Image captioning is known as a fundamental computer vision task aiming to figure out and describe what is happening in an image or image region. Through an image captioning process, it is ensured to describe and define the actions and the relations of the objects within the images. In this manner, the contents of the images can be understood and interpreted automatically by visual computing systems. In this paper, we proposed the TRCaptionNet a novel deep learning-based Turkish image captioning (TIC) model for the automatic generation of Turkish captions. The model we propose essentially consists of a basic image encoder, …

Feature Distillation From Vision-Language Model For Semisupervised Action Classification, Asli Çeli̇k, Ayhan Küçükmani̇sa, Oğuzhan Urhan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The training of supervised machine learning approaches is critically dependent on annotating large-scale datasets. Semisupervised learning approaches aim to achieve compatible performance with supervised methods using relatively less annotation without sacrificing good generalization capacity. In line with this objective, ways of leveraging unlabeled data have been the subject of intense research. However, semisupervised video action recognition has received relatively less attention compared to image domain implementations. Existing semisupervised video action recognition methods trained from scratch rely heavily on augmentation techniques, complex architectures, and/or the use of other modalities while distillation-based methods use models that have only been trained for 2D …

Cognitive Load Detection Using Ci-Ssa For Eeg Signal Decomposition And Nature-Inspired Feature Selection, Jammisetty Yedukondalu, Lakhan Dev Sharma

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Cognitive load detection is eminent during the mental assignment of neural activity because it indicates how the brain reacts to stimuli. The level of cognitive load experienced during mental arithmetic tasks can be determined using an electroencephalogram (EEG). The EEG data were collected from publicly available datasets, namely, mental arithmetic task (MAT) and simultaneous task workload (STEW). The first phase comprises decomposing the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using circulant singular spectrum analysis (Ci-SSA). In the second phase, entropy-based features were evaluated using IMFs. After that, the extracted features were fed to nature-inspired feature selection algorithms: genetic …

Dyslexia is a learning disorder, characterized by impairment in the ability to read, spell, and decode letters. It is vital to detect dyslexia in earlier stages to reduce its effects. However, diagnosing dyslexia is a time-consuming and costly process. In this paper, we propose a machine-learning model that predicts whether a Turkish-speaking child has dyslexia using his/her audio records. Therefore, our model can be easily used by smart phones and work as a warning system such that children who are likely to be dyslexic according to our model can seek an examination by experts.

Stepwise Dynamic Nearest Neighbor (Sdnn): A New Algorithm For Classification, Deni̇z Karabaş, Derya Bi̇rant, Peli̇n Yildirim Taşer

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Although the standard k-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm has been used widely for classification in many different fields, it suffers from various limitations that abate its classification ability, such as being influenced by the distribution of instances, ignoring distances between the test instance and its neighbors during classification, and building a single/weak learner. This paper proposes a novel algorithm, called stepwise dynamic nearest neighbor (SDNN), which can effectively handle these problems. Instead of using a fixed parameter k like KNN, it uses a dynamic neighborhood strategy according to the data distribution and implements a new voting mechanism, called stepwise voting. Experimental …

Direct Pore-Based Identification For Fingerprint Matching Process, Vedat Delican, Behçet Uğur Töreyi̇n, Ege Çeti̇n, Ayli̇n Yalçin Saribey

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Fingerprints are one of the most important scientific proof instruments in solving forensic cases. Identification in fingerprints consists of three levels based on the flow direction of the papillary lines at the first level, the minutiae points at the second level, and the pores at the third level. The inadequacy of existing imaging systems in detecting fingerprints and the lack of pore details at the desired level limit the widespread use of third-level identification. The fact that fingerprints with images based on pores in the unsolved database are not subjected to any evaluation criteria and remain in the database reveals …

Deep neural networks have recently made remarkable achievements in computer vision applications. However, the high computational requirements needed to achieve accurate inference results can be a significant barrier to deploying DNNs on resource-constrained computing devices, such as those found in the Internet-of-things. In this work, we propose a fresh approach called adaptive channel skipping (ACS) that prioritizes the identification of the most suitable channels for skipping and implements an efficient skipping mechanism during inference. We begin with the development of a new gating network model, ACS-GN, which employs fine-grained channel-wise skipping to enable input-dependent inference and achieve a desirable balance …


Joint Intent Detection And Slot Filling For Turkish Natural Language Understanding, Osman Büyük Sep 2023

Joint Intent Detection And Slot Filling For Turkish Natural Language Understanding, Osman Büyük

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Intent detection and slot filling are two crucial subtasks of a text-based goal-oriented dialogue system. In a goal-oriented dialogue system, users interact with the system to complete a goal (or to fulfill their intent) and provide the necessary information (slot values) to achieve that goal. Therefore, a user?s text input includes information about the user?s intent and contains required slot values. Recently, joint models that simultaneously detect the intent and extract the slots are proposed to benefit from the interaction between the two tasks. The proposed methods are usually tested using benchmark data sets in English such as ATIS and …
