Pebl is a python library and command line application for learning the structure of a Bayesian network given prior knowledge and observations. Pebl includes the following features:

• Can learn with observational and interventional data
• Handles missing values and hidden variables using exact and heuristic methods
• Provides several learning algorithms; makes creating new ones simple
• Has facilities for transparent parallel execution using several cluster and cloud resources
• Calculates edge marginals and consensus networks
• Presents results in a variety of formats

Pebl has been developed at the Systems Biology Lab at the University of Michigan and in available under a permissive MIT-style license.
