Secunderabad is a twin city of Hyderabad and is separated by the Hussain Sagar (locally well known as <i>Tank Bund</i>), an artificial lake constructed in 1562 A.D. The city is nearly 400 years old and is noted for its natural beauty, mosques and minarets, bazaars and bridges, hills and lakes. It is perched on the top of the Deccan Plateau, 1776 ft. above sea level, and sprawls over an area of 100 Sq. miles. Hyderabad is famous for its architecture, cuisine, pickles, and pearls. It is considered to be at cross-roads between the North and the South,the historical and the modern. The <i>Islamic</i> influences of the <i>Nawabs</i> are visible even today in the cuisine and architecture, especially in the older sections of the city, while expanding suburbs are very cosmopolitan. +</p> + +<p>A multitude of influences have shaped the character of the city and it has a distinct culture. Its palaces and buildings, houses and tenements, gardens and streets have a history and an architectural individuality of their own, which make Hyderabad a city steeped in culture. Hyderabad is also known as Cyberabad, owing to the presence of large number of IT companies. All major IT companies from across the globe have marked their presence in Hyderabad by having their offices, development centers, or research centers located there.</p> + +<p> When in Hyderabad, shopping for pearls is a must - <i>City of Pearls</i> is one of the many <i>sobriquets</i> of Hyderabad .

A visit to the Charminar and the surrounding maze of markets is an experience of a lifetime. Be sure to bargain for clothes, ethnic accessories, jewellery (especially pearls and bangles), and artefacts from the myriad vendors abounding these <i>bazaars</i>. Some advice to keep in mind while bargaining would be to start at a fourth (or less) of the price quoted, although this may not always apply.</p> + +<p>While <i>Telugu</i> is the state language, a knowledge of <i>Urdu</i>, <i>Hindi</i>, or <i>English</i>, is sufficient to get by, in many places within the city.

He started with explaining how the idea stemmed from lack of equipment for students to experiment. expEyes would be useful for students, teachers, engineers and hobbyists. The statistics showed that around 800 units has been sold and it has been included in syllabus of some universities. His efforts in making experimentation in education popular has to be really appreciated. He demoed an array of Physics(electrical/sound) experiments doable with expEYES and it's amazing to see that what can be done with this inexpensive board.

The first talk of the second day was by <b>Gaël Varoquaux</b> on <b>Machine learning as a tool for Neuroscience</b> which was one of the highlights of the conference. He started with briefly explaining parts of his talk namely Functional Brain imaging, Models of Function and Cognitive Tasks. +</p> + +<p> +He pointed the problem of the curse of dimensionality when trying to analyze the behavior of brain as the function of 50,000 voxels. This requires the expert knowledge of knowing to pick the right ones or you could use maching learning. Brain reading was the technique used for this purpose by predicting brain images from the object viewed. By this way of compressive sensing, we can reduce the amount of the brain data to be analyzed. This is an instance of supervised learning. Prediction is a selecton model metric. +</p> + +<p> +The challenging part of this analysis was that 95% of the brain activity is unrelated to the task. By using a combination of Sparsity, Spatial Continuity and Spatial Variability we can get individual maps(slightly different from each other) and combine them to form the functional region atlas. Now when trying to analyze the graphical by looking at the interaction between the regions, there are typically more than 1000's of connections. This kind of problems are being tried to be solved by Machine Learning. +</p> + +<p> +Next, he stepped onto the realm of Python for solving this problem by explaining about scikit-learn which is easy to pick up and technically efficient. The api of scikit-learn uses numpy arrays as inputs. It learns a model from the data and then predict the result from the model and further test for goodness of the result. The popular notion of python being slow was knocked out after he showed the stats depicting that scikits-learn was faster than C implementations in some cases of algorithmic implementation. The community of 57 contributors behind the module shows this project is popular. The successful ingredients are repo with developers and users and for other obvious reasons like short release cycles and test cases written. +</p> + +<p> +He then went onto talking about his other project joblib which provided Python functions on steroids. He briefed about the philosophy of the project and showed code on how it avoided recomputation to avoid dependency issues. He concluded the talk by pointing out, how to find the way in the software stack by being active on the mailing list and experimenting.

This took a bit longer than previously thought but we finally completed it by evening. If you haven't seen it already, have a look at the talks happening tomorrow and the day after. If you love either Science or Python or Both, you would be committing a sin by being not at SciPy India 2011 for the next 4 days. By afternoon, participants started pouring into IIT Bombay for the event. The registration desk at main gate, managed by Anand, Kiran, Harish, Yogesh, Manas and others, guided people to their accomodation facilities. We had already prepared this and this which would really come in handy if you are new at IITB. +</p> +<br/><br/> +<img align="center" src="/static/img/reg-desk1.jpg" title="Near the main gate" height="200" width="300" /> +<br/><br/> +<p> +While the other set of the team was busy in the lab, preparing the packages for the participants which contains various information pamphlets, notepad, a pen and food coupons for all of the days. It took hours to complete the job and the efforts of Srikant, Sushma and Priya deserves a special mention here. +</p> +<img align="center" src="/static/img/packing.jpg" title="Getting things ready" height="200" width="300" /> +<br/><br/> +<p> +Getting back to the event, it kicks off with the Keynote by Eric Jones, CEO of Enthought, talking on "What Matters in Scientific Software Projects? 10 Years of Success and Failure Distilled". All the talks in the schedule are promising and if you are low on time, talks by Invited Speakers - Mateusz Paprocki, Ajith Kumar and Prof. Prabhu Ramachandran are something you definitely wouldn't want to miss. +</p> +<p><h3>Follow this space for more live updates from the conference.</h3></p> +{% endblock content %} diff --git a/project/templates/about/fees.html b/project/templates/about/fees.html new file mode 100644 index 0000000..155f7aa --- /dev/null +++ b/project/templates/about/fees.html @@ -0,0 +1,153 @@ +{% extends "base.html" %} +{% block content %} + +<h2 id="sec-1">Fees </h2> + +<h3 id="sec-1_1">Registration fees for outstation students and teachers. </h3> + +<table border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6" rules="groups" frame="hsides"> +<caption></caption> +<colgroup><col align="left" /><col align="left" /><col align="left" /> +</colgroup> +<thead> +<tr><th scope="col">Category</th><th scope="col">Conference</th><th scope="col">Accommodation</th></tr> +<tr><th scope="col"></th><th scope="col">+ Tutorials</th><th scope="col">(all 6 days)</th></tr> +</thead> +<tbody> +<tr><td>Students</td><td>Rs. 500</td><td>Rs. 400</td></tr> +<tr><td>Teachers</td><td>Rs. 500</td><td>Rs. 400</td></tr> +</tbody> +</table> + +<h3 id="sec-1_2">Registration fees for in-station students and teachers. </h3> + +<table border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6" rules="groups" frame="hsides"> +<caption></caption> +<colgroup><col align="left" /><col align="left" /> +</colgroup> +<thead> +<tr><th scope="col">Category</th><th scope="col">Conference</th></tr> +<tr><th scope="col"></th><th scope="col">+ Tutorials</th></tr> +</thead> +<tbody> +<tr><td>Students</td><td>Rs. 500</td></tr> +<tr><td>Teachers</td><td>Rs. 500</td></tr> +</tbody> +</table> + +<h3 id="sec-1_3">Registration fees for corporates and others. </h3> + +<table border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6" rules="groups" frame="hsides"> +<caption></caption> +<colgroup><col align="left" /><col align="left" /><col align="left" /> +</colgroup> +<thead> +<tr><th scope="col">Category</th><th scope="col">Conference + Tutorials</th></tr> +</thead> +<tbody> +<tr><td>Corporates</td><td>Rs. 750</td></tr> +<tr><td>Others</td><td>Rs. 750</td></tr> +</tbody> +</table> + +<h3 id="sec-1_4">Spot registration / late payment(on-spot) </h3> + +<table border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6" rules="groups" frame="hsides"> +<caption></caption> +<colgroup><col align="left" /><col align="left" /><col align="left" /> +</colgroup> +<thead> +<tr><th scope="col">Category</th><th scope="col">Conference</th><th scope="col">Tutorials + sprints</th></tr> +</thead> +<tbody> +<tr><td>Students</td><td>Rs. 750</td><td>Included in conference fee</td></tr> +<tr><td>Teachers</td><td>Rs. 750</td><td>Included in conference fee</td></tr> +<tr><td>Corporates</td><td>Rs. 1000</td><td>Included in conference fee</td></tr> +</tbody> +</table> + +<h2 id="sec-2">Note: </h2> + +<h3 id="sec-2_1">Accommodation </h3> + +<ul> +<li> +Accommodation will be provided at a subsidized rate of Rs.100 per day for outstation teachers and students alone. +</li> +<li> +If you are sending us a DD, it should reach us on or before 20th of November, 2011. +</li> +<li> +Accommodation will be confirmed at the venue only for participants with valid identity cards from their respective institutions. +</li> +</ul> + +<h3 id="sec-2_2">Registration Fees </h3> + +<h4 id="sec-2_2_1">Online Transfer</h4> +<ul> + <li>The prefered way of paying is through DoAttend.
