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 ...
Average Reward Actor-Critic with Deterministic Policy Search
The average reward criterion is relatively less studied as most existing works in the Reinforcement Learning literature consider the discounted reward criterion. There are few recent works that present on-policy average ...
Design, Implementation, and Analysis of a TLB-based Covert Channel on GPUs
GPUs are now commonly available in most modern computing platforms. They are increasingly being
adopted in cloud platforms and data centers due to their immense computing capability. In response to
this growth in usage, ...
Novel Algorithms for Improving Agricultural Planning and Operations using Artificial Intelligence and Game Theory
This dissertation work is motivated by the critical need to address a perennial global problem, namely, how to mitigate the distress of the small and marginal agricultural farmers in emerging economies. Key reasons behind ...
Stochastic Finite Element Modeling of Material and Geometric Uncertainties in Electromagnetics
Design methodologies for RF/Microwave systems require major changes to cope up with the evolution of faster, high data/rate wireless communication systems using 5G and futuristic 6G technologies. The research on Terahertz ...
Investigations on the Corona Degradation of Polymeric Insulating Samples
Insulators play an important role in the reliability and safe operation of EHV/UHV transmission lines. Recently several utilities in the country and elsewhere are using polymeric insulators for the high voltage transmission ...
CodeQueries: Benchmarking Query Answering over Source Code
Software developers often make queries about the security, performance effectiveness, and maintainability of their code. Through an iterative debugging process, developers analyze the code to find answers to these ...
True Random Number Generators based on Amplified Spontaneous Emission
Low-cost, high-speed quantum random number generators (QRNGs) are imperative to develop in order to have a widespread application in areas ranging from cryptography and stochastic simulations to banking and internet. ...
First principles-based study of monolayer WSSe and metal interface.
The semiconductor-metal interface is universal for any electron device. Two-dimensional semiconductors have the advantages of free dangling bonds and atomically flat surfaces, making them promising materials to substitute ...
Algorithms for Achieving Fairness and Efficiency in Matching Problems
Matching problems arise in numerous practical settings. Fairness and efficiency are two desirable properties in most such real world scenarios. This dissertation work presents new approaches and models for capturing and ...
