##About the conference and topics for submitting talks:
In 2016, The Fifth Elephant branched into a separate conference on Deep Learning. The Deep Learning Conference has grown in to a large community under the brand Anthill Inside.
Anthill Inside features talks, panels and Off The Record (OTR) sessions on current research, technologies and developments around Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Learning. Submit proposals for talks and workshops on the following topics:
##Perks for submitting proposals:
Submitting a proposal, especially with our process, is hard work. We appreciate your effort.
We offer one conference ticket at discounted price to each proposer, and a t-shirt.
We only accept one speaker per talk. This is non-negotiable. Workshops may have more than one instructor.
In case of proposals where more than one person has been mentioned as collaborator, we offer the discounted ticket and t-shirt only to the person with who the editorial team corresponded directly during the evaluation process.
##Target audience:
We invite beginner and advanced participants from:
to participate in Anthill Inside. At the 2018 edition, tracks will be curated separately for beginner and advanced audiences.
Developer evangelists from organizations which want developers to use their APIs and technologies for deep learning and AI should participate, speak and/or sponsor Anthill Inside.
##Format:
Anthill Inside is a two-day conference with two tracks on each day. Track details will be announced with a draft schedule in February 2018.
We are accepting sessions with the following formats:
##Selection criteria:
The first filter for a proposal is whether the technology or solution you are referring to is open source or not. The following criteria apply for closed source talks:
The criteria for selecting proposals, in the order of importance, are:
No one submits the perfect proposal in the first instance. We therefore encourage you to:
Our editorial team helps potential speakers in honing their speaking skills, fine tuning and rehearsing content at least twice - before the main conference - and sharpening the focus of talks.
##How to submit a proposal (and increase your chances of getting selected):
The following guidelines will help you in submitting a proposal:
To summarize, we do not accept talks that gloss over details or try to deliver high-level knowledge without covering depth. Talks have to be backed with real insights and experiences for the content to be useful to participants.
##Passes and honorarium for speakers:
We pay an honararium of Rs. 3,000 to each speaker and workshop instructor at the end of their talk/workshop. Confirmed speakers and instructors also get a pass to the conference and networking dinner. We do not provide free passes for speakers’ colleagues and spouses.
##Travel grants for outstation speakers:
Travel grants are available for international and domestic speakers. We evaluate each case on its merits, giving preference to women, people of non-binary gender, and Africans. If you require a grant, request it when you submit your proposal in the field where you add your location. Anthill Inside is funded through ticket purchases and sponsorships; travel grant budgets vary.
##Last date for submitting proposals is: 15 April 2018.
You must submit the following details along with your proposal, or within 10 days of submission:

In late 2017 we were wanting to do an academic project in the area of AI/ML. We did a literature review of chronic diseases and found that India is racing to be the Diabetes capital of the world. Then on, the core objective of our study became to predict Diabetes risk of an individual through a prediction module. To augment the prediction module, we trained a text analytics engine with knowledge of various aspects, all symptoms, possible prevention measures and daily management measures about the chronic diseases. This system accepts as input English language questions and replies in kind in human understandable language. We want the system to be made available to the population through Kiosks – KnowYourDiabeticRisk - at various Hospitals, Medical Centers, Public places.
