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 […]
Overview of Adaptive Optimization Methods for Stochastic Oracles
Resumes of graduate students and post docs are welcome for internship and job opportunities.
Social media platforms are a rich source for data. The University of Michigan collects data with the Twitter Decahose, maintaining an archive of 10% of tweets made from the past decade. This collection is maintained in collaboration by MIDAS, CSCAR and ARC. This workshop covers what the Twitter Decahose is, the process to obtain access, […]
Exchanging ideas in numerical analysis, scientific computing and related application areas.
The SIAM student chapter at the University of Michigan is hosting its 3rd Annual Student Mini-symposium in Applied Mathematics. This event will allow students from different disciplines in the area to see what is being done in the field and promote interest in applied mathematics in general. This event is open to all graduate students […]
There's a ton of data on the web! You can collect it by using "web scraping!" But what is web scraping? And how do you do it? This workshop is a beginner's guide to web scraping and how to get started using Python and the BeautifulSoup library. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of […]
