qward.metrics.structural_metrics.StructuralMetrics¶

class StructuralMetrics(circuit)[source]¶

Extract structural metrics from QuantumCircuit objects.

This class analyzes the structural organization of a quantum circuit and computes metrics that describe its shape, topology, and logical arrangement. Structural metrics include circuit depth, width, size, density, connectivity, and software-engineering-inspired metrics such as LOC and Halstead adapted to quantum circuit representations.

circuit¶

The quantum circuit to analyze (inherited from MetricCalculator).

Type:: QuantumCircuit

_circuit_dag¶

DAG representation of the circuit, used to compute depth, connectivity, structural relationships, and topological features.

Type:: DAGCircuit | None

Initialize the StructuralMetrics calculator.

Parameters:: circuit (QuantumCircuit) – The quantum circuit to analyze

__init__(circuit)[source]¶

Initialize the StructuralMetrics calculator.

Parameters:: circuit (QuantumCircuit) – The quantum circuit to analyze
