To increase the interest in research this might be a good idea. Papers we love is a global community of programmers and engineers who regularly organize a meetup and talk about their favourite research papers.

Currently there is no Bhubaneswar chapter maybe we can apply for one. I'm not sure how difficult it actually is. I would need help from people interested in research.

Yeah, It will be a great move to increase the interest in research. It will also give an option to interact with other colleges in bhubaneswar on research.

The idea is great and seems feasible. I looked at the meetup events of Hyderabad chapter, and noticed an average attendance of 5-7, which is something I think we can achieve. We may be able to collaborate with other colleges and let other institutes be a part of such meetups. Its a feasible idea. We can work on it.

Hosting students from outside great idea 👍

You and Shivank should coordinate on this and keep me updated. Ayush can help too if he wants.

@shivank01 can you please post some update regarding this issue. I saw the repository you made, are we done with? What are the next steps we need to take for this?

As per PWL's page:

Have a chapter repository created within the Papers We Love organization: Open an issue on this repo requesting a chapter repo and telling us about yourself, who is helping you out, where we can find you online (twitter, etc) and where you're planning on starting the chapter. One of the Papers We Love administrators will get in touch with you and once everything is squared away will create the repo for your planned chapter. You will be added to a chapter-organizers team and given read / write access to the repo.

So we need to put up a issue here: https://github.com/papers-we-love/organizers/issues
and wait for their response. Let us go through other chapter request issues in order to understand what they want and expect, in order to write a good proposal. We can draft one in 3-4 days at max. But I suggest we do this at the later stages of the vacation, because we can not hold any sessions now. It would be bad to show a new chapter inactive for the first 2-3 months of its existence.

@palash25 @hdidwania I saw some of the the proposals and their responses. They are asking for atleast 2 organisers and ~15 members in the first meetup. Also, They want us to decide the place where all the future meetups wil be organised.

The place can be one of the AGs

Organizers can be any two of us.

We can also add first years that are interested to become members ask on slack lets see how many of them are.

We have the organizers and I guess we can expect a participation of 15 in the first one (I hope, the coding community of college will help with this). For the place, we can tell them that we would be conducting in the institute itself.

For long term goals, we need to get in touch with people involved in research, from our college, as well as other institutes, to make the chapter better. And maybe try to include research enthusiasts of different fields. The current organizing team seems to have a strong bias for ml and related fields.

Bias in the sense that we 3 or 4 of us primarily work on ML, and will tend to discuss more on that field. We can make the chapter activity diversified by including others who focus on other fields as well. That will bring more variance to the chapter, maybe, which would be good.

I tend to read a lot on distributed systems and blockchain. Even @IamRaviTejaG know quite a bit about blockchain so I think we need not worry about that. Also the first years might make our chapter a bit more diversified.

Also Saswat Satapathy and Shivani Singh are researchers in the field of Networking and Pratyush Samantray is there for Algorithms. I do have research interest in SDN as well.

Well, right. I guess the problem of diversification doesn't really exist. Cool then. We would come back on this around July, and hopefully have our first meet in August.

Sure, its the new way of networking routers and switches communication. Eventually all the communication services will adopt this software defined networking .

We have to choose any meetup group. We can either use meetup.com or facebook public group. As meetup.com is paid, we should go with facebook group. I will also talk to meetup.com if they can give us free trial for first few months. Meetup.com has an excellent RSVP system and a rich API which allows us to auto-generate the Upcoming meetups posts on paperswelove.org.

Good to go , I think meetup can provide us free trial for some months, after some months once set-up we can organise on FB groups,fb evens or if possible(as per funds) on meetup as well. 👍

We have now officially the papers-we-love chapter in bhubaneswar. You can check out our official repository here. After our first meetup our chapter name will be there on the official papers-we-love repository. I will be adding the other co-organizers by today.

We have to decide the date, theme, papers and speakers for our first meetup. Also, we have to let other colleges know that there is papers we love chapter in bhubaneswar. I think @nawedx can help us in this as he know people from other colleges as well.

I think Nawed can help. First of all we need to share about this to our college's community as well as to other college's. Lets give it 10-12 days to get some members who know about it, and then decide to hold the opening session around the mid of next month.

As per the repo.

  • Come share the ideas in an awesome academic/research paper with fellow engineers, programmers, and paper-readers.
  • Lead a session and show off code that you wrote that implements these ideas or just give us the lowdown about the paper.
  • Otherwise, just come, listen, and discuss.

Thank you guys for patience. I know I have been inactive for sometime. I am catching up. @shivank01 I have good contacts with some final year CETians. I am sure they will be interested in joining us in our Papers We Love sessions. Let's organize a session soon.
