On a Divide-and-Conquer Approach for Sensor Network Localization
(2018-08-20)Advancement of micro-electro-mechanics and wireless communication have proliferated the deployment of large-scale wireless sensor networks. Due to cost, size and power constraints, at most a few sensor nodes can be equipped ... -
On a Few Non-Classical Perspectives in Solid Mechanics
Postulates in solid mechanics can be broadly classified into three groups describing the geometry of a configuration, mechanical equilibrium and thermodynamics of the deformation process. The geometry defined on a configuration ... -
On an ODE Associated to the Ricci Flow
(2018-04-18)We discuss two topics in this talk. First we study compact Ricci-flat four dimensional manifolds without boundary and obtain point wise restrictions on curvature( not involving global quantities such as volume and diameter) ... -
On Applications of 3D-Warping and An Analysis of a RANSAC Heuristic
In recent years communication of the scene geometry is gaining importance. With development of technologies such as head mounted displays and Augmented Reality (AR) the need for efficient 3D scene communication is becoming ... -
On Asymmetric Distributed Source Coding For Wireless Sensor Networks
(2011-01-19)We are concerned with addressing the worst-case distributed source coding (DSC) problem in asymmetric and interactive communication scenarios and its application to data-gathering wireless sensor networks in enhancing their ... -
On certain invariant measures for correspondences, their analysis, and an application to recurrence
The aim of this dissertation is to analyse a certain class of dynamically interesting mea- sures arising in holomorphic dynamics that goes beyond the classical framework of maps. We study measures associated with semigroups ... -
On Codes for Private Information Retrieval and Ceph Implementation of a High-Rate Regenerating Code
(2018-07-09)Error-control codes, which are being extensively used in communication systems, have found themselves very useful in data storage as well during the past decade. This thesis deals with two types of codes for data storage, ... -
On commuting isometries and commuting isometric semigroups
This thesis consists of two parts- commuting isometries and commuting isometric semigroups. In the first part, we study the Taylor joint spectrum for a pair of commuting isometries in certain cases. We show that the joint ... -
On Critical Points of Random Polynomials and Spectrum of Certain Products of Random Matrices
(2018-07-30)In the first part of this thesis, we study critical points of random polynomials. We choose two deterministic sequences of complex numbers, whose empirical measures converge to the same probability measure in complex plane. ... -
On Design and Analysis of Energy Efficient Wireless Networks with QoS
(2018-06-13)We consider optimal power allocation policies for a single server, multiuser wireless communication system. The transmission channel may experience multipath fading. We obtain very efficient, low computational complexity ... -
On Dimensional Parameters Of Graphs And Posets
(2013-06-21)In this thesis we study the following dimensional parameters : boxicity, cubicity, threshold dimension and poset dimension. While the first three parameters are defined on graphs, poset dimension is defined on partially ... -
On Flow Physics of Spinning Samaras
A particular form of winged seed (samara) dispersal technique adopted by nature uses autorotative (unpowered rotation of the wing generating thrust force against gravity) descent; for eg. in Maple and Mahagony trees. ... -
On Generalized Measures Of Information With Maximum And Minimum Entropy Prescriptions
(2008-01-29)Kullback-Leibler relative-entropy or KL-entropy of P with respect to R defined as ∫xlnddPRdP , where P and R are probability measures on a measurable space (X, ), plays a basic role in the definitions of classical information ... -
On Hypergeometric solutions of Feynman integrals using Mellin-Barnes Integrals with Applications
Experimental measurements of physical observables in particle colliders rely on high-precision theoretical calculations to validate the predictions of any theoretical model and detect signals of new physics. These theoretical ... -
On late stages of transition in round jets
A round jet is one of the simplest canonical axisymmetric free shear flows that occur both in engineering applications and natural phenomena. A laminar-turbulent transition process is inherent to its development involving ... -
On Learning and Lower Bound Problems Related to the Iterated Matrix Multiplication Polynomial
The iterated matrix multiplication polynomial (IMM) of width w and length d is the 1x1 entry in the product of d square matrices of size w. The w^2d entries in the d matrices are distinct variables. In this thesis, we study ... -
On Learning k-Parities and the Complexity of k-Vector-SUM
(2018-02-06)In this work, we study two problems: first is one of the central problem in learning theory of learning sparse parities and the other k-Vector-SUM is an extension of the not oriousk-SUM problem. We first consider the problem ... -
On Leveraging Dynamic Processes in Large Social Networks for Smart Cities
The concept of smart city which began as being synonymous with electronically networked community underwent significant changes with the growth in mobile devices and social networking. This expanded the outlook of smart ...
