PyCBC documentation
###################
PyCBC is a python toolkit for analysis of data from gravitational-wave laser interferometer detectors with the goal of detecting and studying signals from compact binary coalescences (CBCs).
The goals of the PyCBC project are to:
- Provide tools for building gravitational-wave search workflows for CBCs
- Create a flexible, extensible production code for CBC analysis that can be released for the public
- Enable simple, easy and transparent access for various many-core architectures like GPUs
