##About the conference and topics for submitting talks:
The Fifth Elephant is rated as India’s best data conference. It is a conference for practitioners, by practitioners. In 2018, The Fifth Elephant will complete its seventh edition.
The Fifth Elephant is an evolving community of stakeholders invested in data in India. Our goal is to strengthen and grow this community by presenting talks, panels and Off The Record (OTR) sessions that present real insights about:

##Target audience:
You should attend and speak at The Fifth Elephant if your work involves:
##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.
##Format:
The Fifth Elephant 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 honorarium 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. The Fifth Elephant is funded through ticket purchases and sponsorships; travel grant budgets vary.
##Last date for submitting proposals is: 31 March 2018.
You must submit the following details along with your proposal, or within 10 days of submission:

Data Visualization is an essential step for developing data driven solution. With proper visualization, we get direct insights that lead us towards further stages of model development. While performing visualization in python, we have libraries like Matplotlib, seaborn for our help. But they come with certain limitations. Recently developed libraries with interactive plotting options, are taking up their place slowly. Bokeh is one of them. It is interactive and data-driven, suitable for real-time visualization.
In this talk, I am going to present a complete introduction to Bokeh with coded examples for data science enthusiasts.
The outline of the planned talk consists of the following module.
Basic Introduction
A complete introduction to bokeh, how to use and other relevant information.
Why Bokeh
why it is a better choice over other libraries.
Functions of Interest
1. charts function 2. figure function
PLotting a simple plot with charts function
A Simple Line Plot with Figure function
Multiple Glyphs in a Single Plot
Working with error-reports
Different type of glyphs
Scatter Markers,
NaN Plotting (Handling missing data),
Bar Plot,
Single Patch,
Multiple Patches
Special type of Glyphs
Segments,
Wedges,
Time-Series plotting
Handling Categorical Data
Mapping of Geo Locations
Annotations
Next Places to look for
This section provides a complete list of resources which will help the attandees to take their bokeh knowledge to the next level .
1.Python installed laptop with necessary libraries like numpy,pandas etc.
2.Familiarity with jupyter notebook.
3.bokeh installed with python (https://bokeh.pydata.org/en/latest/docs/installation.html)
I am a MTech student at Dept of CSE, IIT Hyderabad, Currently working in the area of Machine Learning and Data Mining. My research interest revolves around various aspects of social-network analysis.
I have experiences of using sophisticated Data Science libraries in python and always interested towards new technologies that keep coming every now and then, and help us to understand the problem statement more clearly.
