HPC Training Series - Course 7 "AI for Life Sciences, vol. 1: Deep Learning for Health and Life Sciences"

Europe/Athens
Description

EuroCC@Greece announces the 7th Course of its HPC Training Series with the subject "AI for Life Sciences, vol. 1: Deep Learning for Health and Life Sciences", taking place online on November 1st, 2024.  

Date: November 1st, 2024, at 10:00 EET 

Location: Online via Zoom

Presentation Language: Greek

Audience Suitable for students, researchers and engineers interested in understanding Machine Learning (ML) and in using ML-based classifiers in an AI pipeline that analyses medical images.

Description: This course provides an introduction to AI techniques based on Machine Learning, with application to life sciences. An overview of AI applications in the life sciences is followed by hands-on training in PyTorch. Participants will then explore real-world applications of AI and deep learning in healthcare imaging, particularly breast cancer classification from MRI images. This will be done via a tutorial provided by BIOEMTECH, who share their experience with using MONAI and PyRadiomics, two popular, widely-used open source tools specialised in medical imaging. Through practical demonstrations, participants will learn how to prepare, process, and analyse imaging data, with an opportunity for hands-on engagement using a sample dataset.

A prior knowledge of the basics of the Python language is beneficial for some parts of the course.

Prerequisites: Please note that a Google account is required to join the demo environment of this course.
