Merlin Jupyter Notebook Training with HugeCTR

These example notebooks demonstrate how to use NVTabular with HugeCTR. Each example provides details about the end-to-end workflow, which includes Download data, ETL, and Training.

Each example notebook is structured as follows:

1. 01-Download-Convert.ipynb: Demonstrates how to download the dataset and convert it into the correct format so that it can be consumed.
2. 02-ETL-with-NVTabular.ipynb: Demonstrates how to execute the preprocessing and feature engineering pipeline (ETL) with NVTabular on the GPU.
3. 03-Training-with-HugeCTR.ipynb: Demonstrates how to train a model with HugeCTR based on the ETL output.
