Loading ...I’ve looked on github for a good C++ implementation of Cover Trees for nearest-neighbors search, but I didn’t find one. I may have overlooked some repositories, but in the end, implementing it myself wasn’t that difficult.

Currently, we are recording our first album, and while we used Traktion in the past, I’m considering moving to Sonar (it is continuously updated and has a great reputation, also I’ve played a few time in the past with its ancestor Cakewalk).
So let’s talk about the book’s comprehensive guide.

Random numbers are important in a raytracer because one needs oversampling to have anti-aliasing, and to have a more realistic rendering, we need to add some jitter inside the oversampling. I won’t talk about this here, it is not my point (yet). So I’ve decided to resurrect IRT from the dead, at least long enough to test parallel random number generators. It is now on Github, and I’ve also changed the matrix library to Eigen. Some optimizations later, it is slightly faster than before, although it is still very far from Bikker’s work.
The Python wrappers are still working BTW.
Let’s hope I find some time to finish this before getting back at VSTs

The book explores the different approaches of the latest VCS tools, with their advantages and drawbacks. Also, it delves into some algorithmic designs of Distributed VCSs. I’ve already discussed some of these tools, but the book is not a flame war against one DVCS, but more an explanation of all of them.

The code is available under the GPL2 on github and on Sourceforge.
The plugin can be download on the Sourceforge project page.
The plugin was tested with Tracktion 3 (Windows XP).

It allows to create a mosaics database and then generate a photomosaic from this database.
For instance, here is an original image:

I hope to fix these mistakes this month, I really hope I can get QtVST to work again.
