See preliminary schedule below.\n\nThough atte ndees are expected to have a general familiarity with brain imaging and co nventional statistical analyses\, the first two days introduce attendees t o the software environment that will serve for the practical exercises dur ing the workshop\, including some basics of the Linux command line (Bash)\ , Git\, the Python programming language\, and several Python-based package s for scientific computing\, courtesy of Calcul Québec.\n\nThe core conten t will be presented over the remaining days. The first speaker\, Dr. Tal Y arkoni (University of Texas at Austin) will discuss the scientific applica tions of machine learning in brain imaging. The second speaker\, Dr. Ella Gabitov (51Թ)\, will present on the explanatory power and li mitations of machine learning when applied to cognitive neuroscience. Thro ughout the workshop\, hands-on tutorials will be presented by Alexandre Hu tton (ORIGAMI\, McGill)\, which will focus on giving participants an under standing of core concepts and common practices in machine learning.\n\n\nP reliminary Schedule\n\nDay 1 (Monday)\n Group 1:\n 09:00 – 12:00 Calcul Québ ec – Introduction to Programming with Python\n Group 2:\n 09:00 - 10:00 Linu x command line: Bash.\n 10:00 - 11:00 ORIGAMI - Git & version control\n\nDa y 2 (Tuesday)\n Group 1:\n 09:00 - 10:00 Linux command line: Bash.\n 10:00 - 11:00 ORIGAMI - Git & version control\n Group 2:\n 09:00 – 12:00 Calcul Québ ec – Introduction to Programming with Python\n\nDay 3 (Wednesday)\n 09:00 – 10:30 Dr. Tal Yarkoni – “Machine Learning as Applied to Neuroimaging”\n 10 :30 – 12:30 Alexandre Hutton – Hands-on ML: dataset handling\, sklearn/nil earn\, estimators & models\, model evaluation\n 13:30 – 16:00 Practical exe rcises\n\nDay 4 (Thursday)\n 09:00 – 12:30 Alexandre Hutton – Hands-on ML: cross-validation\, ROC & AUC\, visualization\, evaluation metrics\n 13:30 – 16:00 Practical exercises\n\nDay 5 (Friday)\n 09:00 – 10:00 Dr. Ella Gabit ov – “The elephant in the room: to explain or to predict\, that is the que stion”\n 10:00 – 12:30 Alexandre Hutton – Hands-on ML: confounds. model int erpretation (and lack thereof)\n 13:30 – 16:30 Practical exercises\, data c linic\n DTSTART:20210118T140000Z DTEND:20210122T213000Z SUMMARY:Machine Learning for the Cognitive Neurosciences URL:/hbhl/channels/event/machine-learning-cognitive-ne urosciences-327397 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
