[Gate-users] Variance Reduction in Gate

[Phani MANCHIRAJU]

Hi,

You could use different random number seeds for the simulations, this should
help in variance reduction. From what I know, there is no other way in which
variance reduction could be achieved. No idea about how importance sampling
could be done in Gate.
