The central theme of the thesis is to study linear and non linear SVM formulations in the presence of uncertain observations. The main contribution of this thesis is to derive robust classfiers from partial knowledge of ...

The number of processor cores and on-chip cache size has been increasing on chip multiprocessors (CMPs). As a result, leakage power dissipated in the on-chip cache has become very significant. We explore various techniques ...

Algebraic attacks constitute an effective class of cryptanalytic attacks which have come up recently. In algebraic attacks, the relations between the input, output and the key are expressed as a system of equations and ...

Autonomic management is important in storage systems and the space of autonomics in storage systems is vast. Such autonomic management systems can employ a variety of techniques depending upon the specific problem. In this ...

Sentiment Analysis is an area of Computer Science that deals with the impact a document makes on a user. The very field is further sub-divided into Opinion Mining and Emotion Analysis, the latter of which is the basis for ...

Music analysis and source separation have become important and allied areas of research over the last decade. Towards this, analyzing a music signal for important events such as onsets, offsets and transients are important ...

High voltage (EHV and UHV) transmission facilitates transfer of large amount of power over long distances. However, due to the inherent geometry, the line and substation hardware of EHV and UHV class generate high electric ...

It is the need of the hour to reduce the pollutants which poison our atmosphere and harm our health. The diesel engines are the most efficient IC engines in the world today, but paradoxically, they are also the engines ...

Voltage source inverter (VSI) is used to control the speed of an induction motor by applying AC voltage of variable amplitude and frequency. The semiconductor switches in a VSI are turned on and off in an appropriate ...

Hybrid Wireless Networks (HWNs) are composite networks comprises of different technologies, possibly with overlapping coverage. Users with multimode terminals in HWNs are able to initiate connectivity that best suits their ...
