Training Course: From Machine Learning to Deep Learning - A concise introduction
|
This HLRS course offers an introduction to Machine and Deep Learning for students, data scientists, and researchers seeking practical solutions to future challenges. Covering basic Machine Learning methods with Apache Spark, it progresses to supervised Deep Learning using real data for image classification. The course also explores effective data processing through an introduction to data compression using the BigWhoop library. Hands-on sessions on HLRS clusters and Jupyter Notebooks enhance learning, with a guest lecture on applying Deep Learning to computational fluid dynamics. Please note that this is not a theoretical AI lecture series but focuses on practical applications.
|
4th Baltic HPC and Cloud Conference
|
The conference will feature a lot of new topics, including talks on innovative uses of HPC and Cloud computing and presentations about HPC/Cloud computing services ranging from EuroHPC supercomputers to Quantum Computing. The conference will be especially relevant for different research communities that use HPC, including students, HPC experts, and industry. EXCELLERAT P2 will be presented in the CoE pitch session.
|
Austrian-Slovenian HPC Meeting
|
The ASHPC24 focuses on various aspects of HPC and provides a great opportunity to discuss HPC-related topics and present your latest results. It will also provide an overview and update on the rapidly improving HPC landscape available to European researchers. EXCELLERAT P2 will be represented with a presentation and a poster.

Self-paced course: Approaches to analysing time-series data
|
|
Tourist destination managers, service providers, and researchers want to better understand traffic flows: what impact traffic flows have, when do traffic peaks occur, what are the seasonal effects, which areas are more / less congested with tourists, how do weather, holidays and other events affect this behaviour. With the help of data analysis and forecasts, they can prepare for periods of increased visitors, as well as adjust marketing activities, service offerings, or resource allocations. In this tutorial we look at a real-world dataset consisting of traffic counters on Slovenian roads, provided by the Slovenian Road Network (DARS), and its application to the questions above. Get access to the tutorial through our Service Portal.
