Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Tyrosine, tryptophan, and phenylalanine are important aromatic amino acids for human health. If they are not properly metabolized, severe rare mental or metabolic diseases can emerge, many of which are not researched enough due to economic priorities. In our previous simulations, all three of these amino acids are discovered to be self-organizing and to have complex aggregations at different temperatures. Two of these essential stable formations are observed during our simulations: tubular-like and spherical-like structures. In this study, we develop and implement a clustering analyzing algorithm using density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) to measure the shapes of …

Collective Hydrodynamics Of Robotic Fish, Rohit S. Pandhare Jan 2022

Collective Hydrodynamics Of Robotic Fish, Rohit S. Pandhare

Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports

Many animals in nature travel in groups either for protection, survival, or endurance. Among these, fish do so under the burden of hydrodynamic loads, which incites questions as to the significance of the multi-body fluid-mediated interactions that facilitate collective swimming. We study such interactions in the idealized setting of a rotational array of robotic fish whose tails undergo a prescribed flapping motion, but whose swimming speed is determined as a natural result of the hydrodynamic effects. Specifically, we examine how the measured collective speed of the swimmers varies with the imposed frequency and amplitude of their tail flapping, and with …

Optimized Cancer Detection On Various Magnified Histopathological Colon Imagesbased On Dwt Features And Fcm Clustering, Tina Babu, Tripty Singh, Deepa Gupta, Shahin Hameed

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Due to the morphological characteristics and other biological aspects in histopathological images, the computerized diagnosis of colon cancer in histopathology images has gained popularity. The images acquired using the histopathology microscope may differ for greater visibility by magnifications. This causes a change in morphological traits leading to intra and inter-observer variability. An automatic colon cancer diagnosis system for various magnification is therefore crucial. This work proposes a magnification independent segmentation approach based on the connected component area and double density dual tree DWT (discrete wavelet transform) coefficients are derived from the segmented region. The derived features are reduced further shortened …

Fft Enabled Ecc For Wsn Nodes Without Hardware Multiplier Support, Utku Gülen, Selçuk Baktir Jan 2022

Fft Enabled Ecc For Wsn Nodes Without Hardware Multiplier Support, Utku Gülen, Selçuk Baktir

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

ECC is a popular cryptographic algorithm for key distribution in wireless sensor networks where power efficiency is desirable. A power efficient implementation of ECC without using hardware multiplier support was proposed earlier for wireless sensor nodes. The proposed implementation utilized the number theoretic transform to carry operands to the frequency domain, and conducted Montgomery multiplication, in addition to other finite field operations, in that domain. With this work, we perform in the frequency domain only polynomial multiplication and use the fast Fourier transform to carry operands between the time and frequency domains. Our ECC implementation over $GF((2^{13}-1)^{13})$ on the MSP430 …

An Effective Prediction Method For Network State Information In Sd-Wan, Erdal Akin, Ferdi̇ Saraç, Ömer Aslan Jan 2022

An Effective Prediction Method For Network State Information In Sd-Wan, Erdal Akin, Ferdi̇ Saraç, Ömer Aslan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In a software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), a logically centralized controller is responsible for computing and installing paths in order to transfer packets among geographically distributed locations and remote users. Accordingly, this would necessitate obtaining the global view and dynamic network state information (NSI) of the network. Therefore, the centralized controller periodically collects link-state information from each port of each switch at fixed time periods. While collecting NSI in short periods causes protocol overhead on the controller, collecting in longer periods leads to obtaining inaccurate NSI. In both cases, packet losses are inevitable, which is not preferred for quality of …

Temporal Bagging: A New Method For Time-Based Ensemble Learning, Göksu Tüysüzoğlu, Derya Bi̇rant, Volkan Kiranoğlu Jan 2022

Temporal Bagging: A New Method For Time-Based Ensemble Learning, Göksu Tüysüzoğlu, Derya Bi̇rant, Volkan Kiranoğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

One of the main problems associated with the bagging technique in ensemble learning is its random sample selection in which all samples are treated with the same chance of being selected. However, in time-varying dynamic systems, the samples in the training set have not equal importance, where the recent samples contain more useful and accurate information than the former ones. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a new time-based ensemble learning method, called temporal bagging (T-Bagging). The significant advantage of our method is that it assigns larger weights to more recent samples with respect to older ones, so it …

Learning Representations For Human Identification, Sinan Sabri Jan 2022

Learning Representations For Human Identification, Sinan Sabri

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

Long-duration visual tracking of people requires the ability to link track snippets (a.k.a. tracklets) based on the identity of people. In lack of the availability of motion priors or hard biometrics (e.g., face, fingerprint, or iris), the common practice is to leverage soft biometrics for matching tracklets corresponding to the same person in different sightings. A common choice is to use the whole-body visual appearance of the person, as determined by the clothing, which is assumed to not change during tracking. The problem is challenging because distinct images of the same person may look very different, since no restrictions are …

A Practical Approach To Automated Software Correctness Enhancement, Aleksandr Zakharchenko Dec 2021

A Practical Approach To Automated Software Correctness Enhancement, Aleksandr Zakharchenko

Dissertations

To repair an incorrect program does not mean to make it correct; it only means to make it more-correct, in some sense, than it is. In the absence of a concept of relative correctness, i.e. the property of a program to be more-correct than another with respect to a specification, the discipline of program repair has resorted to various approximations of absolute (traditional) correctness, with varying degrees of success. This shortcoming is concealed by the fact that most program repair tools are tested on basic cases, whence making them absolutely correct is not clearly distinguishable from making them relatively more-correct. …
