Due to the already action-packed schedule[1] we were unable to adjust our schedule to meet the venue availability and we were forced to look for an alternate venue at the last moment. After a lot of sleepless nights balancing budgets and tireless days running around looking for an alternate venue, we are happy to announce that our new venue for the main conference is AMANORA THE FERN Hotels and Club, in Amanora Park Town, Magarpatta Road, Hadapsar, Pune, 411028. They are a new and beautiful club in Amanora Park Town who were happy to host us and we hope to set up a memorable event with their help. We know it is late as many have already booked their stay in Pune, but we had no choice as we had exhausted all possibilities. As usual if you have any difficulties in planning then please feel free to reach out to us and we will try and help to the best of our abilities.

I would like to talk about "Artificial Neural Networks" Description: An Artificial Neural network (ANN) is an information-processing paradigm that is inspired by the way our human brain neurons works. For example, neural nets can be used to recognize handwritten digits, it can also be used in image recognition systems and lot more. Computers use an algorithmic approach, but ANN will work similar to the human brain and will learn from examples. Thank You!

Most of the free software communities host their planet instance, add all their community member's blogs. Example - http://planet.gnome.org/ http://planet.gnome.org/ The community members can write their blog posts anywhere, like wordpress.com, blogger.com or on their own site, with RSS feature enabled. With planet, we can see all their posts on a single place. But, we need a VPS to install planet. As this costs money, most of the tech communities dont have a planet RSS aggregation. Thinking of providing a free SAAS model planet solution for the tech communities. Example domain is freeplanet.org Now, anyone can register, get a subdomain, get a planet instance for that subdomain, and add blogs of their members. Example - ilugc.freeplanet.org, chennaipy.freeplanet.org, chennaigeeks.freeplanet.org Is there any such available already? Is it possible to build such a system with planet software or similar software? The current planet support a single instance. How can we make it as SAAS software? Share your thoughts.

Helps reduce the number of mistakes - Type Systems - Think of them like magic boxes - They run through the source code - Check if the program makes sense given the set of operations (rules) - Dynamic Typing vs Static Typing - General myth that static has types and dynamic means no types - He explained that both actually have types. - Static languages get to know about the type at runtime - Dynamic languages get to know about the type at compile time - He then showed examples where errors where caught during compile time in C# but went undetected until runtime in Python - Advantages and Disadvantages of both based on the following criteria - Hackable or not (easy to get started and build things) - Readability - Iteration speed - Enforces tests or not - Size of code base - Gradual Typing - Advantages of both - Runtime fluidity marries compile time rigidity - Some languages / frameworks with gradual typing - Hack - Typescript - mypy - Why Gradual Typing? - Rigidity - Better dev tools - Readability - Conscise code base - It is possible to migrate your codebase to gradual typing in part ### GUI Using Python by Gaurav Sehrawat Gaurav went over the following:- - Basic Info - tkinter is a Python interface to Tcl/Tk - Tcl/Tk is cross platform - Tcl is a dynamic language. Tk is an extension provided for development of GUIs - Uses native system APIs - Each GUI is basically a collection of frames. Each frame has a layout manager - The IDLE editor is built using Tkinter - Python 2 vs Python 3 - Very easy to port Tkinter code. It's very similar across both 2 & 3 - Letter casing is different or it is has a prefix - Geometry Manager or Layout Manager - Specify relations with respect to other elements - Pack (simple layout manager) - Grid (table like) - When to Use Pack - Simple geometry like up, down etc - Side by Side - Element go on top of each other - If you need something more complex and specific it's always better to go with grid. - Widget List - Labels - Buttons - Dialog Boxes etc - He showed the following examples - Hello, World - Pack - Grid - Events and bindings - Dialog Boxes - Matplot lib - Matplot lib dynamic plots using changes in real time data - opencv ### Networking Tea Break ### YAML Validation in Python by Vijay Kumar - He quicly went over the basics - Different methods of representing data - Impacts of representation - Benefits of text representation - Easy to create - Easy to use Version Control Systems - Easy to review - Explained about Asciidoc. Humans can enter text. It then converts it to other formats using toolchains - Types of Data - Structured Data - Structures that are easy for computers to understand but difficult for humans - They can be manipulated by the computer easily - Example arrays, Databases - Unstructured Data - Human oriented - Harder for machines to work with such data - Eg Word Documents - Semi Structured Data - Easy for both computers and humans - Eg:- XML, JSON, YAML - It undergoes an additional step like parsing - YAML - Superset of JSON - Syntax and things possible - Examples of YAML that helps him organise ChennaiPy - Roadblocks to using YAML - Human input prone to errors - Proper validation is key - Difficulties in validation YAML - Writing code that handles verification is hard - No schema available for YAML - Examples of nasty error messages thrown when validation fails - Using jsonschema to validate YAML thus giving better error checking and friendlier prompts ### Lightning Talk by Ashok Govindarajan He spoke about his broad top level views on Machine Learning. - Born out of pattern recognition - Mostly comprises of curve fitting, adapt, predict and recommend - Why the sudden rise in Machine Learning? - There from quite a long time - Sudden rise due to faster hardware, more storage and lots of good sources of data - Role of low cost sensors - Machine learning preceeds / enables decision making - Helps in intuition to data driven decisions ### Credits Vijay thanked Inkmonk for sponsoring the venue and Zilogic Systems for sponsoring the projector. ### Group Photo Regards, Abhirath -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
