The workshop will cover basic code profiling and optimisation to make the best use of the platform.This workshop is aimed for researchers that have little or no experience with profiling. Nevertheless, participants are expected to have general experience with Python, Jupypter Notebooks and machine learning. Attendees will gain a practical understanding of sizing tasks with respect to memory constraints and how to avoid bottlenecks which lead to poor performance.The workshop will focus on simple techniques and will avoid advanced (or intermediate topics). Areas that require advanced expertise are highlighted but are not covered in depth.The workshop is presented and promoted as part of an ML4AU Community of Practice series. MLeRP is a collaboration between Monash University, University of Queensland and QCIF. MLeRP received investment (<a href="https://doi.org/10.47486/NML01" title="https://doi.org/10.47486/NML01" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://doi.org/10.47486/NML01</a>) from the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC). The ARDC is funded by the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS).Workshop Highlights<ul><li>Understanding the environment, setup and general workflow</li><li>Profiling basics using TensorFlow’s built in tools</li><li>Managing large profiling datasets</li><li>Identify bottlenecks in order to speed up run-times</li><li>Configuration and sizing tasks for optimal use of resources</li><li>Simple optimisation strategies</li></ul>Attendees<ul><li>The workshop is open to Australian and New Zealand researchers.
