COVID+DS

PyTorch is an open source framework for building neural networks. In this lesson, we will build a foundational understanding of PyTorch by developing a simple neural network, the Multilayer Perceptron (MLP). This tutorial will apply MLPs to COVID-19 related data, and lay the technical groundwork to explore more advanced models in subsequent lectures. This will be a hands-on session coding session, and a laptop is required.

This session is part of the Duke+Data Science (+DS) program virtual series on COVID-19 + Data Science. Please join us for a 8-week series on data science methods with direct applications to the COVID-19 pandemic. Learn from Duke experts about the state-of-the-art in these 1-hour virtual sessions.
