Solving differential equations with Physics-informed Neural Network
0
Differential equations, the backbone of countless physical phenomena, have traditionally been solved using numerical methods or analytical techniques. However, the advent of deep learning introduces an intriguing alternative: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). By leveraging the representational power of neural networks and integrating physical laws (like differential equations), PINNs offer a novel approach to solving complex problems. This guide walks through an implementation of a PINN to solve DEs such as the logistic equation.

ConnectCI
0
Connect.Cybinfrastructure is a family of portals, each representing a program that is serving a segment of the research computing and data community. Each portal provides program-specific information, as well a custom "view" into a common database. The portal was originally developed to support project workflows and a knowledge base of self service learning resources for the Northeast Cyberteam. Subsequently, it was expanded to provide support to multiple cyberteams and other research computing communities of practice. We welcome additional communities, please contact us if you are interested in participating. Central to the Portal is an extensive and ever-evolving tagging infrastructure which informs every aspect of the Portal. The tag taxonomy was initially developed by the Northeast Cyberteam to categorize subject matter relevant to practitioners of Research Computing Facilitation and is ever changing due to the frequent introduction of new technology in domains that characterize the field of research computing.
Globus Documentation

Info about retiring of R GIS packages rgdal, rgeos, maptools in 2023
0
R GIS packages "rgdal", "rgeos", and "maptools" are package set to be archived and no longer supported by end of 2023. Many other R GIS packages are build on top of these packages, including "sp" and "raster". The packages recommended as replacement for "sp" is "sf" and the replacement for "raster" is "terra". Below are links to published articles regarding this transition. Additionally, I am including links to the documentation for the new packages recommended to be used "sf" and "terra".
