Here are the steps to starting the Jupyter notebook that shows machine learning in action:

  1. After logging into your virtual machine, navigate to ~/moledata/machinelearning
  2. Enter . go.sh (or the more verbose equivalent source go.sh)
  3. Copy the URL specified in the last line of output into a web browser on your local laptop
  4. Click on the Jupyter notebook file Machine_Learning_for_Population_Genetics_V2.ipynb to open it
  5. Change the kernel to MOLE using the Kernel > Change kernel menu item (the default kernel will not work)
  6. Run each section of the notebook by repeatedly pressing the Run button. Most sections finish almost instantaneously, but the ones that require computation will be slower. Be sure to wait for a couple of seconds before pressing the Run button again to make sure it is not still computing. When done, hit the Logout button at the top until you have logged out of all browser windows
  7. Back in the terminal of your virtual machine, press Ctrl-C twice (or maybe three times) to quit the server and return to your bash prompt.
