## Tick

 Tick is an open source (BSD3 Licence) statistical learning library for Python 3, with C++11 internals, that has a particular focus on time-oriented data. It features, among many other things, a comprehensive set of tools for simulation and fitting of Poisson and Hawkes proceses, and a modular optimization toolbox, allowing to combine models, penalizations and solvers. Several tools for generalized linear models are proposed as well, supporting dense and sparse datasets, and a large set of penalization techniques.
