Vasireddy Venkatadri Institute of Technology, under the aegis of its Computer Science Engineering Department, conducted a 2-Day Workshop on “Engineers vs. R Programming- A Learning Platform to win" for the Computer Science Engineering students, from 29th to 30th August 2017. This 2-day workshop was endorsed by the world famous Computer Science Professional body, Computer Society of India (CSI), under its VVIT-Chapter.
This 2-day National-Level workshop focused on R Programming language and its fullest exposure in Computer Science Research towards the Data Analytics and Knowledge Extraction from the scads of data available now a days on the Internet and other electronic sources. Also this workshop aimed at inculcating Research spur in the Computer Science Engineers from sophomore stage of study itself, especially by demonstrating the power of Technological tools and Statistical Programming languages like R-language. Sri Sagar emphasized that they have conducted this workshop for free of cost to all participants, with an affirmative notion of promoting research and development instinct in the young engineers for the benefit of society.
Dr. Sirisha Kasinadhuni, Director, Empiezo IT Solutions, Hyderabad, acted as the scholarly resource person & Chief Guest for this workshop. Dr.Sirisha has vast experience in applying art of Data Science and hands on expertise in Big data space.
Dr.Sirisha, who has enormous expertise in BigData and Machine Learning Tools, shared her experiences in various domains like Health Care, Retail and Financial Data Analysis using R-Programming Language. Dr.Sirisha, while addressing the participants emphasized on the importance of Data Analytics, which is a Science of Analysis of myriads of data available in the world wide web in digital form today. She inspired the participants by elaborating on how R-Programming language can help in discovering knowledge by extracting and processing the huge data.
She also gave detailed sessions exploring fundamental syntactic constructs and other salient features of R-programming language for data analysis.
She advised all the students to have high aspirations and work hard to achieve them by running their entire range of performance. She congratulated all participants for being very interactive, dynamic and active learners throughout the workshop.
