Deep Learning Models for Few-shot and Metric Learning
Deep neural network-based models have achieved unprecedented performance levels over many tasks in the traditional supervised setting and scale well with large quantities of data. On the other hand, improving performance ... -
Deep Learning over Hypergraphs
Graphs have been extensively used for modelling real-world network datasets, however, they are restricted to pairwise relationships, i.e., each edge connects exactly two vertices. Hypergraphs relax the notion of edges ... -
Deep Learning with Minimal Supervision
Abstract In recent years, deep neural networks have achieved extraordinary performance on supervised learning tasks. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have vastly improved the state of the art for most computer vision ... -
Deep mutational scanning to enhance immunogenicity and map antibody responses to HIV-1
Vaccines have proven effective against numerous viral diseases, yet the development of a successful vaccine for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) remains elusive. A key immunogen for vaccine design is the surface envelope ... -
Deep Visual Representations: A study on Augmentation, Visualization, and Robustness
Deep neural networks have resulted in unprecedented performances for various learning tasks. Particularly, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are shown to learn representations that can efficiently discriminate hundreds ... -
Deeply Scaled InAlN/GaN-on-Silicon High Electron Mobility Transistors for RF Applications
Wide bandgap gallium nitride (GaN) based high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) are promising candidates for next-generation radio frequency (RF) power amplifier applications owing to high electron saturation velocity ... -
Defect Engineering and Doping of 2D Transition Metal Dichalcogenides: A First-Principles Study
The foundation of the electronic industry is based on n-type and p-type semiconductor materials, which is obtained by the ubiquitously present point defects. The presence of defects affects the electronic and optoelectronic ... -
Defluoridation Of Drinking Water Using A Combined Alum-Activated Alumina Process And Nanoscale Adsorbents
(2010-10-08)Excess Fluoride in drinking water is a cause for concern in several countries in the world. Various techniques have been developed to mitigate the harmful effects of fluoride. In the present work, a combined alum and ... -
Defluoridation Of Drinking Water Using Activated Alumina
(2013-05-20)Excess fluoride (F-) in drinking water poses a health threat to millions of people around the world. In the present work, activated alumina (AA) has been used as an adsorbent. Data obtained from batch experiments were ... -
Deformation characteristics of soil under sequential dynamic torsional and cyclic axial loading
Earthquake-induced structural damages caused due to site effects, soil liquefaction failure, and associated excessive settlement are well-known worldwide. The primary controlling factor responsible for the superstructure’s ... -

Degradation Studies on Polymeric Insulators used for EHV and UHV Transmission
High voltage insulators used in overhead power transmission systems are of key im- portance for safe, reliable, and effcient operation of transmission line in transferring huge amount of electrical power. Conventionally, ... -
Deiodination of Thyroid Hormones by Iodothyronine Deiodinase Mimics
(2018-03-26)Thyroxine is the main secretory hormone of thyroid gland and it is produced in thyroglobulin by thyroid peroxidase/hydrogen peroxide/iodide system. After biosynthesis and secretion of thyroxine, it undergoes multiple ... -
Delamination Modeling and Detection in Composite Structures
(2017-12-12)Composite laminated structures are prone to delamination. Rotorcraft flexbeams, apart from many other aerospace primary load carrying members are made up of composite laminated structures. A delaminated primary load carrying ... -
Delaunay Graphs for Various Geometric Objects
(2017-12-12)Given a set of n points P ⊂ R2, the Delaunay graph of P for a family of geometric objects C is a graph defined as follows: the vertex set is P and two points p, p' ∈ P are connected by an edge if and only if there exists ... -
Delay Differentiation By Balancing Weighted Queue Lengths
(2017-05-04)Scheduling policies adopted for statistical multiplexing should provide delay differentiation between different traffic classes, where each class represents an aggregate traffic of individual applications having same ... -
Delay Minimization of an M/M/1 Point-to-Point Link Model Subject to Throughput and Power Constraints
(2018-02-15)In this thesis, we address the problem of minimizing the average delay of data pack-ets served by a transmitter on a static, point-to-point link. The transmitter dynamically chooses state-dependent admission and transmission ... -
Deliberations on Borrower Behaviour in the Context of Micro-finance
Micro-finance, a popular tool for poverty alleviation, has witnessed a cycle of reaching out to the credit strapped, recording high recovery rates, scaling up exponentially and facing mass defaults, world-over. The two ... -
Delineating the dynamics of neutrophil response in multiple inflammatory stimuli and its consequences
In this thesis, we investigate the regulation of neutrophils, an important component of the immune system, and its implications on inflammation and pathological conditions. We use biomaterial implants to induce chronic ...
