It supports Python 3.5 or higher versions and requires several packages including:
`NumPy`_, `SciPy`_, `Pandas`_, `PyStan`_, `Matplotlib`_, and `ArviZ`_.

.. WARNING:: The current Python implementation depends on `PyStan`_ 2,
which is not the latest version (PyStan 3.*).
In the matter of fact, the latest version of PyStan has different interfaces
from those in PyStan 2, and it does not support Windows for now.
In these points, we developers are concerned that it can affect the availability of hBayesDM
for Windows users, so instead of updating hBayesDM to use PyStan 3, we plan to use
`cmdstanpy`_ for our backend in a near future.
Until then, we strongly recommend you to use the R version instead, but
you can still use the current Python implementation with PyStan 2.19.1.1.
Apologies for the inconvenience, and please stay tuned for the future update.
