Introduction to Energy Machine Learning Workshop
Workshop Objective:
Introduce the theory and practical applications of machine learning within the Energy industry as means to help improve data-driven decision making.
The course will be delivered by renowned Geostatistics and Reservoir Modeling expert, Dr. Michael Pyrcz, a leader at daytum and an Associate Professor from University of Texas at Austin, Hildebrand Department of Petroleum Engineering and Geosystems Engineering
Course materials will consist of web-hosted lecture materials, instructor led, well-documented methods, workflow demonstrations, and coding examples. The workshop will be delivered via a cloud-based Jupyter Lab session, so the only thing you need to bring are your laptop and your fingers!
Registrants will be required to provide their github username (please include it in the comments section during the registration). We will be using github usernames to provide access to the Jupyter Lab which contains classroom notes and coding exercises.If you don't have a github account, please create a free one using this link: https://github.com/join?source=header-home.
Upon completion, all participants will be given SPE GCS Professional Develop Hours and Daytum Course Completion Certificate!
