Geomstats is a Python package for computations, statistics, machine learning and deep learning on manifolds.
The package is organized into two main modules: geometry and learning. The module geometry implements differential geometry: manifolds, Lie groups, fiber bundles, shape spaces, information manifolds, Riemannian metrics, and more. The module learning implements statistics and learning algorithms for data on manifolds. Users can choose between backends: NumPy, Autograd or PyTorch.

- and Geomstats software version (citation automatically generated by Zenodo at the bottom right of this link).
We would sincerely appreciate citations to both the original research paper and the software version, to acknowledge authors who started the codebase and made the library possible, together with the crucial work of all contributors who are continuously implementing pivotal new geometries and important learning algorithms, as well as refactoring, testing and documenting the code to democratize geometric statistics and (deep) learning and foster reproducible research in this field.
From a terminal (OS X & Linux), you can install geomstats and its
requirements with pip3 as follows:
pip3 install geomstats
This method installs the latest version of geomstats that is uploaded on PyPi. Note that geomstats is only available with Python3.
From a terminal (OS X & Linux) or an Anaconda prompt (Windows), you can install geomstats and its
requirements with conda as follows:
conda install -c conda-forge geomstats
This method installs the latest version of geomstats that is uploaded on conda-forge. Note that geomstats is only available with Python3.
From a terminal (OS X & Linux), you can install geomstats and its
requirements via git as follows:
git clone https://github.com/geomstats/geomstats.git cd geomstats pip3 install .
This method installs the latest GitHub version of geomstats.
Note that this only installs the minimum requirements. To add the optional,
development, continuous integration and documentation requirements,
refer to the file pyproject.toml.
Developers should git clone the main branch of this repository, together with the development requirements
and the optional requirements to enable autograd and pytorch backends:
pip3 install geomstats[dev,opt]
Additionally, we recommend installing our pre-commit hook, to ensure that your code follows our Python style guidelines:
pre-commit install
Geomstats can run seamlessly with numpy, autograd or
pytorch. Note that autograd and pytorch and requirements are
optional, as geomstats can be used with numpy only. By default, the
numpy backend is used. The visualizations are only available with
this backend.
To get the autograd and pytorch versions compatible with
geomstats, install the optional requirements:
pip3 install geomstats[opt]
To install only the requirements for a given backend do:
pip3 install geomstats[<backend_name>]
You can choose your backend by setting the environment variable
GEOMSTATS_BACKEND to numpy, autograd or pytorch, and
importing the backend module. From the command line:
export GEOMSTATS_BACKEND=<backend_name>
and in the Python3 code:
import geomstats.backend as gs
To use geomstats for learning algorithms on Riemannian manifolds,
you need to follow three steps:
- instantiate the manifold of interest,
- instantiate the learning algorithm of interest,
- run the algorithm.
The data should be represented by a gs.array. This structure
represents numpy arrays, autograd or pytorch tensors, depending on the
choice of backend.
The following code snippet shows the use of tangent Principal Component
Analysis on simulated data on the space of 3D rotations.
from geomstats.geometry.special_orthogonal import SpecialOrthogonal
from geomstats.learning.pca import TangentPCA
so3 = SpecialOrthogonal(n=3, point_type="vector")
data = so3.random_uniform(n_samples=10)
tpca = TangentPCA(space=so3, n_components=2)
tpca = tpca.fit(data)
tangent_projected_data = tpca.transform(data)All geometric computations are performed behind the scenes. The user only needs a high-level understanding of Riemannian geometry. Each algorithm can be used with any of the manifolds and metric implemented in the package.
