Monad-Bayes
A library for probabilistic programming in Haskell.
See the docs for a user guide, notebook-style tutorials, an example gallery, and a detailed account of the implementation.
Created by Adam Scibior (@adscib), documentation, website and newer features by Reuben, maintained by Tweag.
Project status
Now that monad-bayes
has been released on Hackage, and the documentation and the API has been updated, we will focus on adding new features. See the Github issues to get a sense of what is being prepared, and please feel free to make requests.
Background
The basis for the code in this repository is the ICFP 2018 paper [2]. For the
code associated with the Haskell2015 paper [1], see the haskell2015
tag.

Hacking
-
Install
stack
by following these instructions. -
Clone the repository using one of these URLs:
git clone git@github.com:tweag/monad-bayes.git git clone https://github.com/tweag/monad-bayes.git
Now you can use stack build
, stack test
and stack ghci
.
To view the notebooks, go to the website. To use the notebooks interactively:
- Compile the source:
stack build
- If you do not have
nix
install it. - Run
nix develop --system x86_64-darwin --extra-experimental-features nix-command --extra-experimental-features flakes
- this should open a nix shell. For Linux usex86_64-linux
for--system
option instead. - Run
jupyter-lab
from the nix shell to load the notebooks.
Your mileage may vary.
