• 🔭 I’m currently working on: computer vision research, dog poop detection
• 🌱 I’m currently learning: as much as possible, including: lean4, rust/c, javascript.
• 🤔 I’m looking for help with: implementing the line-profiler 6.0 roadmap, fixing bugs / improving my repos, lean4, a delayed-image speed issue
• 💬 Ask me about: doctests, Python, graphs, image processing
• 📫 How to reach me: mastodon / bsky
• 🏭 Born at 353 ppm CO₂
• 🔐 GPG Key: 4AC8B478335ED6ED667715F3622BE571405441B4
• 🧠 I enjoy learning and value the role of critical thinking in growth.
• ⚡ Fun fact: The holographic principle predicts that the maximum information that can fit in a region of space is determined by its surface area, not its volume.

To learn about me in a professional context, see my Kitware bio, where I've been employed from 2007-~2010, break for grad school, and then again from 2017 - present. For my published and some unpublished papers, see my google scholar profile. I also have a blog where I muse.

I am a maintainer of all of the projects on this front page. I either own them or I am a major contributor. The following table gives an overview, and then I have a few small blurbs about some of them.

Here is the rough full-dependency structure of these packages. Note many of the packages (e.g. ubelt) have minimal versions with no dependencies, but the visualization is for full dependency sets.

And here are some logical groupings of the packages with links and descriptions:

• https://github.com/Erotemic/xdoctest - Python doctest parser and runner. (mature)
• https://github.com/Erotemic/ubelt - Python utilities and stdlib extensions. (mature)
• https://github.com/Erotemic/mkinit - Autogenerate Python __init__.py files that expose submodule APIs at the top-level. (mature)
• https://github.com/Erotemic/vimtk - My Vim plugin, which contains useful functional macros and key remaps. (stable)
• https://github.com/Erotemic/xdev - Python utilities useful for development and debugging. (stable)
• https://github.com/Erotemic/progiter - Small standalone progress bar. (mature)
• https://github.com/Erotemic/timerit - Pure python syntax for timeit-like timings of blocks of code. (mature)
• https://github.com/Erotemic/git_well - Git command line extensions. (stable)
