Device Activity Tracker
A phone number can reveal whether a device is active
Device Activity Tracker is a platform created to monitor and log the activity of digital devices across networks, giving users visibility into usage patterns, connection events, app launches, and interaction timelines that can be applied for security monitoring, parental oversight, productivity tracking, or device lifecycle analytics. It integrates with devices via sensors or APIs, continually capturing activity metrics and reporting them to a centralized dashboard that visualizes patterns over time, highlights anomalies, and correlates events across systems or users. Because it is designed with privacy and transparency in mind, the tracker offers configurable retention policies and granular consent controls, ensuring administrators can tailor what gets logged and how long data is stored. -

moebinv
C++ libraries for manipulations in non-Euclidean geometry
These are two C++ libraries for symbolic, numeric and graphical manipulations in non-Euclidean geometry. There is GUI which allows to interact with these libraries by mouse clicks. On a dipper level the first library Cycle implements basic operations on cycles (quadrics) through FSCc construction. The second library Figure operates on ensembles of cycles connected by Moebius-invariant relations, e.g. orthogonality. Both libraries are based on the Clifford algebra capacities of the GiNaC computer algebra system (http://ginac.de). Besides C++ libraries there is a Python wrapper, which can be used in interactive mode (https://codeocean.com/capsule/7952650/). Both libraries work in arbitrary dimensions and signatures of metric. Additionally, there are some 2D/3D-specific routines including a visualisation to PostScript files through Asymptote (http://asymptote.sourcefourge.net) software. The source is written in literate programming NoWeb. -

Docear
An Academic Literature Suite
Docear (pronounced dog-ear) is what we call an “academic literature suite”. It integrates everything you need to search, organize and create academic literature in a single application: a digital library, reference manager, PDF and file manager, note taking and mind mapping. And the best: Docear works seemlessly with many existing tools like Mendeley, Microsoft Word, and Foxit Reader. Docear is free and open source, based on Freeplane, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Technology and developed by scientists from around the world, among others from OvGU, and the University of California, Berkeley. -

S-Match
S-Match is a semantic matching framework.
S-Match is a semantic matching framework. S-Match takes any two tree like structures (such as database schemas, classifications, lightweight ontologies) and returns a set of correspondences between those tree nodes which semantically correspond to one another. S-Match contains implementations of the semantic matching, minimal semantic matching and structure preserving semantic matching algorithms. S-Match applies as a solution in many fields, including: information integration, ontology evolution and alignment, peer-to-peer information sharing, digital libraries integration, web service composition, agent communication, and query answering on the web. S-Match is extendable to host new algorithms. -

PS-Drone
Programming a Parrot AR.Drone 2.0 with Python - The Easy Way
The PS-Drone-API is a full featured SDK, written in and for Python, for Parrot's AR.Drone 2.0. It was designed to be easy to learn, but it offers the full set of the possibilities of the AR.Drone 2.0, including Sensor-Data (aka NavData), Configuration and full Video-support. The video function is not restricted to mere viewing, it is also possible to analyze video images data using OpenCV2. Obviously, the PS-Drone is perfect for teaching purposes; however, even the requirements for professional purposes can be satisfied. PS-Drone comes with a tutorial, explaining its most important commands and the drone's most important sensor values. The examples are easy to understand for people with little programming experience. A full list of commands and a description of all sensor data is available in a detailed documentation. It took several months to create PS-Drone, so it would be nice to get some donations for further development (e.g. Parrot's Bebop) and as a appreciation. -

Libro
An interactive program for statistical analysis of texts
A cross-platform text analysis program written in Python and Free Pascal/Lazarus which scans a whole text file (in plain text, HTML, EPUB, or ODT formats) and ranks all used words according to frequency, performing a quantitative analysis of the text using Shannon-Weaver information statistic and Zipf power law function. It counts words, sentences, chars, spaces, and syllables. Also computes readability indexes (Gunning-Fog, Coleman-Liau, Automated Readability Index (ARI), SMOG grade, Flesch–Kincaid grade level and Flesch Reading Ease). -

AI Researcher
An autonomous AI researcher
AI Researcher is an experimental open-source project that demonstrates how multiple AI agents can collaborate to conduct complex research tasks from start to finish with minimal human intervention. It orchestrates agents that can generate research questions, perform literature reviews, execute experiments, analyze results, and synthesize findings into structured outputs like reports or code. Each agent operates with clear roles — such as researcher, analyst, and summarizer — and they communicate through a task-management interface that ensures progress tracking and iterative refinement. The system emphasizes modularity, so teams can swap in new reasoning modules, data retrieval strategies, or domain knowledge bases depending on the research topic. Through self-supervised feedback loops, agents adjust their strategies based on prior outcomes, improving both the quality and relevance of results over time.
