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 ... -
Perceptual Quality Assessment of Lowlight Restored and Authentically Distorted Images
The capability of hand-held devices to acquire high-definition visual content has led to a tremendous increase in the number of images and videos captured daily. However, camera hardware and pipelines are not perfect and ... -
Explainable and Efficient Neural Models for Natural Language to Bash Command Translation
One of the key goals of Natural Language Processing is to make computers understand natural language. Semantic Parsing has been one of the driving tasks for Natural Language Understanding. It is formally defined as the ... -
Wideband Microstrip Patch Antennas and their Modifications for Practical Applications
Printed antennas play an significant role in satellite, mobile, and other wireless communications networks, military systems and several more emerging applications in- cluding radar sensing and imaging. Several of these ... -
Compression for Distributed Optimization and Timely Updates
The goal of this thesis is to study the compression problems arising in distributed computing systematically. In the first part of the thesis, we study gradient compression for distributed first-order optimization. We ... -
Design of Non-Cartesian k-space Trajectories for Reduced Scan Time in Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive and safe medical imaging technique. This imaging modality collects samples in the Fourier domain, called as the k-space. The k-space is traversed along continuous trajectories ... -
Machine Learning for Decoding Imagined words and Altered State of Consciousness from EEG
In the first part of the thesis, the results of our studies on the classification of phonological categories in imagined words are presented. We have investigated whether there are any statistically significant differences ... -
Graph Neural Networks with Parallel Local Neighborhood Aggregations
Graph neural networks (GNNs) have become very popular for processing and analyzing graph-structured data in the last few years. Using message passing as their basic building blocks that aggregate information from neighborhoods, ... -
Topics on Safety and Security of Power Systems
In this thesis, we investigate some of the problems concerning the safety and security of power systems. Since the operational safety of the power system itself is a vast area of research, we choose to investigate the ... -
Hardware-based Device Identification for Systems with Commercially Off-the-shelf Components
The Identity of an electronic device is a fundamental property, that bootstraps several applications such as authentication and traceability. For the purpose of device identification, conventional methods generate a unique ... -
Tailoring excitonic complexes in layered materials
Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) host a variety of strongly bound exciton complexes that control the optical properties in these materials. Apart from spin and valley, layer index provides an additional ... -
Medium Index Contrast Guided Mode Resonant Structures for Photonic Applications in the Visible-Near Infrared Wavelength Regime
Guided mode resonant (GMR) structures are interesting from the point of view of enhanced light-matter interaction and find applications in sensing, filtering, and miniaturized photonic components. The Guided mode resonance ... -
Reinforcement Learning in Large and Structured Environments
In a reinforcement learning (RL) problem, a learner takes actions to control the state of an initially unknown environment so as to maximize the sum of the rewards he obtains. This has several applications in many practical ... -
OTFS Modulation in MIMO Visible Light Communication Systems
Visible light communication (VLC) technology is emerging as an attractive technology for wireless communication in indoor and vehicular environments. In VLS systems, light emitting diodes (LED) and photo diodes (PD) ... -
Deep Learning Methods For Audio EEG Analysis
The perception of speech and audio is one of the defining features of humans. Much of the brain’s underlying processes as we listen to acoustic signals are unknown, and significant research efforts are needed to unravel ... -
Variational Bayes Algorithms for mmWave and Massive MIMO-OFDM Systems with Low Resolution ADCs
In this thesis, we develop novel low-complexity algorithms for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems under practical non-idealities and theoretically analyze their performance. The first problem we consider ... -
