RB Benchmarker

Purpose

Provides expert guidance on randomized benchmarking protocols for characterizing quantum gate fidelities and hardware performance.

Capabilities

• Standard randomized benchmarking
• Interleaved randomized benchmarking
• Simultaneous RB for crosstalk
• Character benchmarking
• Cycle benchmarking
• Fidelity decay fitting
• SPAM error separation
• Confidence interval estimation

Usage Guidelines

1. Protocol Selection: Choose RB variant based on characterization goals
2. Sequence Generation: Create random Clifford sequences of varying lengths
3. Execution: Run benchmarking experiments with sufficient statistics
4. Fitting: Analyze decay curves to extract fidelity parameters
5. Reporting: Generate comprehensive benchmarking reports
