transform_pauli_moments_to_bit

forest.benchmarking.utils.transform_pauli_moments_to_bit(mean_p, var_p)

Changes the first of a Pauli operator to the moments of a bit (a Bernoulli process).

E.g. if the original mean is on [-1, +1] the returned mean is on [0, 1].

Parameters:

• mean_p – mean of some Pauli operator
• var_p – variance of a Pauli operator

Returns:

bit mean and variance.
