learning cybersecurity is crucial for personal protection, safeguarding digital assets, financial security, and national security. It is important when it comes to consumer data protection for business, creating long lasting relationships with customers.

Cybersecurity Guide is a comprehensive resource for students and early career professionals that provides users with a wide range of resources and up-to-date information on cybersecurity, including cybersecurity degree programs and bootcamps, career guides, as well as online courses and training opportunities. Additionally, it covers trends, best practices, and much more.

This is a self guided online course on compilers. The topics covered throughout the course include universal compilers topics like intermediate representations, data flow, and “classic” optimizations as well as more research focusedtopics such as parallelization, just-in-time compilation, and garbage collection.

This workshop has an introduction to the concepts of visualization followed by hands on exercises. The concepts section has Speaker Notes, and the hands on section has an accompanying Jupyter notebook. The workshop is one in a series of Introduction to HPC

CS244N is a renowned natural language processing course offered by Stanford University and taught by Christopher Manning. It covers a wide range of topics in NLP, including language modeling, machine translation, sentiment analysis, and more. It teaches both foundational concepts and cutting-edge research to gain a comprehensive understanding of NLP techniques and applications.

With the recent uprising of LLM's many business are looking at way to adopt these LLMs and fine-tuning these models on specfic data sets to ensure accuracy. These models when fine-tuned can be optimal for fulfilling the specific needs of a company. This site explains explicitly when, how, and why models should be trained. It goes over various strategies for LLM fine -tuning.

This webinar series is an orientation to R. We start with an overview of R’s history and place in the larger data science ecosystem. Next, we introduce the R Studio user interface and how to access R’s excellent documentation. Finally, we present the fundamental concepts you need to use the R environment and language for data analysis. Along the way, we compare R script files (.R) to R Notebook (.Rmd) files and show how the features of R Notebook support better communication and encourage more dynamic engagement with statistical analysis and code. It is helpful to be familiar with tabular data analysis using statistical software, database tools, or spreadsheet programs. Workshop materials, including setup directions and slides are available at https://github.com/CornellCAC/r_for_edu/ The Rstudio Cloud project used in the workshop is https://rstudio.cloud/project/4044219.
