Feature overview

Feature overview of pyPESTO. Figure taken from the Bioinformatics publication.

pyPESTO features include:

  • Parameter estimation interfacing multiple optimization algorithms including multi-start local and global optimization. (example, overview of optimizers)
  • Interface to multiple simulators including
    • AMICI for efficient simulation and sensitivity analysis of ordinary differential equation (ODE) models. (example)
    • RoadRunner for simulation of SBML models. (example)
    • Jax and Julia for automatic differentiation.
  • Uncertainty quantification using various methods:
    • Profile likelihoods.
    • Sampling using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), parallel tempering, and interfacing other samplers including emcee, pymc and dynesty. (example)
    • Variational inference
  • Complete parameter estimation pipeline for systems biology problems specified in SBML and PEtab. (example)
  • Parameter estimation pipelines for different modes of data:
  • Model selection. (example)
  • Various visualization methods to analyze parameter estimation results.
