qiskit.aqua.operators.gradients.HessianBase.parameter_expression_grad

static HessianBase.parameter_expression_grad(param_expr, param)

Get the derivative of a parameter expression w.r.t. the given parameter.

Parameters

• param_expr (ParameterExpression) – The Parameter Expression for which we compute the derivative

• param (ParameterExpression) – Parameter w.r.t. which we want to take the derivative

Return type

Union[ParameterExpression, float]

Returns

ParameterExpression representing the gradient of param_expr w.r.t. param
