Do you want to help change the face of basic science? Physion Consulting is hiring full time developers in the Boston, MA area to work on our upcoming scientific data management system. Demonstrable ability in software engineering, an interest in basic science and an appetite for learning are the only requirements. A CS degree or [...]
New data management plan requirements from the NSF.
Tagged nsfNow that scipy.spatial has a very competent KDTree implementation (in both python an C versions), Rob and I feel that it’s probably best to stop development of the ANN wrapper. It’s in a workable state and the code won’t be going anywhere, but any of our future efforts will go towards scipy.spatial. Give it a [...]
Tagged scikits, scipyA colleague has been fighting with Matlab’s new object-oriented language features and Matlab’s hybrid pass-by-value and pass-by-reference semantics. His findings are quite interesting.
The proceedings of the 2008 SciPy conference are now online. The articles provide a snapshot of some of the great work being done using SciPy as well as valuable references for SciPy users. Gaël Varoquaux has done a great job getting the whole collection in shape. Thanks Gaël!
We’ve been spoiled working in Python’s numpy array library. Converting data types or byte order for numeric data in a numpy array is trivial (thanks to the work of numpy’s authors of course). When we’re in Objective-C land, the inability to change data types or byte orders on NSData instances is frustrating. So we’ve written [...]
After several folks had trouble getting the scikits.ann egg from the server listed in previous posts, I’ve uploaded the source and OS X 10.5 egg to PyPI. You can now install it via easy_install. Of course, you can still get it via the scikits SVN.
I hadn’t checked the scikits Developer’s Trac recently. Apparently it’s now OK to use non-BSD (but OSI approved) licenses in the scikits namespace. So I’ve moved our ANN wrapper back. You can get it from the scikits SVN or via easy_install -f http://rieke-server.physiol.washington.edu/~barry/python/ scikits.ann if you’re on OS X 10.5.
