge, Sequence[_Point]] | None]

  • ] – Given scaled node positions, return the mapping of edge paths and the mapping of arrow paths.

  • l_k (Mapping[int, int] | None) – Layer mapping if any.

  • corrections (tuple[Mapping[int, AbstractSet[int]], Mapping[int, AbstractSet[int]]] | None) – X and Z corrections if any.

  • show_pauli_measurement (bool) – If True, the nodes with Pauli measurement angles are colored light blue.

  • show_local_clifford (bool) – If True, indexes of the local Clifford operator are displayed adjacent to the nodes.

  • show_measurement_planes (bool) – If True, the measurement planes are displayed adjacent to the nodes.

  • show_loop (bool) – whether or not to show loops for graphs with gflow. defaulted to True.

  • node_distance (tuple) – Distance multiplication factor between nodes for x and y directions.

  • figsize (tuple) – Figure size of the plot.

  • filename (Path | None) – If not None, filename of the png file to save the plot. If None, the plot is not saved. Default in None.
