SUSHRUTA SAMHITAAA CONFERENCE.pptx by SAKSHI ANAND SakshiAnand53
In the history of Ayurveda, Sushruta stands before Caraka. He practically applied Vaidika culture for treatment. His treatise translated into nine foreign languages apart from various Indian languages like Hindi, Bengali, Malayalam, etc., Sushruta is the most celebrated physician and surgeon in India. Though he practiced during the 5th century BC, many of his contributions to medicine and surgery preceded similar discoveries in the western world. Sushruta devotes a complete volume of his experiences to ophthalmologic diseases. In the Uttara Tantram, Sushruta enumerates a sophisticated classification of eye diseases complete with signs, symptoms, prognosis, and medical/surgical interventions. In particular, Sushruta describes what may have been the first extracapsular cataract surgery using a sharply pointed instrument with a handle fashioned into a trough. His ability to manage many common eye conditions of the time with limited diagnostic aids is a testament to his virtuosity.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

3. Acharya Kanad (600 BCE)
He was the pioneer expounder of realism,
law of causation and the atomic theory.
He classified all the objects of creation
into nine elements : earth, water, light,
wind, ether, time, space, mind and soul.

He said, "Every object of creation is made of
atoms which in turn connect with each other to
form molecules." 2500 years before John Dalton.
He further said

FOUNDER OF ATOMIC THEORY, believed to have been born
in Prabhas Kshetra near Dwarika in Gujarat, he propounded
"Vaisheshik Darshan"- one of six principal philosophies of India
Kanad also described the dimension and motion of atoms and
their chemical reactions with each other.
Seen by self, Shown to the others, and through the
experiments, done to know more details, lead the path to the Development.
4. The World's first university was established in Takshila in 700BC.
More than 10,500 students from all over the world (Babylonia, Greece, Syria,
Arabia and China) studied more than 60 subjects.
The University of Nalanda built in the 4th century BC was one of the greatest
university in ancient India and Once housed over 90 lakh books
5. Acharya Charak (600 BCE)FATHER OF MEDICINE.
Acharya Charak revealed through his innate
genius and enquiries the facts on the human
anatomy, embryology, pharmacology, blood
circulation and the diseases like diabetes,
tuberculosis, heart disease, etc. and also
emphasized the influence of diet & activity on
mind and body.
He also proved the correlation of spirituality and
physical health contributed greatly to diagnostic
and curative sciences.
He further prescribed the ethical charter for
medical practitioners two centuries prior to the
Hippocratic oath.
"Charak Samhita", considered to be an
Encyclopedia of Ayurveda embodies his
principles, diagoneses, and cures besides
medicinal qualities & functions of 100,000plants.
6. ACHARYA SUSHRUT (600 BCE)
He is venerated as the father of plastic surgery and
the science of anesthesia. When surgery was in its
infancy in Europe, Sushrut was performing Rhinoplasty
(restoration of a damaged nose) and other challenging
operations.
He prescribes treatment for twelve types of fractures &
six types of dislocations, and his details on human
embryology are simply amazing.
Sushrut used 125 types of surgical instruments
including scalpels, lancets, needles, Catheters and
rectal speculums. He has also described a number of
stitching methods; the use of horse's hair & fibers of
bark as thread .
"Sushrut Samhita," details 300 types of operations.
The ancient Indians were the pioneers in amputation,
caesarian and cranial surgeries.
A master surgeon, Sushrut details first ever surgery procedures in
"Sushrut Samhita," a unique encyclopedia of surgery.
7. ARYABHATT, Astronomer & Mathematician
Born in 476 CE in Kusumpur (Bihar), He
remapped the boundaries of mathematics
and astronomy.
In 499 CE, He wrote "Aryabhatiyam"
Formulated the process of calculating the
motion of planets and the time of eclipses.
First to proclaim “The earth is round,
it rotates on its axis, orbits the
sun and is suspended in space”
1000 years before Copernicus published
his heliocentric theory.
He is also acknowledged for calculating p
(Pi) to four decimal places: 3.1416 and the
sine table in trigonometry.
Most spectacular contribution was the
concept of zero without which modern
development in science & Technology was
not possible
8. NAGARJUNA (100 CE)
WIZARD OF CHEMICAL SCIENCE & Metallurgy
"Ras Ratnakar, Ras Hrudaya" and
"Rasendra mangal" are his renowned
contributions to the chemistry.
As the author of medical books like
"Arogyamanjari" and "Yogasar," he
also made significant contributions to
the field of curative medicine.
Indians knew of extraction of Iron,Gold
Silver,Zinc,Lead,Mercury & Copper from the
ores and also mastered technique of
making different Alloys from these
Metals such as Non rust Steel,Brass,
Bronze etc
gold (Au), silver (Ag), copper (Cu), iron (Fe) and lead (Pb)
Panchloha
His discoveries and inventions in chemistry &
metallurgy were phenomenal.
9. Clay Retort
Ref. Rasaratna samucchaya
Metallurgy – eco friendly Zawar process for Zinc (500 BC)
The furnace has two chambers.
One with inverted retorts
another with condensing
vessels under each retort.
Retort is filled with calcined
ore, charcoal,salt etc. A reed is
set in the middle and a funnel
like condenser fitted at the end
and sealed with the vessel.
Retort is heated to 1200o
C. to vaporise
zinc. At this temperature reed gets burnt
and other materials release CO to create
reducing atmosphere. Zinc trickles down
through a path created by burnt reed.
10. Historian Vincent Smith writes
“While we marveled at the skill shown by ancient artificers in forging the great
mass of Delhi pillar, we must give a still greater measure of admiration to the
forgotten craftsmen, who dealt so successfully in producing the still more
ponderous iron mass of the Dhar pillar monument”.
14 meters in height and 7 MT in weight
(3 pieces together), built by Bhoj
in (1000-1055AD) “is a largest
non corrosive Iron Pillar in the world”
Kollur Pillar
375CE
327 CE
11. Bhāskara-I (600-680 CE)
A Poet, Astronomer & Mathematician
First to write numbers in the Hindu-
Arabic decimal system with a circle
for zero, and gave a unique and
remarkably rational approximation of
the sine function in his commentary
on Aryabhata's work Āryabhaṭīya bhāṣya,
in 629 CE, also wrote Mahā bhāskarīya
and the Laghu bhāskarīya.
implies that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter
is ((4 + 100) × 8 + 62000)/20000 = 62832/20000 = 3.1416
12. Bhaskaracharya II (1114-1183 CE)
In his treatise "Siddhant Shiromani" he
writes on planetary positions, eclipses,
cosmography, mathematical techniques
and astronomical equipment.
In the "Surya Siddhant" he makes a
note on the force of gravity: "Objects
fall on earth due to a force of attraction
by the earth. Therefore, the earth,
planets, constellations, moon, and sun
are held in orbit due to this attraction."
500 years before Newton.
GENIUS IN ALGEBRA Born in Vijjadit (Jalgaon) in Maharastra,
his texts in Algebra, Arithmetic & Geometry, "Lilavati" and
"Bijaganita" got translated in several languages of the world
Also wrote texts on “Grahaganita” and “Goladhyaya”
13. Whatever I learnt from experts and whatever I confirmed by experimentation, only
that, I have included in this book and whatever could not be confirmed has not
been included in my book.
Further, he states that my student should reconfirm by performing experiment by
their own hands. Those who follow this is a true teacher and student.
All others are just Drama Actors.

Museum, in 1497,saw a three times bigger ship in
Jhanjibar and met its Gujarati owner named
“Skanda” with who’s help He came to India
In 1811, Lt. Walker writes that East India
company had an Indian ship “Daria Daulat”
which did not require maintenance for 87 years
He further proved statistically, the Indian ships
were much cheaper & better in quality than
English ships and advised East India Company
to use Indian ships only
Indian Trade & Shipping
1814 - British Government passed an act to ban
Indian ships and Indian sailors from visiting
British Ports
1863- Act was strictly implemented and heavy
taxes were levied on the goods from Indian Ships
to bring about the end the Indian Ship Industry.
