Mandelbrot set
Complex fractal shape shown here in tribute to the mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot

Definition: The Mandelbrot set M is the set of all parameters c ∈ C for which the Julia set J(f) of f(z) = z^2 + c is connected. Algorithm developed with Python. Uses the following modules: numpy for array operations, pyplot for graphics and numba for jit (just-in-time compiler for speeding up each run). Developed during the Wesleyan course: 'Introduction to Complex Analysis'. Details: the colormap used is "gnuplot2". Number of iterations: 2048. Window size: x ranges from -0.74877 to 0.74872 and y ranges from 0.065053 to 0.065103

Machine learning:
Classification algorithms

Left photo: Iris flower data from the scikit-learn python library for machine learning. This famous (Fisher's or Anderson's) iris data set gives the measurements in centimeters of the variables sepal length and width and petal length and width, respectively, for 50 flowers from each of 3 species of iris. The species are Iris setosa, versicolor, and virginica. Right photo: Wine classification analysis. Code to be added in the near future. Developed during Harvard course: 'Using Python for research'.

Markov chain:
Random walk

This random walk starts out from the origin (0,0) and continues for a total of 10.000 steps. Each step is randomly chosen from the standard normal distribution with mean equal to zero and standard deviation of unity. Developed during the Harvard course: 'Using Python for research'.

Illustris zoom-simulation
Analysis of merging galaxy clusters

Left: Gas particles around two merging galaxy clusters taken from the Illustris simulation. Galaxies with total star mass larger than 1e7 is included. These galaxies are surrounded by circles of radii given by their half-mass-radii.

Right: Only galaxies with total star mass larger than 1e7 is included. These galaxies are surrounded by circles of radii given by the half-mass-radii. The stars belonging to these galaxies are shown as well. Data provided by Martin Sparre

Data visualization of triggered events
Analysis of test data from the Medico company Saninudge

Left: Box plot (This kind of plot shows the three quartile values of the distribution along with extreme values. The “whiskers” extend to points that lie within 1.5 IQRs of the lower and upper quartile, and then observations that fall outside this range are displayed independently. Importantly, this means that each value in the boxplot corresponds to an actual observation in the data). Right: violinplot (combines a boxplot with the kernel density estimation procedure).
