Uttaranchal Institute of Technology organizes a Workshop on “Machine Learning”

Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Uttaranchal Institute of Technology organized a one-day workshop on “Machine Learning” on 20th August, 2018. The Workshop was conducted by expert Dr. Ankush Mittal, Ex Associate Professor, IIT Roorkee.

The Workshop commenced with the warm welcome of Dr. Ankush Mittal and an Introductory Speech delivered by Dr. Sumit Chaudhary, Head of the Department – Department of Computer Science and Engineering.

All the students of B.Tech.(CSE) III and IV Year participated in the Workshop. The main focus of the Workshop was to perform hands-on-practical with Machine Learning Tools. A wide range of Open Source Machine Learning Frameworks are available in the market like Orange Tool, Apache Singa, Amazon Machine Learning (AML) etc., which enable machine learning engineers to build, implement and maintain machine learning systems, generate new projects and create new impactful machine learning systems. Machine learning explores the area of algorithms, which can make high end predictions on data. In recent times, machine learning has been deployed in a wide range of computing tasks where designing efficient algorithms and programs becomes rather difficult, such as, email spam filtering, optical character recognition, search engine improvement, digital image processing, data mining, etc. Overall, the students learnt the basics of working with machine learning using Orange Tool.

At the end of the Workshop feedback was collected from the participants which concluded that the students welcomed this initiative and were motivated to explore more dimensions of this platform. They also expressed their willingness to use these tools in their projects in future.
