<p>19 yr old Nao Kondo (JAPAN), co-founder of TRYBOTS, came to us last year to talk about her plans to make life-like bionic underwater penguin robots. This year, armed with a working prototype, she comes back to Singapore to showcase her robot design!</p>
<p>TRYBOTS</p>
<p>We are a team making animal robots. All of the five members in it are 20 years old. Now we are making an underwater penguin robot "MORUPEN"and actually we made it swim with real penguins. Why can penguins swim so fast only with flapping their wings? Our First mission is to solve this question. We are developing it to make it close to the real penguin. The second mission is deploying underwater robot as a service robot. The flipping system is more safety and not tangled than screw system. So we believe underwater animal robot will succeed in places where duty and sharing with human.</p>
<p>Biography:</p>
<p>While in high school, Kondo founded the group with five teenage designers that developed a diving and swimming robot penguin, Morupen!, In 2013, Morupen! won an underwater robot competition, in the open segment, sponsored by the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology. She is is currently studying robotics at elite Keio University, where she is a member of the aeronautics club and recently she got glider licence</p>

<p>When you hear the word "drone," you probably think of a flying gadget.</p>
<p>In this session, we will have Syab Phang to share with us on how she got started with drones after a friend of hers introduced her to the maker community in Singapore through Repair Kopitiam by Sustainable Living Lab. She was helping out at Maker Faire last year and noticed that there were a lot of booths showcasing the drones that were built. After Maker Faire, there was an open call for applications to OneMaker Group’s Apprenticeship Programme and it was then that she decided to jump into the Drone bandwagon and used that opportunity try and build a drone from scratch.</p>
<p>Participants will get to know more about drones from Syab's perspective and how you can get start making your own drone!</p>

<p>Speaker: Atreya Biswas</p>
<p>Synopsis: A Machine Learning Pipeline can be broadly thought of as many tasks which includes - Data Ingestion - Data Cleaning - Feature Extraction - Training Models - Hyper Parameter Optimization - Model Evaluation - Model Deployment. Luigi is Spotify's open sourced Python framework for batch data processing including dependency resolution, workflow resolution, visualisation, handling failures and monitoring. Scikit-Learn is the most popular and widely used Machine Learning Library in Python. We will demonstrate how Luigi and Scikit-Learn can be used to orchestrate the Machine Learning Tasks, hence creating a cohesive Machine Learning Pipeline.</p>
<p>Speaker: Atreya is currently working as a Data Scientist for Pocketmath, a Digital Advertisement buying platform with Real Time Bidding. In his day to day life he has to process TBs of data using Hadoop, Spark and apply machine learning techniques. Prior to joining Pocketmath, he was pursuing his Master's in Enterprise Business Analytics from National University Of Singapore and also working as a Machine Learning Associate with Newcleus, a CRM Data Analytics Platform. At Newcleus, he has been responsible to productise a Machine Learning platform which ingests CRM data from Salesforce, apply cleaning and Machine Learning. Further his final year thesis was in association with Dailymotion, a video platform for web and mobile. At Dailymotion he was exposed to the world of Natural Language Processing and Text Mining on Twitter data to improve their existing recommendation system using Twitter trending topics. He has an experience of 2 years with SAP Labs in the Research and Development team creating Enterprise Applications in the Mobile and Big Data Space. He has been using Python now for almost 2.5 years for data analysis and backend development. Some of the libraries which he uses in his day to day task are - numpy, scipy, pandas, scikit-learn, luigi, hyperopt, flask etc.</p>
<p>Apart from work and technology he is a Football aficionado, love travelling to new places, read comics and an amateur wine connoisseur.</p>

<p>Synopsis: Instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) is an aviation flight category that describes weather conditions that require pilots to fly primarily by reference to instruments, and therefore under instrument flight rules (IFR), rather than by outside visual references. We study the NTSB aviation accident database which contains information from 1962 and later about civil aviation accidents regarding all cases of fatal air crashes in the world due to bad weather conditions (IFR-based). Using classical and Bayesian statistics we build a model for effective calculation of the probability of the occurrence of next accident for the major airlines operating their flights with AIRBUS, BOEING, Embraer, and McDonnell Douglas types of aircrafts.</p>
<p>Speaker: Dr. Pawel Lachowicz (Sydney, Australia) received his PhD by applying novel techniques of signal processing in astrophysics from Polish Academy of Sciences in 2007. He worked at Temasek Laboratories and NUS in Singapore after that. He is a leading expert in data analysis covering financial markets, an educator, an author of books on finance, data processing, and applied programming. He also is a founder and writer at QuantAtRisk.com. He specializes in Python for finance and big data.</p>

<p>For a century, amateur radio operators or "hams" have built and operated personal radio stations for recreation, long-distance communication, self-education and public service. A decade ago the hobby appeared to be in terminal decline because of the near-universal availability of mobile Internet and smartphones, while today there are more licensed hams than ever before. </p>
<p>This talk follows one man's journey from talking around the world as a 14-year-old Boy Scout to his current project to bounce radio signals off the moon, describes how the evolution of radio during that time has affected hams, and explores the relationship between the appearance of the maker movement and the resurgence of amateur radio.</p>
<p>About Roland Turner: </p>
<p>Roland wants to live in a world where creating technology is seen as a form of recreation and expression, in addition to its more usual function as a way to earn a living. He is a founding member of HackerspaceSG, co-organiser of FOSSASIA's annual open technology summit, advisor and mentor to multiple startups at JFDI, and Labs Director at TrustSphere where he develops new applications of the company's technology. He learned to solder at age 7, built his first radio transmitter at age 10 and discovered amateur radio at age 14. He's an Australian who has lived in Singapore for 8 years who - when not living, eating and breathing technology - is also an avid dancer and runner.</p>
