This package is no longer maintained, please consider using the new version for python3 PyCS3 .
PyCS is a software toolbox to estimate time delays between multiple images of strongly lensed quasars, from resolved light curves such as obtained by the COSMOGRAIL monitoring program. It comes in the form of a python package, and heavily depends on numpy , scipy , and matplotlib for its core functionality. The repository is on GitHub .
To measure time delays with pycs , you’ll typically write a script calling some high-level functions provided by the package. PyCS allows you to compare different point estimators (including your own), without much code integration.
