Management Development Programme on STATISTICAL MODELLING FOR DATA ANALYSIS

Management Development Programme  STATISTICAL MODELLING FOR DATA ANALYSIS 


(SMDA 2012) 
(December 10-15, 2012) 

Organised By

VINOD GUPTA SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT
INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY KHARAGPUR
KHARAGPUR - 721302,
WEST BENGAL, INDIA

OBJECTIVE OF THE COURSE
Statistical modelling is an important branch in mathematical sciences, which finds utility in almost all areas of sciences, engineering, management and social sciences. The rapid development of computing technology has further raised its importance and placed great demands on its application to real life problems. With the availability of various multivariate techniques and user-friendly statistical software, the ability to analyse large amount of data is not only desirable, but a necessity for any professionals. Such techniques and software are usually very complex and confusing for the uninitiated. There are several issues in this process like selection of appropriate technique, selection of right software, interpretation of results and so forth. The objective of this programme is to emphasize broad range of techniques for data analysis and to foster multi-disciplinary research in these areas.
TOPICS TO BE COVERED
  • Module 1: Introduction to SMDA
  • Module 2: Modelling design
  • Module 3: Estimation and hypothesis testing
  • Module 4: Basics of statistical modelling
  • Module 5: Analysis of Variance

IEEE Medical Imaging Workshop 2012

IEEE Medical Imaging Workshop 2012

19th November - 30th November, 2012

Introduction
Medical imaging is one of the biggest blessings of science and technology to serve the humanity. The remarkable developments in the field of medical imaging is intensified by the advancement in image processing, pattern recognition and machine intelligence techniques and they have strengthened the recent advancement of medical diagnostics. The key benefits of medical imaging is non-invasive diagnosis. Medical imaging can be used for early detection, where the diseases could be detected at an early stage and thereby the chance of revival is increased for the patients and that comes with less pain and expenditure. Over the years people from various disciplines including doctors, engineers and scientists have strengthened this niche area of medical imaging. Though it’s an exciting area of research, the role of south-east Asian countries and African nations are very insignificant in this domain. However, to make the affordable solution available and acceptable to the masses the active participation of the local researchers is necessary in this region. One of the primary challenges of this domain is that it needs a multi-disciplinary approach. This workshop brings the key personalities/participants to share with you their experiences and recent advances in this field. It provides you the recent trend of industry needs and research and creates an opportunity to develop the local as well as global network. Department of Electronics & Electrical Communication Engineering and School of Medical Science & Technology, IIT Kharagpur being actively involved in multidisciplinary research and teaching in medical imaging and instrumentation, image processing and pattern analysis, provides the venue for this workshop.
