Events spring and summer 2021
June 18 | Workshop - Image analysis beyond borders
Workshop - Image analysis beyond borders
A workshop about both resources for imaging and analysis, but also for science cases. Stay for the virtual theme session, bring your own questions up for discussion, display a digital poster, or just mingle and hang around in the virtual meeting space REMO where you can listen to discussions around different tables and view posters.
Organized by HALOS-QIM-CIPA-CSSB!

June | Mondays with MATLAB - Using MATLAB in an HPC environment
A three series workshop on parallel computing, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning using large compute resources.
With MATLAB and the MATLAB Parallel Server, researchers can use the familiar MATLAB environment to run computationally intensive MATLAB programs efficiently on computer clusters. This event will introduce participants who are familiar with the MATLAB environment to the MATLAB Parallel Server and show how to run batch jobs, parallel computations, and provide insights into the caveats in running in a cluster environment. The event will also show how to use the built-in capabilities for Machine Learning in MATLAB using the MATLAB Parallel Server and how to do deep learning with MATLAB using modern GPUs on a cluster computer through the MATLAB Parallel Server.
The seminars will be given from 9.00 to 17.00 on three consecutive Mondays in June 2021

November 18 | 13:00 - 17:00| Workshop on vibrational spectroscopic imaging and analysis
CIPA invites researchers in Lund and elsewhere to a virtual workshop on spectroscopic techniques and tools, with primary focus on 2D imaging of complex biological/chemical materials.
Infrared, Raman and optical photothermal infrared spectroscopy will be described for researchers curious about using these techniques at facilities in Lund or elsewhere. Challenges of data processing and analysis will be discussed, with examples of suitable methods and software packages. Users of X-ray spectroscopy are also welcome,especially when applications are complementary to vibrational spectroscopy methods.
Participants will be asked to present how they are currently using spectroscopic imaging methods, and/or describe problems which they plan/wish to address with these methods.
