Space-Vector-Based Pulse Width Modulation Strategies To Reduce Pulsating Torque In Induction Motor Drives
(2015-05-27)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 ... -
Sparsity Driven Solutions to Linear and Quadratic Inverse Problems
The problem of signal reconstruction from inaccurate and possibly incomplete set of linear/non-linear measurements occurs in a variety of signal and image processing applications. In this thesis, we develop reconstruction ... -
Sparsity Motivated Auditory Wavelet Representation and Blind Deconvolution
(2018-08-29)In many scenarios, events such as singularities and transients that carry important information about a signal undergo spreading during acquisition or transmission and it is important to localize the events. For example, ... -
Spatially Adaptive Regularization for Image Restoration
Image restoration/reconstruction refers to the estimation of an underlying image from measurements generated by imaging devices. This problem is generally ill-posed since the measurements are corrupted by the physical ... -
Speaker verification using whispered speech
Like neutral speech, whispered speech is one of the natural modes of speech production, and it is often used by speakers in their day-to-day life. For some people, such as laryngectomees, whispered speech is the only ... -
Spectral And Temporal Zero-Crossings-Based Signal Analysis
(2017-09-20)We consider real zero-crossing analysis of the real/imaginary parts of the spectrum, namely, spectral zero-crossings (SZCs). The two major contributions are to show that: (i) SZCs provide enable temporal localization of ... -
Spectrotemporal Processing of Speech Signals Using the Riesz Transform
Speech signals possess a rich time-varying spectral content, which makes their analysis a challenging signal processing problem. Developing methods for accurate speech analysis has a direct impact on applications such as ... -
Speech and noise analysis using sparse representation and acoustic-phonetics knowledge
This thesis addresses different aspects of machine listening using two different approaches, namely (1) A supervised and adaptive sparse representation based approach for identifying the type of background noise and the ... -
Speech enhancement using deep mixture of experts
Speech enhancement is at the heart of many applications such as speech com- munication, automatic speech recognition, hearing aids etc. In this work, we consider the speech enhancement under the framework of multiple ... -
Speech task-specific representation learning using acoustic-articulatory data
Human speech production involves modulation of the air stream by the vocal tract shape determined by the articulatory configuration. Articulatory gestures are often used to represent the speech units. It has been shown ... -
Stable Galerkin Finite Element Formulation for the Simulation of Electromagnetic Flowmeter
(2018-02-07)Electromagnetic flow meters are simple, rugged, non-invasive flow measuring instruments, which are extensively employed in many applications. In particular, they are ideally suited for the flow rate measurement of liquid ... -
Stationary diesel exhaust treatment by blending discharge plasma/ozone with industry wastes: a study on abatement of NOx and THC
Increased usage of fossil fuels, especially diesel, has made a large impact on the environment in the form of rise in global temperature, increased acidity in the rain water, decreased yield in vegetation and numerous ... -
Straegies For Rapid MR Imaging
(2010-07-21)In MR imaging, techniques for acquisition of reduced data (Rapid MR imaging) are being explored to obtain high-quality images to satisfy the conflicting requirements of simultaneous high spatial and temporal resolution, ... -
Strategies for Handling Large Vocabulary and Data Sparsity Problems for Tamil Speech Recognition
This thesis focuses on the design and development of every building block of a very large vocabulary, continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) system and various experiments conducted in order to enhance its performance. ... -
Studies on EEG correlates of non-ordinary states of consciousness and slow-paced breathing
Studies on the non-ordinary states of consciousness (NSCs) induced by meditation, hypnosis, trance, and slow-paced breathing are gaining visibility due to their potential efficacy in treating various clinical conditions. ... -
Studies on Electrical Treeing in High Voltage Insulation Filled with Nano-Sized Particles
(2018-03-08)Polymers are widely used as insulating materials in high voltage power apparatus because of their excellent electrical insulating properties and good thermomechanical behavior. However, under high electrical stress, polymeric ... -
