Creating your own custom theme for Snowboard or Anemone

Contents

  • Getting Started
  • Theme Configuration
  • Creating Icons
  • Exporting Icons
  • Icon Masks
  • Packaging
  • Building the DEB

Getting Started

Note: Without the proper folder structure, your theme may not show up!

  • Create a new folder called themeName.theme (Replace themeName with your desired theme name)
  • Within themeName.theme folder, create another folder called IconBundles (You cannot change this name)

Theme Configuration

  • Now, inside the themeName.theme folder, create a file called Info.plist and paste the following
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
+<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
+  <plist version="1.0">
+  <dict>
+    <key>PackageName</key>
+    <string>ThemeName</string>
+    <key>ThemeType</key>
+    <string>Icons</string>
+  </dict>
+</plist>
+
  • Replace PackageName with the name of the Package and replace ThemeName with the Theme Name

Now, you might ask what is the difference between PackageName and ThemeName?

Well, if for example you want to publish two variants of your icons, one dark and one white but you do not want the user to seperately install them. Then, you would name the package MyTheme and include two themes Blackie and White thus creating two entries. More about this in the end

Creating Icons

  • Open up the Image Editor of your choice and create a new file having a resolution of 512x512

Note: Due to IconBundles, we just need to create the icons in one size and they get resized automatically :ghost:

Want to create rounded icons? Create them squared only, we will learn how to apply masks!

Exporting Icons

Note: All icons must be saved as *.png (Tip: This means you can even create partially transparent icons!)

  • All Icons must be saved in themeName.theme>IconBundles as bundleID-large.png

Image Classifier With Teachable Machines

Made for Google Code-In

Task Description

Using Glitch and the Teachable Machines, build a Book Detector with Tensorflow.js. When a book is recognized, the code would randomly suggest a book/tell a famous quote from a book. Here is an example Project to get you started: https://glitch.com/~voltaic-acorn

Details

  1. Collecting Data

Teachable Machine allows you to create your dataset just by using your webcam! I created a database consisting of three classes ( Three Books ) and approximately grabbed 100 pictures for each book/class

  1. Training

Training on teachable machines is as simple as clicking the train button. I did not even have to modify any configurations.

  1. Finding Labels

Because I originally entered the entire name of the book and it's author's name as the label, the class name got truncated (Note to self, use shorter class names :p ). I then modified the code to print the modified label names in an alert box.

  1. Adding a suggestions function

I first added a text field on the main page and then modified the JavaScript file to suggest a similar book whenever the model predicted with an accuracy >= 98%

  1. Running!

Here it is running!

Creating a Custom Image Classifier using Tensorflow 2.x and Keras for Detecting Malaria

Done during Google Code-In. Org: Tensorflow.

Imports

%tensorflow_version 2.x #This is for telling Colab that you want to use TF 2.0, ignore if running on local machine
+
+from PIL import Image # We use the PIL Library to resize images
+import numpy as np
+import os
+import cv2
+import tensorflow as tf
+from tensorflow.keras import datasets, layers, models
+import pandas as pd
+import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
+from keras.models import Sequential
+from keras.layers import Conv2D,MaxPooling2D,Dense,Flatten,Dropout
+

Dataset

Fetching the Data

!wget ftp://lhcftp.nlm.nih.gov/Open-Access-Datasets/Malaria/cell_images.zip
+!unzip cell_images.zip
+

Processing the Data

We resize all the images as 50x50 and add the numpy array of that image as well as their label names (Infected or Not) to common arrays.

data = []
+labels = []
+
+Parasitized = os.listdir("./cell_images/Parasitized/")
+for parasite in Parasitized:
+    try:
+        image=cv2.imread("./cell_images/Parasitized/"+parasite)
+        image_from_array = Image.fromarray(image, 'RGB')
+        size_image = image_from_array.resize((50, 50))
+        data.append(np.array(size_image))
+        labels.append(0)
+    except AttributeError:
+        print("")
+
+Uninfected = os.listdir("./cell_images/Uninfected/")
+for uninfect in Uninfected:
+    try:
+        image=cv2.imread("./cell_images/Uninfected/"+uninfect)
+        image_from_array = Image.fromarray(image, 'RGB')
+        size_image = image_from_array.resize((50, 50))
+        data.append(np.array(size_image))
+        labels.append(1)
+    except AttributeError:
+        print("")
+

Splitting Data

df = np.array(data)
+labels = np.array(labels)
+(X_train, X_test) = df[(int)(0.1*len(df)):],df[:(int)(0.1*len(df))]
+(y_train, y_test) = labels[(int)(0.1*len(labels)):],labels[:(int)(0.1*len(labels))]
+
s=np.arange(X_train.shape[0])
+np.random.shuffle(s)
+X_train=X_train[s]
+y_train=y_train[s]
+X_train = X_train/255.0
+

Model

Creating Model

By creating a sequential model, we create a linear stack of layers.

Note: The input shape for the first layer is 50,50 which corresponds with the sizes of the resized images

model = models.Sequential()
+model.add(layers.Conv2D(filters=16, kernel_size=2, padding='same', activation='relu', input_shape=(50,50,3)))
+model.add(layers.MaxPooling2D(pool_size=2))
+model.add(layers.Conv2D(filters=32,kernel_size=2,padding='same',activation='relu'))
+model.add(layers.MaxPooling2D(pool_size=2))
+model.add(layers.Conv2D(filters=64,kernel_size=2,padding="same",activation="relu"))
+model.add(layers.MaxPooling2D(pool_size=2))
+model.add(layers.Dropout(0.2))
+model.add(layers.Flatten())
+model.add(layers.Dense(500,activation="relu"))
+model.add(layers.Dropout(0.2))
+model.add(layers.Dense(2,activation="softmax"))#2 represent output layer neurons 
+model.summary()
+

Compiling Model

We use the Adam optimiser as it is an adaptive learning rate optimisation algorithm that's been designed specifically for training deep neural networks, which means it changes its learning rate automatically to get the best results

model.compile(optimizer="adam",
+              loss="sparse_categorical_crossentropy", 
+             metrics=["accuracy"])
+

Training Model

We train the model for 10 epochs on the training data and then validate it using the testing data

history = model.fit(X_train,y_train, epochs=10, validation_data=(X_test,y_test))
+
Train on 24803 samples, validate on 2755 samples

Making Predictions using Image Classifier (TensorFlow)

This was tested on TF 2.x and works as of 2019-12-10

If you want to understand how to make your own custom image classifier, please refer to my previous post.

If you followed my last post, then you created a model which took an image of dimensions 50x50 as an input.

First we import the following if we have not imported these before

import cv2
+import os
+

Then we read the file using OpenCV.

image=cv2.imread(imagePath)
+

The cv2. imread() function returns a NumPy array representing the image. Therefore, we need to convert it before we can use it.

image_from_array = Image.fromarray(image, 'RGB')
+

Then we resize the image

size_image = image_from_array.resize((50,50))
+

After this we create a batch consisting of only one image

p = np.expand_dims(size_image, 0)
+

We then convert this uint8 datatype to a float32 datatype

img = tf.cast(p, tf.float32)
+

Finally we make the prediction

print(['Infected','Uninfected'][np.argmax(model.predict(img))])
+

Infected

Polynomial Regression Using TensorFlow

In this tutorial you will learn about polynomial regression and how you can implement it in Tensorflow.

In this, we will be performing polynomial regression using 5 types of equations -

  • Linear
  • Quadratic
  • Cubic
  • Quartic
  • Quintic

Regression

What is Regression?

Regression is a statistical measurement that is used to try to determine the relationship between a dependent variable (often denoted by Y), and series of varying variables (called independent variables, often denoted by X ).

What is Polynomial Regression

This is a form of Regression Analysis where the relationship between Y and X is denoted as the nth degree/power of X. Polynomial regression even fits a non-linear relationship (e.g when the points don't form a straight line).

Imports

import tensorflow.compat.v1 as tf
+tf.disable_v2_behavior()
+import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
+import numpy as np
+import pandas as pd
+

Dataset

Creating Random Data

Even though in this tutorial we will use a Position Vs Salary dataset, it is important to know how to create synthetic data

To create 50 values spaced evenly between 0 and 50, we use NumPy's linspace function

linspace(lower_limit, upper_limit, no_of_observations)

x = np.linspace(0, 50, 50)
+y = np.linspace(0, 50, 50)
+

We use the following function to add noise to the data, so that our values

x += np.random.uniform(-4, 4, 50)
+y += np.random.uniform(-4, 4, 50)

Position vs Salary Dataset

We will be using https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tNL4jxZEfpaP4oflfSn6pIHJX7Pachm9/view (Salary vs Position Dataset)

!wget --no-check-certificate 'https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1tNL4jxZEfpaP4oflfSn6pIHJX7Pachm9' -O data.csv
+
df = pd.read_csv("data.csv")
+
df # this gives us a preview of the dataset we are working with
+
| Position          | Level | Salary  |
+|-------------------|-------|---------|
+| Business Analyst  | 1     | 45000   |
+| Junior Consultant | 2     | 50000   |
+| Senior Consultant | 3     | 60000   |
+| Manager           | 4     | 80000   |
+| Country Manager   | 5     | 110000  |
+| Region Manager    | 6     | 150000  |
+| Partner           | 7     | 200000  |
+| Senior Partner    | 8     | 300000  |
+| C-level           | 9     | 500000  |
+| CEO               | 10    | 1000000 |
+

We convert the salary column as the ordinate (y-coordinate) and level column as the abscissa

abscissa = df["Level"].to_list() # abscissa = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
+ordinate = df["Salary"].to_list() # ordinate = [45000,50000,60000,80000,110000,150000,200000,300000,500000,1000000]
+
n = len(abscissa) # no of observations
+plt.scatter(abscissa, ordinate)
+plt.ylabel('Salary')
+plt.xlabel('Position')
+plt.title("Salary vs Position")
+plt.show()
+

Defining Stuff

X = tf.placeholder("float")
+Y = tf.placeholder("float")
+

Defining Variables

We first define all the coefficients and constant as tensorflow variables having a random initial value

a = tf.Variable(np.random.randn(), name = "a")
+b = tf.Variable(np.random.randn(), name = "b")
+c = tf.Variable(np.random.randn(), name = "c")
+d = tf.Variable(np.random.randn(), name = "d")
+e = tf.Variable(np.random.randn(), name = "e")
+f = tf.Variable(np.random.randn(), name = "f")
+

Model Configuration

learning_rate = 0.2
+no_of_epochs = 25000
+

Equations

deg1 = a*X + b
+deg2 = a*tf.pow(X,2) + b*X + c
+deg3 = a*tf.pow(X,3) + b*tf.pow(X,2) + c*X + d
+deg4 = a*tf.pow(X,4) + b*tf.pow(X,3) + c*tf.pow(X,2) + d*X + e
+deg5 = a*tf.pow(X,5) + b*tf.pow(X,4) + c*tf.pow(X,3) + d*tf.pow(X,2) + e*X + f
+

Cost Function

We use the Mean Squared Error Function

mse1 = tf.reduce_sum(tf.pow(deg1-Y,2))/(2*n)
+mse2 = tf.reduce_sum(tf.pow(deg2-Y,2))/(2*n)
+mse3 = tf.reduce_sum(tf.pow(deg3-Y,2))/(2*n)
+mse4 = tf.reduce_sum(tf.pow(deg4-Y,2))/(2*n)
+mse5 = tf.reduce_sum(tf.pow(deg5-Y,2))/(2*n)
+

Optimizer

We use the AdamOptimizer for the polynomial functions and GradientDescentOptimizer for the linear function

optimizer1 = tf.train.GradientDescentOptimizer(learning_rate).minimize(mse1)
+optimizer2 = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(learning_rate).minimize(mse2)
+optimizer3 = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(learning_rate).minimize(mse3)
+optimizer4 = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(learning_rate).minimize(mse4)
+optimizer5 = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(learning_rate).minimize(mse5)
+
init=tf.global_variables_initializer()
+

Model Predictions

For each type of equation first we make the model predict the values of the coefficient(s) and constant, once we get these values we use it to predict the Y values using the X values. We then plot it to compare the actual data and predicted line.

Notes

Overfitting

> Overfitting refers to a model that models the training data too well.Overfitting happens when a model learns the detail and noise in the training data to the extent that it negatively impacts the performance of the model on new data. This means that the noise or random fluctuations in the training data is picked up and learned as concepts by the model. The problem is that these concepts do not apply to new data and negatively impact the models ability to generalise.

Source: Machine Learning Mastery

Basically if you train your machine learning model on a small dataset for a really large number of epochs, the model will learn all the deformities/noise in the data and will actually think that it is a normal part. Therefore when it will see some new data, it will discard that new data as noise and will impact the accuracy of the model in a negative manner

Building a Fake News Detector with Turicreate

In this tutorial we will build a fake news detecting app from scratch, using Turicreate for the machine learning model and SwiftUI for building the app

Note: These commands are written as if you are running a jupyter notebook.

Building the Machine Learning Model

Data Gathering

To build a classifier, you need a lot of data. George McIntire (GH: @joolsa) has created a wonderful dataset containing the headline, body and whether it is fake or real. Whenever you are looking for a dataset, always try searching on Kaggle and GitHub before you start building your own

Dependencies

I used a Google Colab instance for training my model. If you also plan on using Google Colab then I recommend choosing a GPU Instance (It is Free) This allows you to train the model on the GPU. Turicreate is built on top of Apache's MXNet Framework, for us to use GPU we need to install a CUDA compatible MXNet package.

!pip install turicreate
+!pip uninstall -y mxnet
+!pip install mxnet-cu100==1.4.0.post0
+

If you do not wish to train on GPU or are running it on your computer, you can ignore the last two lines

Downloading the Dataset

!wget -q "https://github.com/joolsa/fake_real_news_dataset/raw/master/fake_or_real_news.csv.zip"
+!unzip fake_or_real_news.csv.zip
+

Model Creation

import turicreate as tc
+tc.config.set_num_gpus(-1) # If you do not wish to use GPUs, set it to 0
+
dataSFrame = tc.SFrame('fake_or_real_news.csv')
+

The dataset contains a column named "X1", which is of no use to us. Therefore, we simply drop it

dataSFrame.remove_column('X1')
+

Splitting Dataset

train, test = dataSFrame.random_split(.9)
+

Training

model = tc.text_classifier.create(
+    dataset=train,
+    target='label',
+    features=['title','text']
+)

Testing the Model

est_predictions = model.predict(test)
+accuracy = tc.evaluation.accuracy(test['label'], test_predictions)
+print(f'Topic classifier model has a testing accuracy of {accuracy*100}% ', flush=True)
+
Topic classifier model has a testing accuracy of 92.3076923076923%
+

We have just created our own Fake News Detection Model which has an accuracy of 92%!

example_text = {"title": ["Middling ‘Rise Of Skywalker’ Review Leaves Fan On Fence About Whether To Threaten To Kill Critic"], "text": ["Expressing ambivalence toward the relatively balanced appraisal of the film, Star Wars fan Miles Ariely admitted Thursday that an online publication’s middling review of The Rise Of Skywalker had left him on the fence about whether he would still threaten to kill the critic who wrote it. “I’m really of two minds about this, because on the one hand, he said the new movie fails to live up to the original trilogy, which makes me at least want to throw a brick through his window with a note telling him to watch his back,” said Ariely, confirming he had already drafted an eight-page-long death threat to Stan Corimer of the website Screen-On Time, but had not yet decided whether to post it to the reviewer’s Facebook page. “On the other hand, though, he commended J.J. Abrams’ skillful pacing and faithfulness to George Lucas’ vision, which makes me wonder if I should just call the whole thing off. Now, I really don’t feel like camping outside his house for hours. Maybe I could go with a response that’s somewhere in between, like, threatening to kill his dog but not everyone in his whole family? I don’t know. This is a tough one.” At press time, sources reported that Ariely had resolved to wear his Ewok costume while he murdered the critic in his sleep."]}

Building the App using SwiftUI

Initial Setup

First we create a single view app (make sure you check the use SwiftUI button)

Then we copy our .mlmodel file to our project (Just drag and drop the file in the XCode Files Sidebar)

Our ML Model does not take a string directly as an input, rather it takes bag of words as an input. DescriptionThe bag-of-words model is a simplifying representation used in NLP, in this text is represented as a bag of words, without any regard for grammar or order, but noting multiplicity

We define our bag of words function

func bow(text: String) -> [String: Double] {
+        var bagOfWords = [String: Double]()
+        
+        let tagger = NSLinguisticTagger(tagSchemes: [.tokenType], options: 0)
+        let range = NSRange(location: 0, length: text.utf16.count)
+        let options: NSLinguisticTagger.Options = [.omitPunctuation, .omitWhitespace]
+        tagger.string = text
+        
+        tagger.enumerateTags(in: range, unit: .word, scheme: .tokenType, options: options) { _, tokenRange, _ in
+            let word = (text as NSString).substring(with: tokenRange)
+            if bagOfWords[word] != nil {
+                bagOfWords[word]! += 1
+            } else {
+                bagOfWords[word] = 1
+            }
+        }
+        
+        return bagOfWords
+    }
+

We also declare our variables

@State private var title: String = ""
+@State private var headline: String = ""
+@State private var alertTitle = ""
+@State private var alertText = ""
+@State private var showingAlert = false
+

Finally, we implement a simple function which reads the two text fields, creates their bag of words representation and displays an alert with the appropriate result

Complete Code

import SwiftUI
+
+struct ContentView: View {
+    @State private var title: String = ""
+    @State private var headline: String = ""
+    
+    @State private var alertTitle = ""
+    @State private var alertText = ""
+    @State private var showingAlert = false
+    
+    var body: some View {

The image files are not actually JPEG, thus we first need to save them in the correct format for Turicreate

from PIL import Image
+import glob
+
+
+folders = ["default","smoke","fire"]
+for folder in folders:
+  n = 1
+  for file in glob.glob("./data/data/img_data/train/" + folder + "/*.jpg"):
+    im = Image.open(file)
+    rgb_im = im.convert('RGB')
+    rgb_im.save((folder + "/" + str(n) + ".jpg"), quality=100)
+    n +=1 
+  for file in glob.glob("./data/data/img_data/train/" + folder + "/*.jpg"):
+    im = Image.open(file)
+    rgb_im = im.convert('RGB')
+    rgb_im.save((folder + "/" + str(n) + ".jpg"), quality=100)
+    n +=1
+


!mkdir train

Tinkering with an Android TV

So I have an Android TV, this posts covers everything I have tried on it

Contents

  1. Getting TV's IP Address
  2. Enable Developer Settings
  3. Enable ADB
  4. Connect ADB
  5. Manipulating Packages

IP-Address

These steps should be similar for all Android-TVs

  • Go To Settings
  • Go to Network
  • Advanced Settings
  • Network Status
  • Note Down IP-Address

The other option is to go to your router's server page and get connected devices

Developer-Settings

  • Go To Settings
  • About
  • Continously click on the "Build" option until it says "You are a Developer"

Enable-ADB

  • Go to Settings
  • Go to Developer Options
  • Scroll untill you find ADB Debugging and enable that option

Connect-ADB

  • Open Terminal (Make sure you have ADB installed)
  • Enter the following command adb connect <IP_ADDRESS>
  • To test the connection run adb logcat

Manipulating Apps / Packages

Listing Packages

  • adb shell
  • pm list packages

Installing Packages

  • adb install -r package.apk

Uninstalling Packages

  • adb uninstall com.company.yourpackagename

Making My First Vaporwave Track (Remix)

I finally completed my first quick and dirty vaporwave remix of "I Want It That Way" by the Backstreet Boys

V A P O R W A V E

Vaporwave is all about A E S T H E T I C S. Vaporwave is a type of music genre that emerged as a parody of Chillwave, shared more as a meme rather than a proper musical genre. Of course this changed as the genre become mature

How to Vaporwave

The first track which is considered to be actual Vaporwave is Ramona Xavier's Macintosh Plus, this set the the guidelines for making Vaporwave

  • Take a 1980s RnB song
  • Slow it down
  • Add Bass and Treble
  • Add again
  • Add Reverb ( make sure its wet )

There you have your very own Vaporwave track.

( Now, there are some tracks being produced which are not remixes and are original )

My Remix

Where is the Programming?

The fact that there are steps on producing Vaporwave, this gave me the idea that Vaporwave can actually be made using programming, stay tuned for when I publish the program which I am working on ( Generating A E S T H E T I C artwork and remixes)

Fixing X11 Error on macOS Catalina for AmberTools 18/19

I was trying to install AmberTools on my macOS Catalina Installation. Running ./configure -macAccelerate clang gave me an error that it could not find X11 libraries, even though locate libXt showed that my installation was correct.

Error:

Could not find the X11 libraries; you may need to edit config.h
+   to set the XHOME and XLIBS variables.
+Error: The X11 libraries are not in the usual location !
+       To search for them try the command: locate libXt

+       On RedHat OS's install the XFree86-devel package.
+       On Ubuntu OS's install the xorg-dev and xserver-xorg packages.
+
+          ...more info for various linuxes at ambermd.org/ubuntu.html

+       To build Amber without XLEaP, re-run configure with '-noX11:
+            ./configure -noX11 --with-python /usr/local/bin/python3 -macAccelerate clang
+Configure failed due to the errors above!
+

I searched on Google for a solution. Sadly, there was not even a single thread which had a solution about this error.

The Fix

Simply reinstalling XQuartz using homebrew fixed the error brew cask reinstall xquartz

If you do not have XQuartz installed, you need to run brew cask install xquartz

Compiling Open Babel on iOS

Due to the fact that my summer vacations started today, I had the brilliant idea of trying to run open babel on my iPad. To give a little background, I had tried to compile AutoDock Vina using a cross-compiler but I had miserably failed.

I am running the Checkr1n jailbreak on my iPad and the Unc0ver jailbreak on my phone.

But Why?

Well, just because I can. This is literally the only reason I tried compiling it and also partially because in the long run I want to compile AutoDock Vina so I can do Molecular Docking on the go.

Let's Go!

How hard can it be to compile open babel right? It is just a simple software with clear and concise build instructions. I just need to use cmake to build and the make to install.

It is 11 AM in the morning. I install clang, cmake and make from the Sam Bingner's repository, fired up ssh, downloaded the source code and ran the build command.`clang

Fail No. 1

I couldn't even get cmake to run, I did a little digging around StackOverflow and founf that I needed the iOS SDK, sure no problem. I waited for Xcode to update and transferred the SDKs to my iPad

scp -r /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS.sdk root@192.168.1.8:/var/sdks/
+

Them I told cmake that this is the location for my SDK 😠. Successful! Now I just needed to use make.

Fail No. 2

It was giving the error that thread-local-storage was not supported on this device.

Strange but it is alright, there is nothing that hasn't been answered on the internet.

I did a little digging around and could not find a solution 😔

As a temporary fix, I disabled multithreading by going and commenting the lines in the source code.

Packaging as a deb

This was pretty straight forward, I tried installing it on my iPad and it was working pretty smoothly.

Moment of Truth

So I airdropped the .deb to my phone and tried installing it, the installation was successful but when I tried obabel it just aborted.

Turns out because I had created an install target of a separate folder while compiling, the binaries were referencing a non-existing dylib rather than those in the /usr/lib folder. As a quick workaround I transferred the deb folder to my laptop and used otool and install_name tool: install_name_tool -change /var/root/obabel/ob-build/lib/libopenbabel.7.dylib /usr/lib/libopenbabel.7.dylib for all the executables and then signed them using jtool

I then installed it and everything went smoothly, I even ran obabel and it executed perfectly, showing the version number 3.1.0 ✌️ Ahh, smooth victory.

Nope. When I tried converting from SMILES to pdbqt, it gave an error saying plugin not found. This was weird.

So I just copied the entire build folder from my iPad to my phone and tried running it. Oops, Apple Sandbox Error, Oh no!

I spent 2 hours around this problem, only to see the documentation and realise I hadn't setup the environment variable 🤦‍♂️

The Final Fix ( For Now )

export BABEL_DATADIR="/usr/share/openbabel/3.1.0"
+export BABEL_LIBDIR="/usr/lib/openbabel/3.1.0"
+

This was the tragedy of trying to compile something without knowing enough about compiling. It is 11:30 as of writing this. Something as trivial as this should not have taken me so long. Am I going to try to compile AutoDock Vina next? 🤔 Maybe.

Also, if you want to try Open Babel on you jailbroken iDevice, install the package from my repository ( You, need to run the above mentioned final fix :p ). This was tested on iOS 13.5, I cannot tell if it will work on others or not.

Hopefully, I add some more screenshots to this post.

Edit 1: Added Screenshots, had to replicate the errors.

Workflow for Lightning Fast Molecular Docking Part One

My Setup

  • macOS Catalina ( RIP 32bit app)
  • PyMOL
  • AutoDock Vina
  • Open Babel

One Command Docking

obabel -:"$(pbpaste)" --gen3d -opdbqt -Otest.pdbqt && vina --receptor lu.pdbqt --center_x -9.7 --center_y 11.4 --center_z 68.9 --size_x 19.3 --size_y 29.9 --size_z 21.3  --ligand test.pdbqt
+

To run this command you simple copy the SMILES structure of the ligand you want an it automatically takes it from your clipboard, generates the 3D structure in the AutoDock PDBQT format using Open Babel and then docks it with your receptor using AutoDock Vina, all with just one command.

Let me break down the commands

obabel -:"$(pbpaste)" --gen3d -opdbqt -Otest.pdbqt
+

pbpaste and pbcopy are macOS commands for pasting and copying from and to the clipboard. Linux users may install the xclip and xsel packages from their respective package managers and then insert these aliases into their bash_profile, zshrc e.t.c

alias pbcopy='xclip -selection clipboard'
+alias pbpaste='xclip -selection clipboard -o'
+
$(pbpaste)
+

This is used in bash to evaluate the results of a command. In this scenario we are using it to get the contents of the clipboard.

The rest of the command is a normal Open Babel command to generate a 3D structure in PDBQT format and then save it as test.pdbqt

&&
+

This tells the terminal to only run the next part if the previous command runs successfully without any errors.

vina --receptor lu.pdbqt --center_x -9.7 --center_y 11.4 --center_z 68.9 --size_x 19.3 --size_y 29.9 --size_z 21.3  --ligand test.pdbqt
+

This is just the docking command for AutoDock Vina. In the next part I will tell how to use PyMOL and a plugin to directly generate the coordinates in Vina format --center_x -9.7 --center_y 11.4 --center_z 68.9 --size_x 19.3 --size_y 29.9 --size_z 21.3 without needing to type them manually.

Compiling AutoDock Vina on iOS

Why? Because I can.

Installing makedepend

makedepend is a Unix tool used to generate dependencies of C source files. Most modern programs do not use this anymore, but then again AutoDock Vina's source code hasn't been changed since 2011. The first hurdle came when I saw that there was no makedepend command, neither was there any package on any development repository for iOS. So, I tracked down the original source code for makedepend (https://github.com/DerellLicht/makedepend). According to the repository this is actually the source code for the makedepend utility that came with some XWindows distribution back around Y2K. I am pretty sure there is a problem with my current compiler configuration because I had to manually edit the Makefile to provide the path to the iOS SDKs using the -isysroot flag.

Editing the Makefile

Original Makefile ( I used the provided mac Makefile base )

BASE=/usr/local
+BOOST_VERSION=1_41
+BOOST_INCLUDE = $(BASE)/include
+C_PLATFORM=-arch i386 -arch ppc -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk -mmacosx-version-min=10.4
+GPP=/usr/bin/g++
+C_OPTIONS= -O3 -DNDEBUG
+BOOST_LIB_VERSION=
+
+include ../../makefile_common
+

I installed Boost 1.68.0-1 from Sam Bingner's repository. ( Otherwise I would have had to compile boost too 😫 )

Edited Makefile

BASE=/usr
+BOOST_VERSION=1_68
+BOOST_INCLUDE = $(BASE)/include
+C_PLATFORM=-arch arm64 -isysroot /var/sdks/Latest.sdk
+GPP=/usr/bin/g++
+C_OPTIONS= -O3 -DNDEBUG
+BOOST_LIB_VERSION=
+
+include ../../makefile_common
+

Updating the Source Code

Of course since Boost 1.41 many things have been added and deprecated, that is why I had to edit the source code to make it work with version 1.68

Error 1 - No Matching Constructor

../../../src/main/main.cpp:50:9: error: no matching constructor for initialization of 'path' (aka 'boost::filesystem::path')
+return path(str, boost::filesystem::native);
+

This was an easy fix, I just commented this and added a return statement to return the path

return path(str)
+

Error 2 - No Member Named 'nativefilestring'

../../../src/main/main.cpp:665:57: error: no member named 'native_file_string' in 'boost::filesystem::path'
+                std::cerr << "\n\nError: could not open \"" << e.name.native_file_string() << "\" for " << (e.in ? "reading" : "writing") << ".\n";
+                                                               ~~~~~~ ^
+../../../src/main/main.cpp:677:80: error: no member named 'native_file_string' in 'boost::filesystem::path'
+                std::cerr << "\n\nParse error on line " << e.line << " in file \"" << e.file.native_file_string() << "\": " << e.reason << '\n';
+                                                                                      ~~~~~~ ^
+2 errors generated.
+

Turns out native_file_string was deprecated in Boost 1.57 and replaced with just string

Error 3 - Library Not Found

This one still boggles me because there was no reason for it to not work, as a workaround I downloaded the DEB, extracted it and used that path for compiling.

Error 4 - No Member Named 'nativefilestring' Again.

But, this time in another file and I quickly fixed it

Moment of Truth

Obviously it was working on my iPad, but would it work on another device? I transferred the compiled binary and

The package is available on my repository and only depends on boost. ( Both, Vina and Vina-Split are part of the package)

Introduction to AR.js and Natural Feature Tracking

AR.js

AR.js is a lightweight library for Augmented Reality on the Web, coming with features like Image Tracking, Location based AR and Marker tracking. It is the easiest option for cross-browser augmented reality.

The same code works for iOS, Android, Desktops and even VR Browsers!

It was initially created by Jerome Etienne and is now maintained by Nicolo Carpignoli and the AR-js Organisation

NFT

Usually for augmented reality you need specialised markers, like this Hiro marker (notice the thick non-aesthetic borders 🤢)

This is called marker based tracking where the code knows what to look for. NFT or Natural Feature Tracing converts normal images into markers by extracting 'features' from it, this way you can use any image of your liking!

I'll be using my GitHub profile picture

Creating the Marker!

First we need to create the marker files required by AR.js for NFT. For this we use Carnaux's repository 'NFT-Marker-Creator'.

Now we have the required files in the output folder

$ ls output

+me.fset  me.fset3 me.iset

Creating the HTML Page

Create a new file called index.html in your project folder. This is the basic template we are going to use. Replace me with the root filename of your image, for example NeverGonnaGiveYouUp.png will become NeverGonnaGiveYouUp. Make sure you have copied all three files from the output folder in the previous step to the root of your project folder.

+<script src="https://raw.githack.com/AR-js-org/AR.js/master/aframe/build/aframe-ar-nft.js"></script>
+
+<style>
+  .arjs-loader {
+    height: 100%;
+    width: 100%;
+    position: absolute;
+    top: 0;
+    left: 0;
+    background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
+    z-index: 9999;
+    display: flex;
+    justify-content: center;
+    align-items: center;
+  }
+
+  .arjs-loader div {
+    text-align: center;
+    font-size: 1.25em;
+    color: white;
+  }
+</style>
+
+<body style="margin : 0px; overflow: hidden;">
+  <div class="arjs-loader">
+    <div>Calculating Image Descriptors....</div>
+  </div>
+  <a-scene
+    vr-mode-ui="enabled: false;"
+    renderer="logarithmicDepthBuffer: true;"
+    embedded
+    arjs="trackingMethod: best; sourceType: webcam;debugUIEnabled: false;"
+  >
+    <a-nft
+      type="nft"
+      url="./me"
+      smooth="true"
+      smoothCount="10"
+      smoothTolerance=".01"
+      smoothThreshold="5"
+    >
+    
+    </a-nft>
+    <a-entity camera></a-entity>
+  </a-scene>
+</body>
+

In this we are creating a AFrame scene and we are telling it that we want to use NFT Tracking. The amazing part about using AFrame is that we are able to use all AFrame objects!

Adding a simple box

Let us add a simple box!

<a-nft .....>
+    <a-box position='100 0.5 -180' material='opacity: 0.5; side: double' scale="100 100 100"></a-box>
+</a-nft>
+

Now to test it out we will need to create a simple server, I use Python's inbuilt SimpleHTTPServer alongside ngrok

In one terminal window, cd to the project directory. Currently your project folder should have 4 files, index.html, me.fset3, me.fset and me.iset

Open up two terminal windows and cd into your project folder then run the following commands to start up your server.

In the first terminal window start the Python Server

$ cd ~/CodingAndStuff/ARjs
+$ python2 -m SimpleHTTPServer
+
+Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 ...
+

In the other window run ngrok ( Make sure you have installed it prior to running this step )

$ ngrok http 8000
+

Now copy the url to your phone and try running the example

👏 Congratulations! You just built an Augmented Reality experience using AR.js and AFrame

Adding a Torus-Knot in the box

Edit your index.html

<a-nft ..>
+    <a-box ..>
+        <a-torus-knot radius='0.26' radius-tubular='0.05' ></a-torus-knot>
+    </ a-box>
+</ a-nft>
+

Where are the GIFs?

Now that we know how to place a box in the scene and add a torus knot in it, what do we do next? We bring the classic internet back!

AFrame GIF Shader is a gif shader for A-Frame created by mayognaise.

First things first

Add <script src="https://rawgit.com/mayognaise/aframe-gif-shader/master/dist/aframe-gif-shader.min.js"></script> to <head>

Change the box's material to add the GIF shader

...
+<a-box position='100 0.5 -180' material="shader:gif;src:url(https://media.tenor.com/images/412b1aa9149d98d561df62db221e0789/tenor.gif);opacity:.5" .....>
+

Bonus Idea: Integrate it with GitHub's new profile Readme Feature!

1) Host the code using GitHub Pages

2) Create a new repository ( the name should be your GitHub username )

3) Add QR Code to the page and tell the users to scan your profile picture

??) Profit 💸

Here is a screenshot of me scanning a rounded version of my profile picture ( It still works! Even though the image is cropped and I haven't changed any line of code )

Hello World

Why a Hello World post?

Just re-did the entire website using Publish (Publish by John Sundell). So, a new hello world post :)
