Design of Increasing Block Tariff (IBT) for Pricing Domestic Water: A Simulation Approach
In recent times, urban water utilities have shown increasing preference for increasing block tariff (IBT) for pricing domestic water. Although appealing at the outset, IBT’s can fall short of achieving its goals such as ... -
Exploring Soft Matter and Modified-Liquid Electrolytes for Alkali metal (Li, Na) Based Rechargeable Batteries
The current upsurge in demand for high energy density batteries for applications across industries ranging from small scale portable electronics, electric automobiles to storage grids, has led to research in next generation, ... -
Resolvin D1-loaded Liposomal Nanocarriers for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common disorder of the joints and currently affects >300 million patients worldwide. In this disease, the articulating cartilage undergoes progressive damage which leads to severe pain and ... -
Mitigating Domain Shift via Self-training in Single and Multi-target Unsupervised Domain Adaptation
Though deep learning has achieved significant successes in many computer vision tasks, the state-of-the-art approaches rely on the availability of a large amount of labeled data for supervision, collection of which is ... -
Landmark Estimation and Image Synthesis Guidance using Self-Supervised Networks
The exponential rise in the availability of data over the past decade has fuelled research in deep learning. While supervised deep learning models achieve near-human performance using annotated data, it comes with an ... -
Towards Robust and Scalable Video Surveillance: Cross-modal and Domain Generalizable Person Re-identification
With rapid technological advances, one can easily find video surveillance systems deployed in public places such as malls, airports etc. as well as across private residential areas. These systems play a critical role in ... -
Investigating Mechanical Properties of Suspended Ovarian Cancer Cells and Clusters
The peritoneal cavity of a patient suffering from advanced epithelial ovarian cancer is filled with disseminated multicellular aggregates, commonly known as spheroids. These spheroids colonize abdominal organs leading to ... -
Prediction of Dynamical Systems by Constraining the Dynamics on the Observational Manifold
Evolution models of dynamical systems posed as differential equations generally do not include all the factors affecting the system. This leads to a mismatch between the model prediction and the observations. In this work, ... -
Relating Representations in Deep Learning and the Brain
Deep Neural Networks (DNN) inspired by the human brain have redefined the state-of-the-art performance in AI during the past decade. Much of the research is still trying to understand and explain the function of these ... -
Analysis of vocal sounds in asthmatic patients
Around 334 million people have asthma worldwide. Asthma is an inflammatory disease of the airways which causes cough, breathlessness, chest tightness, and other peculiar sounds during breathing. The golden standard test ... -
Deploying an Orthogonal Turn for Isolation of Rare Cell Populations from Vascular Environments
Cancer cells are shed from metastatic primary tumors, bearing the potential for blood-borne metastasis to distant vital organs. Metastasis is predominantly responsible for cancer-related deaths. These circulating tumor ... -
Theory and Algorithms for sequential non-Gaussian Bayesian filtering and estimation
Seamless integration of dynamical system models with sparse measurements, called as Data Assimilation, is important in many applications like weather forecasting, socio-economics, navigation, and beyond. In order to produce ... -
Multi-layered Composite Structures for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Applications
With the recent surge in the usage of electronic devices, electromagnetic interference (EMI) poses a serious threat. Unwanted electromagnetic (EM) waves not only interfere with the normal functioning of electronic components, ... -
Sustainable Urban Mobility: Urban Public Transport Systems Sustainability Assessment
Urban public transport systems have become an inevitable choice to promote sustainable urban mobility in almost every city in the world. In India, buses are the most popular and convenient mode of transport in urban cities. ... -
Droplet, Jets, and Leaky Surfaces
Surface structuring on a micro-nano scale, combined with a low surface energy coating, leads to anti-wetting properties. Such surfaces also exhibit other properties such as self-cleaning, antifouling, bacteriostatic, drag ... -
Improving Healing Outcomes in Diabetic Wounds by Understanding and Modulating Immune Responses
Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs) are chronic wounds that show delayed or absence of healing in individuals with diabetes. Currently, diabetic wounds are managed clinically through regular debridement, pressure off-loading, ... -
Electronic Photonic Circuit Design for RF Transceiver
RF over fibre (RoF) based communication system combines features of mm-wave and optical fibre communication. The RoF-based system has the advantage of both optical fibre systems (such as high bandwidth, signal transparency, ... -
Accelerating Estimation of Perfusion Maps in Contrast X-ray Computed Tomography using Many-core CPUs and GPUs
X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) perfusion imaging is a non-invasive medical imaging modality that has been established as a fast and economical method for diagnosing cerebrovascular diseases such as acute ischemia, sub-arachnoid ... -
Deliberations on Borrower Behaviour in the Context of Micro-finance
Micro-finance, a popular tool for poverty alleviation, has witnessed a cycle of reaching out to the credit strapped, recording high recovery rates, scaling up exponentially and facing mass defaults, world-over. The two ... -
Representation of Natural Stimuli in Neural Signals across Scales and Frequencies
Neural activity from the brain can be recorded at different scales using a variety of electrodes, which vary in their resolution, cortical spread and invasiveness. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is recorded from the scalp, ...
