| contents | Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain problems faster than classical computers by exploiting quantum mechanical effects such as superposition. However, building high-quality quantum software is challenging due to the fundamental differences between quantum and traditional programming and the lack of abstraction mechanisms. To mitigate this challenge, researchers have introduced quantum patterns to capture common high-level design solutions to recurring problems in quantum software engineering. In order to utilize patterns as an abstraction level for implementation, a mapping between the theoretical patterns and the source code is required, which has only been addressed to a limited extent. To close this gap, we propose a framework for the automatic detection of quantum patterns using state- and circuit-based code analysis. Furthermore, we contribute a dataset for benchmarking quantum pattern detection approaches. In an empirical evaluation, we show that our framework is able to detect quantum patterns very accurately and that it outperforms existing quantum pattern detection approaches in terms of detection accuracy. |
