• Representing Networks: Centrality, Node Embeddings, Community Outliers and Graph Representation 

  Bandyopadhyay, Sambaran

  Networks are ubiquitous. We start our technical work in this thesis by exploring the classical concept of node centrality (also known as influence measure) in information networks. Like clustering, node centrality is also ...

• Algorithms for Stochastic Optimization, Statistical Estimation and Markov Decision Processes 

  Kamanchi, Chandramouli

  Stochastic approximation deals with the problem of finding zeros of a function expressed as an expectation of a random variable. In this thesis we propose convergent algorithms for problems in optimization, statistical ...

• Mechanism of β-catenin regulation by IGFBP2: Role in Glioblastoma progression 

  Verma, Brijesh Kumar

  Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) were initially identified as high affinity binders of Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs). There are six IGFBPs which regulate the bioavailability and functions of IGFs ...

• Extra-cellular Polysaccharides and Microbially Induced Carbonate Cementation Using Indigenous Microbes in Cattle Manure 

  Sukumar, Reshma

  Soft soils are composed of large portions of silts and clay and are characterized by low strength and high compressibility owing to their high-water content. Biocementation techniques are emerging as a strong alternative ...

• A Study on Counterproductive Work Behavior, Discrete Negative Emotions and Organisation Control Environment 

  Savitha, J

  Organisational scholars are increasingly focusing on employee behaviors, while traditionally, the emphasis was more on job performance as an only indicator of employee’s contribution to organisation goals. Employee ...

• Thermo-Mechanical Processing of Third Generation γ – Titanium Aluminides 

  Bibhanshu, Nitish

  The γ – TiAl based intermetallics are characterized by unique combination of the properties which make these materials amenable for the application in gas turbines. However, due to problems related to limited plasticity ...

• Thermal Turbomachinery Design for Closed Thermal Cycles and Multiple Fluids 

  Vijayaraj, K

  Closed-cycle gas turbines can complement conventional power conversion systems due to their potential for improved efficiencies, compact system layouts, and the ability to exploit non-fossil fuel energy sources which leads ...

• Unified Control based Adaptable Converters with a Fractional Harmonic Inter Converter Signalling channel for Dynamic tracking of PCC and Managing Multiple Converters Connected in Parallel in a Microgid 

  Shan, S

  The increasing demand of energy over the past few years as well as the growing environmental concerns have forced the mankind to look out for non conventional sources of energy such as solar, wind etc. Consequently a ...

• Embedding Networks: Node and Graph Level Representations 

  Aggarwal, Manasvi

  Graph neural networks gained significant attention for graph representation and classification in the machine learning community. For graph classification, different pooling techniques are introduced, but none of them has ...

• Thin Films of TiO2 by MOCVD : Precursor Development, Film Growth and Microstructure, Optical and Electrical Properties 

  Gupta, Pranav

  TiO2 is a well-known and very attractive material owing to its chemical stability, biocompatibility, and remarkable electrical and optical properties. Indeed, it exhibits a high dielectric constant and resistivity, a high ...
