Machine Learning 102 - Image Analysis on NeSI

New Zealand eScience Infrastructure(NeSI) designs, builds, and operates a shared national platform of advanced computing resources and data services. All researchers in Aotearoa New Zealand have access to NeSI’s platforms. Through NeSI, researchers can access high-capacity CPUs, GPUs and high memory nodes; tailored software environments; expertise in research software and data science engineering; and skills training in computational  tools and approaches. NeSI enables researchers to investigate large, unique, or complex projects more easily, quickly, and accurately.  To learn more, get in touch: info@nesi.org.nz.

New Zealand eScience Infrastructure (NeSI)

This hands-on workshop will acquaint learners across Aotearoa New Zealand with Image Analysis on NeSI using Machine Learning (ML).

<p>In this three-hour, hands-on workshop, the NeSI team will introduce you to the basics of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for image processing, using the Tensorflow Python package. The team will work through building a simple neural network to classify images and reuse larger, pre-trained models to tackle more challenging tasks. Finally, you will convert your code into a non-interactive SLURM job to leverage GPU resources and get results faster and more efficiently.</p><h2>This is a hands-on, online event</h2><p>The workshop will address the following topics:</p><ul><li>Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)</li><li>Tensorflow</li><li> Image Analysis</li><li>Classification</li><li>Transfer Learning</li><li>SLURM</li><li>Other necessary details required to work on NeSI </li></ul><h2>Who is this event for</h2><p>To attend this workshop, you will need to be familiar with the Python language or be competent in another analytical language (C, Matlab, Julia, R) and know how to enter commands in a terminal to navigate between folders and run programs. You should be familiar with concepts of predictive models as well.
