Scheduling Algorithms for Wireless Networks and Cloud Computing Platforms
This thesis focuses on designing scheduling algorithms for wireless communication networks, FMCW radar networks, and cloud computing platforms. In each case, the algorithms aim at efficient utilization of resources, e.g., ...
Generalizing Cross-domain Retrieval Algorithms
Cross-domain retrieval is an important research topic due to its wide range of applications in e-commerce, forensics etc. It addresses the data retrieval problem from a search set, when the query belongs to one domain, and ...
Operating System Support for Efficient Virtual Memory
Computers rely on the virtual memory abstraction to simplify programming, portability, physical memory management and ensure isolation among co-running applications. However, it creates a layer of indirection in the ...
Performance Characterization and Optimizations of Traditional ML Applications
Even in the era of Deep Learning based methods, traditional machine learning methods with large data sets continue to attract significant attention. However, we find an apparent lack of a detailed performance characterization ...
Recovery Algorithms for planted structures in Semi-random models
For many NP-hard problems, the analysis of best-known approximation algorithms yields “poor” worst-case guarantees. However, using various heuristics, the problems can be solved (to some extent) in real-life instances. ...
Algorithms for Challenges to Practical Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement learning (RL) in real world applications faces major hurdles - the foremost being safety of the physical system controlled by the learning agent and the varying environment conditions in which the autonomous ...
Practically Efficient Secure Small Party Computation over the Internet
Secure Multi-party Computation (MPC) with small population has drawn focus specifically
due to customization in techniques and resulting efficiency that the constructions can offer.
Practically efficient constructions ...
Revisiting Statistical Techniques for Result Cardinality Estimation
The Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) constitute the backbone of today's information-rich society, providing a congenial environment for handling enterprise data during its entire life cycle of generation, ...
Recommendations in Complex Networks: Unifying Structure into Random Walk
Making recommendations or predicting links which are likely to exist in the future is one
of the central problems in network science and graph mining. In spite of modern state-of-
the-art approaches for link prediction, ...
Fast and Robust Biomedical Image Reconstruction from Nonuniform Samples
We consider the problem of reconstructing images from non-uniformly under-sampled spatial
point measurements with emphasis on robustness to noise. The computational methods that
deals with this problem are known as ...
