Changelog

Prelude

Qiskit’s qiskit.algorithms module has been superseded by this new standalone library, qiskit_algorithms.

As of Qiskit’s 0.25 release, active development of new algorithm features has moved to this new package.

If you’re relying on qiskit.algorithms you should update your requirements to also include qiskit-algorithms and update the imports from qiskit.algorithms to qiskit_algorithms.

Note

If you have not yet migrated from QuantumInstance-based to primitives-based algorithms, you should first follow the migration guidelines in https://qisk.it/algo_migration, to complete the migration of your code, as this package does not include any deprecated algorithm function.

The decision to migrate the qiskit.algorithms module to a separate package was made to clarify the purpose of Qiskit and make a distinction between the tools and libraries built on top of it.

New Features

The primitive-based algorithms in qiskit_algorithms.eigensolvers and qiskit_algorithms.minimum_eigensolvers are now directly importable from qiskit_algorithms. For example, the primitive-based VQE can now be imported using from qiskit_algorithms import VQE without having to specify from qiskit_algorithms.minimum_eigensolvers import VQE. This short import path used to be reserved for QuantumInstance-based algorithms (now deprecated and removed from the codebase). If you have not yet migrated from QuantumInstance-based to primitives-based algorithms, you should follow the migration guidelines in https://qisk.it/algo_migration.
