Dr. T. Adilakshmi

Artificial Intelligence

BayesPy

BayesPy provides tools for Bayesian inference with Python. The user constructs a model as a Bayesian network observes data and runs posterior inference. The goal is to provide a tool which is efficient flexible and extendable enough for expert use but also accessible for more casual users

Image Processing

OpenCV

OpenCV provides tools for image processing using C++ and Python. The goal is to provide image processing tool to the students and faculty to work on processing images which includes linear and non-linear image filtering, geometrical image transformations (resize, affine and perspective warping, generic table-based remapping), color space conversion, histograms etc.

R.Sateesh Kumar

Compiler Construction

ANTLR

ANTLR, ANother Tool for Language Recognition, is a language tool that provides a framework for constructing recognizers, interpreters, compilers, and translators from grammatical descriptions containing actions in a variety of target languages. ANTLR provides excellent support for tree construction, tree walking, translation, error recovery, and error reporting.

R.Sateesh Kumar

Automata, languages and Computaion

JFLAP

JFLAP defines a finite automaton (FA) M as the quintuple M = (Q, Σ, δ, qs, F) this definition includes both deterministic finite automata (DFAs), which we will be discussing shortly, and nondeterministic finite automata (NFAs). Q is a finite set of states {qi | i is a nonnegative integer}
Σ is the finite input alphabet
δ is the transition function, δ : D → 2Q where D is a finite subset of Q × Σ*
qs (is member of Q) is the initial state
F (is a subset of Q) is the set of final states

S Vinay Kumar

Web programming and Services

Plickers

Plickers is a tool that allows us to collect instant multiple-choice responses from students, without requiring them to have mobile phones, computers, or tablets. This was utilized in the WPS classroom to perform assessment of the learning after each unit.

Internet of Things

NodeRed, Tinkercad

Node-RED is a programming tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services.  Node Red was utilized to teach MQTT Publish and MQTT Subscribe experiments to the students.
Tinkercad to teach Arduino Uno programming to the students without actually requiring students to carry the Arduino uno board and components.
