Overview

Instructor(s): Dr. Zhenhua He

Time: Tuesday, November 29, 2022 — 10:00AM-12:30PM CT

Location: Zoom session

Prerequisite(s): Active HPRC account, basic Python

This technology lab contains a set of four sessions to help a new user start with machine learning projects on ACES and FASTER supercomputers at the Texas A&M High Performance Research Computing. You will learn how to load modules with jupyter lmod extension, manipulate and visualize data with Pandas and Matplotlib, use Scikit-learn for linear regression and classification applications and use Keras to create and train a simple image classification model with deep neural networks (DNN).

Agenda

There are totally 4 lab sessions

• Lab 1 - Jupyter Notebook (15 mins)

We will load required modules with Jupyter Lmod extension and run JupyterLab on the HPRC Portal.

• Lab 2 - Data Exploration (30 mins)

We will go through simple examples with two popular Python modules: Pandas and Matplotlib for simple data exploration.

• Lab 3 - Machine Learning (30 minutes)

We will learn to use scikit-learn for linear regression and classification applications.

• Lab 4 - Deep Learning (30 minutes)

We will learn how to use Keras to create and train a simple image classification model with deepneural networks (DNN)
