iiit-Hyderabad.

Hi All,

I just came from hyderabad before few hours, We were having 'very tight schedule' on both days (13-14) and No more time to meet friends and all, so regreting if i didn't meet you.

mostly we were at IIIT International Institute of Information Technology (www.iiit.ac.in), and
come to know that IJCAI-07 ( www.ijcai-07.org) was hosted by IIIT and completed on just 12th Jan 2007, as ijcai is all about AI (including topic about speech/mm and related future technologies) , we also got 2 CD's (from iiit-h with help of Prof. Bagga) having very good (although i have to accept that I didn't understand some stuff on machine learning and some other complex algos, Its may be out of scope, but few of my frnds are in ML and related stuff)
