Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In bilateral control applications, time delays in the communication channel have destabilizing effects and cause degradations in the performance of the system. In this paper, a sliding mode observer is used in conjunction with a disturbance observer to predict states of the slave system. Predicted states are then used in control formulation. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed method avoids instability due to time delays in bilateral operation and provides satisfactory performance.

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This study presents a recurrent neural network (RNN)-based nonlinear state estimator that uses an Elman neural network structure (ENN) for state estimation of a squirrel-cage induction motor. The proposed algorithm only uses the measurements of the stator currents and the rotor angular speed, and it learns the dynamic behavior of the state observer from these measurements through prediction error minimization. A squirrel-cage induction motor was fed from sinusoidal, 6-step, and pulse-width modulation (PWM) supply sources at different times in order to observe the performance of the proposed estimator for different operation conditions. Estimation results showed that the proposed algorithm is …

The replacement of in-service induction motors with more efficient ones is a very important strategy for energy savings and consequently nearly 30 different methods have been used to determine the efficiency of induction motors in the last 2 decades. This paper aims to develop the efficiency determination of a 20 Hp submersible induction motor. Due to getting perfect efficiency of the submersible induction motor, a robust hybrid evolutionary optimization technique, which consists of a genetic algorithm and simulated annealing, is used.

Unmanned air vehicles (UAV) and especially quadrocopters have drawn great attention in recent years because of their maneuverability and nonlinear control problem. Most of the related research concentrate on control; yet, design and communication are also some sub-topics. In this paper, a stationary, four rotor air vehicle with limited/controlled degree of freedom is constructed so that various control algorithms and their changing effects with varying vehicle dynamics can be studied on the ground for safety purposes. Ascending/descending, pitch/yaw/roll motions can be limited by setting the vehicle's degree of freedom mechanically, resulting better net observability of the control algorithms on the …

The observer is comparably simple and robust relative to the previously developed observers, and yet suitable for online implementation. Simulation studies for the proposed method were conducted in a MATLAB environment. Observer constants and the control parameters were tuned during the simulation studies and used during the experimental study stage. Experimental verification of the …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The economical and secure operation of power systems has significant importance. Due to technical limitations, the best economical operation point is not always the desired operating point for system stability or power losses. In this study, first, the most economical operating point is obtained by solving the non-linear, network-constrained economic dispatch problem using a genetic algorithm. Then, the system voltage stability is analyzed to compare the different possible operating points using V-Q sensitivity analysis. The power losses, obtained for various operating points, are considered the third objective function. Finally, these 3 aspects of cost, voltage stability, and power losses are …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a new algorithm using 2DPCA and Gram-Schmidt Orthogonalization Procedure for recognition of face images is proposed. The algorithm consists of two parts. In the first part, a common feature matrix is obtained; and in the second part, the dimension of the common feature matrix is reduced. Resulting common feature matrix with reduced dimension is used for face recognition. Column and row covariance matrices are obtained by applying 2DPCA on the column and row vectors of images, respectively. The algorithm then applies eigenvalue-eigenvector decomposition to each of these two covariance matrices. Total scatter maximization is achieved taking the …

Change Detection Without Difference Image Computation Based On Multiobjective Cost Function Optimization, Turgay Çeli̇k, Zeki̇ Yetgi̇n
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we propose a novel method for unsupervised change detection in multi-temporal satellite images by using multiobjective cost function optimization via genetic algorithm (GA). The spatial image grid of the input multi-temporal satellite images is divided into two distinct regions, representing ``changed'' and ``unchanged'' regions between input images, via the intermediate change detection mask produced by the GA. The dissimilarity of pixels of ``changed'' regions and similarity of pixels of ``unchanged'' regions between input multi-temporal images are measured using image quality metrics which consider correlation, spectral distortion, radiometric distortion, and contrast distortion. The contextual information of each pixel …

Investigation Of Luhn's Claim On Information Retrieval, İlker Kocabaş, Beki̇r Taner Di̇nçer, Bahar Karaoğlan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this study, we show how Luhn's claim about the degree of importance of a word in a document can be related to information retrieval. His basic idea is transformed into z-scores as the weights of terms for the purpose of modeling term frequency (tf) within documents. The Luhn-based models represented in this paper are considered as the TF component of proposed TF \times IDF weighing schemes. Moreover, the final term weighting functions appropriate for the TF \times IDF weighting scheme are applied to TREC-6, -7, and -8 databases. The experimental results show relevance to Luhn's claim by having high …
Statistical Significance Based Graph Cut Regularization For Medical Image Segmentation, Sema Candemi̇r, Yusuf Si̇nan Akgül
Statistical Significance Based Graph Cut Regularization For Medical Image Segmentation, Sema Candemi̇r, Yusuf Si̇nan Akgül
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Graph cut minimization formulates the image segmentation as a linear combination of problem constraints. The salient constraints of the computer vision problems are data and smoothness which are combined through a regularization parameter. The main task of the regularization parameter is to determine the weight of the smoothness constraint on the graph energy. However, the difference in functional forms of the constraints forces the regularization weight to balance the inharmonious relationship between the constraints. This paper proposes a new idea: bringing the data and smoothness terms on the common base decreases the difference between the constraint functions. Therefore the regularization …

Line Detection With Adaptive Random Samples, Ali̇ Cafer Gürbüz
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper examines the detection of parameterized shapes in multidimensional noisy grayscale images. A novel shape detection algorithm utilizing random sample theory is presented. Although the method can be generalized, line detection is detailed. Each line in the image corresponds to a point in the line parameter space. The method creates hypothesis lines by randomly selecting parameter space points and tests the surrounding regions for acceptable linear features. The information obtained from each randomly selected line is used to update the parameter distribution, which reducesi the required number of random trials. The selected lines are re-estimated within a smaller search …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Current hand prostheses are mostly driven by electromyography (EMG) signal, and existing experiments have proved that multichannel EMG signal controls are not suitable due to early fatigue problems and high effort requirements to perform even simple activities. Therefore, in this study we present a new voice-controlled active hand prosthesis to perform several basic tasks. We first designed a novel multifingered prosthetic hand with the ability of picking up and releasing objects. The prosthetic hand employs 3 DC motors and gears to transfer motion to the linked iparts of the fingers. We used flexible thin-film resistive force sensors at the fingertips …

Design And Evaluation Of A Query-Based Jamming Detection Algorithm For Wireless Sensor Networks, Murat Çakiroğlu, Ahmet Turan Özceri̇t
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Jamming attacks, which are the main cause of data corruption and network blockages in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), are one of the most serious threats for WSNs. This type of attack not only blocks the ongoing communication in the network, but also causes the wireless nodes to exhaust their energy much earlier than expected. A countermeasure must be deployed against jamming attacks, especially in military and medical applications in which security breaches cannot be tolerated. In this paper, we have designed a new query-based jamming detection algorithm (QUJDA) to detect jamming attacks occurring in WSNs. QUJDA is an attack detection …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Partial transmit sequence (PTS) is an attractive scheme for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems, but its high computational complexity to find optimum phase factors is the main drawback. In this paper, we propose PTS based on an artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm (ABC-PTS) for reducing the computational complexity of the PTS in the OFDM system. The ABC-PTS was compared to conventional PTS using a random search strategy (RS-PTS) and optimum PTS. In addition, the bit error rate (BER) performance of the ABC-PTS was shown when a high power amplifier (HPA) was used for …
Co-Occurrence Matrix And Its Statistical Features As A New Approach For Face Recognition, Alaa Eleyan, Hasan Demirel
Co-Occurrence Matrix And Its Statistical Features As A New Approach For Face Recognition, Alaa Eleyan, Hasan Demirel
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a new face recognition technique is introduced based on the gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM). GLCM represents the distributions of the intensities and the information about relative positions of neighboring pixels of an image. We proposed two methods to extract feature vectors using GLCM for face classification. The first method extracts the well-known Haralick features from the GLCM, and the second method directly uses GLCM by converting the matrix into a vector that can be used in the classification process. The results demonstrate that the second method, which uses GLCM directly, is superior to the first method that …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The insulating outer-sheath of ADSS (All dielectric self supporting) cables used on high voltage transmission lines are often subjected to various environmental effects. The ageing process of cable sheath can be investigated by using the dry-band arcing test method under laboratory conditions. Dry-band arcing is the most common technique to determine the ageing period of insulating materials. Environmental effects such as rain, humidity, dew and ice produce various amounts of wet regions on the cable surface. Electrical arcs and hence degradations are occurred on the cable surface due to the enhanced electrical field with formation of wet regions. In this …

Stray Magnetic Field Distributed Around A Pmsm, Ali̇ Ahmed Adam, Kayhan Gülez, Seli̇m Köroğlu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this work, the low frequency electromagnetic emission from permanent magnet synchronous motors is studied. The main objective is to provide a safety region for humans in the vicinity of these motors, especially as these motors are now being used widely in inhabited areas, where high flux densities are expected. In this study, a new proposed equivalent magnetic circuit is used to estimate the stray fields at the surface of the motor. The analysis showed that the emission of the stray field in the radial direction depends on the permeability of the stator body. Low values of permeability may result …
Cooperative Diversity With Continuous Phase Modulation, Ni̇yazi̇ Odabaşioğlu
Cooperative Diversity With Continuous Phase Modulation, Ni̇yazi̇ Odabaşioğlu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In recent years, there has been a vast amount of research on cooperative diversity due to its potential capacity increase. Almost all of the research has been based on linear modulation formats such as phase-shift keying (PSK) or quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). On the other hand, continuous phase modulation (CPM) promises impressive advantages relative to linear modulations for wireless communication systems. In this paper, a cooperative diversity scheme with space-time coded (STC) CPM is introduced. Both amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forward (DF) modes were considered for cooperation. Simulation results showed that the proposed system is very suitable for wireless fading channels, …

A Novel And Efficient Algorithm For Adaptive Filtering: Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm, Nurhan Karaboğa, Mehmet Bahadir Çeti̇nkaya
A Novel And Efficient Algorithm For Adaptive Filtering: Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm, Nurhan Karaboğa, Mehmet Bahadir Çeti̇nkaya
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The uni-modal error surfaces and intrinsic stable behaviors of adaptive finite impulse response (FIR) filters make gradient based algorithms very effective in the design of these filters. Gradient based design methods are well developed for the design of adaptive FIR filters and widely applied to the distinct areas such as noise cancellation, system identification and channel equalization. However, the studies on adaptive infinite impulse response (IIR) filters are not as common as adaptive FIR filters since the stability during the adaptation process may not be ensured in some applications, and the convergence to the optimal design is not always guaranteed …
Adaptive Wiener-Turbo Systems With Jpeg & Bit Plane Compressions In Image Transmission, Ersi̇n Göse
Adaptive Wiener-Turbo Systems With Jpeg & Bit Plane Compressions In Image Transmission, Ersi̇n Göse
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In recent years, for transmission of 2D colored images over the fading channels, a new scheme has been denoted as ``adaptive Wiener-turbo systems with JPEG & bit plane compressions'' (AW-TSwJBC). In this paper, the performance of AW-TSwJBC is introduced over Rician and Rayleigh fading channels. We benefited from the neighborhood relation of pixels for each color plane by using a new iterative block, the ``adaptive Wiener-turbo'' scheme, which employs a turbo decoder, JPEG encoder/decoders, and adaptive Wiener filtering. In our approach, we could also alter compression ratios due to the importance of the image to be transferred. Based on the …
A New Lvi Assisted Psfb Dc-Dc Converter, Ahmet Faruk Bakan
A New Lvi Assisted Psfb Dc-Dc Converter, Ahmet Faruk Bakan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this study, a new Phase Shifted Full Bridge (PSFB) Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) isolated dc-dc converter is proposed. In the proposed converter, resonant inductor is replaced with Linear Variable Inductor (LVI) that is controlled by output current. The soft switching operation range is increased and the dependency of ZVS operation on the load current is decreased. The required energy for ZVS operation at low current levels is obtained by means of the high value of the LVI. The value of LVI decreases approximately linearly with increasing current. At high current levels parasitic resonance and duty cycle loss are decreased. …

Imitation Of Basic Hand Preshapes By Fluid Based Method: Fluidics Formation Control, Umut Ti̇lki̇, İsmet Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref Erkmen
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a new approach is developed, avoiding the correspondence problem caused by the difference in embodiment between imitator and demonstrator in imitation learning. In our work, the imitator is a fluidic system of dynamics totally different than the imitatee, which is a human performing hand gestures. The fluidic system is composed of fluid particles, which are used for the discretization of the problem domain. In this work, we demonstrate the fluidics formation control so as to imitate by observation basic hand preshaping features. Our fluidic formation control is based on setting suitable parameters of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), …

Design And Ground Plane Optimization Of A Cpw-Fed Ultra-Wideband Antenna, Mohammed Al-Husseini, Ali Ramadan, Youssef Tawk, Ali El-Hajj, Karim Y. Kabalan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, an ultra-wideband antenna based on an egg-shaped conductor and a co-planar waveguide (CPW) feed is presented. The ground plane incorporates an egg-shaped slot with parametrized center and dimensions. By resizing the slot and moving its center, a slotted or a partial ground can be obtained. Based on this configuration, a parametric study that aims at achieving the best ultra-wideband (UWB) response of the antenna is done. The study shows that an excellent UWB response is achieved for a certain ground slot size, beyond which the response starts to degrade. However, as the slot size tends to infinity, …

Several communication techniques are investigated in the first part of this paper: software radio, cognitive radio and encrypted communications. State of the art of research on agile and reconfigurable filters, passive as well as active, necessary for transceivers is then made and various tables for comparison are given. In the third part, a new theory for a 2^{nd}-order frequency-agile filter is introduced. The center frequency of the filter is proportional to the gain of a feedback amplifier and thus can be tuned over a wide frequency range. This new theory is thereafter generalized to the n^{th}-class leading to a center …
