Variants of Hegselmann-Krause Model
(2017-12-04)
The Hegselmann-Krause system (HK system for short) is one of the most popular models for the dynamics of opinion formation in multi agent systems. Agents are modeled as points in opinion space, and at every time step, each ...
A GPU Accelerated Tensor Spectral Method for Subspace Clustering
(2017-11-30)
In this thesis we consider the problem of clustering the data lying in a union of subspaces using spectral methods. Though the data generated may have high dimensionality, in many of the applications, such as motion ...
Machine Learning and Rank Aggregation Methods for Gene Prioritization from Heterogeneous Data Sources
(2017-12-05)
Gene prioritization involves ranking genes by possible relevance to a disease of interest. This is important in order to narrow down the set of genes to be investigated biologically, and over the years, several computational ...
Development Of Micromachined And Meso-Scale Multi-Axis Accelerometers With Displacement-Amplifying Compliant Mechanisms
(2017-02-22)
Simultaneously achieving high-sensitivity and a large resonance frequency of micromachined accelerometers is difficult because of the inherent trade-off between the two. In this thesis, we present a mechanical displaceme ...
Optimal Control of Information Epidemics in Homogeneously And Heterogeneously Mixed Populations
(2017-09-23)
Social networks play an important role in disseminating a piece of information in a population. Companies advertising a newly launched product, movie promotion, political campaigns, social awareness campaigns by governments, ...
Reduced Switch Count Multilevel Inverter Topologies for Open End Induction Motor Drives
(2017-10-18)
MU LT I L E V E L inverters are becoming the preferred choice for medium voltage high power applications. Multilevel inverters have a number of inherent advantages over conventional two level inverters. The output voltage ...
Studies on Current Hysteresis Controllers and Low Order Harmonic Suppression Techniques for IM Drives with Dodecagoal Voltage Space Vectors
(2017-12-01)
Multilevel inverters are very popular for medium and high-voltage induction motor (IM) drive applications. They have superior performance compared to 2-level inverters such as reduced harmonic content in output voltage and ...
Algorithm And Architecture Design for Real-time Face Recognition
(2017-10-31)
Face recognition is a field of biometrics that deals with identification of subjects based on features present in the images of their faces. The factors that make face recognition popular and favorite as compared to other ...
Design and Optimization of Displacement Measurement Eddy Current Sensor for Mass Production
(2017-11-14)
Eddy current (EC) based testing and measurement methods are well known in non-destructive testing (NDT) world. EC sensors are extensively studied and used for material health monitoring and its property measurement. Target ...
Ballast-Free Variable-Speed Generation for Standalone and Grid-Connected Micro-Hydel Power Plants
(2017-12-12)
Concerns about climate change brought about by the increasing usage of fossil fuels has made it imperative to develop sustainable energy usage based on renewable sources. Micro-hydel plants are an important source of ...
