This workshop will go over methods and best practices for running machine learning applications on Great Lakes. We will briefly outline machine learning before stepping through a hands-on example problem to load a project and submit a job to the HPC cluster. Participants are expected to be familiar with Python, the command line, and basic Great Lakes functionality (logging in and navigating the directory structure). Participants must create a user account on Great Lakes prior to the workshop and are required to pre-register to gain access to a training account.
