Subseasonal forecasting (SSF) is the forecasting of the weather parameters two weeks (weather timescale) to two months (seasons timescale) in advance. SSF was considered a ‘predictability desert’ as it is too long for much ...

Understanding the regulation of gene expression in the context of development is important as it helps in comprehending the processes by which cells differentiate and develop into specific tissues and organs. Cis-regulatory ...

Reliable communication of neuronal information by neurons of the central nervous system to its downstream neurons involves transformation of input spike trains to specific output spike trains. The spike train to spike train ...

This thesis studies the causal effects of electricity access and quality on villages and households in India. Using three panels of rural household data, we quantify the impacts of short-term (0-7 years) and long-term (7-17 ...

Visual-spatial memory is essential for forming a representation of whatever picture the eye captures in mind. Working memory is a subset of the limited capacity part of memory that helps in cognition by integrating information ...

Cerium dioxide (CeO2) sometimes referred to as ceria, is a rare earth metal oxide that is extensively used in a large number of applications. It is a white or pale-yellow powder that conducts electricity well and cannot ...

The development of novel algorithms that process information in ways that are classically intractable and achieve computational speedup is one of the prime motivations in quantum information research. Machine learning is ...

One of the most traditional C-H activation reaction, Fujiwara-Moritani reaction requires stoichiometric metal oxidant. Electro-organic chemistry provides a greener alternative, where electron is used as the redox equivalent. ...

PHARC is an autosomal recessive neurological disorder caused a null mutation in ABHD12 gene. The murine model for PHARC is kind of characterized but the other model organism like Drosophila is not well characterized. We ...

For decision making in environments with hidden changes in context and consequent uncertainty, it is suboptimal to perfectly accumulate evidence. Instead, an ideal strategy involves a non-linear belief updating process ...
