Developing A Model To Generate More Digital Data Of Indian Languages For Multilingual Applications, Arya Bagde Jun 2026

Developing A Model To Generate More Digital Data Of Indian Languages For Multilingual Applications, Arya Bagde

Master’s Dissertations

Most of India’s scheduled languages remain critically under-served by language technology because parallel (translated) text — the raw material that modern multilingual systems depend on — is extremely scarce. Back-translation can synthesise such data automatically, but its quality varies enormously, and unfiltered synthetic data can be worse than no data at all. This dissertation develops a framework that generates synthetic parallel data for four low-resource Indian languages spanning three language families and four scripts — Assamese (Indo-Aryan, Bengali script), Bodo (Tibeto-Burman, Devanagari), Manipuri (Tibeto-Burman, Bengali script) and Santali (Austroasiatic, Ol Chiki)—and introduces CASCADE, a learned multi-signal quality gate that scores …

Dynamic Property Ordering For Efficient Multi-Property Bounded Model Checking, Vivek Kumar Jun 2026

Dynamic Property Ordering For Efficient Multi-Property Bounded Model Checking, Vivek Kumar

Master’s Dissertations

Formal verification plays a critical role in ensuring the correctness of modern hardware designs. As the complexity of digital systems increases, designs are often associated with a large number of verification properties that must be analyzed within limited computational resources. In conventional multi-property bounded model checking (BMC), all properties are verified simultaneously. While this approach enables parallel analysis, difficult properties can consume a disproportionate amount of resources, causing simpler properties to be delayed and reducing the overall efficiency of bug detection. This thesis presents dynamic property ordering techniques for efficient multi-property verification using SAT-based bounded model checking in the ABC …

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 …

A Study Of Prompt Tuning On Small Language Models(Slms): A Controlled Benchmark And A Lightweight Instance-Aware Method, Narkadamilli Sahith Jun 2026

A Study Of Prompt Tuning On Small Language Models(Slms): A Controlled Benchmark And A Lightweight Instance-Aware Method, Narkadamilli Sahith

Master’s Dissertations

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) adapts a frozen pre-trained language model by training only a small number of additional parameters. Among PEFT approaches, prompt tuning prepends trainable continuous vectors (soft prompts) to the input. A recurring finding in the literature is that prompt tuning is strongly scale dependent: it rivals full fine-tuning on very large models but lags on smaller ones. This dissertation studies prompt tuning specifically in the small-language-model (SLM) regime. We (i) re-implement a representative set of prompt-tuning methods—Prompt Tuning, P-Tuning v2, LoPT, DPT, DePT, ACCEPT, Residual Prompt Tuning, and PARA—within a single controlled harness, enabling a fair head-to-head comparison …

Reproducing And Analyzing The “Lost In The Middle” And “The Power Of Noise” Phenomenon In Retrieval-Augmented Generation, Kousik Samanta Jun 2026

Reproducing And Analyzing The “Lost In The Middle” And “The Power Of Noise” Phenomenon In Retrieval-Augmented Generation, Kousik Samanta

Master’s Dissertations

Retrieval-Augmented Generation has become the way to improve Large Language Models. They help with problems like knowledge and hallucinations. Recent studies show that these models still have limitations. One big problem is the “Lost in the Middle” phenomenon. Models can’t access information in the middle of contexts properly. Another counterintuitive observation is the “Power of Noise” paradigm, which suggests adding unrelated documents can actually make the generation better. We know these happen in extractive QA tasks, but we don’t know if they happen in tasks that need complex reasoning. This dissertation looks into how position and noise affect Long-Form Question …

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 …

Simultaneous Tumor Delineation And Report Generation From Brain Mr Images, Adish Mallik Jun 2026

Simultaneous Tumor Delineation And Report Generation From Brain Mr Images, Adish Mallik

Master’s Dissertations

Brain tumor analysis is an important application of medical image computing, where accurate segmentation and interpretation of tumor regions can support diagnosis and treatment planning. However, existing methods often address tumor segmentation and radiology report generation as separate tasks. Moreover, one of the major challenges in report generation tasks from MRI is accurate tumor localization. Most models fail to locate the lobe and hemisphere in which the tumor is located, causing incorrect report generation. In this regard, a unified 3D vision-language framework is proposed for simultaneous brain tumor segmentation and report generation from multi-modal MRI. Given T1, T2, T1C, and …

Automatic Glossing In Under-Resourced Languages: Case Studies In Bribri And Cook Islands Māori, Carter D. Anderson Jun 2026

Automatic Glossing In Under-Resourced Languages: Case Studies In Bribri And Cook Islands Māori, Carter D. Anderson

Linguistics Undergraduate Senior Theses

Interlinear glossing is a major task in Indigenous language documentation. In this paper, I explore how effectively two Large Language Models, ByT5 and Gemini 2.5 Flash, can produce interlinear glossed text. I also examine how prompting an LLM with different types of information (dictionary entries, other training samples, and translations) can augment model performance. I apply these models to two under-resourced Indigenous languages: Bribri, which is morphologically complex from Costa Rica, and Cook Islands Māori, which has a simpler morphology and is from the Cook Islands in the Pacific Ocean. ByT5 exhibits much better performance when glossing Cook Islands Māori …

Beyond The Best Prompt: A Coverage View Of Multilingual Reasoning, Harshiv Mistry Jun 2026

Beyond The Best Prompt: A Coverage View Of Multilingual Reasoning, Harshiv Mistry

University Honors Theses

Multilingual LLMs reason more accurately in English than in other languages, and recent work links part of this gap to reasoning behavior: native-language traces contain fewer cognitive behaviors (verification, backtracking, subgoal setting, backward chaining) that support effective problem solving. We test whether prompting for these behaviors at inference time narrows the gap, across seven conditions varying chain-of-thought, instruction and reasoning language, and cognitive-behavior descriptions, on two models, three languages. We find that English-scaffolded reasoning is the strongest single strategy on both models, closing the Hindi gap on Qwen, though the explicit scaffold's value over plain chain-of-thought is model-dependent. Beyond aggregate …

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 …
