multitaperpy

Wraps the Multitaper.jl package so as to work in python

Installation

Please install using

$ pip install -e git+https://github.com/lootie/multitaperpy.git#egg=multitaperpy

Using multitaperpy requires that Julia is installed and in the path, along with Multitaper.jl and PyCall.jl. To install Julia, download a generic binary from the JuliaLang site and add it to your path. To install Julia packages required for multitaperpy, open up Python interpreter then run:

>>> import multitaperpy
>>> multitaperpy.install()

and you're good! Note that one might additionally require

>>> from julia.api import Julia
>>> jl = Julia(compiled_modules=False)

before one accesses basic functionality, i.e.

from multitaperpy import multispec 
import numpy as np

multispec.multispec(np.random.rand(100))

and you may also need PyJulia

$ python3 -m pip install --user julia
