The Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute (SCI) is a research institute located on the University of Utah campus in Salt Lake City, Utah.

(TO DO: expand, organize, cross-reference, illustrate.)

Description

Its objective is to create new scientific computing techniques, tools, and systems with applications to various fields, including:

Open source software releases

Besides research in the areas mentioned above, a particular focus of SCI has been to develop innovative and robust software packages, and release them as open-source software.

The latest releases and source code lives on Github.

Examples:

  • SCIRun, a Problem Solving Environment (PSE), for modeling, simulation and visualization of scientific problems.
  • BioMesh3D, a tetrahedral mesh generator, that is capable of generating multi-material quality meshes out of segmented biomedical image data.
  • Seg3D, an interactive image segmentation tool.
  • ImageVis3D, a lightweight, feature-rich volume rendering application.
  • Visus, Visualization Streams for Ultimate Scalability.
  • ShapeWorks, a new method for constructing compact statistical point-based models of ensembles of similar shapes that does not rely on any specific surface parameterization.
  • map3d, a scientific visualization application written to display and edit three-dimensional geometric models and scalar time-based data associated with those models.
  • Uintah, a set of software components and libraries that facilitate the solution of partial differential equations on structured adaptive mesh refinement grids using hundreds to thousands of processors.
  • FiberViewer, a comprehensive, integrated, open-source environment for medical image visualization and analysis.
  • AtlasWerks, an open-source (BSD license) software package for medical image atlas generation.
  • NCR Toolset, a collection of software tools for the reconstruction and visualization of neural circuitry from electron microscopy data.
  • FluoRender, an interactive rendering tool for confocal microscopy data visualization.
  • ElVis, a visualization system created for the accurate and interactive visualization of scalar fields produced by high-order spectral/hp finite element simulations.
  • VisTrails, a scientific workflow management system.
  • Afront, a tool for meshing and remeshing surfaces.
  • Cleaver, A MultiMaterial Tetrahedral Meshing API and Application.
  • EpiCanvas, Infectious Disease Weather Map.
  • FEBio, is a nonlinear finite element solver that is specifically designed for biomechanical applications.
  • PreView, a Finite Element (FE) pre-processor that has been designed specifically to set up FE problems for FEBio
  • PostView, a Finite Element (FE) post-processor that is designed to post-process the results from FEBio.
  • STCR, a MATLAB-based program to reconstruct undersampled DCE radial data, with compressed sensing methods.
  • ExoshapeAccel, a C/C++ application for estimating continuous evolution from a discrete collection of shapes, designed to produce realistic anatomical trajectories.
  • VISPACK, a C++ library that includes matrix, image, and volume objects.
  • Teem, a collection of libraries for representing, processing, and visualizing scientific raster data.
