Version 0.9.4.1

Same as 0.9.4.1 but fixes PyPi install error regarding "fastcalc.pyx not found".

Version 0.9.4

Significant update with many new features and bug fixes. Upgrading to this version may break some existing code in ways that should be easy to update. Changes from the previous version include:

• switches to HTML reports and plotly plots (vs. PDF reports and matplotlib plots).
• updated Results object stores multiple estimates instead of just one.
• new do_stdpractice_gst driver facilitates multiple GST estimates.
• support for multiple state preparations and POVMs.
• improved multi-qubit support (richer gate set models possible).
• adds tutorial, example, and FAQ notebooks.
• many more pre-loaded "standard" gate sets.

Version 0.9.3

A minor update to the previous version. Major updates include:

• adds Robust Phase Estimation (RPE) capability
• adds initial support for qutrit reports
• usability enhancements:
  • comments in data set text files can now be carried through to reports
  • metadata tables have been added at the end of 'full' and 'general' reports
  • adds tutorials for parallel processing (MPI), gate string reduction, and RPE

Version 0.9.2

A significant update to PyGSTi. Major updates are:

• optimizes and enhances MPI performance.
• adds Randomized Benchmarking support.
• improves "general" report to include more analysis.
• updates gauge optimization to be more flexible.
• updates the "standard" 2-qubit germs and fiducials.

Version 0.9.1.1

Applies hot fix for germ selection algorithm and minor updates:

• performance optimization of reports
• adds timing info and other tweaks to stdout messages
• more robust fake data generation

Version 0.9.1

Another significant update to PyGSTi. Major enhancements include:

• converted to Python3 (but backward compatible with Python2.7)
• improvements to germ and fiducial selection algorithms
• new "fiducial pair reduction" protocol reduces the number of gate sequences required by GST.
• expanded options for gauge optimization
• improved code stability & maintenance
• unified stdout printing & progress indicators
• minor bug fixes & performance enhancements

Version 0.9.1 Beta

A significant update to PyGSTi. Major enhancements are:

• support for 2-qubit gate set tomography (2Q-GST).
• cleaner interfaces to objects (GateSet, DataSet, etc.).
• initial support for parameterized gates & SPAM operations.
• initial support for MPI.

Version 0.9.1 Alpha

Minor updates to version 0.9.0; created to test zenodo DOI creation and integration for this project.
