This version implements various speed improvements to brutus. It is now ~ 2x faster. numba is now a required dependency.
This version is also the first version to be available on pip. You can install with
pip install astro-brutus
The following changes have been made
- A homemade multivariate sampler is used now which can handle multiple covariance matrices, much faster than looping over numpy's
- Some of the more compute-intensive portions of the code have been optimized using
numba. - General code reorganization and refactoring. Some user-facing variables have been renamed.
This also removes parallel support.
