NumFOCUS is applying to be a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2017. NumFOCUS, an umbrella organization, supports and promotes world-class, innovative, open source scientific software.
This Git repository stores information about NumFOCUS' application for Google Summer of Code 2017 and participation in previous editions.
Read this document to know how you can apply for the GSoC program. Please also check our ideas list.
For any questions please open an issue in our issue tracker. Or send a email to gsoc@numfocus.org, our mailing list address, and please consider subscribing to the mailing list at https://groups.google.com/a/numfocus.org/forum/#!forum/gsoc.
In alphabetic order.
The Data Retriever is a package manager for data. It downloads, cleans, and stores publicly available data, so that analysts spend less time cleaning and managing data, and more time analyzing it. |
|
The FEniCS Project is a collection of tools with extensive features for the automated and efficient solution of differential equations. Partial differential equations can be specified in near-mathematical notation (as finite element variational problems) and solved automatically. |
|
"Topic Modelling for Humans." Gensim is an open-source Python library for topic modelling, document indexing and similarity retrieval with large corpora. Target audience is the natural language processing (NLP) and information retrieval (IR) community. Memory-independent and distributed algorithms. |
|
matplotlib is a Python 2D plotting library which produces publication quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive environments across platforms. |
|
MDAnalysis is an object-oriented python toolkit to analyze molecular dynamics trajectories generated by CHARMM, Gromacs, Amber, NAMD, or LAMMPS.MDAnalysis allows one to read molecular dynamics trajectories and access the atomic coordinates through NumPy arrays. This provides a flexible and relatively fast framework for complex analysis tasks that integrates well with the wider Python ecosystem. |
|
nteract is an open-source, desktop-based interactive computing application that is focused on accessibility and composability. nteract allows users to edit and share interactive notebook documents that contain explanatory text, executive code, and interactive visualizations. By combining the best of the web and the best of the desktop, nteract provides a user experience that is seamless and enjoyable for all. |
|
PyMC3 is a python module for Bayesian statistical modeling and model fitting which focuses on advanced Markov chain Monte Carlo and variational fitting algorithms. Its flexibility and extensibility make it applicable to a large suite of problems. Website | Gitter | Ideas Page |
|
Stan is a probabilistic programming language for data analysis, enabling automatic inference for a large class of statistical models. It features full Bayesian inference with Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling, approximate Bayesian inference with variational inference and the Laplace approximation, and penalized maximum likelihood estimation with optimization. The language integrates a Math Library written in C++, which can act as a stand-alone, and features derivatives for arithmetic, special functions, probability functions, and linear algebra. |
All the projects listed here. Other projects should send a email to gsoc@numfocus.org.
To participate under the NumFOCUS umbrella, a sub-org must:
-
Have one sub-org admin and at least two mentors (the sub-org admin can be one of the mentors) who are willing to commit to the full GSoC period.
-
Have a good ideas page.
