Paraview UArizona HPC links (beginner)
0
These links take you to visualization resources supported by the University of Arizona's HPC visualization consultant (rtdatavis.github.io). The following links are specific to the Paraview program and the workflows that have been used my researchers at the U of Arizona. Some of the pages linked are very beginner friendly: getting started, working with cameras and keyframes for rendering, visualizing external files (netcdf climate data), graphs and data exporting.
Many of the workflows involve using remote desktops via the Open On Demand interface, but if this isn't set up at your university you can use paraview locally on a desktop. Feel free to post on access ci https://ask.cyberinfrastructure.org/ if you need assistance getting a paraview gui open for your work on HPC.
Handwritten Digits Tutorial in PyTorch
0
This tutorial is essentially the "hello world" of image recognition and feed-forward neural network (using PyTorch). Using the MNIST database (filled within images of handwritten digits), the tutorial will instruct how to build a feed-forward neural network that can recognize handwritten digits. A solid understanding of feed-forward and back-propagation is recommended.
Probabilistic Semantic Data Association for Collaborative Human-Robot Sensing
0
Humans cannot always be treated as oracles for collaborative sensing. Robots thus need to maintain beliefs over unknown world states when receiving semantic data from humans, as well as account for possible discrepancies between human-provided data and these beliefs. To this end, this paper introduces the problem of semantic data association (SDA) in relation to conventional data association problems for sensor fusion. It then, develops a novel probabilistic semantic data association (PSDA) algorithm to rigorously address SDA in general settings. Simulations of a multi-object search task show that PSDA enables robust collaborative state estimation under a wide range of conditions.
Application Fundamentals (Android)
0
The provided text discusses various aspects of Android app development fundamentals. It covers key concepts related to app components, the AndroidManifest.xml file, and app resources. Android apps are built using various components, including Activities, Services, Broadcast Receivers, and Content Providers. These components serve different purposes and have distinct lifecycles. Activities are used for user interaction, services for background tasks, broadcast receivers for system-wide event handling, and content providers for managing shared data.The AndroidManifest.xml file is essential for declaring app components, permissions, and other settings. It informs the Android system about the app's components and capabilities. For instance, it specifies the minimum API level, declares hardware and software requirements, and defines intent filters to enable components to respond to specific actions.It's crucial to declare app requirements, such as device features and minimum Android API levels, to ensure compatibility with different devices and configurations. These declarations help in filtering the app's availability on Google Play for users with compatible devices.Android apps rely on resources separate from code, including images, layouts, strings, and more. These resources are stored in various directories and can be tailored for different device configurations. Providing alternative resources allows for optimization across different languages, screen sizes, orientations, and other factors.
Understanding these fundamentals is essential for developing Android applications effectively, ensuring compatibility, and providing a consistent user experience across a wide range of devices and configurations.

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.
What is VPN? How It Works, Types of VPN

A VPN, or Virtual Private Network, is a technology that creates a secure tunnel between your device and a VPN server. This tunnel encrypts all of your traffic, making it unreadable to anyone who tries to intercept it.
Regular Expressions
0
Regular expressions (sometimes referred to as RegEx) is an incredibly powerful tool that is used to define string patterns for "find" or "find and replace" operations on strings, or for input validation. Regular Expressions are used in search engines, in search and replace dialogs of word processors and text editors, and text-processing Linux utilities such as sed and awk. They are supported in many programming languages, including Python, R, Perl, Java, and others.

pip stands for "pip installs packages". It's the go-to package manager for Python, allowing developers to install, update, and manage software libraries and dependencies used in Python projects. With just a few commands in your terminal or command prompt, pip makes it effortless to fetch libraries from the Python Package Index (PyPI) and integrate them into your projects. This guide will walk you through the basics of pip, from installation to advanced package management.
R for Research Scientists
0
A book for researchers who contribute code to R projects: This booklet is the result of my work with the Social Cognition for Social Justice lab. It was developed in response to questions I was getting from students; both grad students that were making software design decisions, and undergraduates who were using things like version control for the first time. Although many tutorials and resources exist for these topics, there was not a single source that I thought covered just enough material to build up to the workflow used by the lab without extraneous detail.
