Project Title:  The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in Sri Lanka: ‘Harmonious World’ Vis-à-vis Liberal International Order?
 
Funding Organization: BITS Pilani
 
Principal Investigator (PI): Prof. Veena Ramachandran
 
Amount: INR  2 Lakh, Duration: 2020-22
 
Brief Description of the Project: The proposed research project intends to define and explore the Chinese conceptualization of the Harmonious World and its characteristics as a theoretical framework to comprehend China’s bilateral engagement with countries like Sri Lanka. The purpose is to understand the nature of the Harmonious World and investigate whether the Chinese concept of a Harmonious World attempts to redefine/challenge the normative underpinnings of sovereignty, paving the way for a hierarchical or Sino-centric global order, and, if so, how. Accordingly, this study examines China-Sri Lanka engagement in the post-civil war scenario, and most of this engagement has been attributed to the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).
 
Project Title: Development, Deployment, and Evaluation of LLM-based Educational Tools for educators and students in Higher Education and K-12 settings of rural and underprivileged sections of India
 
Funding Organization: BITS Pilani

Co-PI: Prof. Veena Ramachandran

Amount: INR  20 Lakh, Ongoing

Brief Description of the Project:

This study aims to explore the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) in higher education and K-12 education sectors in India. The project will identify challenges in delivering personalised learning experiences and assess the effectiveness of LLM-based tools in addressing these issues. The study will involve qualitative and quantitative methods, including interviews, focus groups, and pilot deployments in selected communities. The anticipated outcomes include improved student engagement, enhanced learning experiences, and culturally adapted educational materials. The findings will contribute to bridging gaps in digital learning accessibility, particularly in underprivileged and resource-constrained settings.

 

 

 
 

Project Title: Wearable Visual Assistant with Semantic Feature Recognition and Recommendation System for the Blind and Visually Impaired (BVI) individuals

Funding Organization: AutoNxt Automation Pvt. Ltd., Mumbai, India

Principal Investigator (PI) : Dr. Virendra Singh Shekhawat

Co-Investigator (Co-PI) : Dr. Avinash Gautam

Amount: INR 22.50 Lakh, Duration: 2021-2025 

Brief Description of the Project:  Design and Development of an end-to-end system, which is a wearable visual assistant that will assist BVI person to achieve orientation and navigation in a large unknown GPS denied indoor environment. An integral component of the system will be recognition and detection of semantic environmental features to improve system efficiency in terms of accurate navigation, search and recommendation provided to the BVI person.
