A Novel Fibonacci Hash Method For Protein Family Identification By Usingrecurrent Neural Networks, Talha Burak Alakuş, İbrahi̇m Türkoğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Identification and classification of protein families are one of the most significant problem in bioinformatics and protein studies. It is essential to specify the family of a protein since proteins are highly used in smart drug therapies, protein functions, and, in some cases, phylogenetic trees. Some sequencing techniques provide researchers to identify the biological similarities of protein families and functions. Yet, determining these families with sequencing applications requires huge amount of time. Thus, a computer and artificial intelligence based classification system is needed to save time and avoid complexity in protein classification process. In order to designate the protein families …

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.

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 …

Dynamic Issue Queue Capping For Simultaneous Multithreaded Processors, Merve Güney, Büşra Kuru, Sercan Sari, İsa Ahmet Güney, Gürhan Küçük

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A simultaneous multithreaded (SMT) processor mixes multiple instruction streams in its superscalar out-of-order execution core for higher throughput. To achieve this, a superscalar processor is modified in such a way that someof its resources are duplicated and the rest is shared among multiple threads. The issue queue (IQ), which holds allwaiting instructions until they become ready and scheduled for execution, is among these shared resources. A baselineunmanaged IQ can give an unexpectedly low performance since a hungry thread can tie up most of the IQ entries.This type of scenario is also worse in terms of the fairness metric since some …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Human cornea is the front see-through shield of the eye. It refracts light onto the retina to induce vision.Therefore, any defect in the cornea may lead to vision disturbance. This deficiency is estimated by sets of topographicalimages measured, and assessed by an ophthalmologist. Consequently, an important priority is the early and accuratediagnosis of diseases that may affect corneal integrity through the use of machine learning algorithms. Images producedby a Pentacam device can be subjected to rotation or some distortion during acquisition; therefore, accurate diagnosisrequires the use of local features in the image. Accordingly, a new algorithm called subbands wavelet for …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Outdoor captured scenes are degraded by atmospheric particles and water droplets. Due to scattering andabsorption effects in the atmosphere, degraded images lose contrast and color fidelity. Performances of the computervision algorithms are bound to suffer from low-contrast scene radiance. In many single-image dehazing models, thelarger the deviation in estimation of the key parameters such as transmission map and atmospheric light, the higherthe halo artifacts and loss of fine details in the dehazed image. The available models assume that the scattering lightis independent of wavelength, as the size of the atmospheric particles is larger compared to the wavelength of light.The model …
