UCF Research Computing & Data WorkshopsCitation metrics provides useful quantitative data regarding the impact of a scholar's research. Learning how to maximize your reach using tools like Web of Science, Google Metrics, ORCID, ResearchGate, and Academia.edu (https://academia.edu) among others, doesn't have to be as daunting of a task as it first appears. This session will cover information on how to evaluate citation metrics as well …
UCF Research Computing & Data WorkshopsLearn how you can analyze and model data using interactive tools in MATLAB. Through live demonstrations and examples, you will see how you can solve many steps in a data analysis workflow without writing any code yourself. The interactive tools can then generate the MATLAB code you need to programmatically reproduce your work. This session is targeted for those who …
UCF Research Computing & Data WorkshopsThe goal of this lesson is to teach new programmers to write modular code to perform a data analysis. R is used to teach these skills because it is a commonly used programming language in many scientific disciplines. However, the emphasis is not on teaching every aspect of R, but instead on language agnostic principles like automation with loops and …
UCF Research Computing & Data WorkshopsIn this workshop, participants will leverage national compute resources within the NSF-funded ACCESS ecosystem to run simple machine learning experiments and familiarize themselves with Pytorch. Designed as a concise introduction to the use of Pytorch, the presenter will share their experience using Pytorch for research. Topics we will cover include environment setup, various machine learning pipelines, loading pretrained models, and …
