BirDePy: Birth-and-death processes in Python

BirDePy is a Python package for working with continuous time birth-and-death processes. It includes functions which can be used to approximate transition probabilities (birdepy.probability()), estimate parameter values from data (birdepy.estimate()), simulate sample paths (birdepy.simulate.discrete() and birdepy.simulate.continuous()) and generate forecasts (birdepy.forecast()). The main focus of the package is the estimation of parameter values from discretely-observed sample paths, however the much more straightforward case of estimation of parameter values from continuously observed sample paths is also included.
