Content Distribution in Social Groups
(2018-01-29)We study Social Groups consisting of self-interested inter-connected nodes looking for common content. We can observe Social Groups in various socio-technological networks, such as Cellular Network assisted Device-to-Device ... -
Content-Based Texture Analysis and Synthesis for Low Bit-Rate Video Coding Using Perceptual Models
Determining perceptually irrelevant and redundant information from human point of view is one of the fundamental problems today that is limiting the performance of current video compression algorithms. The performance of ... -
Context Dependent Effects of the Transforming Growth Factor-beta Signaling and Role Played by WNT4 in the Activation of Fibroblasts
(2018-07-26)Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily of cytokines comprises of several members, which can broadly be sub-divided into three classes [TGF-βs, Activin/Nodal, and Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs)]. Most members ... -
A Context-Aware Neural Approach for Explainable Citation Link Prediction
Citations have become an integral part of scientific publications. They play a crucial role in supporting authors’ claims throughout a scientific paper. However, citing related work is a challenging and laborious task, ... -
Continuous Beam of Laser-Cooled Ytterbium Atoms for Precision Measurements
(2017-11-22)What if an elementary particle such as an electron had an intrinsic electric dipole moment (EDM)? Existence of such an EDM would be an indication of time-reversal symmetry violation in the laws of Physics. The Standard ... -
A Continuous Optimization Approach To Protein Design With Structural And Functional Constraints
(2013-04-30)We have developed a novel computational approach to functional de novo protein design using gradient based continuous optimization techniques. Motivated by many engineering applications in which a cost function is optimized ... -
Continuous-Curvature Path Planning Using Four Parameter Logistic Curves
Autonomous vehicles perform time and cost effective operations with minimal or no human effort and hence, have the potential to be used in civilian, commercial and military applications. Pertaining to these applications, ... -
Continuous-Wave Supercontinuum Generation using Cascaded Raman Fiber Lasers
This thesis explains architecture and techniques to generate high power, CW supercontinuum laser sources using standard Silica fibers as the nonlinear medium, pumped using high power CW Yb doped fiber lasers. Unlike the ... -
Continuum Analysis of Cavitation Induced Failure and Tensile Deformation Response of Metallic Glasses & Nanoglasses
Metallic glasses (MGs), which are metals solidified in an amorphous state, have shown attractive mechanical properties such as high strength (up to 5 GPa), yield strain (around 2%) and good corrosion resistance. They ... -
Continuum Modeling Of Adhesive Interaction Based On Interatomic Potentials
(2018-01-12)Adhesion between solid bodies plays a prominent role in a wide variety of situations ranging from tribological applications to dust coagulation initiating the formation of planets. It can be due to various reasons like ... -
Contractivity, Complete Contractivity and Curvature Inequalities
Let ???A\| \cdot \|_A???A? be a norm on Cm\mathbb{C}^mCm given by the formula ?(z1,…,zm)?A=?z1A1+?+zmAm?\|(z_1, \ldots, z_m)\|_A = \|z_1 A_1 + \cdots + z_m A_m\|?(z1?,…,zm?)?A?=?z1?A1?+?+zm?Am?? for some choice of an ... -
Contrastive linguistic analysis of English, Russian and Telugu with special and restricted reference to the field of algebra
The present work is an attempt at studying mathematical terms and concepts in English, Russian, and Telugu, with special reference to the field of degree-level Algebra, from a contrastive linguistic perspective. The purpose ... -
Contributions on Index Coding, Coded Caching and Gradient Coding
In this thesis, we cover three major areas, namely, index coding, coded caching and gradient coding. We begin by considering unicast index coding problems where a server broadcasts coded messages over a noiseless channel, ... -
Contributions to the chemistry of disulfur monoxide
Disulfur monoxide is an unstable gaseous species. Even at comparatively lower temperatures, it undergoes decomposition into sulfur dioxide and elemental sulfur. When dissolved in chilled carbon tetrachloride, the solution ... -
Contributions to the chemistry of metal sulphide metal sulphate systems
The results show that sulphur trioxide acts as an oxidising agent in these reactions. It oxidises the sulphide to sulphate. During this process it is reduced to sulphur dioxide, and at higher temperatures (360–500?°C) even ... -
Contributions to the chemistry of phosphorus fluorine compounds and a few complex fluorides
The thesis incorporates the results of the investigations on (1) Oxidative reactions of sulphur trioxide, iodine monochloride and nitryl chloride with phosphorus trifluoride and thiophosphoryl fluoride, (2) Reactions of ... -
Contributions to the chemistry of sulphur flourine compounds
The present status of knowledge about the chemistry of sulphur oxyhalides and sulphur–nitrogen–fluorine compounds has been reviewed in the introductory chapter. With this background, the present investigations have been ... -
Contributions to the chemistry of thiophosphoryl fluoride
The present status of knowledge about the chemistry of thiophosphoryl fluoride has been reviewed in the introductory chapter. Taking this background into consideration, a line of investigation has been undertaken which is ...
