Tutorials were held in conjunction with ICIT 2017 in Bhubaneswar, India. Sessions were organized by Silicon Institute of Technology in collaboration with the Orissa IT Society.
Topics covered evolutionary analysis and time series data, with a focus on applying machine learning and data science methods to bioinformatics problems.

Pre-conference tutorials form a natural extension of an international technology conference, offering participants an opportunity to deepen specific skillsets before the main programme begins. Held in conjunction with the broader event and organized through collaboration between academic institutions and regional professional societies, these sessions typically address focused themes that complement the conference tracks. In the bioinformatics tutorial described here, the emphasis is placed on applying machine learning and data science techniques to biological problems, including evolutionary analysis and time series data modelling. Tutorials of this kind serve as a bridge between general conference attendance and more specialized research, allowing attendees to engage with applied methods in a structured learning environment.
