Layout2qDistance

class Layout2qDistance(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: qiskit.transpiler.basepasses.AnalysisPass

Evaluate how good the layout selection was.

Saves in property_set[‘layout_score’] (or the property name in property_name) the sum of distances for each circuit CX. The lower the number, the better the selection. Therefore, 0 is a perfect layout selection. No CX direction is considered.

Layout2qDistance initializer.

Parameters

• coupling_map (CouplingMap) – Directed graph represented a coupling map.

• property_name (str) – The property name to save the score. Default: layout_score

Methods

name	Return the name of the pass.
run	Run the Layout2qDistance pass on dag.

Attributes

is_analysis_pass

Check if the pass is an analysis pass.

If the pass is an AnalysisPass, that means that the pass can analyze the DAG and write the results of that analysis in the property set. Modifications on the DAG are not allowed by this kind of pass.

is_transformation_pass

Check if the pass is a transformation pass.

If the pass is a TransformationPass, that means that the pass can manipulate the DAG, but cannot modify the property set (but it can be read).
