MiraPy is a Python package for Deep Learning in Astronomy. It is built using Keras for developing ML models to run on CPU and GPU seamlessly. The aim is to make applying machine learning techniques on astronomical data easy for astronomers, researchers and students.

The documentation is available here <https://mirapy.readthedocs.io>_.

Applications

MiraPy can be used for problem solving using ML techniques and will continue to grow to tackle new problems in Astronomy. Following are some of the experiments that you can perform right now:

Classification of X-Ray Binaries using neural network
Astronomical Image Reconstruction using Autoencoder
Classification of the first catalog of variable stars by ATLAS
HTRU1 Pulsar Dataset Image Classification using Convolutional Neural Network
OGLE Catalogue Variable Star Classification using Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)
2D and 3D visualization of feature sets using Principal Component Analysis (PCA)
Curve Fitting using Autograd (basic implementation)

There are more projects that we will add soon and some of them are as following:

Feature Engineering (Selection, Reduction and Visualization)
Classification of different states of GRS1905+105 X-Ray Binaries using Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)
Feature extraction from Images using Autoencoders and its applications in Astronomy

You can find the applications MiraPy in our tutorial <https://github.com/mirapy-org/tutorials>_ repository.

Installation

Before installing Keras, please install one of its backend engines: TensorFlow, Theano, or CNTK. We recommend the TensorFlow backend. You can find Keras installation guide here <https://keras.io/#installation>_.

You can download the package using pip package installer::

pip install mirapy

You can also build from source code::

git clone --recursive https://github.com/mirapy-org/mirapy.git
cd mirapy
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py install
