An Update to the SBML Human-Readable Antimony Language

23 May 2024arXiv:2405.15109archive 2025-07-28

Lucian Smith, Herbert M Sauro

Antimony is a high-level, human-readable text-based language designed for defining and sharing models in the systems biology community. It enables scientists to describe biochemical networks and systems using a simple and intuitive syntax. It allows users to easily create, modify, and distribute reproducible computational models. By allowing the concise representation of complex biological processes, Antimony enhances collaborative efforts, improves reproducibility, and accelerates the iterative development of models in systems biology. This paper provides an update to the Antimony language since it was introduced in 2009. In particular, we highlight new annotation features, support for flux balance analysis, a new rateOf method, support for probability distributions and uncertainty, named stochiometries, and algebraic rules. Antimony is also now distributed as a C/C++ library, together with python and Julia bindings, as well as a JavaScript version for use within a web browser.
