This is the fourth official release, a bit later than usual.

One major new addition is the kima-run command now included in pykima to compile and run kima jobs.
This replaces the old make; ./run combo, and offers some more functionality.

Other new features:

  • kima-checkpriors now accepts a column name in addition to a column number
  • new interface to build models within Python using pykima.KimaModel
  • implementation of the "known object" mode for Keplerians with individual priors for the orbital parameters
  • the plot with the posterior for orbital periods now also shows the prior
  • dedicated test suite using some of the examples
  • an even bigger list of examples demonstrating most of kima's features
  • header of sample.txt now matches the number of columns
  • new option for up to cubic trends (#60)
  • re-implemented the Student-t likelihood (#61) with automatic outlier "detection"
  • allow for a quasi-periodic celerite kernel, created by Andrew Collier Cameron
  • the obs_after_HARPS_fibers has been discontinued as it was error-prone is replaced with the multi-instrument mode (#65)
  • the kima-gui script is included but still needs further testing
