Video Instance Segmentation via Spatio-temporal Embedding and Clustering
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Kasaei, Shohreh (Supervisor)
Abstract
Video Instance Segmentation is one of the newest tasks in computer vision, tasked with segmenting, categorizing, and tracking instances across video frames. This task is highly significant and applicable today in industries such as autonomous vehicles, surveillance systems, production lines, and medical video analysis. Generally, there are two approaches for solving the task of Video Instance Segmentation: the object-oriented approach and the pixel-oriented approach. In the object-oriented approach, after detecting instances at the image level, the segmentation and tracking processes are performed to link the instances. In the pixel-oriented approach, all spatial-temporal information is...

Security Issues and Challenges in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANET)
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Movaghar, Ali (Supervisor)
Abstract
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are currently attracting the attention of researchers around the world. They offer a wide range of applications improving road safety and driving comfort. Since VANET applications affect safety-of-life, data security in a vehicular system is mandatory. VANET is a special case of Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET). Routing in VANET is a controversial issue. Furthermore, Security at routing level is so important because if the routing is compromised, other protocol layers on top of the network layer are also compromised. In this thesis, DSDV, DSR and AODV routing protocols are simulated to understand which of these protocols are suitable for VANET. Finding...

Abstract
The liquid film motor is a freely suspended liquid film placed between two capacitively coupled plates that rotates when an electric current is passed through it. Here we propose a theory for its rotation mechanism based on thin film electroconvection. The capacitively coupled plates induce free charges on the surfaces of the film, and the electric field on the film exerts a force that induces rotation. Results of the proposed theory and simulation are in good agreement with the experiments in different properties of the liquid film motor

Abstract
Hydrocracking is one of the most versatile petroleum refining processes for production of valuable products including gasoline, gas oil, and jet fuel. In this paper, a five-parameter continuous lumping model was used for kinetic modeling of hydrocracking of vacuum gas oil (VGO). The model parameters were estimated from industrial data obtained from a fixed bed reactor operating at an average temperature of 400°C and residence time of 0.3 h. Product distributions were obtained in terms of the weight fraction of various boiling point cuts. The model parameters were estimated using the Nelder-Mead optimization procedure and were correlated with temperature. Comparison of experimental and...
A Novel Loss Function Based on Clustering Quality Criteria in Spatio-Temporal Clustering

Abstract
Video instance segmentation has diverse applications in the autonomous vehicle industry, image surveillance systems, production lines, and medical video analysis. There are two approaches, top-down and bottom-up, to address the task of instance segmentation in video. Top-down methods heavily rely on image-level segmentation and have separate processes for detection and tracking. They show a strong dependency on image-level segmentation. Bottom-up approaches leverage both spatial and temporal information simultaneously, aiming for a gradual transition from pixel-level features to spatiotemporal instances. This paper introduces a novel method to improve the performance of video instance...
Improving the Efficiency of Federated Learning in Resource Allocation for Heterogeneous Networks through Intentional Client Selection
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Safaei, Bardia (Supervisor)
Abstract
The rapid expansion of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and the massive generation of multimodal health data have provided unprecedented opportunities for early disease diagnosis and smart patient monitoring. However, the effective utilization of these data faces fundamental challenges regarding privacy preservation and severe computational resource constraints on edge devices. The distributed approach of Federated Learning (FL) addresses privacy concerns by training models locally without transferring raw data. Nevertheless, its implementation in real-world environments suffers from performance degradation due to device heterogeneity (the straggler effect) and their inability to run...
Method of Implementation of MSG-3 for Boeing 747
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Eshraghniaye Jahromi, Abdolhamid (Supervisor)
Abstract
Many airlines operate different fleets under different service conditions. These aircraft fleets need to be maintained in service. Safety, reliability and economic reasons motivate manufacturers, airlines and airworthiness authorities to investigate about different approaches to aircraft maintenance. At first, corrective maintenance which was developed for other industries was used by the aircraft industry but due to increasing complexity of aircrafts and their systems the industry started using time based maintenance. After years of operation and fleet experience, this industry started developing a program of its own i.e., MSG-1, MSG-2 and MSG-3. These maintenance programs have been evolved...
Deep spectral improvement for unsupervised image instance segmentation
, Article PLoS ONE ; Volume 19, Issue 10 October , 2024 ; 19326203 (ISSN) ; Mansourian, A. M ; Kasaei, S ; Sharif University of Technology
2024
Abstract
Recently, there has been growing interest in deep spectral methods for image localization and segmentation, influenced by traditional spectral segmentation approaches. These methods reframe the image decomposition process as a graph partitioning task by extracting features using self-supervised learning and utilizing the Laplacian of the affinity matrix to obtain eigensegments. However, instance segmentation has received less attention than other tasks within the context of deep spectral methods. This paper addresses that not all channels of the feature map extracted from a self-supervised backbone contain sufficient information for instance segmentation purposes. Some channels are noisy and...
Ant colony algorithm for the shortest loop design problem [electronic resource]
, Article Computers and Industrial Engineering, Elsevier ; Volume 50, Issue 4, August 2006, Pages 358–366 ; Kazemi, Morteza ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
In this paper, a new algorithm for solving the shortest loop design problem is presented. The shortest loop design problem is to find the shortest loop for an automated guided vehicle covering at least one edge of each department of a block layout. In this paper, first it is shown that this problem can be represented as a graph model. The properties of the presented model enable us to design a meta-heuristic based on ant colony system algorithm for solving the shortest loop design problem. Computational results show the efficiency of our algorithm in compare to the other techniques

Abstract
Discovery of superconductivity in the impurity band formed by heavy doping of boron into diamond (C:B) as well as doping of boron into silicon (Si:B) has provided a rout for the possibility of new families of superconducting materials. Motivated by the special role played by copper atoms in high temperature superconducting materials where essentially Cu d orbitals are responsible for a variety of correlation induced phases, in this paper we investigate the effect of substitutional doping of Cu into diamond. Our extensive first principle calculations based on density functional theory which are averaged over various geometries indicate the formation of a mid-gap band, which mainly arises from...

Development of a Continuous Lumping Model for Kinetic Modeling of The Isomax Reactors
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khorasheh, Farhad (Supervisor) ; Farhadi, Fathollah (Supervisor)
Abstract
Hydrocracking is one of the most versatile petroleum refining process for production of valuable products including gasoline, gas oil, and kerosene. Various kinetic models have been proposed for hydrocracking process. A commonly used approach is to consider the mixture in terms of selected lums, which can be specified in terms of structural characteristics, such as boiling point. From this approach the reaction mixture can be considered in two types of discrete lumping and continuous lumping. In this thesis, a 5 parameter continuous kinetic lumping model was studied for modeling of the Isomax reactor of Tabriz refinery whose feedstock is a low quality gasoil from vaccum distillatin column....
