'Added a new model in inference that can semi-analytically marginalize the phase of the signal in the presence of higher modes'
This is a: new feature that allows for semi-analytic marginalization of phase in the presence of higher modes.
This change affects: inference
This change changes: documentation
Currently, analytic phase marginalization is only available in the presence of a single mode. WIth multiple modes present, phase needs to be sampled over. This model circumvents the problem by calculating the marginalized likelihood as a function of the complex inner products of the data and the signal template.
