PyThia v4 release and paper publication

17.11.2023

Originally developed for fast global sensitivity analysis and efficient parameter reconstruction for applications in nano-optical metrology, PyThia provides an all purpose non-intrusive Python package to approximate high dimensional functions.
Based on general polynomial chaos approximation obtained via linear regression, PyThia generates functional surrogates by relying purely on training data pairs of function input and output values.
The software package released a new version (v4), which adheres to state-of-the-art software development criteria, such as automatic testing, an automatically generated online documentation, executable and documented tutorials and automatically generated static snapshots for all versions with citable DOI.
An article presenting PyThia was published in the Journal of Open Source Software to verify the quality standards of the software.
