HSSM — Hierarchical Sequential Sampling Modeling
HSSM is a Python toolbox for hierarchical Bayesian modeling of choice and response-time data with sequential sampling models. It supports trial-wise and hierarchical regression, reinforcement-learning models, posterior diagnostics, model comparison, and custom likelihoods through a high-level PyMC and Bambi interface. HSSM is a BRAINSTORM project at Brown University.
Install
Use Python 3.12, 3.13, or 3.14 in a fresh environment:
