Event details:The first session, led by Dr. Prafulla Bfana, focused on the essentials of text analytics, emphasizing its role in helping businesses extract valuable insights from unstructured data. With the overwhelming volume of feedback from emails, social media, and surveys, text analysis software provides a quick and automated way to extract actionable information. This technology allows businesses to swiftly detect negative sentiment on social media, enabling them to take timely action.
The second session, delivered by Dr. Sandeep Gaikwad, explored vegetation condition monitoring using satellite remote sensing. Traditional manual surveys are time-consuming and labor-intensive, making satellite-based monitoring through Google Earth Engine (GEE) a more cost-effective and efficient alternative. Dr. Gaikwad demonstrated how vegetation indicators like NDVI, SAVI, and MNDWI are crucial for monitoring agricultural crops and surface water, with Python and JavaScript playing a key role in satellite image analysis.
In the third session, Dr. Amol Vibhute discussed the use of ChatGPT in scientific research. AI tools like ChatGPT can greatly enhance the efficiency and quality of scientific writing by streamlining processes such as drafting outlines and improving style. However, Dr. Vibhute cautioned that ChatGPT can sometimes produce inaccurate or nonsensical content, including references to non-existent studies, and therefore should not be relied upon for scientific research.
Finally, Dr. Shrikant Mapari’s session focused on the growing field of computer gaming and animation. Covering the three main types of games—console, PC, and mobile—Dr. Mapari highlighted the critical role of GPUs and graphics cards in game development. The development process involves stages such as story writing, design, human interaction, technology selection, and market analysis. Dr. Mapari also addressed the pros and cons of playing computer games, offering valuable insights into this dynamic industry.
