| 11 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmThis course provides an introduction to machine learning that enables computers to learn AI models from data without being explicitly programmed. It comprises two parts: Part I covers the fundamentals of machine learning, and, Part II demonstrates the applications of various machine methods in solving a real world problem. Rather than presenting the key concepts and components of machine learning in an abstract way, this course introduces them with a small number of examples. By using plotting and animations, insight into some of the mechanics of machine learning can be had. Furthermore, the student will gain practical skills in a case study, in which each step of developing a machine learning project is presented. By the end of this course, the student will have a solid understanding and experience with some of the fundamentals of machine learning enabling subsequent exploration. Level: Introductory to Intermediate Length: Two 3-Hour Sessions Format: Lecture + Hands-on Prerequisites: Alliance Account Data preparation or equivalent knowledge. Basic Python knowledge and experience. Knowledge and experience with Tensorflow and Scikit-learn would also be helpful. (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024 |
| 11 Jun 9:00 am 12:00 pmThis is an introduction to the intermediate level OpenMP hand-on course. OpenMP is a standard parallel programming API that supports multi-platform shared-memory multiprocessing programming in C, C++, and Fortran. This one-day course will cover the principles of OpenMP compiler directives, library routines, and environment variables with step-by-step hand-on examples. Case studies include various approaches for loop parallelism. We will also talk about the Task constructs for irregular programs, and the Target constructs for accelerators such as GPU. Participants will have hand-on programming experience with OpenMP as well as how to compile and run Multi-thread OpenMP code on different alliance clusters. Level: Introductory Length: Two 3-Hour Sessions Format: Lecture + Hands-on (Hands-on portion is CPU only.) Prerequisites: Basic knowledge of C, C++, or Fortran (part of the 2024 Compute Ontario Summer School) Virtual | COSS2024 |
