This highly anticipated event is set to bring together top minds from academia, industry, and research to provide participants with cutting-edge AI knowledge and practical skills, reinforcing Nepal’s position as an emerging AI hub in the Global South.

Why ANAIS 2024 Stands Out

Since its inception, ANAIS has received over 1,750 applications from more than 20 countries, establishing itself as a premier AI training program. With a track record of training 550+ participants, the program is designed to cater to senior undergraduates, graduates, PhD students, faculty members, and industry professionals alike.

Renowned speakers and researchers from globally acclaimed institutions such as the University of Oxford, Imperial College London, ETH Zurich, and NAAMII have previously enriched the school with their expertise.

The program’s unique blend of foundational AI concepts and advanced applications makes it indispensable for anyone aiming to excel in AI-driven careers.

What ANAIS 2024 Offers

The 11-day program combines lectures, hands-on workshops, and opportunities for community building. Key features include:

Core AI Topics: Neural Networks, Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Large Language Models.

Emerging Trends: Generative AI, Low-resource AI, Efficient AI, Trustworthy AI, and Geometric Deep Learning.

Real-world Applications: Insights into AI’s transformative impact in healthcare, agriculture, climate, business, and finance.

Networking Opportunities: Social events like a day hike and gala dinner to foster collaboration and peer connections.

Participants will leave equipped to thrive in industries where AI is reshaping job markets and driving innovation.

Who Should Apply?

Applications are open to students, academics, and professionals worldwide. To maximize learning, participants should have foundational knowledge in:

Mathematics: Calculus, Linear Algebra, Probability, and Statistics.

Programming: Prior experience is recommended.

Scholarships are available for full-time students not employed in the industry. Applications from women and minority groups are strongly encouraged to promote diversity.
