Title




PyTorch INFERNO
Documentation: https://gilesstrong.github.io/pytorch_inferno/
This package provides a PyTorch implementation of INFERNO (de Castro and Dorigo, 2018), along with a minimal high-level wrapper for training and applying PyTorch models, and running statistical inference of parameters of interest in the presence of nuisance parameters. INFERNO is implemented in the form of a callback, allowing it to be dropped in and swapped out with heavy rewriting of code.
For an overview of the package, a breakdown of the INFERNO algorithm, and an introduction to parameter inference in HEP, I have written a 5-post blog series: https://gilesstrong.github.io/website/statistics/hep/inferno/2020/12/04/inferno-1.html

User install
pip install pytorch_inferno

Developer install
[install torch>=1.7 according to CUDA version]
pip install nbdev fastcore numpy pandas fastprogress matplotlib>=3.0.0 seaborn scipy
git clone [email protected]:GilesStrong/pytorch_inferno.git
cd pytorch_inferno
pip install -e .
nbdev_install_git_hooks

Overview
Library developed and testing in nbs directory.
Experiments run in experiments directory.
Use nbdev_build_lib to export code to library located in pytorch_inferno. This overwrites any changes in pytorch_inferno, i.e. only edit the notebooks.
Results
This package has been tested against the paper problem and reproduces its results within uncertainty
