Data Science

Popular courses offered on SWAYAM-NPTEL range from Data Science, Electrical Vehicles to Introduction to Machine Learning taught by faculty from IITs and IISc. These courses are free of cost.

Volunteers interested in astronomy and curious about celestial objects have helped NASA find a super giant planet outside our solar system. This exoplanet is three times the size of Jupiter and located about 379 light-years away from Earth.

An international team of scientists has produced the most detailed 3D map of the universe yet, with astrophysicists unveiling details of the first 7.5 million galaxies out of 35 million. The stunning image shows the cosmic web of galaxies going back billions of light-years. And, this is only the beginning of the project, which is seven months old.

Scientists from the Harvard-Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics (CfA) have detailed the last major merger of the Milky Way in a recent paper published in The Astrophysical Journal.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, which was launched on Christmas Day, had begun its first mid-course correction burn on December 25 at 7:50pm EST (6.20am IST on December 26). This burn is one of two time-sensitive milestones, the first being the deployment of solar arrays which occurred shortly after its launch.

The scholarship will aid 100 students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds who are pursuing online BSc courses from IIT Madras. The last date to apply for the course and the scholarship is December 21.

Parker Solar Probe, one of the most ambitious missions launched by NASA, has become the first spacecraft ever to pass through the Sun's atmosphere, venturing briefly into a region known as the corona.

Sector-wise, Core Engineering and Technology has recorded the highest placement offers (42 per cent), followed by Data Science and Analytics (19 per cent) and Information Technology and Software Development (18 per cent)

Not a day passes without a fascinating snippet on the ethical challenges created by "black box" AI systems. These use machine learning to figure out patterns within data and make decisions often without a human giving any moral basis for how to do it

NASA's new laser technology is finally space-bound. After much anticipation and a two-year delay, the Laser Communications Relay Demonstration (LCRD) was launched today (December 8) at 5:19am EST. According to NASA's social media updates, the LCRD was launched from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on an Atlas V rocket of the United Lau...

DNA can be described as the molecule that stores all the genetic instructions needed to shape every living organism. "That's a lot of information, and we have a copy of all that information in every single cell in our body," Dr. Keith EJ Tyo said.

A team of researchers used DeepMind's AI to discover a surprising connection between algebraic and geometric invariant knots, establishing a completely new theorem in the field.

NASA will test its new laser communication technology at 2pm IST on December 5, which is aimed at speeding up space communications.

Just a day after NASA scientists said that they have found 301 new exoplanets, astronomers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have stated that they identified 366 new exoplanets using data from the Kepler space telescope.

A new deep learning method has added a whopping 301 exoplanets to the total tally. These planets were added to the already validated 4,569 planets which are orbiting several distant stars. The additions were made with the help of a deep neural method called ExoMiner.
