DESCRIPTION:Would you like to learn high-performance cutting-edge deep lear
 ning techniques?\n\nOur online course on high-performance machine learning
  provides the necessary skills to train neural networks and extract the mo
 st relevant information from datasets. During our hands-on sessions you wi
 ll have the opportunity to work on our high-performance systems with diffe
 rent types of data\, and learn how to tune your model to obtain optimal re
 sults in the most efficient way. The high-performance machine learning tea
 m at SURFsara will guide you online during the presentations and exercises
  and indicate how to start applying machine learning to your projects.\n\n
 What?\n\nIn this course you will:\n\n- Understand the fundamental theories
  of machine learning and the intuitions/ideas behind the algorithms\n\n- W
 ork with a high-level machine learning API (Keras)\n\n- Explore hyperparam
 eter space to improve a neural network\n\n- Understand the pitfalls of cla
 ssic machine learning algorithms\n\n- Upscale large machine learning model
 s with parallel training on a supercomputer\n\nWho?\n\n- Everyone interest
 ed in getting familiar with machine learning at scale\, from the beginning
  up to more advanced topics\n\nRequirements:\n\n- Basic knowledge on stati
 stics\n\n- Basic knowledge on general programming. Some experience with Py
 thon and the use of Jupyter Notebooks is desirable.\n\n- Basic knowledge o
 n parallel computing. No specific experience with supercomputing systems i
 s necessary.\n\nYou should have:\n\n- Your own laptop with an up-to-date b
 rowser and a terminal emulator. The use of the operating systems Linux and
  macOS is preferred\, but not mandatory. For Windows users we recommend to
  download MobaXterm (portable version) as terminal emulator.\n\n \n\nIMPO
 RTANT INFORMATION: WAITING LIST\n\nIf the course gets fully booked\, no mo
 re registrations are accepted through this website. However\, you can be i
 ncluded in the waiting list: for that\, please send an email to training@s
 urfsara.nl and you'll be informed when a place becomes available.\nhttps:/
