ICIIT 2018 : Call for Tutorial Proposals

The ICIIT 2018 Organizing Committee invites proposals for tutorials to be given on December 10th, 2018, immediately preceding the main conference. We welcome proposals for tutorials on topics of emerging importance for Data Science & Analytics. We will consider tutorials on any topic if the proposal makes a strong argument that, such a tutorial serves an important function for the ICIIT community. Tutorials should be of interest to a substantial part of the ICIIT audience and represent a sufficiently mature area of research or practice. We especially encourage tutorials with a hands-on component.

We anticipate to accept four tutorials, running two in parallel; each tutorial will be 2 hours long.
