SCATMECH is a library of object-oriented C++ computer codes originally developed for disseminating models for polarized light scattering from surfaces and aerosols and for diffraction from gratings. The pySCATMECH package has been developed as an interface to the SCATMECH library, simplifying use of the codes and allowing for more rapid development of software for these applications.

The objective of this shape retrieval contest is to retrieve 3D models those are relevant to a query range scan. This task corresponds to a real life scenario where the query is a 3D range scan of an object acquired from an arbitrary view direction. The algorithm should retrieve the relevant 3D objects from a database.

Task description:
In response to a given set of range scan queries, the task is to evaluate similarity scores with the target models and return an ordered ranked list along with the similarity scores for each query.

The objective of SHREC'14 Track is to evaluate the performances of different sketch-based 3D model retrieval algorithms using a large scale hand-drawn sketch query dataset on a generic 3D model dataset.

Objective:
The objective of this track is to evaluate the performance of 3D shape retrieval approaches on a large-sale comprehensive 3D shape database which contains different types of models, such as generic, articulated, CAD and architecture models.

Objective: The objective of this track is to evaluate the performance of 3D shape retrieval approaches on Generic 3D Dataset.

Introduction: With the increasing number of 3D models are created every day and stored in databases, effectively searching a 3D repository for 3D shapes which are similar to a given 3D query model has become an important area of research. Benchmarking allows researchers to evaluate the quality of the results of different 3D shape retrieval approaches.

The objective of this SHREC'12 track is to evaluate the performance of different sketch-based 3D model retrieval algorithms using both hand-drawn and standard line drawings sketch queries on a watertight 3D model dataset.

Python module 'optbayesexpt' uses optimal Bayesian experimental design methods to control measurement settings in order to efficiently determine model parameters. Given an parametric model - analogous to a fitting function - Bayesian inference uses each measurement 'data point' to refine model parameters. Using this information, the software suggests measurement settings that are likely to efficiently reduce uncertainties. A TCP socket interface allows the software to be used from experimental control software written in other programming languages.

JARVIS (Joint Automated Repository for Various Integrated Simulations) is a repository designed to automate materials discovery using classical force-field, density functional theory, machine learning calculations and experiments.

The Force-field section of JARVIS (JARVIS-FF) consists of thousands of automated LAMMPS based force-field calculations on DFT geometries. Some of the properties included in JARVIS-FF are energetics, elastic constants, surface energies, defect formations energies and phonon frequencies of materials.

The Free Energy and Advanced Sampling Simulation Toolkit (FEASST) is a free, open-source, modular program to conduct molecular and particle-based simulations with flat-histogram Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics methods. It is a software written in C++ and python which is made publicly available to aid in reproducibility. It is also provided as a service to the scientific community in which there are few , if any, Monte Carlo programs that support flat histogram methods and advanced sampling algorithms. This software is expected to be updated frequently with new methods.
