Scientifically Oriented Programming of Modern Hardware

Dear colleagues,

A mini course entitled “Scientifically Oriented Programming of Modern Hardware” will be hosted by ATOMKI. The lectures are based on the similarly named course—now entering its 10th year—at Eötvös University, Budapest, by Dániel Berényi, where the goal is to let scientists and developers familiarize themselves deeper with the capabilities and efficient usage of modern computing devices.

Title: Discovering physics in the 2024 Nobel prize for physics

Abstract: For many, it came as a surprise that the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to a pair of researchers who were not known to physics but were instead champions of other, albeit interdisciplinary, fields: computational neuroscience and machine learning. In this talk I will attempt to merge my expertise in these two fields and my background in physics to highlight the critical contributions the awardees made through the application of the tool set of statistical physics. I intend to explain how the humble Ising model penetrated to research in memory, driving neuroscience experiments in rodents, and how it is reimagined to form the basis of a major field in machine learning, unsupervised learning.

HUN-REN Generatív MI alapozó képzés

Tájékoztatás: A kurzus betelt! Lesz következő alkalom meghirdetve, az időpntról fogunk tájékoztatást küldeni.

Kedves Kollégák!

A mesterséges intelligencia gyorsan fejlődő területén a generatív MI eszközök óriási potenciált mutatnak és alapvetően befolyásolják a tudományos munkát is: lehet velük tartalmat keresni, szöveget íratni vagy újraírni, sőt akár egyszerűbb adatokat is elemeztetni.
