Abstract
A hybrid quantum classical (HQC) computer system, which includes both a classical computer component and a quantum computer component, implements indirect benchmarking of a near term quantum device by directly benchmarking a virtual quantum machine that models the quantum computer device and that has a level of errors that corresponds to the level of errors associated with the quantum computer device. The direct benchmarking, conducted using quantum error correction tools, produces a probability distribution of error syndromes that may be used as a probability distribution of error syndromes for the quantum computer device.
