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. -

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. -

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. -

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. -

AllenNLP
An open-source NLP research library, built on PyTorch
AllenNLP makes it easy to design and evaluate new deep learning models for nearly any NLP problem, along with the infrastructure to easily run them in the cloud or on your laptop. AllenNLP includes reference implementations of high quality models for both core NLP problems (e.g. semantic role labeling) and NLP applications (e.g. textual entailment). AllenNLP supports loading "plugins" dynamically. A plugin is just a Python package that provides custom registered classes or additional allennlp subcommands. There is ecosystem of open source plugins, some of which are maintained by the AllenNLP team here at AI2, and some of which are maintained by the broader community. AllenNLP will automatically find any official AI2-maintained plugins that you have installed, but for AllenNLP to find personal or third-party plugins you've installed, you also have to create either a local plugins file named .allennlp_plugins in the directory where you run the allennlp command. -

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. -

Open Science
Open Science is an open-source, local-first, model-agnostic research
Open Science is an open-source, local-first AI research workbench built for scientific discovery on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Researchers can describe a task in plain language and let an agent inspect files, execute Python or R, search the web, and call scientific data connectors. The system is model-agnostic, allowing users to connect supported providers, compatible gateways, or subscription-based backends. It produces reproducible reports, tables, figures, and other artifacts inside a unified project workspace. Users can inspect tool activity, approve sensitive actions, branch earlier conversations, and compare alternative research paths without losing prior work. Immutable artifact versions and detailed provenance connect results to code, inputs, execution history, environment evidence, conversation context, and review findings. -

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. -

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. -
