ACENET workshop: Foundations of machine learning

Are you curious about machine learning but unsure where to start or whether it's the right fit for you? Join ACENET for an introductory session that explores the fundamentals of machine learning and its applications. We鈥檒l break down key terminology鈥攎achine learning, deep learning, and neural networks鈥攕o you can confidently navigate the field. You'll learn about essential methods, from simple models like Linear Regression and Decision Trees for classification to more advanced techniques such as Support Vector Machines and Neural Networks鈥攖he foundation of Large Language Models.

ACENET workshop (Day 2): Big data analysis with Apache Spark

Apache Spark is an open-source software for large-scale data processing and analysis. Using Apache Spark and Python (PySpark), this workshop is aimed at analyzing data sets that are too large to be handled and processed by a single computer. In a hands-on format using PySpark, participants will learn to import data, and use functions to transform, reduce and compile the data. You will also learn how to produce parallel algorithms that can run on the national clusters.
