Satya Prakash BSc, MSc

Satya is an Artificial Intelligence Researcher and a Data Scientist. His career began as a Statistician and has worked for several companies including Insight Centre for Data Analytics, Kansatek and ANSR Source. He has also worked with researchers from different areas of data science such as time series analysis expert, computer vision expert and AI expert. 

He has an MSc degree in Computing (Data Analytics) and a Bachelors degree in Computer Science and Engineering. He is currently working as a Research Assistant at Insight Centre for Data Analytics.

Having more than five years of experience in education industries, he has trained more than 100 students in mathematics, statistics, computer programming, machine learning and AI. 

Why should I enrol?

Deep learning has shown its success in many areas including computer vision, speech and audio processing, natural language processing, robotics, bioinformatics and chemistry, video games, search engines, online advertising and finance.

Deep learning is a particular kind of machine learning technique that allows computer systems to improve with experience and data and achieves great power and flexibility by learning to represent the world as a nested hierarchy of concepts.

In recent years, deep learning has seen tremendous growth in its popularity and usefulness, due in large to more powerful computers, larger datasets and techniques to train deeper networks.

What jobs will this programme prepare me for?

The world has more than 3.6 billion images searched, almost 500 million tweets are tweeted, 300 hours of videos uploaded and 5 billion videos are watched on the internet every single day. Such data has become very useful and crucial to understand, analyse, pre-process and predict humans’ behaviour for companies ranging from small scale to tech giants and multinational companies. While the data is big and the demand of these skills is very high, the industries are lagging with human resources possessing such advanced skills. Dublin, colloquially known as the Silicon Valley of Europe, has offices of Google, Amazon, IBM, Intel and other software companies where deep learning is still number one technology.

The Professional Diploma in Deep Learning will prepare you for jobs in the field of Computer Vision Engineer, Machine Vision Engineer, Text Mining Engineer, Data Scientist and Research and development centres.
