Cirq - 使用 Python 進行量子運算

Cirq 是 Google Quantum AI 的開源框架,用於設計、模擬及在量子電腦和模擬器上執行量子電路。

何時使用此技能

請在以下情況下使用此技能:

  • 使用 Python 建構、模擬或優化 NISQ 電路
  • 在 Google Quantum AI 處理器(透過 cirq-google)或合作後端(IonQ、Azure Quantum、AQT、Pasqal)上執行任務
  • 建模雜訊、編譯為硬體閘集合,或設計特性化實驗
  • 使用參數掃描、轉換器或 ReCirq 實驗模式

若使用 IBM 硬體,請用 qiskit;若使用自微分的量子機器學習,請用 pennylane;若進行物理模擬,請用 qutip。

安裝

需要 Python 3.11 以上版本。目前穩定版本:1.6.1(2025 年 8 月)。各廠商套件版本號相同。

uv pip install "cirq==1.6.1"

若需要硬體整合(為了可重現性請固定版本):

# Google Quantum Engine(需要經核准的 GCP 專案存取權)
uv pip install "cirq-google==1.6.1"

# IonQ
uv pip install "cirq-ionq==1.6.1"

# AQT(Alpine Quantum Technologies)
uv pip install "cirq-aqt==1.6.1"

# Pasqal
uv pip install "cirq-pasqal==1.6.1"

# Azure Quantum(IonQ、Honeywell/Quantinuum 後端)
uv pip install "azure-quantum[cirq]"

若想使用最新開發中功能,可省略版本固定;但對於生產或硬體執行,請將所有套件固定為相同的 Cirq 版本。

快速入門

基本電路

import cirq
import numpy as np

# 建立量子位元
q0, q1 = cirq.LineQubit.range(2)

# 建構電路
circuit = cirq.Circuit(
    cirq.H(q0),              # 對 q0 執行 Hadamard
    cirq.CNOT(q0, q1),       # CNOT,q0 為控制位元,q1 為目標位元
    cirq.measure(q0, q1, key='result')
)

results = simulator.run_sweep(circuit, params=sweep, repetitions=1000)

# 處理結果
for params, result in zip(sweep, results):
    theta_val = params['theta']
    counts = result.histogram(key='m')
    print(f"θ={theta_val:.2f}: {counts}")

biopython

Comprehensive molecular biology toolkit. Use for sequence manipulation, file parsing (FASTA/GenBank/PDB), phylogenetics, and programmatic NCBI/PubMed access (Bio.Entrez). Best for batch processing, custom bioinformatics pipelines, BLAST automation. For quick lookups use gget; for multi-service integration use bioservices.

bioservices

Unified Python interface to 40+ bioinformatics services. Use when querying multiple databases (UniProt, KEGG, ChEMBL, Reactome) in a single workflow with consistent API. Best for cross-database analysis, ID mapping across services. For quick single-database lookups use gget; for sequence/file manipulation use biopython.

bulk-rnaseq

End-to-end bulk RNA-seq orchestrator — takes raw FASTQ reads through QC and trimming (FastQC, fastp/Trim Galore), alignment and quantification (STAR, Salmon, featureCounts), assembles a gene-level counts matrix, then hands off to differential expression (pydeseq2), pathway/GSEA enrichment (pathway-enrichment), and publication figures (scientific-visualization). Use whenever the user has bulk RNA-seq reads or quant output and wants a complete, reproducible differential-expression workflow — e.g.

cellxgene-census

Query the CZ CELLxGENE Census programmatically for versioned public single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data. Use when you need population-scale cell metadata, gene expression slices, Census summary counts, source H5AD URIs/downloads, embeddings, spatial Census data, or reference atlas comparisons across organisms, tissues, diseases, assays, and cell types. For analyzing your own local single-cell data use scanpy, anndata, or scvi-tools.

citation-management

Comprehensive citation management for academic research. Search OpenAlex, PubMed, and Google Scholar for papers, extract accurate metadata, validate citations, and generate properly formatted BibTeX entries. This skill should be used when you need to find papers, verify citation information, convert DOIs to BibTeX, or ensure reference accuracy in scientific writing.

clinical-decision-support

Prepare and validate research-only clinical decision-support evaluation, evidence-profile, cohort, survival, biomarker/model, privacy, and governance artifacts. Use for aggregate or synthetic research documentation and traceability—not patient care or live clinical operation.

clinical-reports

Create safety-bounded draft structures and run local deterministic checks for clinical case, diagnostic, trial, safety, and aggregate research reports. Use only with synthetic, de-identified, or aggregate inputs and verified source-fact manifests; every output requires qualified review.

cobrapy
