Deep astronomical images are often constructed by digitially stacking many individual sub-exposures. Each sub-exposure is expected to show small differences in the positions of stars and other objects in the field, due to the movement of…
Phylogenetic trees are the primary framework for conveying evolutionary relationships. While many tools exist for visualizing phylogenetic trees, most are limited to static graphics, require coding expertise, or are developed for a specific…
Existing generative models for 3D shapes can synthesize high-fidelity and visually plausible shapes. For certain classes of shapes that have undergone an engineering design process, the realism of the shape is tightly coupled with the…
In this article we describe a program -- called planar_draw -- to draw maps on oriented surfaces in the plane. The drawings are coded as tikz files that can easily be manipulated and used in latex documents. Next to plane maps -- a case for…
Advancement in recent years in the field of experimental gravitation has allowed to test the equivalence principle in regimes that were previously unexplored, allowing for unprecedented verifications of general relativity and also enabling…
Mathematical modeling is a powerful tool in rheology, and we present pyRheo, an open-source package for Python designed to streamline the analysis of creep, stress relaxation, oscillation, and rotation tests. pyRheo contains a comprehensive…
What is the best representation for doing euclidean geometry on computers? These notes from a SIGGRAPH 2019 short course entitled "Geometric algebra for computer graphics" introduce projective geometric algebra (PGA) as a modern framework…
A wide range of scientific imaging datasets benefit from human inspection for purposes ranging from prosaic-such as fault identification and quality inspection-to profound, enabling the discovery of new phenomena. As such, these datasets…
Magboltz is widely used to compute electron transport properties in gas mixtures for detector applications. Its text-based workflow, however, can be a barrier for routine use, especially for users who are not already familiar with the…
The ability to jointly understand the geometry of objects and plan actions for manipulating them is crucial for intelligent agents. We refer to this ability as geometric planning. Recently, many interactive environments have been proposed…
In this article we introduce PINGSoft, a set of IDL routines designed to visualise and manipulate, in an interactive and friendly way, Integral Field Spectroscopic data. The package is optimised for large databases and a fast visualisation…
This is a companion Focus Demonstration article to the PyMUSE python package, demonstrating its usage and utilities for VLT/MUSE data analysis, that include a wide range of options for spectra extractions, the creation of different types of…
The area of geometry with its very strong and appealing visual contents and its also strong and appealing connection between the visual content and its formal specification, is an area where computational tools can enhance, in a significant…
xBIT is a tool for performing parameter scans in beyond the Standard Model theories. It's written in Python and fully open source. The main purpose of xBIT is to provide an easy to use tool to help phenomenologists with their daily task:…
We present PyMoosh, a Python-based simulation library designed to provide a comprehensive set of numerical tools allowing to compute essentially all optical characteristics of multilayered structures, ranging from reflectance and…
The emergence of data-driven computational materials science offers unprecedented opportunities to explore complex material landscapes, complementing experimental research with the discovery of novel compounds. To enable these developments,…
MatchingTools is a Python library for doing symbolic calculations in effective field theory. It provides the tools to construct general models by defining their field content and their interaction Lagrangian. Once a model is given, the…
Structural parameters are normally extracted from observed galaxies by fitting analytic light profiles to the observations. Obtaining accurate fits to high-resolution images is a computationally expensive task, requiring many model…
Phase plotting is a useful way of visualising functions on complex space. We reinvent the method in the context of hyperbolic geometry, and we use it to plot functions on various representative surfaces for hyperbolic space, illustrating…
SfePy (Simple Finite Elements in Python) is a framework for solving various kinds of problems (mechanics, physics, biology, ...) described by partial differential equations in two or three space dimensions by the finite element method. The…
