A Nash Bargaining Based Bid Optimizer for Sponsored Search Auctions
The on-line advertising market involving displaying of Ads against search results by a search engine is growing at a fast rate. A majority of the search engine companies sell their advertising space through auctions which ... -
Near-Duplicate Detection Using Instance Level Constraints
(2011-08-09)For the task of near-duplicate document detection, comparison approaches based on bag-of-words used in information retrieval community are not sufficiently accurate. This work presents novel approach when instance-level ... -
Network Centrality Measures And Their Applications
(2014-03-03)Study of complex networks by researchers from many disciplines has provided penetrating insights on various complex systems. A study of the world wide web from a network theoretic perspective has led to the design of new ... -
Neural Approaches for Natural Language Query Answering over Source Code
During software development, developers need to ensure that the developed code is bug-free and the best coding practices are followed during the code development process. To guarantee this, the developers require answers ... -
Neural Models for Personalized Recommendation Systems with External Information
Personalized recommendation systems use the data generated by user-item interactions (for example, in the form of ratings) to predict different users interests in available items and recommend a set of items or products ... -

New Algorithmic and Hardness Results in Learning, Error Correcting Codes and Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Approximation algorithms are a natural way to deal with the intractability barrier that is inherent in many naturally arising computational problems. However, it is often the case that the task of solving the approximation ... -
New Approaches And Experimental Studies On - Alegebraic Attacks On Stream Ciphers
(2015-02-05)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 ... -
New Methods for Learning from Heterogeneous and Strategic Agents
(2018-05-21)1 Introduction In this doctoral thesis, we address several representative problems that arise in the context of learning from multiple heterogeneous agents. These problems are relevant to many modern applications such as ... -
New Models and Methods for Formation and Analysis of Social Networks
Social networks are an inseparable part of human lives, and play a major role in a wide range of activities in our day-to-day as well as long-term lives. The rapid growth of online social networks has enabled people to ... -
New Techniques for Automatic Short Answer Grading
Assessing acquired knowledge by students is one of the key aspects of the pedagogical ecosystem. A significant part of a teacher’s time is spent towards grading responses of students to questions given in assignments and ... -
Non-Parametric Clustering of Multivariate Count Data
(2018-05-23)The focus of this thesis is models for non-parametric clustering of multivariate count data. While there has been significant work in Bayesian non-parametric modelling in the last decade, in the context of mixture models ... -

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 ... -
Novel First-order Algorithms for Non-smooth Optimization Problems in Machine Learning
This thesis is devoted to designing efficient optimization algorithms for machine learning (ML) problems where the underlying objective function to be optimized is convex but not necessarily differentiable. Such non-smooth ... -
A Novel Game Theoretic And Voting Mechanism Based Approach For Carbon Emissions Reduction
(2014-08-07)Global warming is currently a major challenge facing the world. There are widespread ongoing efforts in the form of summits, conferences, etc., to find satisfactory ways of surmounting this challenge. The basic objective ... -
Novel Mechanisms For Allocation Of Heterogeneous Items In Strategic Settings
(2012-04-20)Allocation of objects or resources to competing agents is a ubiquitous problem in the real world. For example, a federal government may wish to allocate different types of spectrum licenses to telecom service providers; a ... -
