The Institute is pleased to announce that IIIT Allahabad will host the Annual “Global Alumni Meet 2023 (GAM2023)” in a Mixed mode from 02 – 03 September’2023. On 2nd September 2023, we would like to invite our esteemed Alumni from Prayagraj and near-by places for a Special Get-together (with Hon’ble Director, faculty, staff and students) and the Felicitation ceremony. On 3rd September 2023, we would like to extend our Invitation to our alumni all over the Globe to join the Alumni Meet (GVAM2023) in an Online mode. The detailed schedule of both the events on 2nd and 3rd September will be displayed on the IIITA Alumni Website (https://alumni.iiita.ac.in/).

The FOG-CPS security lab of IIIT-Allahabad and Cardiff University, UK are jointly organizing a "2 Days International Workshop on CYBER PHYSICAL SYSTEMS SECURITY" during August 21-22, 2023. The event will be sponsored by the Centre for Cyber Security and Cyber Defence of Critical Infrastructures (C3i HUB), Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) combines the physical and digital realms, allowing for real-time control of operations. However, this integration raises security concerns. As CPSs are used in important industries like manufacturing and healthcare, their susceptibility to attackers grows. Malicious activities have the potential to disrupt operations and harm lives. Securing CPSs necessitates measures such as robust authentication, encryption, and constant monitoring to discover abnormalities as soon as possible. Finding the correct combination of connection and security is critical for reaping the benefits of CPS while reducing dangers. In this workshop, scientists from the top academic institutions over the globe will provide an overview on the current trends in CPS security research challenges. Researchers from Industry, Government Organisations, Faculty, and PhD, PG/UG students are encouraged to attend the event and interact with the speakers. The workshop will be conducted in hybrid mode where participants from outside IIITA can join in online mode only. An E-Certificate of participation will be awarded to each participant. More details about the workshop can be found in the attached flyer or on the conference website.

In recent years an exponential growth in published literature on social science domain has been observed in the databases like web of science and Scopus. As the volume of publications increases, it becomes difficult for researchers and practitioners to accumulate sense making information from the scattered literature. To overcome this challenge, advance quantitative methodologies, and software tools are being employed to conduct literature review more efficiently and effectively. Systematic literature review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis (BA) are prominent methodologies for extraction and synthesis of available literature and to develop its knowledge structure.

2023 IEEE CIS Summer School on Computational Advances in Deep Learning and Applications (CADLA) is a one week short-term course organized by Computer Vision and Biometrics Lab (CVBL) at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad during 17-21 July 2023. Breakthroughs in the field of data science and computing power over the past two decades has made computational intelligence and deep learning the most powerful tools in the field of artificial intelligence. Deep learning algorithms have shown promising success in numerous applications of Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, Robotics and Automation. Present day state-of-the-art algorithms have amazed everyone with their human level performance in classification, generating life-like images and videos, automated conversations and even beating world-champions at their own games.

Satellite Image Processing is a prominent field of research and development which has become a keen interest of researchers in past few decades. There are various applications where satellite imaging is the only tool to produce the effective results, e.g., mapping of land cover, deforestation maps, growth of urban area, flood mapping etc. since a large geographical area can be monitored with the help of satellite imaging. India has a vast history of satellite missions which were successfully operated in past and continued with more number of satellites every year.

The One Month Summer Training (26 June - 22 July 2023) on Artificial Intelligence Tools And Applications will provide a comprehensive understanding of the four key areas of AI – Deep Learning, Machine Learning, Reinforcement Learning, and Robotics. Participants will learn how to design, develop, and deploy AI-based solutions for real-world problems. The course will be conducted by experienced AI professionals who will provide insights into the latest developments in the field. The training will include lectures, interactive sessions, and practical to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the subject

The Scheme “Synergistic Training Program Utilizing the Scientific and Technological Infrastructure” (STUTI) is intended to build human resources and its knowledge capacity through open access S & T Infrastructure across the country. As a complement to the various schemes of DST funding for expansion of R & D Infrastructure at academic institution. STUTI schemes envisions a hands-on training program and sensitization of the state-of-the-art equipment as well as towards sharing while ensuring transparent access of S & T facilities.

Behavioural finance is an emerging area of study which considers the theories based on psychology to elucidate the anomalies in the financial market. Of late there is a lot of researches happening in the field of behavioural finance. The development of technology has made accessible information to the general public. Any information is available to investors at a relatively faster rate than ever before.
