Emerging Research Topics in Engineering (ERTE) -2021

About ERTE 2021 “Emerging Research Topics in Engineering (ERTE)” is the flagship event of IEEE Gujarat Section. This year event is scheduled on October 1-3, 2021 in virtual mode with the theme of “Explainable AI (XAI)”. The event is aimed to encourage young researchers, PhD scholars, Master students, early career professionals and faculty members to learn the state-of-the-art of emerging and challenging research areas from eminent speakers around the globe. This may help participants to discover their career path and direct them to identify their own research topics and problem statements. What is Explainable AI? The prediction made using machine learning looks like a black box. It becomes impossible for human that why specific value is predicted by ML algorithm? The lack of explainability and trust hampers our ability to fully trust AI systems. The solution of this problem is to have explainable system. Thus, transforming the black box type of hidden functionalities of AI into transparent and understandable system is all about Explainable AI. Following are distinguished speakers of the event: – Dr. Soma Dhavala, Principal Researcher, Wadhwani AI, Bangalore, India – Dr. Vijayan K. Asari, Professor, University of Dayton, Ohio, USA – Dr. Vineeth N Balasubramanian, Professor, IIT Hyderabad, India – Dr.Rajul Jain, Director, Predictive Analytics, Global Strategic Insights at Johnson & Johnson Vision, Washington, USA – Dr. Arash Shaban-Nejad, Director of Population Health Intelligence (PopHI) Lab, Center for Biomedical Informatics, Department of Pediatrics, College of Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN, USA – Dr.Vijay Arya, Senior Researcher, IBM India Research Lab (IRL), Bangalore – Mr.Jay Shah, Research Scholar, Arizona State University Event Website Link: https://ieeegujaratsection.org/erte-2021 Registration Link: https://forms.gle/rDugsA6CQeGaxrcXA We invite you to participate in the event and interact with speakers.
