Identifying key determinants underlying variable efficacy of BCG substrains against Pulmonary TB.
Protection conferred by BCG vaccine against adult pulmonary TB ranges from 0–80% based on large, well-controlled field trials. This variability is highly significant (P < 0.0001) and is regarded as being indicative of true ... -
Identifying Method Memoization Opportunities in Java Programs
(2017-12-13)Memorization of a method is a commonly used re-factoring wherein developer modules the code of a method to save return values for some or all incoming parameter values. Whenever a parameter-tuple is received for the second ... -
III- Nitride Thin Films and Nanostructures on Si(111) by Plasma Assisted Molecular Beam Epitaxy
This thesis focuses on studying heterostructures of GaN, Silicon and AlN. GaN nanostructures are grown on bare Si (111) with and without a GaN buffer layer and GaN film was grown on an AlN layer. Apart from the material ... -
Image Reconstruction Based On Hilbert And Hybrid Filtered Algorithms With Inverse Distance Weight And No Backprojection Weight
(2014-07-16)Filtered backprojection (FBP) reconstruction algorithms are very popular in the field of X-ray computed tomography (CT) because they give advantages in terms of the numerical accuracy and computational complexity. Ramp ... -
Image Representation using Attribute-Graphs
(2017-12-13)In a digital world of Flickr, Picasa and Google Images, developing a semantic image represen-tation has become a vital problem. Image processing and computer vision researchers to date, have used several di erent representations ... -
Image Structures For Steganalysis And Encryption
(2013-10-21)In this work we study two aspects of image security: improper usage and illegal access of images. In the first part we present our results on steganalysis – protection against improper usage of images. In the second part ... -
IMAGINE : An Intelligent Electonic Marketplace
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-01-16)In recent times, the Internet revolution has spawned numerous innovative enterprises-virtual companies, and electronic markets. Electronic markets (or digital markets) are scalable web-based platforms for buyers, sellers, ... -
Imaging and Spectral Studies of Solar type I Noise Storms at Metric Wavelengths
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-01)Type I noise storms constitute a sizeable fraction of the active-Sun component of solar radiation at meter wavelengths. The storms occur over a prolonged duration as intense, narrow-band spikes, superposed on a low-intensity ... -
Imidazole and NHC-Carbene based Coordination Architectures and Their Applications
Modern-day chemistry demands novel molecular materials having aesthetically pleasing structures along with fascinating chemical and physical properties. New synthetic strategies have been applied for structural modulation ... -
Imitation Learning Techniques for Robot Manipulation
Robots that can operate in unstructured environments and collaborate with humans play a major role in raising productivity and living standards as societies age. Unlike the robots currently used in industrial settings for ... -
Immune Evasion and Survival Strategies of Mycobacterium : Role for Host Signaling Pathway-Mediated Micro RNAs and Epigenetic Regulation
(2018-05-09)The genus Mycobacterium represents more than 120 species of bacteria including the pathogenic M. tuberculosis, the etiological agent of tuberculosis. The host mounts a robust inflammatory and cell-mediated response to ... -
Immune-metabolic response of Caenorhabditis elegans to Enterococcus faecalis
Immune response to pathogens is energetically expensive to the host. In this study, we show that Caenorhabditis elegans exposed for 8 hours to pathogenic Gram-positive bacteria, Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus ... -

(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-29)Investigations detailed in this thesis constitue a part of continuing programme of research work undertaken in this laboratory on vitamin binding proteins. Avidin from the chicken egg white, streptavidin &om the bacterium ... -
Immunological consequences of host signaling-regulated epigenetic modification(s) during mycobacterial pathogenesis
Introduction: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the principal etiological agent of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), continues to co-evolve with the human population making itself one of the most potent infectious killer in the ... -
Immunological insights into Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Signaling: Implications for host-pathogen interactions
Infectious diseases account for a large proportion of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The major global efforts lie in effectively enhancing the health span of infected individuals and more importantly, curbing infection ... -
Immunomodulatory Activity of Glycodelin : Implications in Allograft Rejection
(2018-06-15)Glycodelin, a homodimeric glycoprotein belonging to the lipocalin superfamily, is synthesised predominantly by the cells of the reproductive system of certain primates including humans. Of the four different known glycoforms ... -
Immunomodulatory effects of 7-hydroxy frullanolide, a plant-based sesquiterpene lactone, in inhibiting immune cell responses and roles of disease and vaccination outcomes on Covid-19 mortality
Immunomodulation is a process by which the immune response of the host is either enhanced or suppressed due to various factors which either protects or makes the host more susceptible to particular diseases. Immunomodulators ... -
