inviz 0.0.4

An interactive visualizer to help explore the results of running MCMC posterior sampling on a cosmological model.

inviz

This tool helps you explore the results of running MCMC posterior sampling on your cosmological model. Selecting a point on the sample distribution will automatically run CLASS on that sample and display the output.

Installation

Installation is straightforward with pip:

pip install inviz

Or, if you want to test the latest changes, you can clone the repository with

git clone https://github.com/wen-jams/inviz

Dependencies

Currently, only Python versions $\geq$ 3.7 and $<$ 3.11 are supported. You will need to manually install matplotlib and bokeh if installing from pip (this will be fixed very soon). You will also need the Cosmology Boltzmann code CLASS (either the default or your own modified version). Follow the instructions here to install classy, the Python wrapper for CLASS.

Test Installation

To verify that inviz and all the dependencies have been installed correctly, open a Jupyter Notebook and run:

from inviz import *
hv.extension('bokeh')

If no errors appear, we're ready to start visualizing!

For now, a lot of features are hard-coded to use the testing dataset located in the data/test_IDM_n_0 folder. These were created using a custom version of CLASS, which we aren't yet ready to release to the public. However, this is theoretically what the code would look like if you want to make your own visualization of the matter power spectrum residuals:

param_names = load_params('dev/inviz/data/test_IDM_n_0/2022-05-04_75000_.paramnames')
df = pd.DataFrame(columns=param_names)
for i in trange(1,56):
    temp = load_data('dev/inviz/data/test_IDM_n_0/2022-05-04_75000__{}.txt'.format(i), column_names=param_names)
    df = pd.concat([df,temp]).reset_index(drop=True)
df_slice = df[::500]
new_df = df_slice.reset_index(drop=True)
ds = hv.Dataset(new_df, ['omega_b', '100theta_s'])
plot_points(ds, new_df)

And the (very WIP) result:
