GWSurrogate: A Python package for gravitational wave surrogate models

GWSurrogate is an easy to use python interface to gravitational wave surrogate models. Surrogates provide a fast and accurate evaluation mechanism for gravitational waveforms which would traditionally be found through solving differential equations. Those solutions are computed by expensive simulation codes that can take days to months to run. Surrogate models offer a practical way to dramatically accelerate model evaluation while retaining the high-fidelity accuracy of the expensive simulation code. All available models can be found in gwsurrogate.catalog.list().
