Executables

This gives you access to three executables

$ parallel_bilby_generation --help
$ parallel_bilby_analysis --help
$ parallel_bilby_retrieve_data --help

Roughly speaking, the generation executable is run locally to prepare the data for analysis. It takes as input a gwf file of the strain data, the PSD text files and some configuration options such as which waveform model to use. The output of the data generation step is a data_dump.pickle.

This file is used as the input to the analysis step.
