Data Science and Machine Learning Summer Workshop
The ACM student chapter IGDTUW conducted a Summer Training workshop for
all the students across all the branches and years on the topic
Data Science and Machine Learning.
The training was conducted from made 15 May 2020 to 30 June 2020.
Topics included writing program in Python, collecting data and visualising
it by plots and graphs followed by supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms
of machine learning including the usage of neural networks.
For one month all the candidates were taught above topics and then in the
next two weeks of the summer training program they were assigned with mentors
and projects which they had to build under the guidance of the provided mentors.
There were Keynote sessions by Industry Specialists and Professors working
in the field of Machine Learning.
Around 60+ students from different disciplines of IT, CSE & ECE across
different years (first years, second years, third years) from IGDTUW
and many other colleges particated in the workshop.
This is the first time such a fully-virtual workshop has been organized by Chapter and
it was loved by our particiapnts.
ACM Summer Workshop Project Challenge
After the two weeks of project building the students had to showcase
their work virtually.
This presentation was in the form of a competition where the prizes were in the field of:
1. Best in overall concept
2. Best in Data Collection and Analysis
3. Best Project in Deep Learning
The presentations were judged by the mentors themselves.
There were certain projects which were even taken up to higher
level of research, after the completion of the workshop,
giving the candidates great exposure of research field.
