M_-M_K- converts absolute 2MASS Ks-band magnitude (or a distance and a Ks-band magnitude) into an estimate of the stellar mass using the empirical relation derived from the resolved photometry and orbits of astrometric binaries. The code requires scalar values for K, distance, and corresponding uncertainties. M_-M_K- outputs errors based on the relationship's scatter and errors in the provided distance and Ks magnitude.

stella creates and trains a neural network to identify stellar flares. Within stella, users can simulate flares as a training set, run a neural network, and feed in their own data to the neural network model. The software returns a probability at each data point as to whether that data point is part of a flare; the code can also characterize the flares identified.
