# About

The Statistical Python project was launched with support from a [grant from the NSF](https://nsf.elsevierpure.com/en/projects/pose-phase-1-an-open-source-ecosystem-for-statistical-python), titled "POSE: Phase I: An open-source ecosystem for statistical Python."
We are now completing Phase I, which has centered on scoping activities to inform the transition into a sustainable open-source ecosystem.
During this phase, we conducted interviews with stakeholders across the statistical and scientific Python communities, engaged with related domain-stack OSEs to learn from their experiences, and organized a workshop to gather input on community needs and technical directions.

## Welcome to Statistical Python
# Welcome to Statistical Python

The Statistical Python project is a community-driven and community-owned initiative dedicated to building a robust, sustainable ecosystem for statistical software in Python.
Our mission is to unite statisticians, domain practitioners, educators, and software developers to create high-quality, well-engineered statistical tools that empower research, education, and industry.
By fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing, we aim to lower barriers to contribution, promote best practices in software engineering, and ensure that cutting-edge statistical methods are accessible to the broader Python community.
Our mission is to unite statisticians, practitioners, educators, and developers to create high-quality, well-engineered statistical tools that empower research, education, and industry.
We foster collaboration and knowledge sharing to lower barriers to contribution, promote best practices in software engineering, and ensure that advanced statistical methods are accessible to the broader Python community.

As a domain stack within the larger [Scientific Python project](https://scientific-python.org/), Statistical Python leverages the strengths of the scientific Python ecosystem while addressing the unique needs of the statistical community.
Supported by an NSF POSE Phase I grant, our work focuses on bridging the gap between innovative statistical methodology and modern open-source software development.
Our goal is to catalyze the growth of a vibrant, cross-disciplinary developer and user base, making Python a premier platform for statistical computing and education.
Our vision is to connect statistical innovation with open-source software engineering, drawing on best practices from both the Python and R communities.

# Pilot Projects
-->

As part of our NSF-funded initiative, we are working with two pilot projects that highlight different aspects of the statistical Python ecosystem:

- **[YAGLM](https://github.com/yaglm/yaglm)**: A Python package for generalized linear models, offering modern statistical methodology with various loss functions, regularizers, and solvers.
- **[ISLP](https://github.com/intro-stat-learning/ISLP)**: A companion Python package for the textbook "An Introduction to Statistical Learning with Applications in Python," focused on educational resources and implementations.
