Hari Murthy, PhD., finished his Ph.D. on novel anticorrosion materials at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. He is an assistant professor in the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Bangalore, India. His research interests include data engineering and material science. He has served as part of the program committee for several international conferences organized by the university. Vinay Jha Pillai, PhD., is an assistant professor in the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Kengeri Campus, Bangalore, India. His primary research is in the early detection of breast cancer using optical imaging and holds two patents related in the subject. He is also exploring the domain of sensors for extracting coating parameters, especially for thermal barrier coatings which have a wide application in the field of corrosion and biofouling inhibitors. Kukatlapalli Pradeep Kumar, PhD., at an associate professor and data science program coordinator at Christ University, Bangalore, India. One of his research areas is in the field of data science for corrosion engineering where novel methods for corrosion inhibition based on data science techniques for correlating simulation predictions and molecular structures are in high demand. Matthew Cowan, PhD., is a faculty member in the Department of Chemical and Processing Engineering at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. As a materials chemist, his main research interests are in the application of ionic liquids and ionic polymers for anti-fouling applications as well as efficient process designs for industrial gas separations. He is the author of more than 30 publications.
