Description

Piquasso is a full-stack open-source software platform for simulating and programming photonic quantum computers. It can be employed via a high-level Python programming interface, enabling users to simulate photonic quantum computing efficiently. Piquasso targets numerous applications, ranging from boson sampling to photonic quantum machine learning. The former is underpinned by the built-in support for ubiquitous machine learning frameworks such as TensorFlow and JAX. Moreover, XLA compilation is also supported, granting a significant speedup.
