- In this new era of extragalactic and cosmological surveys, photometric redshift becomes increasingly more important. And in recent years, there have been many exciting new developments for the photo-z algorithms.

EAZY - photometric redshift code
- EAZY is a photometric redshift code designed to produce high-quality redshifts for situations where complete spectroscopic calibration samples are not available. See Brammer, van Dokkum & Coppi 2008 for details.
- eazy-py - Pythonic photometric redshift tools based on EAZY
-
- MAGPHYS+photo-z is a photometric redshift code to constrain the photo-z including the SED from rest-frame UV to far infrared. The far infrared flux is helpful to distinguish the dusty or quiescent galaxy population. See Battisti et al. 2019
- MAGPHYS+photo-z is an extention of the SED fitting code MAGPHYS, which modeling the SED from UV to Radio self-consistently.
- ANNZ - Machine learning methods for astrophysics
- By Iftach Sadeh. ANNZ uses both regression and classification techniques for estimation of single-value photo-z (or any regression problem) solutions and PDFs. Includes several "traditional" machine learning algorithms (ANN, BDT, KNN)
- MLZ - Machine Learning for photo-Z
- MLZ is a python code that computes photometric redshift PDFs using machine learning techniques, providing optional extra information.
- frankenz - A photometric redshift monstrosity
- By Josh Speagle. frankenz is a Pure Python implementation of a variety of methods to quickly yet robustly perform (hierarchical) Bayesian inference using large (but discrete) sets of (possibly noisy) models with (noisy) photometric data.
- Delight - Photometric redshift via Gaussian processes with physical kernels
- By Boris Leistedt. See Leistedt & Hogg 2016 for details.
- the-wizz - A clustering redshift estimation code for us folks
- By Chris Morrison. the-wizz is a clustering redshift estimating tool designed with ease of use for end users in mind.
- For information on the method see Schmidt et al. 2013, Menard et al. 2013, and Rahman et al. 2015, 2016b. Details on this implementation can be found in Morrison et al. 2017
