Problem with conversion of qiskit circuit with reset gate into mitiq

[Julie-Maria-Raju]

I wanted to use the error mitigation using PEC for amplitude damping and I tried writing my own finding optimal representation code and is not working as it shows error in conversion of reset gate.

Given below is the error message:

raise CircuitConversionError(
mitiq.interface.conversions.CircuitConversionError: Circuit could not be converted to an internal Mitiq circuit. This may be because the circuit contains custom gates or Pragmas (pyQuil). If you think this is a bug or that this circuit should be supported, you can open an issue at https://github.com/unitaryfund/mitiq. 

 Provided circuit has type <class 'qiskit.circuit.quantumcircuit.QuantumCircuit'> and is:

   ┌───┐     
q: ┤ H ├─|0>─

Please help.

Hi @Julie-Maria-Raju! Thanks for opening an issue!

This is a known issue with Mitiq (#2042), and currently the only workaround is to define your circuit using Cirq. Apologies for not having a better suggestion here.

Under the hood this is a limitation in how Cirq imports circuits from QASM. I've opened an issue upstream (quantumlib/Cirq#6704) to see if they are interested in making a change.
