I’m currently working on a university project where I’ll be creating free 3D visualizations, and I’m looking for both interior and exterior design projects to bring to life. If you’ve got a project in mind, I’d love to help visualize it!

What I’m Looking For:

  • Interior Projects: Whether it’s a Modern Apartment Living Room, Luxury Hotel Lobby, Home Office, Scandinavian Kitchen, Bohemian Bedroom, Corporate Office Reception, or any other interior space, send me your ideas!
  • Exterior Projects: I’m interested in Urban Residential Complexes, Contemporary Office Buildings, Eco-Friendly Public Libraries, Luxury Villas, Retail Complexes, High-Rise Residential Towers, and more.

What You’ll Need to Provide - Email me: (mr.brisian@gmail.com)

  • Project Brief: A short description of your vision, including theme, colour scheme, style, etc.
  • Floor Plan or Architectural Plan: An accurate plan with dimensions.

What I’ll Deliver:

  • At least 3 high-quality rendered images from different angles for interiors (wide, mid-range, close-up) and exteriors (front-facing, aerial, eye-level).
  • If time allows, I might include a walkthrough video for select projects.

Slots Available: I have 10 slots available for free projects, so it’s first come, first served. I’ll prioritize based on the level of detail and accuracy in the plans and project briefs.

Graphic Design Apps Recommendation

Hi all, I've only tried CorelDRAW to create designs, maps, and posters. Another app I've used is Canva, but I feel it has limited features. Do you know what the best app is for designing maps? Or do you have any recommendations?

This is an example of the output I want to design. I hope I can get some insights here.
Thank you in advance.

Effective ways to present results from multiple models (20+) on 6 datasets

I've been working on an ML project where the pipeline can be decomposed into 3 stages (say A,B,C) and each stage has 3 possible modules I can plug, resulting in 20+ models (some combinations of the 27 are excluded). I also have 6 datasets, resulting in a table with ~120 numbers which I have to suitably present in a report/paper (not all numbers need to be shared per se). I am curious about how people usually make sense of so many numbers.

For instance, I can fix all but one stage (say A, B) and vary the remaining one (say C), which will give me a (3,6) table and one of the C variants might emerge as a winner but a valid question could be why set A and B as the chosen modules. If I try going for a (3,6) table per A, B combination, I end up with too many tables making the reader's life difficult. Moreover, I would like to do this for every stage of the pipeline.

I have seen LLM papers use the spider chart to compare different models across tasks but in these cases, the polygons usually seem to be contained within one another fully (i.e. one model dominates another across ~all datasets). However, my work is in the graph domain and the datasets aren't that big making the scores noisy and thus not always resulting in such a consistent dominance of any method over another. This may make the graph unappealing (even not readable in most cases).

I am most interested in established norms in the ML community on what constitutes an honest evaluation of the different phases of the pipeline separately (can I vary just one stage while fixing others like mentioned above), and also possible visualizations of these numbers (like the spider chart). I am also open to possible aggregations across datasets or models (aggregating across (3A,3B,1C) to compare variants of C). The score I am considering is the mAP score (mean average precision) typically used in ranking and object detection problems.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I am sorry if I am being very non-specific here, feel free to ask for more details.

Tool for visualizing very long chronological charts

Hi,

I have a few files containing large chronological datasets ( for example long measurements of computer sensors - HWiNFO log files ) that i would like to visualize, but using Excel doesn't seem very practical. I'm looking for a preferably free tool that would be able to pan, zoom and show the value that's being hovered over with a mouse. Maybe even display two lines over each other. ArcGIS Pro can do something like that, even though it's not specialized for that, but it's paid. Do you have any tips?

EDIT: I'm looking for something similar to this: https://youtu.be/sZc5DLY6RGA

Looking for an application to make a flowchart with curved lines

I did this chart(only a quarter of it) below in photoshop and it was a huge pain in the ass to do. It's a conspiracy chart for my dnd game. Looking to translate it to somewhere where editing it would be easier.

Updated my graph

I got so much help on this plot, thanks to everyone who gave me advice! I ended up making the line plot with a 30 day moving average to fit with typical time series visualization and I think it looks much better. The moving average really helped clear up the trends in the data and make it less messy overall.

Which of these graphs is a better way to display the data I have?

I thought the lines made trends more clear to me but a professor said the opposite, that the lines muddy up the graph, and now I switch my opinion every time I look at them.

Need a graph to show connections between groups by way of common members

I'm newer to social network graphing and can find tons of pointers to network diagrams (and automated tools) that identify natural groupings given known 1-1 connections between individuals. What if I know the groups (e.g. committees within an organization) and want to visualize the connections between groups via known common members (and where each member may be part of up to 'n' groups, not just two)?

BONUS if I can demonstrate the higher 'weight' of group leaders (e.g. committee co-Chair) versus regular members and/or if I can have a simple weight of connection between two groups (e.g. a working group on X and the sounding board/advisory group that provides occasional feedback to X, versus a group not at all about X).
