Introduction to Deep Neural Networks with Keras/TensorFlow

Your Desktop

A BlueJeans link will be sent to all registered participants. Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are used as a machine learning method for both regression and classification problems. Keras is a high-level, Python interface running on top of multiple neural network libraries, including the popular library TensorFlow. In this workshop, participants will learn how to quickly use the Keras interface to perform nonlinear regression and classification with standard fully-connected DNNs, as well […]

Building Better Data-Driven Products

Your Desktop

This workshop will introduce participants to using R for presenting data-driven results, with an eye toward reproducible methods. After an introduction to concepts related to reproducible programming and research, demonstrations of standard R markdown as well as overviews of different formats will be provided, including exercises. Prereq:  Some basic experience using R is required. Link: http://m-clark.github.io/data-processing-and-visualization/
