Evaluation Of Mother Wavelets On Steady-State Visually-Evoked Potentials Fortriple-Command Brain-Computer Interfaces, Ebru Sayilgan, Yilmaz Kemal Yüce, Yalçin İşler

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Wavelet transform (WT) is an important tool to analyze the time-frequency structure of a signal. The WT relies on a prototype signal that is called the mother wavelet. However, there is no single universal wavelet that fits all signals. Thus, the selection of mother wavelet function might be challenging to represent the signal to achieve the optimum performance. There are some studies to determine the optimal mother wavelet for other biomedical signals; however, there exists no evaluation for steady-state visually-evoked potentials (SSVEP) signals that becomes very popular among signals manipulated for brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) recently. This study aims to explore, …

Simultaneous Feedforward Online Command Rate Limiter Filters For Existingcontrollers, Gali̇p Serdar Tombul

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

One of the biggest challenges in controller design for a mechatronics system is the actuator limitations. Either response time of the actuator or the input constraints creates limits for the controller performance and stability. In this study a novel feedforward online rate limiter scheme for arbitrary input signals is introduced by taking velocity, acceleration and jerk constraints into account, and it is investigated that how the control effort and system response is affected by the demand signal's rate of change limitations. A fin actuation system for a guided missile is given as an example where the demand signal comes from …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Cryptography is one of the basic phenomena of security systems. However, some of the widely used publickey cryptography algorithms can be broken by using quantum computers. Therefore, many postquantum cryptography algorithms are proposed in recent years to handle this issue. NTRU (Nth degree truncated polynomial ring units) is one of the most important of these quantum-safe algorithms. Besides the importance of cryptography algorithms, the architecture where they are implemented is also essential. In this study, we developed an NTRU public key cryptosystem application and designed several processors to compare them in many aspects. We address two different architectures in this …

Efficient Hybrid Passive Method For The Detection And Localization Of Copy-Moveand Spliced Images, Navneet Kaur, Neeru Jindal, Kulbir Singh

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Digital passive image forgery methods are extensively used to verify the authenticity and integrity of images.Splicing and copy-move are the most common types of passive digital image forgeries. Several approaches have beenproposed to detect these forgeries separately, but very few approaches are available that can detect them simultaneously.However, a more e?icient method is still in demand to meet the day-to-day challenges to detect these forgeries at thesame time. So, a passive hybrid approach based on discrete fractional cosine transform (DFrCT) and local binarypattern (LBP) is proposed to detect copy-move and splicing forgeries simultaneously.

Metaheuristic based artificial intelligence algorithms are commonly used in the solution of optimization problems. Another area -besides engineering systems- where chaos theory is widely employed is optimization problems. Being applied easily and not trapping in local optima, chaos-based search algorithms have attracted great attention. For example, it has been reported that when random number sequences generated from different chaotic systems are replaced with parameter values in bioinspired and swarm intelligence algorithms, an increase in the performance of metaheuristic algorithms is observed.

Comparative Review Of Disk Type And Unconventional Transverse Flux Machines:Performance Analysis, Erhan Tuncel, Emi̇n Yildiriz Jan 2021

Comparative Review Of Disk Type And Unconventional Transverse Flux Machines:Performance Analysis, Erhan Tuncel, Emi̇n Yildiriz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Transverse flux machines (TFM) can be designed with high pole numbers, so they are very useful in directdrive systems with high torque density. Although many TFM models have been proposed to date, no detailed classification and comparison has been made before. Conventional TFMs have a high power and torque density, but low power factors and high cogging torques have prevented them from being widely used. However, especially with the new disk type TFMs proposed in recent years and the methods developed, these drawbacks have been reduced. In this paper, the TFMs proposed in recent years have been classified and their …


Bagging Ensemble For Deep Learning Based Gender Recognition Using Test-Timeaugmentation On Large-Scale Datasets, Taner Danişman Jan 2021

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

We present a bagging ensemble of convolutional networks in combination with the test-time augmentation technique to improve performance on the cross-dataset gender recognition problem. The bagging ensemble combines the predictions from multiple homogeneous models into the ensemble prediction. Augmentation techniques are often used in the learning phase of the CNNs to improve the generalization ability. On the other hand, test-time augmentation is not a common method used in the testing phase of the learned model. We conducted experiments on models trained using different hyperparameters. We augmented the test data and combine the predictive outputs from these network models. Experiments performed …

On Performance Analysis Of Multioperator Ran Sharing For Mobile Networkoperators, Yekta Türk, Engi̇n Zeydan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Enhancing the coverage and eliminating the poor performance is key to balance end-user experience andfuture network investments for mobile network operators (MNOs). Although vast amounts of infrastructure investmentsare provided by MNOs, there are still coverage and capacity planning problems at remote locations. This is because,in most cases, the population density and return-of-investments are low in those areas. In this paper, radio accessnetwork (RAN) sharing paradigm is utilized on experimental sites in Turkey to accommodate user equipment of multiplenetwork operators under the same cell sites. We first investigate characteristics, benefits, and limitations of two differentRAN sharing deployment scenarios. Then, a city-wide …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, transconductance gain of current differencing transconductance amplifier (CDTA) has been boosted by using a novel approach. Transconductance is generally varied by two well-known techniques. In the first technique, bias current of differential pair MOSFETs is varied whereas in the second technique, aspect ratios of differential pair MOSFETs are changed. The drawbacks of first technique are limited range of transconductance and higher power dissipation whereas second technique restricts dynamic range, output swing and bandwidth of CDTA. To overcome these drawbacks, 2 new structures of CDTA, namely high transconductance gain CDTAs (HTG-CDTA-I & HTG-CDTA-II) have been proposed. HTG-CDTA-I utilizes …
