Hinton Plots

hinton(matrix[, max_weight, ax])	Draw Hinton diagram for visualizing a weight matrix.
hinton_real(matrix, max_weight, xlabels, …)	Draw Hinton diagram for visualizing a real valued weight matrix.

State Plots

plot_pauli_rep_of_state(state_pl_basis, ax, …)	Visualize a quantum state in the Pauli-Liouville basis.
plot_pauli_bar_rep_of_state(state_pl_basis, …)	Visualize a quantum state in the Pauli-Liouville basis.

Process Plots

plot_pauli_transfer_matrix(ptransfermatrix, ax)

Visualize a quantum process using the Pauli-Liouville representation (aka the Pauli Transfer Matrix) of the process.
