Pyriod
Python implementation of basic period detection and fitting routines for astronomical time series.
Give it a spin before you install with an example notebook on Binder. (This can take a while to load!)
To install, use
pip install Pyriod
or download the latest (possibly unstable) version from GitHub and run
python -m pip install .
Additional documentation is available at pyriod.readthedocs.io.
Note on v0.5.0 refactor
Pyriod has undergone a major revision as of v0.5, separating the analysis suite
from Pyriod import Prewhitener
from the GUI
from Pyriod import PyriodGUI.
The Pyriod objects should now also take up considerably less space in memory.
Most GUI-based functionality should be work as expected with the same from Pyriod import Pyriod structure of previous versions.
Documentation is being updated to reflect the current code, and a prewhitening tutorial based on this work is in preparation.
If you encounter any errors in the current version of Pyriod, please report them here under Issues.
