Mapping is one of the essential steps by which fermionic systems can be solved by quantum computers. In this letter, we give a unified framework of transformations mapping fermionic systems to qubit systems. Many existed transformations, such as Jordan-Wigner, Bravyi-Kitaev and Parity transformations, are the special cases of this framework. Furthermore, based on our framework, one can design transformations flexibly according to the structure of Hamiltonian and quantum devices. Particularly, we propose a transformation, Multilayer Segmented Parity (MSP) transformation, in which the number of layers and the length of segments are adjustable. Applying these mappings on the electronic structure Hamiltonian of various molecules, MSP transformation performs better on the number of Pauli operators and gates needed in the circuit to implement the evolution operator of Hamiltonian.
