[April 10 2019] Workshop @ GT ML for Seismic

We held our first internal workshop to introduce the Yews package and open for the internal alpha test.

Roadmap

Long-term goal

• Processing seismic waveform data by deep learning
• Peripheral tools to facilitate research in seismic processing

Short-term goal

• Release an alpha test version (0.0.1) in April 2019
• Release beta test version (tentatively v0.0.5) in August 2019
• Release the first stable version (v0.1.0) in December 2019

To-do list

• Prepare release to package managers including pip and conda (0.0.1)
• Setup Travis CI and codecov
• Include unittest via pytest
• Online documentation via sphinx
• Get a list of feature request from EAS scholars
