ParamComparison 0.2.1

Parameter Comparison Table Generator

ParamComparison is a Python package which can generate a series of tables to display results of different parameter combinations. It is useful when trying different parameters to see how good the results are.

Install

To install, run:

python setup.py install

Or use pip:

pip install ParamComparison

Basic Usage

The basic usage is simple:

import paramcomparison
from paramcomparison.writers import RstWriter
from paramcomparison.readers import UserFunctionReader

# f can be any custom function. It can be a function which reads a data file, or computes on the
# fly.
def f(params, data):
    return params['a'] + params['b'] + params['c'] + params['d']

param_space = {'a': [1,2], 'b': [3,4], 'c':[5,6], 'd': [7,8]}

pc = paramcomparison.ParamComparison(param_space, UserFunctionReader(f, None))
pc.generate_pages('output', RstWriter(), 'a', 'b')

The directory output will contain some rst files which contains generated tables. You can use Sphinx, Nikola or other tools to further convert them into HTML, PDF and other formats.

There are more examples available in the doc/examples folder.
