CO CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

On March 26th 2025, the Department of Information Science & Engineering, hosted an expert talk titled “Time Series Analysis, Forecasting, and Auto-correlation in High-Dimensional Spaces: Insights for Healthcare and Economics,” delivered by Dr. Jobin Thomas, Assistant Professor, Leap-RV University, Bangalore. The session introduced time series analysis, forecasting techniques, and auto-correlation in high-dimensional data, focusing on applications in healthcare and economics. Methods such as ARIMA, exponential smoothing, and LSTMs were discussed alongside challenges in high-dimensional datasets. Real-world applications were highlighted, including disease outbreak prediction, patient monitoring, and economic forecasting. Practical demonstrations of time series forecasting using Python and machine learning tools enriched the session. Participants actively engaged in a Q&A session, clarifying doubts and exploring research opportunities. The talk bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge with practical insights, enhancing understanding of statistical and machine learning techniques.
