RandomMeas.jl: A Julia Package for Randomized Measurements in Quantum Devices

Abstract

We introduce $\texttt{RandomMeas$.$jl}$, a modular and high-performance open-source software package written in Julia for implementing and analyzing randomized measurement protocols in quantum computing. Randomized measurements provide a powerful framework for extracting properties of quantum states and processes such as expectation values, entanglement, and fidelities using simple experimental procedures combined with classical post-processing, most prominently via the classical shadow formalism. $\texttt{RandomMeas$.$jl}$ covers the full randomized measurement workflow, from the generation of measurement settings for use on a quantum computer, the optional classical simulation of randomized measurements with tensor networks, to a suite of estimators for physical properties based on classical shadows. The package includes advanced features such as robust and shallow shadow techniques, batch estimators, and built-in statistical uncertainty estimation. Its unified, composable design enables the scalable application and further development of randomized measurements protocols across theoretical and experimental contexts.
