Relay Selection And User Scheduling In Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Assisted Millimeter-Wave D2d Communication, Lakshmikanta Sau Jun 2026

Relay Selection And User Scheduling In Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Assisted Millimeter-Wave D2d Communication, Lakshmikanta Sau

Doctoral Theses

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) assisted millimeter wave (mmWave) device to device (D2D) communication has recently been proposed as a viable solution to support the overwhelming data traffic in fifth-generation (5G) and beyond wireless networks. However, due to the substantial propagation and penetration losses of mmWave, a direct line of sight (LoS) link between a pair of proximity devices is required for effective communication. Static obstacles like trees and buildings can easily obstruct the direct LoS connectivity between a device pair. In such cases, RISs help to establish an indirect LoS link between an obstructed device pair by reflecting the signals …

American Sign Language Recognition And Analysis Using Deep Learning, Saurabh Kumar Soni Jun 2026

American Sign Language Recognition And Analysis Using Deep Learning, Saurabh Kumar Soni

Master’s Dissertations

In this work I build a system that recognizes isolated American Sign Language (ASL) words, and I use it to ask one fairly direct question: when training data is scarce, is it better to look at the video pixels or at the geometry of the signer’s body? To find out, I train two very different models on exactly the same clips. The first is appearance-based. Every frame is run through standard preprocessing and a ResNet50 backbone pre-trained on ImageNet, which turns it into a 2048-dimensional feature vector, and a Bidirectional LSTM then reads that sequence over time. The second model …

Learnable Structured Attention For Student-Aware Knowledge Distillation In Dense Prediction, Chen Liu Jun 2026

Learnable Structured Attention For Student-Aware Knowledge Distillation In Dense Prediction, Chen Liu

ETDs from 2020-2029

Dense prediction tasks, including object detection and semantic segmentation, require models to produce structured predictions and are widely used in real-world vision applications. Although deep networks have achieved strong performance on these tasks, their high computational cost limits deployment on resource-constrained systems such as autonomous-driving vehicles. Knowledge distillation (KD) addresses this issue by transferring knowledge from a large teacher model to a compact student model. However, existing distillation methods for dense prediction face greater challenges than those for classification due to the more complex task requirements. To overcome the challenges, this thesis presents a unified study of adaptive distillation for …

Learning In Infants Using Intrinsically Motivated Goal Conditioned Reinforcement Learning, T I Darsan Jun 2026

Learning In Infants Using Intrinsically Motivated Goal Conditioned Reinforcement Learning, T I Darsan

Master’s Dissertations

Traditional artificial intelligence models learn by passively digesting large datasets. In contrast, human infants discover skills by actively interacting with their bodies and environments without explicit external rewards. This thesis introduces the Composer Architecture, a machine learning framework designed to mimic this autonomous, open-ended development. The Composer architecture operates in a multi-stage loop, the latent model using Contrastive Learning Through Time (CLTT) to compress high-dimensional raw data from visual, proprioceptive, and touch sensors into a low-dimensional space. To preserve data relationships and prevent topological collapse, a Softmax activation forces these latent representations to lie smoothly on a probability simplex. A …

An Efficient Hierarchical Deployment Of Sensors For K-Coverage In Planner Wireless Sensor Network, Abhay Raj Singh Jun 2026

An Efficient Hierarchical Deployment Of Sensors For K-Coverage In Planner Wireless Sensor Network, Abhay Raj Singh

Master’s Dissertations

Ensuring reliable sensing coverage is a fundamental challenge in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), particularly when multiple sensors are monitoring each location to provide robustness against node failures. In this work, we address the problem of deterministic k-coverage in planar WSN by proposing a hierarchical triangular lattice-based deployment strategy that organizes sensor locations across di↵erent refinement levels and guarantees coverage of every point in the sensing domain by at least k sensors. Each lattice is three-colorable, and selective activation of color classes ensures adjustable coverage guarantees. We prove that activating a single color class at refinement level t guarantees at least …

Journal of Soft Computing and Computer Applications

Environmental conditions such as low-light at night, fog scattering, glare artifacts, rain streaks, and rain smear distortions are significant issues of camera-based perception in Autonomous Vehicles (AVs). These degradations alter the statistics of the scene, mask structure, introduce non-uniform noise, and adversely affect downstream vision processes, including detection and tracking. To overcome this shortcoming, this paper presents a lightweight TinyVGG-based degradation classification system that runs in real time. The network extracts discriminative spatial features with hierarchical convolutional encoding and projects them to a lower-dimensional semantic representation with fully connected layers and a multi-class predictor based on SoftMax. In addition, a …

Multi-Frequency Associative Memory For Continual Graph Learning Through Nested Optimization, Shuvam Kundu Jun 2026

Multi-Frequency Associative Memory For Continual Graph Learning Through Nested Optimization, Shuvam Kundu

Master’s Dissertations

Graph Neural Networks struggle to learn new tasks without forgetting old ones a problem known as catastrophic forgetting. In graph domains, this is compounded by structural shift, where newly added edges corrupt the learned representations of historical nodes even when model weights remain unchanged. We present CAM-Titans, a continual graph learning framework built around a two-buffer associative memory to address both parametric and structural forgetting. Our architecture operates across three timescales of adaptation: a slow base memory updated via ordinary gradient descent, an intermediate task buffer re-encoded after every task using the delta-rule, and a transient in-context state for rapid …

Learning To See Lesions, Not Skin Tone: Counterfactual Multimodal Learning For Fair, Trustworthy, And Text-Free Dermatology Ai, Shivam Jangid

Master’s Dissertations

Recent advances in deep learning have significantly improved the performance of automated skin lesion classification systems, enabling accurate detection of various dermatological conditions from medical images. Despite these achievements, concerns regarding fairness and generalization remain a major challenge for the deployment of such systems in real-world clinical settings. A key factor contributing to these challenges is the presence of bias in training datasets, particularly with respect to skin-tone representation. Most publicly available skin lesion datasets contain a disproportionate number of samples from individuals with lighter skin tones. As a result, deep learning models trained on these datasets often learn representations …

Adaptive Spectral Trust Gate For Physics- Constrained Operator Learning, Soham Chakraborty Jun 2026

Adaptive Spectral Trust Gate For Physics- Constrained Operator Learning, Soham Chakraborty

Master’s Dissertations

Physics-informed machine learning improves the plausibility, data-efficiency and generalization of surrogate models by injecting prior physical knowledge into the learning process. The current approaches can be broadly divided into two main categories: soft constraints, which add a physics residual to the training loss but guarantee nothing at inference time, and hard constraints, which project the model output onto the constraint set exactly but apply the projection uniformly to every part of the signal — including parts that are dominated by noise, discretization error, or model mismatch, where the idealized physics is not actually trustworthy. This dissertation proposes the Adaptive Spectral …

Deep Reinforcement Learning With Directed Asymmetry And Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks For Dismantling Interdependent Multiplex Networks, Soumyajit Dev Jun 2026

Deep Reinforcement Learning With Directed Asymmetry And Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks For Dismantling Interdependent Multiplex Networks, Soumyajit Dev

Master’s Dissertations

Identifying the minimum-cost node-removal sequence that fragments a complex network - the network dismantling problem is NP-hard and central to infrastructure resilience. In interdependent multiplex networks, this difficulty is compounded by cascading cross-layer failures. While deep reinforcement learning (DRL) agents utilizing graph neural network (GNN) encoders achieve near-optimal dismantling, current state-of-the-art architectures suffer from two critical limitations. Topologically, existing agents strictly assume undirected edges, rendering them inapplicable to directed systems - such as supply chains or gene regulatory cascades - where failure propagation is fundamentally asymmetric. To resolve this, we propose Disassembling Directed Interdependent Networks (DDIN). DDIN introduces an asymmetric …

A Switch-Point-Aware Contrastive Approach To Sentiment Analysis Of Hinglish Code-Mixed Text, Prasant Kumar Sahoo Jun 2026

A Switch-Point-Aware Contrastive Approach To Sentiment Analysis Of Hinglish Code-Mixed Text, Prasant Kumar Sahoo

Master’s Dissertations

With the increasing use of social media in non-English-speaking regions, especially in India, people often use Romanized Hindi and English together in their online communication. In a single sentence, they frequently mix Romanized Hindi and English, creating code-mixed text. However, most multilingual transformer models are pre-trained primarily on monolingual data. As a result, NLP systems face challenges when processing code-mixed text, as a single word may be fragmented into meaningless subword pieces, making it difficult for the model to capture its semantic meaning accurately. In this dissertation, we propose a parameter efficient neural architecture consisting of three main components to …

Extending Unibreak: Semantic Retrieval And Harmful-Intent Direction Suppression For Token-Level Llm Jailbreaking, Sanket Saha Jun 2026

Extending Unibreak: Semantic Retrieval And Harmful-Intent Direction Suppression For Token-Level Llm Jailbreaking, Sanket Saha

Master’s Dissertations

Token-level adversarial perturbations remain one of the most efficient known attacks against the safety alignment of instruction-tuned large language models (LLMs). Among recent works, the UniBreak framework (You et al., 2026) stands out for unifying gradient-based optimization with an evolutionary perturbation repository. However, its repository relies solely on accumulated success frequency without utilizing query content, and its fitness function implicitly assumes that suppressing refusal tokens is sufficient to elicit harmful responses. In this dissertation, we extend UniBreak along both axes and re-evaluates the framework under stricter generalization and judgment protocols. Specifically, we introduce a semantic perturbation repository that replaces frequency-only …

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

Many computer networks in operation today currently use both IPv4 and IPv6 stacks. On the other hand, there is a transition towards IPv6-only networks as a result of the limited availability of IPv4 addresses. The primary protocol for link-local IPv6 communication is the Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP). Regrettably, its insecure design and basic scope-based security mechanisms make the local network susceptible to insider threats. The Internet Engineering Task Force’s recommended security mechanism for NDP, which is Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND), is well documented but complex and unsuitable for resource-constrained devices and networks. Trust-ND was positioned as an alternative to SEND …
