This workshop will demonstrate how to perform image segmentation using the FastAI Python library, which is built on the deep learning library PyTorch. Some familiarity with Python is expected, but no previous experience with FastAI or PyTorch is needed. The workshop will be done online via BlueJeans. We will run the code using Google Colab, which requires a […]

BlueJeans link will be shared with registered attendees 24 hours before start Modern 3D game engines and computer hardware can render convincing graphics, rivaling that of pre-rendered 3D animation. But video games still require special optimization techniques and tricks. This relates directly to perceived capabilities for data visualization and serious applications: we can generate and […]

The focus of the workshop is twofold: to learn cartography principles for generating single and multivariable choropleth maps, and explore functionalities of R for generating static and interactive web maps. We will use the COVID19 data available at (https://github.com/nytimes/covid-19-data) and combine it with information from Census and other sources to visualize spatial patterns and make […]
