Welcome to the epifx documentation. This package uses a bootstrap particle filter to generate influenza epidemic forecasts from mechanistic infection models.

Installation

You can install epifx using pip:

# Install pypfilt (with plotting support) and epifx.
pip install pypfilt[plot] epifx

See the pypfilt documentation for further details.
