In this session, Prof. Álvarez will define a Gaussian process (GP) model and describe how it is used to tackle (non-linear) regression problems including defining the kernel function, the key function that defines the Gaussian process.

In this session, we will work on a data visualization makeover exercise. We will start with a plot that would benefit from a thorough makeover and update it, step-by-step, using the ggplot2 package in R as well as a few other packages that play nicely with ggplot2.
In silico drug discovery approaches are becoming popular and cost-effective ways of identifying novel therapeutic candidates. In this vLE we will demonstrate how to use deep learning to predict drug-protein interactions.
In this session, you will learn how to participate in a Kaggle competition. Kaggle is an online community of data scientists and machine learning practitioners that frequently holds public competitions.
The convolutional neural network (CNN) represents the current state-of-the-art for image and video analysis, and is increasingly used for analyzing time series and other data with spatial or sequential
The basic concepts of machine learning are introduced with a focus on intuition and examples. The simpler and widely used logistic regression model is introduced first, and from this, multilayered neural network are introduced as a generalization.
In this one-hour virtual learning experience, 4 teams of Duke investigators will discuss their proposal concepts with data science experts.
