PyMC

PyMC5 is an open-source probabilistic programming library in Python, designed for Bayesian statistical modeling and inference. Built on top of PyTensor, PyMC5 allows users to construct complex models using intuitive syntax and powerful backends for scalable and efficient computation. PyMC5 is ideal for research, machine learning, and data science applications that require uncertainty quantification and complex hierarchical modeling.

Features of PyMC5:

• Intuitive model specification using standard Python syntax.
• Support for advanced inference methods like NUTS (No-U-Turn Sampler), HMC, and variational inference.
• Flexible modeling of complex hierarchical Bayesian models.
• Integration with popular scientific Python libraries such as NumPy, pandas, and ArviZ.
• Supports GPU acceleration and symbolic differentiation via PyTensor.
• Actively developed with a vibrant open-source community and extensive documentation.
• Open-source and licensed under the Apache License 2.0.
• Ideal for use in research, epidemiology, social science, finance, and engineering domains.

PyMC Usage:

$ sudo su
$ cd /opt/pymc
$ source venv/bin/activate
