• Leveraging AI in Generative Assets and Environments for Play

In this presentation, I will explore the recent advancements in AI-driven production of 3D-generative assets and environments, particularly focusing on their application in creating immersive, playful experiences. Platforms such as ChatGPT, Suno, and Speechify have ushered in a new era of digital creativity, facilitating the development of environments that not only entertain but also serve educational purposes. This session will delve into how these technologies are integrated into academic settings, specifically through a case study of the English Department's Digital Media Lab, known as Tech/Tech, which opened in 2022.

This workshop series introduces the essential concepts in deep learning and walks through the common steps in a deep learning workflow from data loading and preprocessing to training and model evaluation. Throughout the sessions, students participate in writing and executing simple deep learning programs using Pytorch – a popular Python library for developing, training, and deploying deep learning models.

• Neurostars

A question and answer forum for neuroscience researchers, infrastructure providers and software developers.

• Scikit-learn

Scikit-learn is free software machine learning library for Python. It has a variety of features you can use on data, from linear regression classifiers to xg-boost and random forests. It is very useful when you want to analyze small parts of data quickly.

• FreeSurfer Tutorials

The official MGH / Harvard tutorial page for FreeSurfer. The FreeSurfer group has provided and designed a series of tutorials for using FreeSurfer and for getting acquainted with the concepts needed to perform its various modes of analysis and processing of MRI data. The tutorials are designed to be followed along in a terminal window where commands can be copy/pasted instead of typed.

• astropy

Astropy is a community-driven package that offers core functionalities needed for astrophysical computations and data analysis. From coordinate transformations to time and date handling, unit conversions, and cosmological calculations, Astropy ensures that astronomers can focus on their research without getting bogged down by the intricacies of programming. This guide walks you through practical usage of astropy from CCD data reduction to computing galactic orbits of stars.

• FSL Courses

This is the official University of Oxford FSL group lecture page. This includes information on upcoming and past courses (online and in-person), as well as lecture materials. Available lecture materials includes slides and recordings on using FSL, MR physics, and applications of imaging data.

• Astroml webpage
• Examples
• Interactive notebooks

Machine learning is becoming increasingly important in field with large data such as astrophysics. AstroML is a Python module for machine learning and data mining built on numpy, scipy, scikit-learn, matplotlib, and astropy allowing for a range of statistical and machine learning routines to analyze astronomical data in Python. In particular, it has loaders for many open astronomical datasets with examples on how to visualize such complicated and large datasets.

• Why 'N How: Martinos

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.

• Docs

MediaPipe is Google's open-source framework for building multimodal (e.g., video, audio, etc.) machine learning pipelines. It is highly efficient and versatile, making it perfect for tasks like gesture recognition. This is a tutorial on how to make a custom model for gesture recognition tasks based on the Google MediaPipe API. This tutorial is specifically for video-playback, though could be generalized to image and live-video feed recognition.

• Handwritten Digits PyTorch

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.

• NITRC

The Neuroimaging Tools and Resources Collaboratory (NITRC) is a neuroimaging informatics knowledge environment for MR, PET/SPECT, CT, EEG/MEG, optical imaging, clinical neuroinformatics, imaging genomics, and computational neuroscience tools and resources.

• Representation Learning in Deep Learning

Representation learning is a fundamental concept in machine learning and artificial intelligence, particularly in the field of deep learning. At its core, representation learning involves the process of transforming raw data into a form that is more suitable for a specific task or learning objective. This transformation aims to extract meaningful and informative features or representations from the data, which can then be used for various tasks like classification, clustering, regression, and more.
