## Overview

**pyGSK** is a modular, open-source Python toolkit for computing and visualizing the **Generalized Spectral Kurtosis (SK)** estimator — a statistical tool for signal detection, RFI excision, and spectral diagnostics.  
It provides both programmatic and command-line interfaces for reproducible, open-science workflows.

Developed within the **[SUNCAST](https://github.com/suncast-org)** collaboration, pyGSK modernizes the legacy IDL implementation of the SK estimator into a fully transparent and community-maintained Python package.

---

## Key Features

- ⚙️ Compute SK statistics for arbitrary integration parameters (`M`, `N`, `d`)
- 🧮 Derive **PFA-based detection thresholds** and visualize their evolution
- 📊 Plot SK distributions and detection boundaries
- 💻 Command-line interface (`pygsk`) with subcommands:
  - `sk-test` — compute and visualize SK thresholds
  - `threshold-sweep` — sweep thresholds over PFA ranges
  - `renorm-sk-test` — use the renormalized SK estimator
- 🔬 Pedagogical and reproducible: designed as a SUNCAST reference implementation

## Installation

Install the latest stable version from PyPI:

```bash
pip install pygsk
```

To verify the installation:

```bash
python -m pygsk --version
```

For the latest development version:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/suncast-org/pygsk.git
```

---

## Quick Example

```python
from pygsk.thresholds import compute_sk_thresholds

M, N, d, pfa = 128, 64, 1.0, 1e-3
lower, upper = compute_sk_thresholds(M, N, d, pfa=pfa)

print(f"SK thresholds for pfa={pfa}: lower={lower:.3f}, upper={upper:.3f}")
```

Or equivalently from the command line:

```bash
pygsk sk-test --M 128 --N 64 --pfa 1e-3 --plot
```
