This Hackathon is part of the Industry-inspired Transnational Education in Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning project. This Hackathon is part of the Industry-inspired Transnational Education in Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning project. Dr. Amit Chattopadhyay from Aston was present for this event at SIT. Dr. Swati Ahirrao from the CSE department visited Aston during the duration of the Hackathon event.
Research Scholar Lecture Series
The department of CSE, IT, and AIML arranged sessions of research scholar lecture series.
Ms. Shraddha Deshmukh conducted a session flourish tool - which is a data visualization and storytelling tool. Data visualization is a niche area related to any research activity. So this session is found to be useful for undergraduate as well as PhD scholars also.
Mr. Mayur Gaikawd conducted a session on UI for Machine Learning activities. In his session, he showed sample projects using StreamLit which is found to be an effective tool for UI related to ML. Audience for this session is from B.Tech and PhD scholars also.
