Event Description
Efficiently dealing with large datasets is increasingly crucial to researchers in various fields from engineering and genomics to the social sciences and humanities. This hands-on workshop demonstrates how NVIDIA's RAPIDS suite can revolutionize your everyday data science workflow.

RAPIDS is an open-source suite of GPU-accelerated data science and A.I. libraries with APIs that match the most popular open-source data tools (e.g., pandas, scikit-learn, NetworkX). It can significantly speed-up tasks like data loading, data analysis, and training machine learning models, which can help researchers derive insights faster and more effectively.

Prerequisite: Participants will need an account on Adroit to access and work on the materials. You can request an account here if you do not already have one: https://forms.rc.princeton.edu/registration/
