Summary

You are cordially invited to attend a training course spanning of 3 weeks. This training will introduce and demonstrate you to the characteristics of time series data, its different analyses, and Virtual Desktop in the UBDA HPC (High Performance Computing) platform. During the three weeks, the course includes UBDA HPC services, the pre-processing and feature extraction of time series data, the pre-trained models in ONNX and TF Hub, examples of classification models on time series data, introduction of the two classical forecasting methods (exponential smoothing and ARIMA), comparison the forecasting performance of these two methods with DL methods and discussion of how to use well-known data sets such as Heng Seng index, and Dow Jones index to conduct forecasting analysis. Participants are expected to have basic knowledge of Python. Please find the arrangements below.
