OBE_JAX is a JAX powered package for Bayesian inference and experimental design using sequential monte carlo methods
This package originated as a fork of OptBayesExpt.
Since the original fork, there have been breaking API changes, Class/Variable/Function name changes, and many other significant deviations from the original software. However, the base ParticlePDF class is very similar to the one implemented in OptBayesExpt.
OBE_JAX requires JAX so please follow the instructions to properly install JAX for your hardware.
To finish the installation just do:
git clone https://github.com/MCS-Quantum/OBE_JAX
cd ./OBE_JAX
pip3 install .WARNINGS:
Documentation is lacking but being added and breaking changes are likely.
The software has not been benchmarked thoroughly, either so use at your own risk.
