The Knowledge Sharing Session on Technical Paper presentation and latest trends in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering

The Department of Electronics and Telecommunication organized its monthly Knowledge Sharing Session, under the R&D cell on December 15, 2020 from 10:30 to 11:30 am in Seminar Hall 2 (first floor). The Knowledge Sharing Session initiative involves two activities namely a Technical Paper presentation and some recent trends whose main motive was to update Faculty members with the latest trends in Technology and Research.
The first session was taken up by Prof. Kimberly Moraes and the second session by Prof. Priyanka Padiyar.
Prof. Priyanka Padiyar presented a paper titled “A Comparative Study of Wavelet based ANN and classical techniques for Geophysical Time Series Forecasting”, under the Signal Processing & Artificial Neural Network Domains. She began with the importance of Wavelet Transform & its scope in the future. Time Series Forecasting models such as W-ARIMA, W-Kalman Filters and W-ANN were discussed in detail. The presentation focused on comparative analysis of the time series models for Linear and Non-Linear Datasets and the advantages of using Wavelets.

Prof. Kimberly Morais presented a technical talk titled “Understanding your Electricity Bill”, under the Electrical Engineering category. She began with how she came up with the idea. She broke the electricity bill into five parts and explained each part. The bill consists of consumer details, electricity connection details, and consumption details. She explained in detail how the electricity bill is calculated.

The event was encouraged by R&D Chair Dr. Varsha Turkar and coordinated by Prof. Flavia Leitao. Both the sessions were knowledgeable & received good feedback from the audience.
