EzTaoX

EzTaoX is a flexible framework for multi-wavelength and multi-survey AGN light-curve modeling using Gaussian Processes (GPs). Built on top of tinygp---a scalable GP library in JAX---EzTaoX is fast, modular, and integrates seamlessly with the JAX ecosystem for statistical inference and modern machine learning.

EzTaoX is under active development, breaking API changes are expected.
