The APPM+CS postdoc seminar changes format and becomes a tutorial/workshop on topics that may be useful for postdocs, students, and faculties across different disciplines. 

The first workshop will be on Dimensionality Reduction. Sophie Giffard from the Computer Science Department will give a brief overview on dimensionality reduction techniques that are useful to compress,  explain, pre-process and interpret any data. A hands-on exercise with Python and scikit-learn will be the second part of the tutorial. The workshop material can be found at:
https://github.com/sophiegif/Workshop_dimensionality_reduction .
Attendees are encouraged to download or clone the repository before coming, and install python3 with numpy, scikitlearn and pandas libraries on their machine.

Light refreshments will be served!
