  "account": "Advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems rely heavily on mathematical principles, according to Reheena Nasrin of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). During the valedictory session of the \"Computation Science and Intelligent Engineering\" conference, Nasrin stressed that a robust mathematical foundation would continue to be vital for the progress of digital intelligence. The conference, organized by the Department of Mathematics at Siddhartha Academy of Higher Education, featured lectures by esteemed experts. Dr. G. Sobhalatha of Sri Krishnadevaraya University discussed 'Lexicographic Product Graph,' while Bukke Kiran Naik from the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Rourkela presented on 'Intelligent Thermodynamics,' focusing on data-driven systems optimization and energy-water nexus solutions. Over 200 research papers were presented by academics and researchers from various Indian universities, underscoring the event's impact on academic research and knowledge sharing. Certificates of appreciation were awarded to the presenters by the conference organizers. The event was attended by notable figures including Vice-Chancellor P. Venkateswara Rao, Pro-Vice-Chancellor A.V. Ratna Prasad, Dean D. Venkata Rao, and Registrar M. Ravichand. Participants included the Head of the Mathematics Department, senior faculty members, and students from the institution.",
