Developing nonlinear models that are both expressive and computationally efficient remains a challenge in machine learning and nonlinear system identification. Tensor network kernel machines (TNKM) address this challenge by combining nonlinear feature representations with compact low-rank tensor-network parameterizations. However, practical and extensible software frameworks for developing TNKM models remain limited. In this work, we introduce "tnkm", an open-source Python library for constructing and training TNKM models using JAX. The library provides a unified interface for combining different feature maps, tensor-network architectures, and optimization strategies, including alternating least squares and gradient-based methods. We demonstrate the capabilities of "tnkm" on nonlinear benchmark problems, showing that the implemented models achieve competitive prediction accuracy while retaining compact parameterizations and efficient training. The proposed framework facilitates reproducible development and application of tensor-network-based learning methods.
We present scikit-fingerprints, a comprehensive, fully scikit-learn compatible library for molecular machine learning in Python, based on RDKit. Molecular fingerprints and related functionalities are workhorses of chemoinformatics, yet the widely used open-source frameworks are not compatible with the wider Python machine learning ecosystem based on scikit-learn conventions. scikit-fingerprints closes this gap, bringing molecular fingerprints, molecular filters, similarity and distance measures, applicability domain estimation, data splitting strategies, and more under a single, familiar interface. Scikit-learn compatibility means that an entire chemoinformatics workflow, from a raw SMILES string to a deployable model, can be assembled from composable building blocks and can reuse the mature tooling of the surrounding ecosystem. The underlying RDKit code makes it familiar and extensible for custom chemoinformatics use cases. We put a strong focus on unified interfaces, ease of use, computational efficiency, customization, and extensibility. scikit-fingerprints makes molecular machine learning faster to prototype, easier to reproduce, and simpler to deploy.
Over the last decade, neural networks have been applied to an increasingly diverse range of applications, including data with rich geometric, topological, or symmetry-related structure. As a result, researchers have increasingly drawn inspiration from topology, algebra, and geometry. Despite this rich algorithmic development, the supporting software ecosystem remains fragmented. Many important methods exist only as research prototypes in unmaintained repositories. We address this by introducing Topology, Algebra, and Geometry Torch (TAGTorch), an open-source, PyTorch-based library that unifies tools inspired by topology, algebra, and geometry, including data-preprocessing methods, architectures, training techniques, and model analysis tools. We describe the design philosophy of TAGTorch and then discuss its current architecture and capabilities, highlighting areas where it can fill gaps in the current software ecosystem. We conclude with a discussion of our future development priorities for the library.
We describe Causal-TS, an open-source Python library for causal discovery in high-dimensional and nonstationary multivariate time series. Causal-TS provides four specialized algorithms-CDNOTS, CDNOTS+, CEDAR, and GRACE-along with wrappers for GES, Granger, LASSO-VAR, and LGES, all sharing a unified conditional independence (CI) test layer with GPU acceleration via PyTorch. A regime discovery pipeline detects structural breaks via pluggable changepoint detectors and runs discovery per regime with regime-specific parameters. A command-line interface, synthetic data generators, and optional DoWhy integration provide an end-to-end pipeline from raw time series to causal effect estimates. The library is pip-installable, tested on Python 3.10--3.12, and available at https://github.com/bloomberg/causal-ts.
Finance, sensing, and demand streams violate the exchangeability that IID conformal prediction and the IID bootstrap assume, and existing libraries implement either a general resampling engine or conformal calibration without the other. tsbootstrap provides block, residual, sieve, and wild resampling, classical bootstrap confidence intervals, and adaptive conformal calibrators (EnbPI, ACI, NexCP, AgACI) through a single typed API in which a specification object selects each method. In a controlled coverage study the IID bootstrap undercovers sharply under dependence; dependence-aware methods reduce the coverage deficit, the sieve nearest to nominal under short-memory linear dependence. On the shared fixed-statistic path a compiled backend runs several times faster than arch, and a streaming reduce avoids materializing the $O(Bn)$ replicate tensor, limiting peak extra memory to $O(B)$ for the statistic array.
