Benchpress [1] is a Snakemake workflow where structure learning (sometimes called causal discovery) algorithms, implemented in possibly different languages, can be executed and compared. The computations scale seamlessly on multiple cores or "... to server, cluster, grid and cloud environments, without the need to modify the workflow definition" - Snakemake. The documentation is found at https://benchpressdocs.readthedocs.io.
The following main functionalities are provided by Benchpress
- Benchmarks - Benchmark structure learning algorithms.
- Algorithm development - Benchmark your own algorithm along with the existing ones while developing.
- Data analysis - Estimate the underlying graph structure for your own dataset(s).
