irb_decay_to_gate_error

forest.benchmarking.randomized_benchmarking.irb_decay_to_gate_error(irb_decay, rb_decay, dim)

Eq. 4 of [IRB], which provides an estimate of the error of the interleaved gate, given both the observed interleaved and standard decay parameters.

Parameters:

• irb_decay – Observed decay parameter in irb experiment with desired gate interleaved between Cliffords
• rb_decay – Observed decay parameter in standard rb experiment.
• dim – Dimension of the Hilbert space, 2**num_qubits

Returns:

Estimated gate error of the interleaved gate.
