SEMINAR: Please join the MathWorks for complementary MATLAB seminars on Wednesday, Nov. 2nd at the University of Miami

[Grant Basham <gbasham@rsmas.miami.edu>]

Good morning. I am writing to inform you that the MathWorks will be
visiting the University of Miami for two complementary MATLAB seminars
presented by Brett Shoelson, Ph.D., Principal Application Engineer,
MathWorks. The sessions are intended for faculty, staff, researchers,
and students on Wednesday Nov. 2^nd at 9am & 2pm. I hope you received
the invitation and will be able to join us. If not, below is a copy.
Please forward to anyone you feel would be interested in learning more
about MATLAB. Please contact me with any questions.

========= *_Morning_*  RSMAS Campus =========================

Time*: 9am – 12noon * (8:45a.m.Registration and sign in)**

Title*: Analyzing Data Faster Using MATLAB and Parallel Computing*

Location*: University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine and
Atmospheric Science - SLAB Seminar Room*

_Overview_

In this session we will discuss and demonstrate simple ways to improve
and optimize your code that can significantly boost execution speed. We
will also address common pitfalls in writing m-code, and explore the use
of the MATLAB Profiler to find coding bottlenecks. We then introduce our
Parallel Computing Toolbox and Distributed Computing Server to solve
computationally and data-intensive problems on multicore computers,
GPUs, and clusters.

Highlights include:

·Understand memory usage and vectorization in MATLAB

·Address bottlenecks in your programs

·Optimize file I/O to streamline your code

·Transition from serial to parallel MATLAB programs

·GPU programming

·Scaling to a cluster

================  *_Afternoon_* Medical Campus =========================

Time: *2pm – 5pm *(1:45 p.m. Registration and sign in)

Title: *Medical Image Processing with MATLAB*

Location: *Lois Pope LIFE Center, Apex Conference Room, Miller School of
Medicine, University of Miami*

_Overview_

__

This seminar will be particularly valuable for anyone intending to use
MATLAB to acquire, process, and analyze medical images. We will begin by
showing you how to import, display and examine images in MATLAB. We will
then step you through an example involving the analysis of
immunofluorescent histochemistry images in a high-throughput gene
expression imaging problem. We will explore volume visualization of a
brain MRI image stack, optimize the alignment of CT and MRI data, and
show you how to reconstruct an image from radon and fan-beam geometries.
Additionally, we will analyze a video of a fluorescein angiogram, and
use curve-fits and neural networks to classify pixels based on
intensity-versus-time profiles.

Highlights include:

• Technical computing workflow: high-throughput gene expression images

• Volume visualization from a brain MRI image stack

• Multimodal image registration: optimize the alignment of CT and MRI data

• Video analysis and neural network-classification of a fluorescein
angiogram

• Automate analysis and share results
