qiskit_ibm_runtime.options_models.EstimatorOptions

field

Type: Annotated[float, Field(gt``=``0)]

Default value: 0.015625

The default precision to use for any PUB or run() call that does not specify one.

The default precision for expectation value estimates if not specified in the PUBs or in the run method.

The default value of 0.015625, equivalent to 4096**-0.5, represents the precision expected from 4096 shots in the presence of i.i.d. noise.

Constraints

• gt = 0

field

Type: Annotated[int, Field(ge``=``0)] | None

Default value: None

The total number of shots to use per circuit per configuration.

A configuration is a combination of a specific parameter value binding set and a physical measurement basis. A physical measurement basis groups together some collection of qubit-wise commuting observables for some specific circuit/parameter value set to create a single measurement with basis rotations that is inserted into hardware executions.

If twirling is enabled, the value of this option will be divided over circuit randomizations, with a smaller number of shots per randomization. See the twirling options.

field

Type: DynamicalDecouplingOptions

Default value: DynamicalDecouplingOptions(enable=False, sequence_type='XX', extra_slack_distribution='middle', scheduling_method='alap', skip_reset_qubits=False)

Dynamical decoupling options.

field

Type: EnvironmentOptions

Default value: EnvironmentOptions(log_level='WARNING', job_tags=[], private=False, max_execution_time=None, image=None)

Options related to the execution environment.

field

Type: ExecutionOptions

Default value: ExecutionOptions(init_qubits=True, rep_delay=None, scheduler_timing=False, stretch_values=False)

Execution options.

field

Type: dict

Default value: {}

Experimental options.

field

Type: int | None

Default value: None

Maximum execution time in seconds.

This value bounds system execution time (not wall clock time). System execution time is the amount of time that the system is dedicated to processing your job. If a job exceeds this time limit, it is forcibly cancelled.

field

Type: ResilienceOptions

Default value: ResilienceOptions(measure_mitigation=None, measure_noise_learning=MeasureNoiseLearningOptions(num_randomizations='auto'), pec_mitigation=False, pec=PecOptions(max_overhead=100, noise_gain='auto'), zne_mitigation=None, zne=ZneOptions(amplifier='gate_folding', noise_factors='auto', extrapolator=('exponential', 'linear'), extrapolated_noise_factors='auto'), layer_noise_model=None)

Advanced resilience options to fine-tune the resilience strategy.

field

Type: Literal[0, 1, 2]

Default value: 1

How much resilience to build against errors.

Higher levels generate more accurate results, at the expense of longer processing times. The supported values are:

• 0: No mitigation.
• 1: Minimal mitigation costs. Mitigate error associated with readout errors.
• 2: Medium mitigation costs. Typically reduces bias in estimators but is not guaranteed to be zero bias.

Refer to the Configure error mitigation for IBM Quantum Compute (formerly Qiskit Runtime) guide for more information about the error mitigation methods used at each level.

field

Type: SimulatorOptions

Default value: SimulatorOptions(angle_decimals=5, layer_noise_model=None, seed_simulator=None, warn_absent=True)

Options related to local mode simulations.

field

Type: TwirlingOptions

Default value: TwirlingOptions(enable_gates=None, enable_measure=None, group='pauli', num_randomizations='auto', shots_per_randomization='auto', strategy='active-accum')

Twirling options.
