mssm is a toolbox to estimate Generalized Additive Mixed Models (GAMMs) semi Markov-switching GAMMs (sMs-GAMMs) and sMs Impulse Response GAMMs (sMs-IR-GAMMs). The main branch is updated frequently to reflect new developments. The stable branch should reflect the latest releases. If you don't need the newest functionality, you should install from the stable branch (see below for instructions).
The easiest option is to install from pypi via pip.
- Setup a conda environment with python > 3.10
- Install mssm via
pip
The latest release of mssm can be installed from pypi. So to install mssm simply run:
conda create -n mssm_env python=3.10
conda activate mssm_env
pip install mssm
pip install matplotlib # Only needed for tutorials
The fourth line, installing matplotlib is only necessary if you want to run the tutorials. Note: pypi will only reflect releases (Basically, the state of the stable branch). If you urgently need a feature currently only available on the main branch, consider building from source.
You can also build directly from source. This requires conda or an installation of eigen (setup.py then expects eigen in "usr/local/include/eigen3". This will probably not work on windows - the conda strategy should.). Once you have conda installed,
install eigen from conda-forge. After cloning and navigating into the downloaded repository you can then install via:
pip install .
