SUMMARY:AI in Practice Summer Institute
DESCRIPTION:The eScience Institute of the University of Washington is offer
 ing a hands-on 5-day training in AI methods for research\, facilitated pro
 ject work\, and self-directed learning. Our event is designed for research
 ers looking to move beyond textbook examples and tackle the challenges of 
 real-world applications.\n\nOn day one\, we offer a full day of tutorials 
 on AI foundations\, during which participants will learn the fundamentals 
 of training and evaluating deep neural networks for various applications s
 uch as vision\, language\, and others. Participants will learn more advanc
 ed topics in the following days such as foundation models and scaling work
 flows. They will also work on a project of their choice to explore differe
 nt phases of the AI research lifecycle\, from problem formulation and mode
 l selection to communication of results and responsible use.\n\nEvent Deta
 ils\n\nWhen: Mon–Fri\, July 27th-31st\, 9:00 am–5:00 pm each day\n\nWh
 ere: MSDS Space - Seminar Room (In Person / No Online option)\n\nWho shoul
 d apply: Open to participants from any discipline. Aimed at researchers in
 terested in applying AI methods in their work\, i.e.\, PhD students\, post
 docs\, research faculty and staff\, and master's or undergraduate students
  who are already involved in research.\n\nRegistration: Event cost tiers: 
 UW Student: $30\, UW Postdoc: $50\, UW Staff/Faculty: $100\, Non-UW: $200.
  Registration is limited\, with preference given to UW students\, postdocs
 \, staff\, and faculty. \n\nPrerequisites: Programming experience in a sc
 ripting language such as Python or R. Familiarity with one or more machine
  learning approaches\, such as logistic regression or random forests. Visi
 t our FAQ page for more information about prerequisites. \n\nMore Informa
 tion: Event website\, including the agenda.\n\nApply now: Our application
