Description
Catalyst recently added support for specifying shot-vectors when used with qml.sample
measurements on the lightning.qubit
device (#1051). However, other measurement types, such as expval
and probs
, currently do not support shot-vectors. We should add support for these other measurement processes. Moreover, it should be efficient, meaning that there should only be one circuit execution.
