Data Science master’s student Sai Kumar Kayala was awarded “Best Graduate Student Video” at this year’s Data Science Poster Fair. He was honored for his project, “DeepFake Detection Using Deep Learning”.

Instead of submitting posters for in-person evaluation, this year’s capstone projects were submitted via video. Each student prepared and submitted a five-minute video, highlighting their research under the guidance of their faculty advisor. All submissions were reviewed by a panel of faculty judges, and the winning projects were selected.
