The Department of Computer Science and Engineering of Vemana Institute of Technology has organized aworkshop on "Version Control Made Easy : Git & GitHub" on 12/08/2023 at 10.00 AM. The key speaker was Mr Shubham Luharuka , Machine Learning Engineer at Cloud SEK,Bengaluru.

Mr Shubhamad dressed as Git is an open-source and free distributed version control system developed to handle projects of all sizes quickly and efficiently. Repositories contain a batch of files that are different versions of a project. These files are imported from the repositories into the local servers of users for further modifications and updates in the content. Git Bash is an application that installs Bash, Git, and a few Bash utilities that are commonly used on a Windows OS. In Git Bash, interaction is possible with Git elements and the repository through different commands.GitHub uses Git to provide Internet hosting for version control and software development.

He has explained how the ‘Git config’ is a great way to configure our options for the Git installation. Using this command, we can define the repository behavior, preferences and user information. The git push command is applied for uploading content to a remote repository from a local repository. Pushing can overwrite changes, so it should be used with caution. A branch occurs within a repository and is a way to keep developing and modifying the software without affecting the main project. He also explained ‘git Is-tree’ represents a tree object including the mode and the name of each item and the SHA-1 value of the blob or the tree. ‘Git Instaweb’ automatically directs a web browser and runs webserver with an interface into your local repository. ‘git add’ adds file changes in your existing directory to your index.

The workshop is organized for five days with two set of batches, batch 1/slot 1: 3^rd to 7^th January 2023 and batch 2/slot 2: 9^th to 13^th January 2023. The sessions are well planned and circulated to all the participants. Total 100 students had took part in the workshop.

Few snippets of workshop are shown below :

Content :

Day 1 : Introduction to Python Programming, Working with Python IDE, Pycharm vs Anaconda, Sample Basic Programmes.

Day 2 : Conditional & Control statements, Functions, Dictionaries, Lists. Object Oriented Programming, Hands-On session on python.

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering of Vemana Institute of Technology has organized a 1-day workshop on "Deep Learning" On 12/12/2022 at 9:30 AM. The key speaker as Mr.Shubham Luharuka, University Ambassador & Dli Instructor, NVIDIA. Headdressed on Deep learning is a subset of machine learning, which is essentially a neural network with three or more layers. These neural networks attempt to simulate the behavior of the human brain—albeit far from matching its ability—allowing it to “learn” from large amounts of data Deep learning drives many artificial intelligence (AI) applications and services that improve automation, performing analytical and physical tasks without human intervention. Deep learning technology lies behind everyday products and services (such as digital assistants, voice-enabled TV remotes, and credit card fraud detection) as well as emerging technologies (such as self-driving cars).

He highlighted on the accuracy of deep learning models largely depends on the quality, quantity, and contextual meaning of training data. However, data scarcity is one of the most common challenges in building deep learning models. In production use cases, collecting such data can be costly, time-consuming and given few examples deep learning platforms on Tensorflow, Keras ,Pytorch and MXNet. And he enlighted on how to build a deep learning model, Back propagation algorithm, different types of errors, Convolution Neural Network. Hands on was given on hand written recognition and clothing recognition systems.
