- Version compatibility and troubleshooting
- Conda and Docker alternatives
-**Structured Model Exports.** In addition to visual reports saved as a multi-page pdf file, the pipeline exports the full model (`*.pckl`) state and a dedicated binary components file (`*_components.pckl`). This allows users to programmatically access the best-fit values and posterior uncertainties (16-84% quantiles) for every individual model component at every data point.
Additional resources:
- Test files in `tests/`
- Inline documentation in source code
## Pipeline Outputs
After a successful run, PyAETNA generates several output files in the output directory:
-**Logfile (`.log`)**: A detailed textual record of the entire process, including configuration, sampling progress, convergence diagnostics, and a tailored list of citations.
-**PDF Report (`.pdf`)**: A comprehensive visual summary of the fit, containing the plots described in the "Features" section.
-**Session Cache (`.pckl`)**: A binary snapshot of the full MCMC state. This file is used for checkpointing and allows you to resume a run from where it left off.
-**Model Components Export (`_components.pckl`)**: A structured binary file containing:
-`coords`: Time coordinates (BJD).
-`map_values`: Best-fit values for each model component.
-`median_values`: Posterior median values.
-`quantiles`: 16% and 84% posterior quantiles.
-`metadata`: Instrument maps and the formulas used to reconstruct the total model.
For a practical example of how to load and use this binary export to reconstruct your model, see the [Load Binary Model Example](docs/load_binary_model.ipynb).
