Installation

BOSS is a Python3 package built on the Gaussian process framework GPy. It is available as a PyPI package as aalto-boss and can be installed through pip (add the --user flag if no root access is unavailable):

pip install aalto-boss

This is recommended to correctly take care of python package dependencies. A user installation will place the package in $HOME/.local/bin. You can add this to $PATH to call the executable directly.

To install the latest development version, clone the source code from github and install with pip from local file:

git clone https://github.com/cest-group/aalto-boss.git
cd aalto-boss
pip install .
