“Julia ist kein Zeichenprogramm” 1 In order to demonstrate what you can achieve with Quarto, and provide a cute demonstration of how to use the Julia display stack, I want to make a tiny demo getting Julia to output some SVGs by writing TikZ code.
Using Julia to template TikZ code is how I make most of my graphics. Even though I prefer Typst to LaTeX these days, I still find TikZ…
The Chanterelle Colorscheme For the last year or so, I have been reading a little bit about the theory behind colorschemes in my spare time. This is something I have been meaning to get into for a while; visualizations are an important part of technical communication, and a nice colorscheme can make or break the visualization. Using Viridis is all well and good, but I like to put a personal touch…
Projects Perceptually Uniform Color Schemes Julia I'm currently working on a Julia package for working with gradients and generating perceptually uniform color schemes based on Beziér splines.
Chanterelle Colorscheme Julia GitHub Chanterelle is a perceptually uniform family of color schemes for data visualization. It is also used to decorate this website.
The palette has also been turned…
A new Spatial Hashing approach to Neighborhood Queries on the GPU A lot of algorithms hinges on knowing, for any point in a set, its neighbors closer than a fixed radius of influence $R$:
The set in question.
This probem is known as the Fixed-radius near neighbors problem – or FRNN. Algorithms for solving it has applications ranging from particle simulations, to protein folding, to…
