Project Name: Give a name to the new project.
Project Description: Describe the project.
Select Algorithms: Select Algorithms using the drop-down menu.
Environment: Allows users to select the environment they want to work in. Currently, the supported Python frameworks are TensorFlow and PyTorch.
If the users select the TensorFlow environment, they do not need to install packages like the TensorFlow and Keras explicitly in the notebook. These packages can simply be imported inside the notebook.
If the users select the PyTorch environment, they do not need to install packages like the Torch and Torchvision explicitly in the notebook. These packages can simply be imported inside the notebook.
The user can select an option out of the given choices: 1. Python Tensor Flow, 2. Python PyTorch
Resource Allocation: This allows the users to allocate CPU/ GPU and memory to be used by the Notebook container inside a given project. The currently supported Resource Allocation options are Low, Medium, and High.
Idle Shutdown: Idle Shutdown: It allows the users to specify the idle time limit after which the notebook session will get disconnected, and the project will be deactivated. To use the notebook again, the project should be activated. The supported Idle Shutdown options are 30m, 1h, and 2h.
External Libraries: Provide the external libraries’ links required for the project.
Based on the selection of the Resource Allocation field the following fields appear with pre-selected values:
Image Name
Image Version
Limit
