Center/Right Align a Widget in QTreeWidget
Qt comes with a class which can be used to show data in a tree view. It can be used to show hierarchical data using either Model/View framework or by manually creating the…
Display FPS for VTK on Python
In the last post, I discussed how to get started with VTK on Python. In this post, I will show how to add support to show frames per second (FPS). The idea to calculate FPS is…
Getting Started with VTK for Python
The visualization toolkit (VTK) is a open source library displaying scientific data. VTK is maintained by Kitware, the same company which gave us CMake. VTK is written in C/C++…
QWidgetLogger: A Qt logging device for SLogLib
SLogLib is a flexible logging library written in C++. It comes with three logging devices: console, file, and memory but often there is a need to show log directly on the user…
Added Multi-threading Support in SLogLib
Adding thread safety to SLogLib with std::mutex and std::lock_guard.
Error loading numpy arrays
If you received "_Object arrays cannot be loaded when allow_pickle=False_" while loading a numpy array using it is because numpy has changed the default loading behaviour since…
Solution to Kaggle's Dogs vs. Cats Challenge using Logistic Regression
In the previous post, I discussed a solution to Kaggle's Dogs vs. Cats Challenge using Convolutional Neural Networks. CNN's takes time to train and I tried a number of different…
Solution to Kaggle's Dogs vs. Cats Challenge using Convolutional Neural Networks
Dogs vs. cats challenge [1] from Kaggle ended in Jan 2014 but it is still extremely popular for getting started in deep learning. This is because of two main reasons: the data set…
String Selection Widget for Qt5
Some time back, I developed a data entry application in Qt5. One of the requirements was to let the user select a single string from a predefined list of string. I developed a…
Color Picker Widget for Qt5
Qt5 support standard dialogs such as QFileDialog, QFontDialog, and QColorDialog, however, it does not provide a color picker to allow a user to pick a color. Recently, I need a…
Fill Disk Partition
Recently, I had to give away a computer with couple of disks in it. I wanted to securely erase data on these disks as I stored personal sensitive information on them. Using a…
Search Box using QLineEdit
This week, at work I had to implement a search box for a software I am working on. The search box is to filter some data dynamically as user types a query. I wanted to show a…

Few weeks ago, I published SLogLib (a cross-platform logging library) on GitHub. I wrote the user manual in a readme.md file as is the standard practice at GitHub. However, since…
Cross-platform high-resolution timer
Often there is a need to estimate the time it takes for a piece of code to run. This is useful not only for debugging but also for reporting the execution time of lengthy tasks to…
SLogLib: An easy to use, fully customizable and extensible, cross-platform logging library
A long time ago when I was doing PhD I was implementing a very complex geometric algorithm for computing intersection of two triangular meshes. There were bugs in code which would…
