Quantum circuits for weak fourier sampling and strong fourier sampling

Quantum Computing SE Archived Mar 16, 2026 ✓ Full text saved

I am studying the quantum fourier transform and don't quite understand the difference between strong and weak sampling. I am sure that inspecting specific quantum circuits for each sampling technique will help elluminate the differences. Can anyone direct me to the quantum circuit diagrams of each?
