SUMMARY:Spatial Point Process Modelling in R
DESCRIPTION:A BlueJeans link will be sent to all registered participants.\n\nSpatial point process models help us analyze the geometrical pattern of points (events) in space and find application in a variety of fields including image processing\, public health\, forestry\, ecology\, and business. This workshop will provide an introduction to point process models focusing on the conceptual aspects and implementation in R.\n\nThe concepts and techniques transfer naturally to similar problems in 1-D (e.g. events in time). So\, the workshop will also be useful for participants who want to learn about analysis of random events in time.

SUMMARY:CSCAR/MIDAS workshops on data\, methodology\, and Covid
DESCRIPTION:CSCAR and MIDAS will hold a series of on-line technical workshops on the use of publicly-available data for analyzing human health at the population level. Some of the analyses and data are relevant to understanding the covid pandemic\, but the focus of these workshops is on methods that are of broader use in population health research. Participants will gain practical skills in using intermediate methods from statistics and data science to gain meaningful insights from various types of data. Python code and links to all relevant data will be provided for each workshop. The first workshop in this series will be held on May 18th from 3-5pm\, and will cover the use of generalized linear modeling and generalized PCA to gain insight into mortality trends among various demographic subgroups in the United States\, using data from the CDC.

SUMMARY:Research computing on the Great Lakes Cluster
DESCRIPTION:OVERVIEW \nThis workshop will provide a brief overview of the components of the Great Lakes Cluster. The main body of the workshop will cover the resource manager and scheduler\, creating submissions scripts to run jobs and the options available in them\, and hands-on experience. By the end of the workshop\, every participant should have created a submission script\, submitted a job\, tracked its progress\, and collected its output. Participants will have several working examples from which to build their own submissions scripts in their own home directories. \nPRE-REQUISITES\nThis course assumes familiarity with the Linux command line as might be got from the CSCAR/ARC-TS workshop Introduction to the Linux Command Line. In particular\, participants should understand how files and folders work\, be able to create text files using the nano editor\, be able to create and remove files and folders\, and understand what input and output redirection are and how to use them. \nINSTRUCTORS\nDr. Charles J Antonelli\nResearch Computing Services\nLSA Technology Services \nCharles is a member of the LSA Technology Services Research team at the University of Michigan\, where he is responsible for high performance computing support and education\, and was an Advocate to the Departments of History and Communications.
