Welcome to AutoReduce's documentation!
=====================================

AutoReduce is a Python package for automated model reduction of SBML models. It provides tools for:

* Automated model reduction using QSSA (Quasi-Steady State Approximation)
* Hill function approximation
* Integration with BioCRNPyler for synthetic biology models
* Analysis of gene expression models

Installation
-----------

You can install AutoReduce using pip:

.. code-block:: bash

    pip install autoreduce

For development installation with all optional dependencies:

.. code-block:: bash

    pip install -e ".[all]"

Quick Start
----------

Here's a simple example of using AutoReduce to reduce a model using conservation laws and timescale separation:

.. code-block:: python

    from autoreduce.converters import load_sbml

    # Load your SBML model
    sys = load_sbml('your_sbml_file.xml', outputs=['your_output'])

    # Solve conservation laws
    conservation_laws = sys.solve_conservation_laws(
        conserved_sets=[
            ['species1', 'species2', 'species3'],  # First conserved set
            ['species4', 'species5']               # Second conserved set
        ],
        states_to_eliminate=['species_to_eliminate1', 'species_to_eliminate2']
    )

    # Solve timescale separation using QSSA
    reduced_qssa_model = sys.solve_timescale_separation(['fast_species1', 'fast_species2'])
