Open QBench
Application Performance Benchmarks for Quantum Computers

The logical quantum circuits for each benchmark were compiled into OpenQASM 2.0 and 3.0, assuming all-to-all connectivity and {Rx, Ry, Rz, CNOT} as the basis gate set. For execution on real quantum backends, these circuits can be freely recompiled and optimized, as long as they remain logically equivalent to the ones delivered within the benchmarking suite.

The following main metrics have been identified based on best practices

  • Execution Time: time spent on quantum simulator or hardware backend running the circuit;
  • Circuit Depth: depth of the circuit after transpiling it to the basis gates set defined as {Rx, Ry, Rz, CNOT}
  • Fidelity: a measure of how accurately the quantum device can reproduce an ideal distribution;
The following application benchmarks are currently implemented:
  • VQE
  • QAOA
  • QSVM
  • QFT
  • Grover
  • Toffoli gate
  • GHZ state
