Minimization Problems Based On A Parametric Family Of Relative Entropies
(2017-08-21)We study minimization problems with respect to a one-parameter family of generalized relative entropies. These relative entropies, which we call relative -entropies (denoted I (P; Q)), arise as redundancies under mismatched ... -
Minimizing latency in data acquisition, distributed processing, storage and retrieval
Achieving low latency is of utmost importance in applications demanding real-time sensing and control as in cyber-physical systems. In this thesis, we explore three different facets of ensuring low latency in such systems. ... -
Mining Clickthrough Data To Improve Search Engine Results
(2015-02-06)In this thesis, we aim at improving the search result quality by utilizing the search intelligence (history of searches) available in the form of click-through data. We address two key issues, namely 1) relevance feedback ... -
miRNA-based regulation of Coxsackievirus B3 replication and pathogenesis
Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) is a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus known to cause acute myocarditis, pancreatitis, and aseptic meningitis. In many cases, the long-term impact of CVB3 infection-induced cell death ... -
MIST : Mlgrate The Storage Too
(2017-05-25)We address the problem of migration of local storage of desktop users to remote sites. Assuming a network connection is maintained between the source and destination after the migration makes it possible for us to transfer ... -
Mitigating Domain Shift via Self-training in Single and Multi-target Unsupervised Domain Adaptation
Though deep learning has achieved significant successes in many computer vision tasks, the state-of-the-art approaches rely on the availability of a large amount of labeled data for supervision, collection of which is ... -
A Mitsunobu-Michael Reaction Sequence to N-Heterocyclic Variants and Ti(III)-Mediated Synthesis of Terpenoids and N-Fused Indoles
The research work delineates a flexible and novel route for the diastereoselective construction of diversely substituted N-heterocyclic variants as valuable scaffolds for natural products and pharmaceuticals, starting from ... -
Mixed Alkali Effect in Oxyfluoro Vanadate Glasses And The Effect of Rare Earth Ions on Oxyfluoro Tellurite Glasses - A Spectroscopic Study
(2017-09-20)The main motivation of this thesis is to study the long standing problem of mixed alkali effect (MAE) in oxyfluro vanadate glass systems from the point of view of structural arrangement and to investigate the effect of two ... -
Mixed Norm Estimates in Dunkl Setting and Chaotic Behaviour of Heat Semigroups
(2018-01-03)This thesis is divided into three parts. In the first part we study mixed norm estimates for Riesz transforms associated with various differential operators. First we prove the mixed norm estimates for the Riesz transforms ... -
Mixed Variational Approaches in Nonlinear Continuum Mechanics and Discretization by Finite Element Exterior Calculus
Numerical solution techniques for nonlinear elasticity have been an active area of research for a while. Right from the early days, it was recognized that constructing well-performing FE approximations for nonlinear ... -
Mixing Enhancement Studies on Supersonic Elliptic Sharp Tipped Shallow (ESTS) Lobed Nozzles
(2017-11-22)Rapid mixing and spreading of supersonic jets are two important characteristics in supersonic ejectors, noise reduction in jets and fuel mixing in supersonic combustion. It helps in changing the acoustic and thermal signature ... -
An MLIR-Based High-Level Synthesis Compiler for Hardware Accelerator Design
The emergence of machine learning, image and audio processing on edge devices has motivated research towards power-efficient custom hardware accelerators. Though FPGAs are an ideal target for custom accelerators, the ... -
