Impulse Noise Removal By K-Means Clustering Identified Fuzzy Filter: A Newapproach, Aritra Bandyopadhyay, Kaustuv Deb, Atanu Das, Rajib Bag

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Removal of impulse noise from corrupted digital images has been a hitch in the field of image processing. Random nature of impulse noise makes the task of noise removal more critical. Different filters have been designed for noise removal purpose and have shown formidable results mostly for low and medium level noise densities. In this paper, a new two-stage technique called k-means clustering identified fuzzy filter (KMCIFF) is proposed for de-noising gray-scale images. KMCIFF consists of a k-Means clustering-based high density impulse noise detection, followed by a fuzzy logic-oriented noise removal mechanism. In the detection process, a 5 $\times$ 5 …

A Supervised Learning Approach For Detecting Erroneoussamples In Embeddings, Görkem Saygili

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Visualizing multidimensional data has been a crucial task in recent years regarding the growing amount of data from various sources. To achieve this, dimensionality reduction algorithms have been used to reduce the number of dimensions for visualization of the data on a screen. However, these algorithms may fail to faithfully represent high dimensional data in lower dimensions and eventually lead to erroneous visualizations. In this work, we propose an error detection algorithm for dimensionality reduction algorithms based on recently developed error prediction algorithms for medical image registration. The proposed algorithm matches the neighborhoods of high and low dimensional data with …

Gabor Filter-Based Localization Of Straight And Curved Needlesin 2d Ultrasound Images, Mert Kaya, Abdurrahman Enes Şenel, Özkan Bebek

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

2D ultrasound (US) is one of the most commonly used medical imaging devices for needle localization in biopsies. However, the produced images are low-resolution and contain an excessive number of artifacts, which makes the needle localization challenging. Image processing techniques can help resolve this issue. This paper presents a novel Gabor filter-based method for needle localization in 2D US images, which enhances the needle outline in the images while suppressing other structures. The scheme works in two stages: First, the Gabor filter is applied to the image, the needle insertion angle is estimated, and the needle trajectory is found using …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This research article proposes two different variants of variable gain higher-order sliding mode control (HOSMC) strategy for a variable-speed wind energy conversion system (WECS) based on a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). The main objective is to extract the maximum wind power with reduced chattering and mechanical stress. The main flaw of the classical sliding mode control (SMC) is the high-frequency switching, called chattering, which is alleviated by employing HOSMC strategies. The control law design is based on a super-twisting algorithm (STA) and a real-twisting algorithm (RTA) with variable gains. The proposed control techniques inherit the property of robustness and …

Distribution Network Reconfiguration Based On Artificial Networkreconfiguration For Variable Load Profile, Hesham Hanie Youssef, Hazlie Bin Mokhlis, Mohamad Sofian Abu Talip, Mohammad Alsamman, Munir Azam Muhammad, Nurulafiqah Nadzirah Mansor

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Network reconfiguration is a process to change the open-switches in distribution system for a minimum power loss. In the past, metaheuristic techniques were applied widely for network reconfiguration with consideration of a fixed loading profile. When the loading changes, the current configuration may not be the optimal one. Thus, the technique needs to be executed to find a new optimal configuration based on the latest loading. The process is time-consuming since metaheuristic techniques commonly require high computational times and produces inconsistent results. Therefore, this paper proposes a network reconfiguration technique based on artificial neural network (ANN) for variable loading conditions. …

Exhaustive Hard Triplet Mining Loss For Person Re-Identification, Chao Xu, Xiang Sun, Ziliang Chen, Shoubiao Tan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Person reidentification (Re-ID) is an important task in computer vision and has many applications in videobased surveillance. Recently, the triplet loss has been popular in the deep learning framework for person Re-ID. It is particularly important to note that the selection of hard triplets has significant influence on the performance of the learned deep model. However, the existing triplet losses only focus on some specific forms of hard triplets, thus leading to weaker generalization capability. To address this issue, we propose a novel variant of the triplet loss, named exhaustive hard triplet mining loss (EHTM), which is able to deal …

A Regular Expression Generator Based On Css Selectors For Efficient Extraction From Html Pages, Erdi̇nç Uzun

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Cascading style sheets (CSS) selectors are patterns used to select HTML elements. They are often preferred in web data extraction because they are easy to prepare and have short expressions. In order to be able to extract data from web pages by using these patterns, a document object model (DOM) tree is constructed by an HTML parser for a webpage. The construction process of this tree and the extraction process using this tree increase time and memory costs depending on the number of HTML elements and their hierarchies.
