DeerLab
About
DeerLab is a comprehensive free scientific software package for Python focused on modeling, penalized least-squares regression, and uncertainty quantification. It provides highly specialized on the analysis of dipolar EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) spectroscopy data. Dipolar EPR spectroscopy techniques include DEER (double electron-electron resonance), RIDME (relaxation-induced dipolar modulation enhancement), and others.
The documentation can be found here.
The early versions of DeerLab (up to version 0.9.2) are written in MATLAB. The old MATLAB codebase is archived and can be found here.
A graphical user interface (GUI) for processing DEER data using DeerLab is now available as a separate package called DeerAnalysis.
Requirements
DeerLab is available for Windows, Mac and Linux systems and requires Python 3.9 to 3.13
All additional dependencies are automatically downloaded and installed during the setup.
Setup
A pre-built distribution can be installed from the PyPI repository using pip.
From a terminal (preferably with admin privileges) use the following command to install from PyPI:
python -m pip install deerlab
More details on the installation and updating of DeerLab can be found here.
