Lords Institute of Engineering & Technology (Autonomous), Hyderabad · Guest lecture: Understanding NP-Completeness Through Reductions, a Problem-Centric Approach · Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Seminar Hall, Lords Institute, Hyderabad
Guest lecturer
Invited by Lords Institute of Engineering & Technology, Hyderabad, I gave a guest lecture on understanding NP-completeness through reductions. The session also launched Atlas Academy, the education arm of Atlas AI Labs.
We were honoured to be invited by the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Lords Institute of Engineering & Technology (Autonomous), Hyderabad, in association with CSI, to deliver a guest lecture on "Understanding NP-Completeness Through Reductions: A Problem-Centric Approach" on 5 May 2026.
I spoke as the resource person, as Co-Founder & CEO of Atlas AI Labs: how reductions let us reason about which problems are hard, built up one problem at a time rather than from definitions down.
The beginning of Atlas Academy
The session also marked the start of a new chapter: Atlas Academy, the education and training initiative of Atlas AI Labs. Its aim is simple: bring real-world AI research and industry experience directly into classrooms, bridging academia and industry with training in:
- Artificial Intelligence
- Agentic AI and multi-agent systems
- Generative AI
- Cybersecurity and OSINT
- Computer vision
- Networking and emerging technologies
At Atlas AI Labs, we believe the future of AI is built by empowering the next generation of engineers, researchers and innovators.
