• 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.

• Visualizations in Julia Using Plots.jl
• Plotting Options Using Julia

Plots.jl is the most widely used plotting library for the Julia programming language. It's known for being especially powerful in its versatility and intuitiveness. It's limited set of dependencies and wide applicability across different graphics packages make it especially helpful in visualizing the results of your latest Julia implementation. However, there are still multiple options available for Julia programmers to visualize their datasets. The second link details a comparison against a variety of Julia packages.

• thrust_ex.txt

Some examples for writing Thrust code. To compile, download the CUDA compiler from NVIDIA. This code was tested with CUDA 9.2 but is likely compatible with other versions. Before compiling change extension from thrust_ex.txt to thrust_ex.cu. Any code on the device (GPU) that is run through a Thrust transform is automatically parallelized on the GPU. Host (CPU) code will not be. Thrust code can also be compiled to run on a CPU for practice.

• Big Data Research at the University of Colorado Boulder

Background: Big data, defined as having high volume, complexity or velocity, have the potential to greatly accelerate research discovery. Such data can be challenging to work with and require research support and training to address technical and ethical challenges surrounding big data collection, analysis, and publication. Methods: The present study was conducted via a series of semi-structured interviews to assess big data methodologies employed by CU Boulder researchers across a broad sample of disciplines, with the goal of illuminating how they conduct their research; identifying challenges and needs; and providing recommendations for addressing them. Findings: Key results and conclusions from the study indicate: gaps in awareness of existing big data services provided by CU Boulder; open questions surrounding big data ethics, security and privacy issues; a need for clarity on how to attribute credit for big data research; and a preference for a variety of training options to support big data research.

• Python Tools for Data Science

Python has become a very popular programming language and software ecosystem for work in Data Science, integrating support for data access, data processing, modeling, machine learning, and visualization. In this webinar, we will describe some of the key Python packages that have been developed to support that work, and highlight some of their capabilities. This webinar will also serve as an introduction and overview of topics addressed in two Cornell Virtual Workshop tutorials, available at https://cvw.cac.cornell.edu/pydatasci1 and https://cvw.cac.cornell.edu/pydatasci2
