Abstract :
We present HyperStar, an extensible tool with a graphical user-interface that enables simple and efficient fitting of phase-type distributions to data sets. The fitting process can be optimised using intuitive graphical selection of important features of the density. An extensible module interface enables application of the tool as a GUI for prototype implementations of new fitting algorithms.
