Announcement
The MathWorks will be conducting training courses for beginner, intermediate and advanced users of MATLAB, Statistics and Optimization in Boston, MA this June and July.
The following courses will be offered:
ML01: MATLAB Fundamentals and Programming Techniques -- June 28-29
Provides a comprehensive understanding of MATLAB as a programming language. This course is intended for beginner and intermediate users. No prior knowledge of MATLAB is required. This course covers working with matrices, data manipulation, graphical visualization, and programming. Additional topics include file I/O, advanced data types, Handle Graphics, and graphical user interface design.
ST01: Statistical Methods in MATLAB -- June 30
Introduces statistical tools in MATLAB and the Statistics Toolbox. Covers performing data file input and output, handling of large and incommensurate data sets, computing descriptive statistics, performing statistical plotting and visualization, and fitting distributions to data. Explains using random number generators, simulation, and basic inferential methods. Examples and exercises come from a cross-section of application areas in science, engineering, and finance.
OP01: MATLAB-Based Optimization Techniques -- July 1
Provides an introduction to optimization in the MATLAB environment, focusing on the functions in the Optimization Toolbox. Discusses a variety of basic problem types and their corresponding optimization functions. Emphasis is on problem identification, accurate formulation, and use of appropriate methods. Discusses algorithms at a level consistent with understanding input/output behavior and performing necessary diagnostics. Covers general techniques for producing usable output in numerical and graphical form. The course includes many hands-on examples from a cross-section of application areas.
ML05: Building Graphical User Interfaces with MATLAB -- July 2
Demonstrates how to build graphical user interfaces (GUIs) in MATLAB. Explains how to build GUIs in MATLAB from the command line by using MATLAB's graphical user interface development environment (GUIDE). Introduces concepts for designing and laying out GUIs. Demonstrates how actions defined by code can be linked to a user interface object, such as a push button. Explains how to create custom menus for GUIs.
