They currently are mostly using Hardware Efficient Ansatze. // TODO: needs facts These Ansatze are optimized for relatively small connectivity, and don't keep errors into account that much. I want to figure out if this can be done better, by using a descriptor format of the hardware including connections between qubits etc. is it possible to make ansatze that are better in - fewer parameters - less error prone - speed of optimisation That is what I will go and try figuring out I think
