Sapsan

Sapsan is a pipeline for Machine Learning (ML) based turbulence modeling. While turbulence is important in a wide range of mediums, the pipeline primarily focuses on astrophysical applications. With Sapsan, one can create their own custom models or use either conventional or physics-informed ML approaches for turbulence modeling included with the pipeline (estimators). Sapsan is designed to take out all the hard work from data preparation and analysis, leaving you focused on ML model design, layer by layer.

Feel free to check out a website version at sapsan.app. The interface is identical to the GUI of the local version of Sapsan, except lacking the ability to edit the model code on the fly.

Documentation

Please refer to Sapsan's Wiki for detailed installation, tutorials, troubleshooting, and API, as well as to learn more about the framework's capabilities.

Quick Start

1. Install PyTorch (prerequisite)

Sapsan can be run on both CPU and GPU. Please follow the instructions on PyTorch to install the latest version (torch>=1.7.1 & CUDA>=11.0).

2. Install via pip (recommended)

pip install sapsan

OR Clone from git

git clone https://github.com/pikarpov-LANL/Sapsan.git
cd Sapsan/
python setup.py install

Note: see Installation Page on the Wiki for complete instructions with Graphviz and Docker installation.

3. Test Installation

To make sure everything is alright, run a test of your setup:

sapsan test

4. Run Examples

To get started and familiarize yourself with the interface, feel free to run the included examples (CNN, PIMLTurb, PICAE or on 3D data, and KRR on 2D data). To copy the examples, type:

sapsan get_examples

This will create a folder ./sapsan_examples with appropriate example jupyter notebooks.

5. Create Custom Projects!

To start a custom project, designing your own custom estimator, i.e., network, go ahead and run:

sapsan create {name}

where {name} should be replaced with your custom project name. As a result, a pre-filled template for the estimator, a jupyter notebook to run everything from, and Docker will be initialized.
