From hall at egr.msu.edu Wed Feb 8 10:15:43 2012 From: hall at egr.msu.edu (Fred Hall) Date: Wed, 08 Feb 2012 10:15:43 -0500 Subject: [Matlab-user] MATLAB Technical Seminars at MSU Message-ID: <4F32919F.9090006@egr.msu.edu> *MathWorks Technical Seminars:* Please join MathWorks for free MATLAB seminars on Wednesday, February 15, 2012. Faculty, staff and students are all welcome to attend one or both sessions. *--Register now--* Register at www.mathworks.com/seminars/msu2012 *9:30 a.m. -- 12:00 p.m.* *Session 1: Parallel Computing with MATLAB* *Location: Brody Hall, Room 136* ** In this session you will learn how to solve computationally and data-intensive problems using multicore processors, GPUs, and computer clusters. We will introduce you to high-level programming constructs that allow you to parallelize MATLAB applications and run them on multiple processors. We will show you how to overcome the memory limits of your desktop computer by distributing your data on a large scale computing resource, such as a cluster. We will also demonstrate how to take advantage of GPUs to speed up computations without low-level programming. Highlights include: ?Toolboxes with built-in support for parallel computing ?Creating parallel applications to speed up independent tasks ?Programming with distributed arrays to work with large data sets ?Scaling up to computer clusters, grid environments or clouds ?Employing GPUs to speed up your computations ** *1:30 p.m. -- 4:00 p.m.* *Medical Image Processing with MATLAB * *Location: Natural Sciences Building, Room 116* ** This seminar will be particularly valuable for anyone intending to use MATLAB to process, analyze and visualize medical images and video. We will begin by showing you how to import, display and examine images in MATLAB. We will then step you through series of examples designed to demonstrate how MATLAB can be used in a wide range of medical applications to explore ideas and automate your workflow. Highlights include: ?Quantification of tissue metastasis including workflow automation ?Volume visualization from a brain MRI image stack ?Measurement of vessel tortuosity ?Video analysis and neural network-classification of a fluorescein angiogram ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please forward this invitation to any colleagues who may be interested in this event. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope you can join us.
