Probabilistic solvers for differential equations in JAX

ProbDiffEq implements adaptive probabilistic numerical solvers for initial value problems.

It inherits automatic differentiation, vectorisation, and GPU capability from JAX.

Features include:

  • Stable implementation
  • Calibration, step-size adaptation, and checkpointing
  • State-space model factorisations
  • Dense output and posterior sampling
  • Filtering, smoothing, and many other backends
  • Custom information operators
  • Physics-enhanced regression
  • Compatibility with other JAX-based libraries such as Optax or BlackJAX.

and many more.

Installation

Get the most recent stable version from PyPi:

pip install probdiffeq

This installation assumes that JAX is already available.

To install ProbDiffEq with jax[cpu], run

pip install probdiffeq[cpu]

WARNING: This repository is experimental. Functionality may change frequently and without deprecation policies.

What's next?

Start with the quickstart, continue with the Solvers & Solutions examples and only then move to the Parameter estimation examples and the API documentation.

The examples show how to interact with the API, and explain some useful facts about probabilistic numerical solvers. While the API is not stable yet, the examples may be more instructive than the API docs.

The advanced examples show applications of probabilistic numerical solvers, often in conjunction with external libraries. For example, this notebook shows how to combine ProbDiffEq with Optax, and this notebook does the same with BlackJAX.

Contributing

Contributions are absolutely welcome! Start with checking the existing issues for a "good first issue" and have a look at the developer documentation.

If you have a feature that you would like to see implemented, create an issue!

Benchmarks

ProbDiffEq curates a range of benchmarks that includes various library-internal configurations but also other packages like SciPy, JAX, or Diffrax. To run the benchmark locally, install all dependencies via

pip install .[example,test]

and then either open Jupyter and go to docs/benchmarks or execute all benchmarks via

make run-benchmarks

Be patient, it might take a while. Afterwards, open Jupyter to look at the result or build the documentation via

mkdocs serve
