| contents | PySensors is a Python package for selecting and placing a sparse set of sensors for reconstruction and classification tasks. In this major update to PySensors, we introduce spatially constrained sensor placement capabilities, allowing users to enforce constraints such as maximum or exact sensor counts in specific regions, incorporate predetermined sensor locations, and maintain minimum distances between sensors. We extend functionality to support custom basis inputs, enabling integration of any data-driven or spectral basis. We also propose a thermodynamic approach that goes beyond a single "optimal" sensor configuration and maps the complete landscape of sensor interactions induced by the training data. This comprehensive view facilitates integration with external selection criteria and enables assessment of sensor replacement impacts. The new optimization technique also accounts for over- and under-sampling of sensors, utilizing a regularized least squares approach for robust reconstruction. Additionally, we incorporate noise-induced uncertainty quantification of the estimation error and provide visual uncertainty heat maps to guide deployment decisions. To highlight these additions, we provide a brief description of the mathematical algorithms and theory underlying these new capabilities. We demonstrate the usage of new features with illustrative code examples and include practical advice for implementation across various application domains. Finally, we outline a roadmap of potential extensions to further enhance the package's functionality and applicability to emerging sensing challenges. |
