    r"""Generates a list of implementable sequences from the noise-amplified
    representation of the input ideal circuit based on the input noise model
    and baseline noise level.

    Args:
        ideal_circuit: The ideal circuit from which an implementable
            sequence is sampled.
        scale_factor: A (positive) number by which the baseline noise
            level is to be amplified.
        noise_model: A string describing the noise model to be used for the
            noise-scaled representations, e.g. "local_depolarizing" or
            "global_depolarizing".
        epsilon: Baseline noise level.

    Returns:
        A list of noise-amplified circuits, corresponding to each scale
        factor multiplied by the baseline noise level."""
