NAAMII Research Internships 2020

30 Oct 2020

NAAMII successfully completed 3 months of internship program, where we selected 40 students and engineers from a large number of applications. These selected participants were taught courses on Mathematics for ML (Probability & Statistics + Linear Algebra), Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing for three months with weekly lectures. Few selected interns were further given research project assignments and continued for 3 more months. Highly motivated individuals interested in doing research joined our internship program. We believe that it provided an excellent opportunity to develop research skills and learn from experts around the world.
