Storytelling has a long history in India as an Oral memory. Through thetalk the objective would be to choose the right story at the right time . It can be in business, education , volunteering or conservation .
We’re going to first talk about how various fields have come up - cliodynamics, econometrics, the like - fields that use intensive mathematical and statistical constructs, to analyze social and economic structures. We’re also going to discuss how recent advances in computing, have made - and are making - these fields blow up in terms of what they can now help us analyze and answer.
Next, we’re going to talk about key problems that a data scientist and a social scientist face, when they put their skills together to attack and analyze a particular problem statement. Broadly, these 4 areas are:
- Data - Questions - Models - Findings - Acceptance
A lot of the points we cover here, are from personal experience, as well as takeaways culled from research being undertaken across the world, in this regard.
Finally, we’re going to try out a sample problem - predicting and analyzing racial segregation using math - to get some sort of exposure to the assumptions one makes, and the consequences of said assumptions, while trying to fit human actions into a mathematical model.

Have an idea, story, research project, presentation, photo collection or expertise on a topic. Present everything in a better way with effective content and awesome design for you to reach a wider audience! The idea is to engage actively via your SlideShare account.
Everyone is aware about companies handling corporate communication and social communication like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn etc. Everyone needs more and more people to follow their company so that they can communicate with their customers more effectively. Companies share content on their social media pages to create a buzz around their ideas, believes and future goals. People build trust on companies based on what they are saying and sharing with their audience, how much do they know about their own industry. More the companies talk about their fields and their experience with audience, more they gain the trust of the people.

Benjamin collaborates closely with several design studios. His infographics projects have been repeatedly recognized internationally and featured in design publications such as “Designing News: Changing the World of Editorial Design and Information Graphics” (Gestalten, 2013). In 2013, he curated the exhibition Swiss Style Reboot, which explores the relevance of the graphic design principles developed in Switzerland in the 1950s for today’s infographics, data visualizations and interactive interfaces.
Do you need to be an artist to appreciate art and beauty? The obvious answer is a no. But how many of us really take the time and effort to not merely look at art, but actually appreciate it for all it’s beauty, complexity, minimalism and honesty? What would be the impact of a lifestyle where we make active choices to appreciate art and help nurture it in our society? These are just some of the questions that have bothered us and we hope to discuss them with you too in the hope of ushering in some kind of change in the way we view the world today.
The most beautiful thing about Art is that it is interactive.
What the artist creates is only one part of the process. The rest depends on what you as a viewer brings to it. How do YOU see it? How do YOU interact with it? Maybe you will see it in a way that the artist did not even imagine. This makes Art infinite. What you can get from it depends entirely on who you are.
There are three objectives associated with my session.
1) Provide a deeper insight into the most disscussed concept or rather a vision in the technological world.
What will happen when the things surrounding us, homes and cities that we live in will all become smart.
2) Provide a technological base to start off in designing an IOT product.
3) Demonstrate a working IOT based system (E-Health Monitoring System), which I designed for my BE project and how this system is scalable and useful for improving the quality of patient care in rural and urban areas of our country.
The session will start off by defining and understanding the vision of IOT, how it’s gonna transform our lives and then once we have a good understanding of the subject I will touch the technical aspects that one require to implement and realize the full potential of IOT. Technical aspects would include understanding the domain of Wireless Sensor Networks, hardware and software platforms and some of the wireless communication technologies like ZigBee which are used in the IOT field.
At the end I will demonstrate an IOT based system called “E-Health Monitoring System ” which I have devloped as my BE project. After attending the session you will have a greater understanding of the topic and will find yourself in a position to start designing your own IOT based system/product.
