In plain words

FLVIZ is a Windows GUI application that simulates deterministic finite automata (DFA) and visualizes state transitions. Built using QT and Graphviz, it allows users to design, test, and view finite automata as interactive diagrams. The tool is intended for students, educators, and computer science professionals who need to understand or demonstrate how finite automata work through visual representation of states and transitions.

    ASCII AUTOMATA is a tool to analyze the visual connectivity of characters in textmode fonts. It works by scoring edge connectivity of each piece and finding the best matching neighbour piece. Every time it places a piece, it "grows" towards the edges it touches by placing a matching piece. The red heatmap shows how frequently each character is used, useful for analyzing the fonts. I initially made it as a tool for myself. When I design textmode art fonts it is sometimes difficult to figure out if a specific character would actually be useful for drawing or not. I wanted a tool which would…

  • Synthesize TikZ Graphics Programs for Scientific Figures and Sketches2024 · github.com · ▲132

    Creating high-quality scientific figures can be time-consuming and challenging, even though sketching ideas on paper is relatively easy. Furthermore, recreating existing figures that are not stored in formats preserving semantic information is equally complex. To tackle this problem, we introduce DeTikZify, a novel multimodal language model that automatically synthesizes scientific figures as semantics-preserving TikZ graphics programs based on sketches and existing figures. We also introduce a Monte Carlo Tree Search-based inference algorithm that enables DeTikZify to iteratively refine its…
