Beyond full statevector simulation with Qibo

Abstract

In this proceedings, we present two new quantum circuit simulation protocols recently added as optional backends to Qibo, an open-source framework for quantum simulation, hardware control and calibration. We describe the current status of the framework as for version 0.2.9. In detail, the two new backends for Clifford and tensor networks simulation are presented and benchmarked against the state-of-the-art.
