CONFERENCE ON
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Plaksha University's Annual Conference

2022 Focus : Sustainability

27 - 29 April 2022 | Mohali, Punjab

ABOUT CONF-AI

Empirical approaches have become a paradigm of choice for modeling, understanding and discovery. Prompted in part by significant advances in Artificial Neural Networks, Machine Learning, and other data driven technologies, and in part by increased digitization, Data Science has found applicability in almost all aspects of human endeavors.

Recognizing the profound impact that Data Science can have on the quality of life, Plaksha University is organizing a 3-day academic conference. This themed intellectual conference will focus on 3 topics that can positively improve our quality of life and will offer participants with a unique opportunity to network, share, learn, and be inspired by the best from the academia, industry, and the government. The inaugural edition will serve as a unique platform to share knowledge, debate the latest trends, and address business and societal priorities via thought-provoking discussions and insightful conversations.
