Warangal: The Department of Science & Technology (DST), New Delhi, sponsored two-week Faculty Development Programme (FDP) got underway at Kakatiya Institute of Technology & Science, Warangal (KITSW) here on Monday.
Kakatiya University (KU), Dean Faculty of Engineering, Prof T Sreenivasulu, who inaugurated the programme, said that the main objective of the FDP is to contribute to the cross fertilisation between the research on machine learning methods and their applications to speech processing. He emphasised the need for learning the basic algorithms that help to build and apply prediction functions with an emphasis on practical applications. He hailed KITSW for conducting FDP/Workshops regularly on par with the IITs and NITs. According to the guest of honour NITW Prof SG Sanjeevi, artificial intelligence (AI) means simulation of human intelligence and its one of application is speech processing. He highlighted the concepts and applications of machine learning. In our daily life knowingly or unknowingly we have been using the AI applications, he added.
In his presidential address, KITSW Principal Prof K Ashoka Reddy appreciated the Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) Department for conducting the FDP in addition to the three more lined in this academic year. "FDP is a technical platform to learn and share the latest developments in the research and updating the knowledge," he said.
Head of the CSE Department Prof V Shankar said that FDPs will act as bridge between students and industry. The faculty must take the advantage of FDPs for their own benefits, to teach the students and also apply them in the research areas. The participant will be technically competent in the basics and practical applications for their research work and as well as to design the live projects for the UG and PG students, he added.
