OVERVIEW This workshop provides an introduction to processing CoreLogic data using PySpark on the Great Lakes cluster. The CoreLogic dataset contains aggregated data from individual, parcel-level real estate transactions and financial records. U-M has licensed access to Tax, Deed, and Foreclosure data at the parcel level for every county in the United States. We will […]
OVERVIEW 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 […]
Professor Yun S. Song is working in mathematical and computational biology.
This reading group moderated by consultants from CSCAR will focus on spatial analysis especially as practiced in social sciences. We will meet for 1.5 to 2 hours every month on the fourth Thursday and discuss one or two chapters from relevant graduate level textbooks. We will focus on the concepts and applications but will also […]
This is a continuation of the previous workshop "Software Development For Research: Version Control Principles". Now, having learned the basics of version control, we will see how to use the distributed features of Git to publish your project, interact with your collaborators, and incorporate changes from volunteer contributors; for this, we will utilize GitHub, the […]
Inferring physical properties and topographical features from free surface flow data
Mesoscale Modeling of Plasticity in Metallic Materials via Advancement of the Discrete Dislocation Dynamics Simulation Method
Software development and computer programming is increasingly a major part of scientific research. When small or large teams are involved in coding the same project, it’s a good idea to adopt team-based practices, such as “pair programming” or “code review” meetings, to ensure quality is maintained in the code. This hands-on workshop will provide examples […]
