improve interoperability for PyCBC in external waveform packages

2

PyCBC has as one of its key goals the idea of providing a simple interface for GW waveform generation which can be used by humans, but also higher level algorithms...

start work on skipping likelihoods known to be low

1

This is an attempt to start speeding up certain likelihood calls where we can quickly determine it cannot return a high likelihood value. (1) determine where the SNR peaks are...

At the moment, as noted in https://github.com/gwastro/pycbc/pull/3868, interworkflow dependies require that files passed have a final stage-out location included in them. This may not be true for intermediate files or...

get_fd_from_td should handle higher mode waveforms more gracefully

4

For higher mode waveforms which start their signals at a consistent *frequency* the get_fd_from_td function does not apply a tapering that is correct. This occurs because there are sharp turn-ons...

See discussion in #3780 Quote `` 'sigmasq' was not be written to the output files correctly! I think this is an old bug (or perhaps just forgotten by me bad...

allow pycbc inspiral to accept multiple gps time ranges (i.e. analyze non-contiguous data)

2

I'm posting this early just so people are aware of something I'm planning to add. The PR is not feature complete and will require patches elsewhere (i.e. in mergetrigs, in...

One reason we hesitate with some of the current checkpointing for PE / inspiral jobs when running O(10^3) or greater is that they often are set up to write to...
