SUMMARY:ORCID for UTSA Researchers
DESCRIPTION:How can you ensure that your scholarly works online are correctly attributed to you and not to another researcher with a similar name? ORCID can help. It is a free\, unique\, persistent identifier (PID) for individuals to use as they engage in research\, scholarly\, and innovation activities across the globe. UTSA researchers are now required to have an ORCID iD to meet funders’ mandates for federally funded research. Whether your field is in sciences or humanities\, take advantage of ORCID to tell a story of your research impact. Learn how to maximize the benefits of ORCID\, how it can help you save time\, and how to set up automatic updates to keep your ORCID record current. \nRegister for this eventPresented by: Natasha Arguello\, Emily Johnson\, and Rachel Davis of UTSA Libraries

SUMMARY:WORKSHOP DAY 2- Machine learning fundamentals for socio-demographic researchers. - Texas Research Data Center
DESCRIPTION:Presented By: Michael C. Lotspeich-Yadao\, University of Illinois\, Urbana-ChampaignThe rapid evolution of computational power\, statistical methodologies\, and the proliferation of large datasets have spurred a significant rise in the application of machine learning (ML) techniques in various fields. For population researchers\, integrating data sources such as social media\, mobile phone data\, crowd-sourced information\, and remote sensing imagery with traditional demographic data has opened up new avenues for predicting population trends and enhancing causal inference. \nDespite their potential\, the swift advancement of machine learning methods and the associated specialized terminology can make these techniques challenging to grasp\, particularly for those more accustomed to traditional research methodologies. At its core\, machine learning automates the discovery of patterns and insights from data. This represents a pivotal shift in computer science\, where earlier intelligent systems primarily relied on static algorithms—fixed sets of instructions designed to produce specific outcomes from given inputs. These advancements offer powerful tools for monitoring\, understanding\, and predicting the factors that shape human well-being across different dimensions such as time\, space\, and demographic characteristics\, with applications spanning mortality\, health\, fertility\, social and economic processes\, and sustainable development. \nThis workshop aims to demystify the goals\, methodologies\, and applications of machine learning within the context of population research. Participants will engage in hands-on tutorials\, applying ML methods using R and data from the U.S. Census Bureau. While the course will provide an overview of the theoretical foundations of machine learning\, the primary focus is on practical application\, equipping attendees with the skills to employ these techniques effectively in their research. \nRegister for this eventView more information
