Two suggestions from my side:
If you want to use Python, you can use the Spyder IDE (https://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/). Spyder is mainly designed for scientific programming. It even has built-in plotting capabilities. Another package I have used for that purpose is kst-plot. It is fast and has a lot of features: http://kst-plot.kde.org The good thing is that KST unlike many other KDE applications does not rely on a full KDE installation, but uses just QT libraries. There is a PPA for Ubuntu users: https://launchpad.net/~kst-plot/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

GNU Radio is a great tool for applications and dynamic experimentation, but it doesn't have a lot of support for static/offline analysis of time-series data. I.e. I've captured some signal data and I want to explore its properties interactively so I can figure out what I want to do with it in GNU Radio.

The sort of capabilities I'm looking for include: Read time-series data from files of different formats (some too large to fit in physical memory). Display the data, optionally applying linear transformations. Interactively pan and zoom. Jump forwards and backwards among time-registered events. Enable/disable/time-shift data overlays. Export selected data to new files. Calculate and display statistics and other non-linear transformations of selected data.

Ideally I'd like an open-source analysis framework that I can extend in Python or C++; something like the Midas DSP tool family. I'm aware of some Qt widgets like QtCustomPlot, and generic frameworks like matplotlib and octave, but not of any ready-to-use applications or frameworks that already provide the basic functionality described above. The keywords I've tossed at Google haven't produced any obvious solutions, and discussions I find in the archives here are a couple years old and seem to summarize as "use maplotlib/octave".

Is any such framework available now or in development? If not, is anybody interested in joining me offline to discuss the requirements and design for such a thing?

Thanks.

Peter
