[docs]class TomographyBasis(object): """ A basis of Hermitian operators used for representing tomographic objects (states and channels) as vectors of real elements. By assumption, a tomographic basis is taken to have an initial (0th) element proportional to the identity, and all other elements are taken to be traceless. For example, the Pauli matrices form a tomographic basis for qubits. Instances of TomographyBasis convert between representations of tomographic objects as real vectors of model parameters and QuTiP :class:`~qutip.Qobj` instances. The latter is convienent for working with other libraries, and for reasoning about fidelities and other metrics, while model parameter representations are useful for defining prior distributions and tomographic models. :param np.ndarray data: Dense array of shape ``(dim ** 2, dim, dim)`` containing all elements of the new tomographic basis. ``data[alpha, i, j]`` is the ``(i, j)``-th element of the ``alpha``-th matrix of the new basis. :param list dims: Dimensions specification used in converting to QuTiP representations. The product of all elements of ``dims`` must equal the dimension of axes 1 and 2 of ``data``. For instance, ``[2, 3]`` specifies that the basis is over the tensor product of a qubit and a qutrit space. :param labels: LaTeX-formatted labels for each basis element. If a single `str`, a subscript is added to each basis element's label. :type labels: :obj:`str` or :obj:`list` of :obj:`str` :param str superrep: Superoperator representation to pass to QuTiP when reconstructing states.
