2022 Spring Series

GETTING STARTED WITH HAL

Overview: This tutorial will introduce students to HAL system, how to interact with it through Open OnDemand interface, including Jupiter notebook, and through command line interface via SSH. The tutorial will cover the Anaconda environment, batch job submission, data transfer, as well as an overview to the basic machine learning workflow.


Introduction to Machine Learning and Neural Networks

Overview: This tutorial will introduce how machine learning can be accomplished with neural networks and will go over various examples from simple dense networks to convolutional network architectures using TensorFlow framework on HAL system.

MACHINE LEARNING First Deep Neural Network

Recording

Overview: Everyone talks about Deep Learning and using Neural Networks. The algorithms have been found in certain cases to produce better estimates than humans! They are great for data prediction and understanding more about your data. This workshop is an introduction to Deep Learning using Tensorflow and Keras. A Jupyter notebook is used for hands-on student exercises along with a set of lecture slides.

Convolution Neural Network Models

Recording

Overview: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are used primarily for anything involving images – image classification, to image segmentation, to putting bounding boxes around an object. This interactive workshop includes a Jupyter notebook using TensorFlow and Keras, along with a set of lecture slides. In addition, this Lecture introduces the concept of Inference. This is processing data through a trained model without any back propagation.

Inference Optimization with NVIDIA TensorRT

Overview: In many applications of deep learning models, we would benefit from reduced latency (time taken for inference). This tutorial will introduce NVIDIA TensorRT, an SDK for high-performance deep learning inference. We will go through all the steps necessary to convert a trained deep learning model to an inference-optimized model on HAL.
