1. Flash Diffractive Imaging in Three Dimensions
Abstract : During the last years we have seen the birth of free-electron lasers, a new type of light source ten billion times brighter than syncrotrons and able to produce pulses only a few femtoseconds long. One of the main motivations for building these multi-million dollar machines was the prospect of imaging biological samples such as proteins and viruses in 3D without the need for crystallization or staining.

2. Digital Geometry and Khalimsky Spaces
Abstract : Digital geometry is the geometry of digital images. Compared to Euclid’s geometry, which has been studied for more than two thousand years, this field is very young.Efim Khalimsky’s topology on the integers, invented in the 1970s, is a digital counterpart of the Euclidean topology on the real line.

3. Expressing emotions through vibration for perception and control
Abstract : This thesis addresses a challenging problem: “how to let the visually impaired ‘see’ others emotions”. We, human beings, are heavily dependent on facial expressions to express ourselves. A smile shows that the person you are talking to is pleased, amused, relieved etc. READ MORE

4. G-structures and Families of Isotropic Submanifolds in Complex Contact Manifolds
Abstract : We study a generalized twistor correspondence between irreducible G-structures (with torsion in general) on complex manifolds Z and moduli spaces M of deformations of isotropic homogeneous submanifolds X in complex contact manifolds Y.For any irreducible G-structure on a complex manifold M we present an explicit construction of a contact manifold (a generalized twistor space) Y with contact line bundle L and a family F of isotropic submanifolds X in Y having M as its moduli space.

5. Entropy and Speech
Abstract : In this thesis, we study the representation of speech signals and the estimation of information-theoretical measures from observations containing features of the speech signal. The main body of the thesis consists of four research papers. Paper A presents a compact representation of the speech signal that facilitates perfect reconstruction. READ MORE
