Metric Learning Via Linear Embeddings For Human Motion Recognition, Byoungdoo Kong Dec 2020

Metric Learning Via Linear Embeddings For Human Motion Recognition, Byoungdoo Kong

Masters Theses

We consider the application of Few-Shot Learning (FSL) and dimensionality reduction to the problem of human motion recognition (HMR). The structure of human motion has unique characteristics such as its dynamic and high-dimensional nature. Recent research on human motion recognition uses deep neural networks with multiple layers. Most importantly, large datasets will need to be collected to use such networks to analyze human motion. This process is both time-consuming and expensive since a large motion capture database must be collected and labeled. Despite significant progress having been made in human motion recognition, state-of-the-art algorithms still misclassify actions because of characteristics …

Approaches to the formation and identification of features of Orthoptera species and the formation of training and control samples of their samples are proposed. Estimation algorithms (ACE) were chosen as algorithmic support for identifying Orthoptera collections. ACE is based on the principle of partial priority. Approaches to the formation of a training and testing complex based on the data from the …


Dynamically Updated Diversified Ensemble-Based Approach For Handling Concept Drift, Kanu Goel, Shalini Batra Jan 2020

Dynamically Updated Diversified Ensemble-Based Approach For Handling Concept Drift, Kanu Goel, Shalini Batra

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Concept drift is the phenomenon where underlying data distribution changes over time unexpectedly. Examining such drifts and getting insight into the executing processes at that instance of time is a big challenge. Prediction models should be capable of handling drifts in scenarios where statistical properties show abrupt changes. Various strategies exist in the literature to deal with such challenging scenarios but the majority of them are limited to the identification of a particular kind of drift pattern. The proposed approach uses online drift detection in a diversified adaptive setting with pruning techniques to formulate a concept drift handling approach, named …


A Random Subspace Based Conic Functions Ensemble Classifier, Emre Çi̇men Jan 2020

A Random Subspace Based Conic Functions Ensemble Classifier, Emre Çi̇men

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Classifiers overfit when the data dimensionality ratio to the number of samples is high in a dataset. This problem makes a classification model unreliable. When the overfitting problem occurs, one can achieve high accuracy in the training; however, test accuracy occurs significantly less than training accuracy. The random subspace method is a practical approach to overcome the overfitting problem. In random subspace methods, the classification algorithm selects a random subset of the features and trains a classifier function trained with the selected features. The classification algorithm repeats the process multiple times, and eventually obtains an ensemble of classifier functions. Conic …


Revised Polyhedral Conic Functions Algorithm For Supervised Classification, Gürhan Ceylan, Gürkan Öztürk Jan 2020

Revised Polyhedral Conic Functions Algorithm For Supervised Classification, Gürhan Ceylan, Gürkan Öztürk

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In supervised classification, obtaining nonlinear separating functions from an algorithm is crucial for prediction accuracy. This paper analyzes the polyhedral conic functions (PCF) algorithm that generates nonlinear separating functions by only solving simple subproblems. Then, a revised version of the algorithm is developed that achieves better generalization and fast training while maintaining the simplicity and high prediction accuracy of the original PCF algorithm. This is accomplished by making the following modifications to the subproblem: extension of the objective function with a regularization term, relaxation of a hard constraint set and introduction of a new error term. Experimental results show that …


Detection Of Hand Osteoarthritis From Hand Radiographs Using Convolutionalneural Networks With Transfer Learning, Kemal Üreten, Hasan Erbay, Hadi̇ Hakan Maraş Jan 2020

Detection Of Hand Osteoarthritis From Hand Radiographs Using Convolutionalneural Networks With Transfer Learning, Kemal Üreten, Hasan Erbay, Hadi̇ Hakan Maraş

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis. Hand osteoarthritis leads to specific structural changes in the joints, such as asymmetric joint space narrowing and osteophytes (bone spurs). Conventional radiography has traditionally been the primary method of visualizing these structural changes and diagnosing osteoarthritis. We aimed to develop a computerized method that is capable of determining the structural changes seen in radiography of the hand and to assist practitioners in interpreting radiographic changes and diagnosing the disease. In this retrospective study, transfer-learning-based convolutional neural networks were trained on a randomly selected dataset containing 332 radiography images of hands from an …


Prediction Of Molecular Mutations In Diffuse Low-Grade Gliomas Using Mr Imaging Features, Zeina A. Shboul, James Chen, Khan M. Iftekharrudin Jan 2020

Prediction Of Molecular Mutations In Diffuse Low-Grade Gliomas Using Mr Imaging Features, Zeina A. Shboul, James Chen, Khan M. Iftekharrudin

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Diffuse low-grade gliomas (LGG) have been reclassified based on molecular mutations, which require invasive tumor tissue sampling. Tissue sampling by biopsy may be limited by sampling error, whereas non-invasive imaging can evaluate the entirety of a tumor. This study presents a non-invasive analysis of low-grade gliomas using imaging features based on the updated classification. We introduce molecular (MGMT methylation, IDH mutation, 1p/19q co-deletion, ATRX mutation, and TERT mutations) prediction methods of low-grade gliomas with imaging. Imaging features are extracted from magnetic resonance imaging data and include texture features, fractal and multi-resolution fractal texture features, and volumetric features. Training models include …

A Novel Genome Analysis Method With The Entropy-Based Numerical Techniqueusing Pretrained Convolutional Neural Networks, Bi̇hter Daş, Suat Toraman, İbrahi̇m Türkoğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The identification of DNA sequences as exon and intron is a common problem in genome analysis. The methods used for feature extraction and mapping techniques for the digitization of sequences affect directly the solution of this problem. The existing mapping techniques are not enough to detect coding and noncoding regions in some genomes because the digital representation of each base in a DNA sequence with an integer does not fully reflect the structure of an original DNA sequence. In the entropy-based mapping technique, we could overcome this problem because the technique deepens distinction rates of exon regions, and better reflects …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In digital system design, digital logic circuit diagrams are built using interconnects and symbolic representations of the basic logic gates. Constructing such diagrams using free sketches is the first step in the design process. After that the circuit schematic or code has to be generated before being able to simulate the design. While most of the mentioned steps are automated using design automation tools, drafting the schematic circuit and then converting it into a valid format that can be simulated are still done manually due to the lack of robust tools that can recognize the free sketches and incorporate them …
