Software testing is a fundamental aspect of any serious engineering effort, but at the same time it is such a young discipline. Importance of testing has been known in the industry for decades from a theoretical point of view, yet it took it a very long time to catch up... [Read More]

I spent several hours over the past week testing Neovim features and plugins to update my vim and Neovim configuration, in what became a major overhaul. This post is a concise summary of changes with their rationale and directions. [Read More]

When writing a post about my recent (Neo)vim configuration overhaul, I wanted to start with an overview of how my (Neo)vim usage evolved in time and how it reached the point it stands at now. This overview ended up being a fairly lengthy write-up, which I therefore decided to publish... [Read More]

This post is a short recap of a funny situation where I had to deal with a seemingly innocent-looking e-book that ended up being unreadable on my e-reader. The solution turned out to be relatively simple, but I have not found references to any similar problem on the web, therefore... [Read More]

LaTeX is a vital component of my work, and usually it is my go-to tool whenever I need to typeset any non-trivial document. TeX is a de facto standard tool for scientific typesetting, and in technical fields most publications, books, and reports are usually composed with it, most often using... [Read More]

Note (2024-08-31): This post was written in February 2020. Support for building and deploying Jekyll sites on GitHub pages has been streamlined in the meantime and can now be performed with stock actions. See jekyll-build-pages and deploy-pages. [Read More]

In Uppsala I spent several months investigating the generation of displacement fields with known volume changes, and I even implemented a software suite for the purpose. This might seem an odd topic to pick as working subject, so it is worth a bit of clarification about its purpose and applications.... [Read More]

This post is meant to be a brief introduction to some productivity tools that can make a command line workflow smoother and more efficient. While well known, standard tools with similar function already exist (e.g. bash, grep, find, etc.), the tools presented hereafter have a handy user interface with sensible... [Read More]

Currently, I work mostly on image registration algorithms, and I devoted quite some time looking into groupwise registration techniques. In its essence, groupwise registration is a process that aligns multiple images, mapping them to a common reference space, without having to explicitly define such reference space (e.g. without manually selecting...

Visualisation is a complementary but very important part of my work on image analysis. And since I work mainly with tridimensional volume images, visualisation is inherently a more complicated task compared to image analysis in only two dimensions. To help my work, I decided to implement a small tool for... [Read More]
