SUZUKI Research Center for Functional Materials, National Institute for Materials Science, 1-2-1 Sengen, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-0047, Japan * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT New programs for fitting using an equivalent circuit model and data visualization of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were developed using Python and its open-source libraries. Executable programs have a graphical user interface and can run on a Microsoft Windows operating system without utilizing other platform applications. Many practical functions were implemented, e.g., supporting various file formats, graphical support functions to obtain a good initial guess, display interactive three-dimensional plots of fi CORRECTED PROOF the spectrum, a modi ed logarithmic Hilbert integral transform test, display multiple spectra data, etc. The developed executable programs were released by free of charge for use under the MIT license. © The Author(s) 2021.

  • Publication Quality 2D Graphs with Less Manual Effort Due to Explicit Use of Dual Coordinate Systems Daniel a Wagenaar
    Wagenaar Source Code for Biology and Medicine 2014, 9:22 http://www.scfbm.org/content/9/1/22 SOFTWARE REVIEW Open Access Publication quality 2D graphs with less manual effort due to explicit use of dual coordinate systems Daniel A Wagenaar Abstract Creating visually pleasing graphs in data visualization programs such as Matlab is surprisingly challenging. One common problem is that the positions and sizes of non-data elements such as textual annotations must typically be specified in either data coordinates or in absolute paper coordinates, whereas it would be more natural to specify them using a combination of these coordinate systems. I propose a framework in which it is easy to express, e.g., “this label should appear 2 mm to the right of the data point at (3, 2)” or “this arrow should point to the datum at (2, 1) and be 5 mm long.” I describe an algorithm for the correct layout of graphs of arbitrary complexity with automatic axis scaling within this framework. An implementation is provided in the form of a complete 2D plotting package that can be used to produce publication-quality graphs from within Matlab or Octave. Keywords: Data plotting, Typography, Matlab Background the label location in data coordinates. By trial and error, Computer programs for the two-dimensional graphical the user can experiment and find that in one particu- display of numerical data abound (e.g., Gnuplot [1], Igor lar graph the annotation should be placed at (1, 0.95) Pro [2], Matlab [3], Octave [4]). Such programs commonly and in another at (1, 0.6) to appear at the desired dis- allow specification of data in arbitrary coordinates, and tance below the data point at (1, 1).

Due to maturation of combinatorial methods and their successful application in many fields, the modern combinatorial laboratory produces diverse and complex data sets requiring advanced analysis and visualization techniques. In order to utilize these large 1 data sets to uncover new knowledge, the combinatorial scientist must engage in data science. For data science tasks, most laboratories adopt common-purpose data manage- ment and visualization software. However, processing and cross-correlating data from various measurement tools is no small task for such generic programs. Here we describe COMBIgor, a purpose-built open-source software package written in the commercial Igor Pro environment, designed to offer a systematic approach to loading, storing, pro- cessing, and visualizing combinatorial data sets.
