CiteSpace
A widely used tool for visual exploration of scientific literature.
Visit the new site: https://citespace.podia.com CiteSpace generates interactive visualizations of structural and temporal patterns and trends of a scientific field. It facilitates a systematic review of a knowledge domain through an in-depth visual analytic process. It can process citation data from popular sources such as the Web of Science, Scopus, Dimensions, and the Lens. CiteSpace also supports basic visual analytic functions for datasets without citation-related information, for example, PubMed, CNKI, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses. CiteSpace reveals how a field of research has evolved, what intellectual turning points are evident along a critical path, and what topics have attracted attention. CiteSpace can be applied repeatedly so as to track the development of a field closely and extensively. The e-book How to Use CiteSpace explains the design principles and functions along with illustrative examples in more detail: https://leanpub.com/howtousecitespace -

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. -

AutoResearchClaw
Autonomous research from idea to paper. Chat an Idea. Get a Paper 🦞
AutoResearchClaw is an open-source framework designed to automatically generate full academic research papers from a single idea or topic. Built in Python, it orchestrates a multi-stage research pipeline that gathers literature, formulates hypotheses, runs experiments, analyzes results, and writes the final paper. The system retrieves real academic references from sources such as arXiv and Semantic Scholar to ensure credible citations. It can automatically generate code for experiments, run them in a sandbox environment, and analyze the results with statistical methods. The platform also uses multi-agent debate and automated peer review processes to refine research findings and improve paper quality. By combining literature discovery, experimentation, and writing automation, AutoResearchClaw aims to turn research ideas into conference-ready papers with minimal human intervention. -

DIG
A library for graph deep learning research
The key difference with current graph deep learning libraries, such as PyTorch Geometric (PyG) and Deep Graph Library (DGL), is that, while PyG and DGL support basic graph deep learning operations, DIG provides a unified testbed for higher level, research-oriented graph deep learning tasks, such as graph generation, self-supervised learning, explainability, 3D graphs, and graph out-of-distribution. If you are working or plan to work on research in graph deep learning, DIG enables you to develop your own methods within our extensible framework, and compare with current baseline methods using common datasets and evaluation metrics without extra efforts. It includes unified implementations of data interfaces, common algorithms, and evaluation metrics for several advanced tasks. Our goal is to enable researchers to easily implement and benchmark algorithms. -

Hypernomicon
Hypertext-infused philosophy personal database software
Hypernomicon is a personal productivity/database application for researchers that combines structured note-taking, mind-mapping, management of files (e.g., PDFs) and folders, and reference management into an integrated environment that organizes all of the above into semantic networks or hierarchies in terms of debates, positions, arguments, labels, terminology/concepts, and user-defined keywords by means of database relations and automatically generated hyperlinks (hence ‘Hyper’ in the name). Hypernomicon keeps track of all these things in a highly structured, thoroughly indexed and user friendly relational database, automatically generates semantic hyperlinks between all of them, and presents this information in many different forms so that you are constantly informed of ways all of your information is related that you had not realized. -

ThingPulse ESP8266 Weather Station
ESP8266 Weather Station library supporting OpenWeatherMap
This code works best with the NodeMCU V2 ESP8266 module and an 0.96" OLED display. To get you up and running in no time we created a kit that contains all the necessary parts. By buying this and other kits from us you are funding the maintenance and development of this library. Make sure you use a version of the Arduino IDE which is supported by the ESP8266 platform. If you are using the PlatformIO environment for building, choose one of the available IDE integration or the Atom-based IDE, install libraries 561, 562, and 563 with "platformio lib install", adapt the WeatherStationDemo.ino file to your needs. The simple class uses the header date and time to set the clock. NTP-based time class written by Fabrice Weinberg. We fixed many bugs and improved performance and changed the API a little bit. Either compare your code to the updated WeatherStationDemo or read through the upgrade guide. -

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. -

Laser Kids
Homemade lasers and the braniac laboratory
Welcome to the home of homemade lasers and to the braniac laboratory. This site is devoted to the homemade lasers. And guides where it is described how to build them step by step. Any laser described in the guides can be build from scratch using only the common accessible resources. You won't need rare crystals, optics, mirrors or anything like this. On the other hand all lasers here are the demo of the concept. (Rather) cheap, quick-and-dirty mockups. Feel free to make for them proper housing and shining handles. My task is simple - to show that lasers ARE simple. Not less not more. -

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. -
