On February 28th, 2023, the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning organized a one-day workshop titled "Machine Learning Using Python" for diploma students. This workshop aimed to familiarize participants with both the theoretical and practical aspects of machine learning algorithms using Python.

Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence that allows computers to learn from data without explicit programming. It has become increasingly pervasive in daily life, transforming the way people live. Python is a programming language that allows for the creation of machine learning algorithms and is often considered the best platform for machine learning systems.

The workshop was conducted by Dr. Sunitha C, Head of the Department of AIML, and Ms. Aparna S Balan, Assistant Professor in the Department of AIML. Twenty-seven students from various polytechnics, including WPTC Neupuzha, MTI Thrissur, and GPTC Kunnamkulam, participated in the workshop.

The event commenced with an inaugural session at 9:30 am. Dr. Sunitha C delivered the welcome speech and gave a brief overview of the technical sessions of the workshop. Dr. Saji C B, the principal, inaugurated the workshop and delivered the inaugural address. Ms. Aparna S Balan delivered the vote of thanks.

The technical session began with an introduction to basic machine learning methods, followed by hands-on sessions on Python programming fundamentals and a demonstration of machine learning algorithms using the scikit-learn library in Python.

At the end of the workshop, a feedback session was conducted, and participants shared excellent feedback regarding the conduct and content of the workshop. Participants received e-certificates for their participation.
