Talk submissions are now closed.
You must submit the following details along with your proposal, or within 10 days of submission:
##About the conference
This year is the sixth edition of The Fifth Elephant. The conference is a renowned gathering of data scientists, programmers, analysts, researchers, and technologists working in the areas of data mining, analytics, machine learning and deep learning from different domains.
We invite proposals for the following sessions, with a clear focus on the big picture and insights that participants can apply in their work:
##Selection Process
We will notify you if we move your proposal to the next round or reject it. A speaker is NOT confirmed for a slot unless we explicitly mention so in an email or over any other medium of communication.
Selected speakers must participate in one or two rounds of rehearsals before the conference. This is mandatory and helps you to prepare well for the conference.
There is only one speaker per session. Entry is free for selected speakers.
##Travel grants
Partial or full grants, covering travel and accomodation are made available to speakers delivering full sessions (40 minutes) and workshops. Grants are limited, and are given in the order of preference to students, women, persons of non-binary genders, and speakers from Asia and Africa.
##Commitment to Open Source
We believe in open source as the binding force of our community. If you are describing a codebase for developers to work with, we’d like for it to be available under a permissive open source licence. If your software is commercially licensed or available under a combination of commercial and restrictive open source licences (such as the various forms of the GPL), you should consider picking up a sponsorship. We recognise that there are valid reasons for commercial licensing, but ask that you support the conference in return for giving you an audience. Your session will be marked on the schedule as a “sponsored session”.

Badoo is a data driven company with 340 million users across 190 countries it provides a number of apps and white label services across multiple platforms. Badoo crunches through around 23 billion events per day with 600 different types of events. Automated tracking a large number of events and reporting observations which do not conform to an expected pattern is the essential part of our data driven methodology.
Badoo had an Anomaly Detection prototype which was built using the strong competence of Data scientists involving complex algorithm. Prototype gave us the experience of many requirements which needs to be fulfilled to have a scalable and robust system.
Based on our learning with the prototype, Badoo Data Engineering team decided to build a new Anomaly Detection system with the following requirement,
In this talk, I would be sharing the learnings and the Architecture of our Anomaly detection system build using Hadoop, Spark and other Big Data Technologies.
Akash Mishra is currently working as a Data Engineer at Badoo Trading Limited with more than 6 years experience in building large scale big data application for various client of ThoughtWorks Technologies. He has production experience with various big data technologies like Spark,Hadoop, Mesos e.t.c. He is passionate developer and has deep interest in Distributed Systems. He has co-organised Big Data Meetup for Pune & NCR. He has already given various talks in meetups and Geek Night & contributed to Apache Spark project.
