Approximate simulation using matrix product-based methods

The QLM comes with QPUs based on tensor networks, namely matrix product states (MPS) for noiseless circuit simulations and matrix product operators (MPO) for noisy circuit simulations. We provide with the qat.mps module two QPUs: MPS and MPO. We also provide tools for handling MPS and MPO outside of the usual QPU framework.
