Documentation and presentation on how to use machine learning and deep learning framework using TensorFlow, Keras and sci-kit learn for Climate and Ocean Advances

It's not uncommon to see beautiful visualizations in HPC center galleries, but the majority of these are either rendered off the HPC or created using programs that run on OpenGL or custom rasterization techniques. To put it simply the next generation of graphics provided by OpenGL's successor Vulkan is strangely absent in the super computing world. The aim of this survey of available resources is to determine the systems that can support Vulkan workflows and programs. This will assist users in getting past some of the first hurdles in using Vulkan in HPC contexts.

The official documentation for PyTorch, a machine learning tensor-based framework, and NumPy, which allows for support for ndarrays which is useful to make tensors when implementing NNs. Both libraries can be installed with pip.

The Open Storage Network, a national resource available through the XSEDE resource allocation system, is high quality, sustainable, distributed storage cloud for the research community.

Pandas is one of the most essential Python libraries for data analysis and manipulation. It provides high-performance, easy-to-use data structures, and data analysis tools for the Python programming language. The official documentation serves as an in-depth guide to using this powerful tool including explanations and examples.

Learn how to use Rclone to transfer data, specifically from your local drive to the Open Storage Network, vice versa.

Making a neural network has never been easier! The following link directs users to the Flux.jl package, the easiest way of programming a neural network using the Julia programming language. Julia is the fastest growing software language for AI/ML and this package provides a faster alternative to Python's TensorFlow and PyTorch with a 100% Julia native programming and GPU support.

The tutorial is intended to provide a brief overview of the extensive and broad topic of Parallel Computing. It covers the basics of parallel computing, and is intended for someone who is just becoming acquainted with the subject .

The CyberAmbassadors project was funded through a workforce development grant from the National Science Foundation (Award #1730137). Starting in 2017, the initial focus of this project was to develop, test, and refine new curriculum to help CyberInfrastructure (CI) Professionals strengthen their communications, teamwork and leadership skills. With support and collaboration from a number of academic and professional organizations, the CyberAmbassadors project was expanded to offer professional skills training to college students and professionals working across STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) disciplines.

Raftlib is an open-source C++ Library that provides a framework for implementing parallel and concurrent data processing pipelines. It is designed to simplify the development of high-performance data processing applications by abstracting away the complexities of parallelism, concurrency, and data flow management. It enables stream/data-flow parallel computation by linking parallel compute kernels together using simple right shift operators, similar to C++ streams for string manipulation. RaftLib eliminates the need for explicit usage of traditional threading libraries such as pthreads, std::thread, or OpenMP, which can lead to non-deterministic behavior when misused.

Fastai offers many tools to people working with machine learning and artifical intelligence including tutorials on PyTorch in addition to their own library built on PyTorch, news articles, and other resources to dive into this realm.

A question and answer forum for neuroscience researchers, infrastructure providers and software developers.

Numpy is a python package that leverages types and compiled C code to make many math operations in Python efficient. It is especially useful for matrix manipulation and operations.

This website is an interactive introduction to Gaussian Belief Propagation (GBP). A probabilistic inference algorithm that operates by passing messages between the nodes of arbitrarily structured factor graphs. A special case of loopy belief propagation, GBP updates rely only on local information and will converge independently of the message schedule. The key argument is that, given recent trends in computing hardware, GBP has the right computational properties to act as a scalable distributed probabilistic inference framework for future machine learning systems.

Bioinformatics Toolbox provides algorithms and apps for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), microarray analysis, mass spectrometry, and gene ontology. Using toolbox functions, you can read genomic and proteomic data from standard file formats such as SAM, FASTA, CEL, and CDF, as well as from online databases such as the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus and GenBank.

Data augmentation is a crucial step in the pipeline for image classification with deep learning. Albumentations is an extremely versatile Python library that can be used to easily augment images. Transformations include rotations, flips, downscaling, distortions, blurs, and many more. Citation: Buslaev A, Iglovikov VI, Khvedchenya E, Parinov A, Druzhinin M, Kalinin AA. Albumentations: Fast and Flexible Image Augmentations. Information. 2020; 11(2):125. https://doi.org/10.3390/info11020125

Spack is a package manager for supercomputers that can help administrators install scientific software and libraries for multiple complex software stacks.

In this tutorial, I present an overview with many examples of the use of Numpy and Pandas for data analysis. Beginners in the field of data analysis can find It incredibly helpful, and at the same time, anyone who already has experience in data analysis and needs a refresher can find value in it. I discuss the use of Numpy for analyzing 1D and 2D multidimensional data and an introduction on using Pandas to manipulate CSV files.

NCSA is the home of Delta, a computing and data resource that balances cutting-edge graphics processor and CPU architectures with a non-POSIX file system with a POSIX-like interface. Delta allows applications to reap the benefits of modern file systems without rewriting code.
