Introduction ParaView Catalyst has yielded some amazing results. Such results include iso-surfacing and generating images with 256K Message Passing Interface (MPI) ranks on Mira at Argonne National Laboratory, as well as computing particle paths and outputting iso-surfaced extracts at 42K cores using Adaptable Input/Output System (ADIOS). The wide variety of outputs that have been obtained […]

The implementation of numerical simulations has led to several benefits for the scientific community, including cost and time savings, improved product performance, and new product design and manufacturing. With high-performance computing (HPC), the potential benefits are significantly greater [1]. For years, the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) and ParaView development teams have been dedicated to providing state-of-the-art […]

Kitware Participates in DARPA Memex Kitware is developing software extensions that aim to address complex search problems common in fields such as security and defense as part of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Memex program. A key use case of the technology is the ability of law enforcement to discover and address human […]

The VTK development team is pleased to announce that VTK 6.3 has entered the release candidate stage! The official release notes will be made available when the final release occurs in the next few weeks. In the meantime, here is a preview: VTK 6.3 offers new features such as a multithreaded Gaussian splatter class and vtkPlotArea for rendering area (or range) […]

ITK witnessed a major milestone with the release of version 4.8.0. Now, ITK is more accessible to non-C++ programmers and more available on mobile, high-performance computing (HPC), and web-browser platforms. This major milestone was made possible through ITK’s large and active development community. As a memento to those who contributed to the success of ITK […]

MapTK 0.6.0 is a major release that offers advanced functionality, new algorithms, and a preview of features that will be introduced in the 1.0.0 release, including C and Python bindings. The 0.6 release also features a switch to Eigen, which provides a core linear algebra data structure and additional algorithms (e.g., matrix and vector). Another highlight […]

New Python wrapping and cross-compilation features enhance support for ITK’s active community. On behalf of the Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit (ITK) community, Kitware is pleased to announce the release of ITK 4.8.0. This is a major release that offers substantial benefits to the medical computing community by making the toolkit more accessible to non-C++ […]

Update: Viridis and three other color maps with similar design parameters are now included in ParaView 5.0! This week at SciPy2015 I attended the talk by Stéfan van der Walt and Nathaniel Smith on designing a better default color map for Python (you can view a recording of the talk here). matplotlib’s current default color map, shown […]

With simple zero-dimensional data, basic statistics of a population can be displayed with a boxplot. A boxplot shows the median, interquartile range, and outliers in a population described using single scalar values. For example, you can plot the distribution of ages for a random sampling of 40 individuals. The boxplot shown below enables you to identify the median age, […]

Visit Kitware’s CVPR booth to learn more about our work with Project Tango and learn about our other CVPR activities here Project Tango is an effort by Google to create a mobile device capable of perceiving and understanding 3D space.  As part of this effort, the Project Tango team has led the development of an augmented […]

This post describes how to cross-compile the Insight Toolkit (ITK)'s Python wrapping for the Raspberry Pi 2. The default operating system on the Raspberry Pi 2 is Raspbian, a Debian-based Linux distribution. While Debian provides packages for ITK., these packages are not currently available on Raspbian. We will create a Debian package optimized for the Raspberry […]
