Learning Algorithms Using Chance-Constrained Programs
(2010-07-08)
This thesis explores Chance-Constrained Programming (CCP) in the context of learning. It is shown that chance-constraint approaches lead to improved algorithms for three important learning problems — classification with ...
Efficient Frequent Closed Itemset Algorithms With Applications To Stream Mining And Classification
(2010-08-24)
Data mining is an area to find valid, novel, potentially useful, and ultimately understandable abstractions in a data. Frequent itemset mining is one of the important data mining approaches to find those abstractions in ...
Large Scale Implementation Of The Block Lanczos Algorithm
(2010-08-16)
Large sparse matrices arise in many applications, especially in the major problems of Cryptography of factoring integers and computing discrete logarithms. We focus attention on such matrices called sieve matrices generated ...
Efficient Compilation Of Stream Programs Onto Multi-cores With Accelerators
(2010-12-30)
Over the past two decades, microprocessor manufacturers have typically relied on wider issue widths and deeper pipelines to obtain performance improvements for single threaded applications. However, in the recent years, ...
Conflict-Tolerant Features
(2010-12-07)
Large, software intensive systems are typically developed using a feature oriented development paradigm in which feature specifications are derived from domain requirements and features are implemented to satisfy such ...
Time Management In Partitioned Systems
(2010-02-11)
Time management is one of the critical modules of safety-critical systems. Applications need strong assurance from the operating system that their hard real-time requirements are met. Partitioned system has recently evolved ...
Semi-Supervised Classification Using Gaussian Processes
(2010-03-26)
Gaussian Processes (GPs) are promising Bayesian methods for classification and regression problems. They have also been used for semi-supervised classification tasks. In this thesis, we propose new algorithms for solving ...
Topics In Modeling, Analysis And Optimisation Of Wireless Networks
(2010-11-02)
The work in this thesis is concerned with two complementary aspects of wireless networks research; performance analysis and resource optimization. The first part of the thesis focusses on the performance analysis of IEEE ...
Distributed Joint Source-Channel Coding For Multiple Access Channels
(2010-12-31)
We consider the transmission of correlated sources over a multiple access channel(MAC). Multiple access channels are important building blocks in many practical communication systems, e.g., local area networks(LAN), cellular ...
QoS Aware Quorumcasting Over Optical Burst Switched Networks
(2010-10-11)
Recently there is an emergence of many Internet applications such as multimedia, video conferencing, distributed interactive simulations (DIS), and high-performance scientific computations like Grid computing. These ...
