[ascl:2411.012] BSAVI: Bayesian SAmple VIsualizer for cosmological likelihoods

BSAVI (Bayesian Sample Visualizer) aids likelihood analysis of model parameters where samples from a distribution in the parameter space are used as inputs to calculate a given observable. For example, selecting a range of samples will allow you to easily see how the observables change as you traverse the sample distribution. At the core of BSAVI is the Observable object, which contains the data for a given observable and instructions for plotting it. It is modular, so you can write your own function that takes the parameter values as inputs, and BSAVI will use it to compute observables on the fly. It also accepts tabular data, so if you have pre-computed observables, simply import them alongside the dataset containing the sample distribution to start visualizing. Though BSAVI was developed for use in theoretical cosmology, it can be customized to fit a wide range of visualization needs.
