Zoom link will be emailed after filling out the registration form. \nMachine learning (ML) methods are widely adopted by the academia and industry for applications in science\, engineering\, healthcare\, and humanities. One of the greatest advantages of ML is that they are pretty general and applicable for predictive analytics in many fields. For example\, if someone learned how to apply ML methods to classify animal images\, they can apply the same set of protocols in classifying birds or cars or motorboats. To apply ML for a specific problem\, the practitioners don’t have to go through all the complex mathematics or a lot of statistics but they need to learn the best practices to train and validate the models. \nIn this workshop\, after a brief overview\, we will focus on doing hands-on training in applying ML models on various data types including image\, text\, and time series. We will work through the use cases of classification and regression problems and discuss where to apply supervised or unsupervised methods. \nObjectives of the workshop \n\nUnderstand supervised and unsupervised methods\nDefine metrics for classification vs regression\nFind out which features are important in a given dataset\nLearn to apply ML models such as Decision Trees\, Random Forest\, and Support Vector Machines\nPerform clustering and dimensionality reductions (PCA\, t-sne\, K-means\, etc.)\nSearch the parameter space – hyperparameter optimization\n\nIf you have questions or need help\, please email Bala Desinghu. \nAmarel account: Apply here as soon as possible.

Zoom link will be emailed after filling out the registration form. \nWorkshop content: In recent years\, Python has become one of the top programming languages for doing data analysis due to its inherent advantages such as simplicity\, readability\, portability\, etc.\, However\, Python is slow compared to C or Fortran\, and it does not manage memory well. These limitations\, with speed and memory management\, may not be significant when analyzing small datasets\, but they become bottlenecks when analyzing big datasets. \nTo address the challenges associated with big data analytics\, the Python community developed and tested several techniques. In this workshop\, we will go through some of these techniques including vectorization\, parallelization\, just in time compilation\, and distributed task executions. We will do hands-on exercises to emphasize the following solutions. \nObjectives \n\nHow to speed up the data analysis?\nWhat to do when the data set size exceeds the available physical memory?\nHow to distribute the workloads when doing machine learning for big data sets?\n\nIf you have questions or need help\, please email Bala Desinghu. \nAmarel account: Apply here as soon as possible.
