A guide to pip in Python
0
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.

A visual introduction to Gaussian Belief Propagation
0
This website is an interactive introduction to Gaussian Belief Propagation (GBP). A probabilistic inference algorithm that operates by passing messages between the nodes of arbitrarily structured factor graphs. A special case of loopy belief propagation, GBP updates rely only on local information and will converge independently of the message schedule. The key argument is that, given recent trends in computing hardware, GBP has the right computational properties to act as a scalable distributed probabilistic inference framework for future machine learning systems.

Why 'N How: Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging:
0
The Why & How seminar series is designed to introduce research assistants, graduate students, and postdoctoral and clinical fellows – really, anyone who is interested – to the many tools used in medical imaging. These include software tools and most of the major imaging modalities wielded by investigators (MRI, PET, EEG, MEG, optical, TMS and others). As the name of the series suggests, the talks cover both the reasons researchers might need a particular tool and the nuts and bolts of how to apply it. You can watch videos of the overviews below.
Regulated Research Community of Practice
0
The daily news clearly shows the increasing threat to safety and privacy of data, personal as well as intellectual property. While the requirements such as DFARS 7012, HIPAA, and Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) improve the consistency of data handling between agencies and contractors and grantees, it leaves academic institutions to figure out how to meet such requirements in a cost-effective way that fits the research and education mission of the institution. Most institutions, agencies, and companies act in isolation with one-off contract language to address data security and safeguarding concerns. Even though cybersecurity has a clear and uniform goal of protecting data, a onesize solution does not fit all academic institutions.
By supporting this community with development of a community strategic roadmap, regular discussions and workshops, and a repository of generalized and specific resources for handling regulated research programs RRCoP lowers the barrier to entry for institutions handling new regulations.
