We have our community chat at gitter.

Dependencies

pgmpy has following non optional dependencies:

• Python 3.4 or higher
• NetworkX 2.x
• Scipy
• Numpy
• Pandas

Installation

The preferred way to install pgmpy is through the dev brach:

$ git clone https://github.com/pgmpy/pgmpy 
$ cd pgmpy/
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ python setup.py install

pgmpy can also be installed using conda or pip. Using conda:

$ conda install -c ankurankan pgmpy

Using pip:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt  # or requirements-dev.txt if you want to run unittests
$ pip install pgmpy

If you face any problems during installation let us know, via issues, mail or at our gitter channel.

Development

Code

You can check the latest sources from our github repository use the command:

git clone https://github.com/pgmpy/pgmpy.git

Contributing

Issues can be reported at our issues section.

Before opening a pull request, please have a look at our contributing guide

Contributing guide contains some points that will make our life's easier in reviewing and merging your PR.

If you face any problems in pull request, feel free to ask them on the mailing list or gitter.

If you want to implement any new features, please have a discussion about it on the issue tracker or the mailing list before starting to work on it.

Testing

After installation, you can launch the test form pgmpy source directory (you will need to have the nose package installed):

$ nosetests -v

to see the coverage of existing code use following command

$ nosetests --with-coverage --cover-package=pgmpy

Documentation and usage

Everything is at: http://pgmpy.org/

You can also build the documentation in your local system. We use sphinx to help us building documentation from our code.

$ cd /path/to/pgmpy/docs
$ make html

Then the docs will be in _build/html

Examples:

We have a few example jupyter notebooks here: https://github.com/pgmpy/pgmpy/tree/dev/examples For more detailed jupyter notebooks and basic tutorials on Graphical Models check: https://github.com/pgmpy/pgmpy_notebook/
