controlSBML 1.2.1

Control analysis of SBML models

controlSBML

controlSBML is a python packag that assists with control engineering of biological systems that are characterized by models in the Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML), a community standard for representing models of biological models, especially chemical reaction networks. controlSBML provides the following:

• Read SBML models, viewing candidate inputs, and outputs, and running simulations.
• System identification, including the creation of (SISO) transfer function objects from the python control systems library
• Creating Antimony simulations of closed loop systems
• Design of closed loop systems

Examples of usage are in this directory

Installation

pip install controlSBML

To find the current version:

import controlSBML as ctl
ctl.__version__

Version History

• 1.2.1 5/23/2024
  • Eliminated the save_path feature since it conflicted with usage in colab.
• 1.2.0 5/22/2024
  • Implemented differential control
  • Extended noise model to include lognormal distribution, offset, and slope
  • Implemented several examples, some of which are based on student projects
  • Two algorithms for fitting. gpz fits the transfer function in order by gain (g), poles (p), zeroes (z). poly fits a polynomial in s to the simulations.

  • Creation of a consistent API.
• 1.0.11 3/1/2023
  • Ensure that state variables are never negative.
• 1.0.10

  • ControlSBML.makeSISOTransferFunctionBuilder creates a SISOTransferFunctionBuilder object.
