Context:
PR #6019 only fixes
BasisRotation
when using backprop ondefault.qubit
. It is not jit compatible on any other device. This is becauseunitary_matrix
was being considered a hyperparameter, not a piece of data. So we could not detect that the matrix was a tracer and we were in jitting mode, and we could not convert the matrix back into numpy data.Description of the Change:
Make
unitary_matrix
a piece of data instead of a hyperparameter. This allows us to detect when it is being jitted.As a by-product, I also made it valid pytree.
By making
unitary_matrix
a piece of data, we were able to get rid of the custom comparison method inqml.equal
