About the Department:

   B. Tech in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science is a blend of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science in the domain of Computer Science and Engineering. This program enables the students to build intelligent machines / bots, software, or applications with a combination of state of the art artificial intelligence/ machine learning, analytics and visualization tools / technologies.
   Artificial Intelligence is a well-established exciting specialization of computer science concerned with methods to make computers or machines more intelligent. It leads to learning from experience, deriving implicit knowledge and predict the future course of actions that people can follow.
   Many successful applications based on machine learning exist already, including systems that analyze past sales data to predict customer behavior (financial management), recognize faces or spoken speech, optimize robot behavior so that a task can be completed using minimum resources, and extract knowledge from data.
   This programme discusses AI methods based in different fields, including neural networks, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Data Analytics and Data Visualization, in order to present a unified treatment of Societal problems and solutions.
