Selection Process

🔹 Review of submissions for feedback – All submitted talks will be reviewed by the organizing team. Constructive feedback may be provided to help refine proposals.

🔹 Pipeline for OSAI selection – Reviewed submissions will be considered as part of the selection funnel for OSAI Blr meet-up.

🔹 Curated selection – The final selection will be made by the curator, Ramkrishna Reddy, who will evaluate reviewed talks and choose the most relevant and impactful ones for OSAI.

🔍 How the review process works

Your submission will be reviewed by two reviewers via online sessions.
✅ They will evaluate:

  • Real-world effectiveness – Did the AI solution actually solve the problem? Share demonstrable success metrics.
  • Technical depth – Novelty, feasibility, and implementation details.
  • Lessons learned – What worked, what didn’t, and what could be improved.
    ✅ A written summary of the feedback will be published after every review.

The review sessions are held online; past speakers (such as AI practitioners, researchers, and engineers) give valuable, expert feedback before the presenter showcases their work at major conferences and meet-ups, or publishes he work as a paper or a blog.


☑️ How to prepare for a review

Define the problem clearly – what issue are you solving?
Share key insights & lessons – Help others learn from your work!
Provide evidence – Show real-world results, case studies, or demos.

💡 Before the review

  • Create a mind map/flow diagram – explain your approach visually.
  • Prepare a 10-15 min interactive presentation – keep it crisp, like an extended flash talk.
  • Slides are not necessarily required – just clarity and engagement.
  • Be ready to dive into code/architecture details if needed.

🔍 Reviews are collaborative, educational, and designed to make your work even better!

The Emergence of Multi-Agent Systems in Computer Vision: A New Era of Creative Collaboration

The core advantage of multi-agent systems in computer vision lies in their ability to divide complex tasks into smaller, manageable sub-tasks, allowing for more efficient and scalable processing. This paradigm fosters collaboration, where agents can exchange information and update each other’s knowledge, resulting in a more refined outcome, keeping every agrnt in sync. more

[Know your Laws in Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita]

{LLMs are well equipped to solve tasks that require world knowledge. There is a considerable gap between frontier LLMs on English language vs the best language models we have in Indic languages. While there is considerable ongoing effort towards merging this gap, a more practical and scalable solution approach comes through a well designed alignment: where an existing LLM is stratetically tuned f… more

Making GenAI Testable: From Prompt to Production

Describe your session in 2 paragraphs GenAI is transforming the way we build and deploy software — but beneath the surface of working POCs lies a critical challenge: can we test these systems? In traditional software, test-driven development is a given. But with LLMs’ probabilistic outputs and evolving prompts, most AI systems today ship without clear test strategies. This session will look into … more
