DESCRIPTION:Description:\n\nThe increasing amount of scientific data being 
 collected through sensors or computational simulations may take advantage 
 of new analytics techniques for being processed in order to extract new me
 anings out of raw data. The purpose of this one-week school is to present 
 researches and scientists with methods\, tools and techniques for the mini
 ng\, analysis and visualization of large data sets using Cineca resources.
  This school is an introductory set of lectures aimed at training beginner
 s participants  in the application of relevant statistical and machine le
 arning algorithms to extract new insights from data\, in the adoption of d
 ata visualization techniques and tools to graph relevant information\, and
  in the proper use of Cineca resources to execute processing jobs. The sch
 ool will consist of introductory lectures held by guest data-analyst exper
 ts\, and hands-on sessions.\n\nTopics:\n\nData Mining\, Data Visualization
 .\n\nTarget Audience:\n\nYoung students\, PhD\, and researchers in computa
 tional sciences and scientific areas with different backgrounds\, looking 
 for new technologies and methods to process and analyse large amount of da
 ta.\n\nPrerequisites:\n\nParticipants must have basic knowledge in statist
 ics\, on the fundamentals of computer programming with python and in using
  GNU/Linux-based systems.\n\nGrant\nThe lunch for the five days will be of
 fered to all the participants and some grants are available. The only requ
 irement to be eligible is to be not funded by your institution to attend t
 he course and to work or live in an institute outside the Milan area. The 
 grant  will be 300 euros for students working and living outside Italy a
 nd 150 euros for students working and living in Italy. Some documentation 
 will be required and the grant will be paid only after a certified presenc
 e of minimum 80% of the lectures.\n\nFurther information about how to requ
 est the grant\, will be provided at the confirmation of the course: about 
 3 weeks before the starting date.\n\nThe number of participants is limited
  to 24 students. Applicants will be selected according to their experience
 \, qualification and scientific interest BASED ON WHAT WRITTEN IN THE "Rea
 son for participation" FIELD OF THE REGISTRATION FORM. \n\n\nThis edition
  will be held in English and non-Italian speaking students are welcome!\n\
