The programs are implemented using C++ or C language.

Object Oriented Programming Lab
The major motivating factor in the invention of Object Oriented approach is to remove difficulties encountered in the procedural approach. It ties data more closely to the functions that operate on it and protects it from modification of outside function. Functions of one object can be accessed by the functions of other object. Windows platform is used to implement static members and methods, friend function, operator overloading, dynamic memory allocation, copy constructor, assignment operator overloading, destructor, linked list, sorting techniques, exception handling and prim’s algorithm using C++.

About the Lab
This lab is a centralized hub for development teams to seamlessly build, deploy, and operate machine learning solutions at scale. It is designed to cover the end-to-end machine learning lifecycle from data processing and experimentation to model training and deployment.

What is Machine Learning?
Machine Learning is a science that enables machines (especially computers) to learn from environments and make their own decisions.

In our Machine Learning Laboratory (MLL) we carry out research and develops different theoretical foundations for machine learning such as:

• Reinforcement Learning, Deep Learning, Statistical Learning Theory, Multi-agent Systems, Game Theory, and Mechanism Design, Blockchains, Explainable and Fair AI.
• How machines and multi-agent systems should help in planning activities by learning from environments
• How learning gets affected if different machine learning and multi-agent systems algorithms are trying to compete instead of cooperating
• How machines should learn in the presence of a noisy environment or partial supervision
• Role of deep learning in planning, reinforcement learning, AI in game theory, blockchains and their applications
