SUMMARY:Decomposing and Visualizing Interactions in R
DESCRIPTION:In regression\, we are often interested in an interaction\, which is the modification or moderation of the effect of an independent variable by another. Understanding interactions involves interpreting the regression coefficients\, estimating and testing simple effects and their differences\, and visualizing the interaction. This workshop will teach you how to do all of these thing in R using base R\, as well as the emmeans and ggplot2 packages. Some prior knowledge of linear regression and experience with R is recommended but not necessary. \nAny questions about this workshop can be emailed to Andy Lin at alin@oarc.ucla.edu. \nPresented by the Office of Advanced Research Computing (OARC). \nRegister here: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwkfumspzsqHtKbf6iQV7U-xADsn3h3BhT1

SUMMARY:Getting Started with Registered Reports
DESCRIPTION: Click here for to watch the recording \nRegistered reports are a new publication mechanism where researchers submit a research proposal to a journal that is peer-reviewed\, and upon acceptance\, the journal agrees to publish the results of the study regardless of the outcome. Registered reports help address key issues which have resulted in replication crises in multiple academic fields\, such as publication bias and p-hacking. In this workshop\, you will learn how to publish registered reports\, the value of registered reports\, how registered reports align with incentives for researchers\, and how registered reports can interface with broader research systems (e.g.\, labs and trainees). \nAfter this workshop\, attendees will be able to… \n\nDefine a registered report and describe its component parts\nSummarize the differences between registered reports and traditional published research\nCompare and contrast the relative barriers and benefits of registered reports and traditional publications.\nIdentify and evaluate journals or other publishing mechanisms (e.g.\, PCI-RR) within their field which publish registered reports\nGenerate a Stage 1 registered report proposal for their own research project\n\nPresenters: Dr. Amanda Kay Montoya is a Quantitative Methodologist in the Department of Psychology at UCLA. Dr. William Krenzer is a Scientific Integrity Associate at Duke University. Drs. Montoya and Krenzer are funded by NSF to research the adoption and impact of registered reports in scientific practice. The team has experience submitting and publishing multiple registered reports\, as well as extensive experience with researchers considering and implementing registered reports and developing tools to improve the ease with which researchers can conduct registered reports.

SUMMARY:Urban biodiversity: the importance of scale
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Nannan Gao\, Ph.D.\nIDRE Fellow\nDepartment of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\nUniversity of California Los Angeles \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation: Virtual via zoom\n \nRegistration Link: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0sdeGgqj0pHNzapieckX5w-dQAFTDr3d5D \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: While much is known about the scaling of biodiversity\, less is known about specifically how biodiversity scales in urban areas. This is an important question because over two-thirds of humans live in urban areas. Understanding how\, precisely\, biodiversity scales in urban areas will inform management. Linear relationships would imply that similar interventions should work across the range of city sizes (from small towns to the largest mega-cities) whereas non-linear relationships would imply that biodiversity strategies must be tailored to the size of the city. We focused on avian biodiversity because more than half of the species are found in urban areas (6120 species out of 11\,162 species)\, including at least 350 threatened ones. We calculated species richness in 2\,568 cities and used eBird\, a community science platform\, to estimate species richness. After controlling for a variety of variables that might explain variation in avian biodiversity\, we found a non-linear relationship in cities and contrasted this to a well-established power law found in natural areas. After controlling for other key variables that might explain variation in urban biodiversity\, the log-log relationship between city area and avian biodiversity had a slope of 0.42 until cities got bigger than 331 km2\, beyond which it decreased to 0.15. This suggests that unique processes affect urban biodiversity in smaller and larger cities. When we focused on the subset of threatened species\, we found a linear relationship with a slope of 0.20. Urbanization not only contributes to a global extinction\, but urban areas may provide important habitat for threatened species. \nAbout Speaker: Dr. Nannan Gao is a Postdoctoral associate with Daniel T. Blumstein in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at UCLA. Her research mainly focuses on studying the relationship between urban biodiversity and city size by creating global urban biodiversity datasets that include small towns to megacities involving spatiotemporal advanced computing\, statistical computing and data science. Dr. Gao received her PhD in Chinese Academy of Science\, also studied human geography and urban planning in Peking University. She seeks to balance humans and animals in urban areas.

SUMMARY:Containers for HPC
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will go over how to use container on HPC resources. Containers are a great way to run scientific software on various HPC platforms. Users can create a ‘virtual’ OS to easily install any application and transfer it to any system with container software. This workshop will cover how to build and use containers to run on HPC resources. We will use many examples of scientific software\, such as\, Nwchem\, R and Rstudio\, Python and Jupyter\, etc. We will work on UCLA’s HPC resource\, Hoffman2 (H2). H2 has the container software\, Apptainer (formerly Singularity) where researchers can run containerize applications. To follow along with the instructor\, a Hoffman2 account will be needed. Also\, it is suggested to have apptainer/singularity on a machine you have admin access (a few examples will also use Docker on these machines as well). \nAny questions about this workshop can be emailed to Charles Peterson at cpeterson@oarc.ucla.edu. \nPresented by the Office of Advanced Research Computing. \nRegister here: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIkdOCgrz8vGdIpFATJd2i1Hj59P-Z0B6Kv

SUMMARY:Docker software platform: Fundamentals
DESCRIPTION:Built on a hypersivor of host operation system\, virtual machine (VM) offers an isolated virtual environment providing functionality needed to execute guest operation systems (OS) and applications. However\, VMs usually require heavy computer resources to execute OS and programs. Alternatively\, an advanced technique so-called containerization has been developed in the recent years for many applications. Containerization provides a mechanism where software/applications can be abstracted from the environment they originally run. These two workshops will introduce the basic concepts and usage of Docker containerization\, including its four major components: image\, container\, data volume\, and network. We will also discuss how to write the Dockerfile and run your applications from local computer to cloud services. \nAny questions about this workshop can be emailed to Jerry Huang at hyhuang@oarc.ucla.edu. \nPresented by the Office of Advanced Research Computing. \nRegister here: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMpdOqvrD0sGNIIw_wTsM4LxBTVNEm6B8w-

SUMMARY:Python for High Performance Data Analytics (1) Computation
DESCRIPTION:While Python becomes the most popular programming language since 2019\, data scientists often have a few common complaints about its slow speed and the limited capabilities of handling the big data scenarios. In this workshop series\, we will present an extensive discussion on how to improve the performance of Python in data science by looking under the hood of its language/libraries and using the technologies to make Python a practical solution for high-performance big data analytics. In the first session\, we will focus on how to boost the speed of python code in an interperter level by explaining the concepts (e.g.\, GIL\, GIT) and introducing the packages of pypy\, numba\, pythran\, cython etc. Although no specific prerequisite is required to attend the talk\, having programming experience in Python will be helpful to fully understand the lecture content. \nAny questions about this workshop can be emailed to Qiyang Hu at huqy@oarc.ucla.edu. \nPresented by the Office of Advanced Research Computing. \nRegister here: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwodOippjwuGdMj5txxEM7lrAqfe1YdaAyf

SUMMARY:Stability and Resolvent Analysis of Fluid Flows - Methods and Challenges
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Victoria Rolandi\, Ph.D.\nIDRE Fellow\nMechanical and Aerospace Department\nUniversity of California Los Angeles \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation: Virtual via Zoom\n \nRecording available at: https://youtu.be/m9MTRk0ggrk \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: Understanding the transition of fluid flows has been and still is a crucial focus in fluid dynamics. Stability theory has greatly helped on this side and has opened the door to other branches in fluid dynamics\, such as flow control. By leveraging insights on flow transition\, flow control technology can help mitigate the human impact of environmental and noise pollution caused by fluid-based systems such as aircraft\, automobiles\, and wind turbines\, all while improving their overall performance. \nFrom linear stability analysis to resolvent analysis\, this talk will cover some of the methods that enable such investigations and the limitations\, in terms of computational resources\, on applying them to turbulent flows. \nAbout Speaker: Dr. Rolandi obtained a BSc in Mathematical Engineering from Politecnico di Torino and an MSc in Computational Science and Engineering from Politecnico di Milano. She later completed a Ph.D. in Fluid Dynamics at the Institute Supérieure de l’Aéronautique et de l’Espace (ISAE-Supaero) before joining the Mechanical and Aerospace department at UCLA as a postdoctoral researcher at Professor Taira’s Lab. Her research at UCLA focuses on developing and implementing algorithms helpful in characterizing\, modeling\, and controlling turbulent flows.
