Improving The Efficiency Of Dnn Hardware Accelerator By Replacing Digitalfeature Extractor With An Imprecise Neuromorphic Hardware, Majid Mohammadi Rad, Omid Sojodishijani Jan 2020

Improving The Efficiency Of Dnn Hardware Accelerator By Replacing Digitalfeature Extractor With An Imprecise Neuromorphic Hardware, Majid Mohammadi Rad, Omid Sojodishijani

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Mixed-signal in-memory computation can drastically improve the efficiency of the hardware implementing machine learning (ML) algorithms by (i) removing the need to fetch neural network parameters from internal or external memory and (ii) performing a large number of multiply-accumulate operations in parallel. However, this boost in efficiency comes with some disadvantages. Among them, the inability to precisely program nonvolatile memory devices (NVM) with neural network parameters and sensitivity to noise prevent the mixed-signal hardware to perform a precise and deterministic computation. Unfortunately, these hardware-specific errors can get magnified while propagating along with the layers of the deep neural network. In …


Filter Design For Small Target Detection On Infrared Imagery Using Normalized-Cross-Correlation Layer, Hüseyi̇n Seçki̇n Demi̇r, Erdem Akagündüz Jan 2020

Filter Design For Small Target Detection On Infrared Imagery Using Normalized-Cross-Correlation Layer, Hüseyi̇n Seçki̇n Demi̇r, Erdem Akagündüz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

n this paper, we introduce a machine learning approach to the problem of infrared small target detection filter design. For this purpose, similar to a convolutional layer of a neural network, the normalized-cross-correlational (NCC) layer, which we utilize for designing a target detection/recognition filter bank, is proposed. By employing the NCC layer in a neural network structure, we introduce a framework, in which supervised training is used to calculate the optimal filter shape and the optimum number of filters required for a specific target detection/recognition task on infrared images. We also propose the mean-absolute-deviation NCC (MAD-NCC) layer, an efficient implementation …


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 …


Efficient Turkish Tweet Classification System For Crisis Response, Saed Alqaraleh, Merve Işik Jan 2020

Efficient Turkish Tweet Classification System For Crisis Response, Saed Alqaraleh, Merve Işik

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a convolutional neural networks Turkish tweet classification system for crisis response. This system has the ability to classify the present information before or during any crisis. In addition, a preprocessing model was also implemented and integrated as a part of the developed system. This paper presents the first ever Turkish tweet dataset for crisis response, which can be widely used and improve similar studies. This dataset has been carefully preprocessed, annotated, and well organized. It is suitable to be used by all the well-known natural language processing tools. Extensive experimental work, using our produced Turkish tweet dataset …


Applying Deep Learning Models To Structural Mri For Stage Prediction Of Alzheimer's Disease, Altuğ Yi̇ği̇t, Zerri̇n Işik Jan 2020

Applying Deep Learning Models To Structural Mri For Stage Prediction Of Alzheimer's Disease, Altuğ Yi̇ği̇t, Zerri̇n Işik

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Alzheimer's disease is a brain disease that causes impaired cognitive abilities in memory, concentration, planning, and speaking. Alzheimer's disease is defined as the most common cause of dementia and changes different parts of the brain. Neuroimaging, cerebrospinal fluid, and some protein abnormalities are commonly used as clinical diagnostic biomarkers. In this study, neuroimaging biomarkers were applied for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and dementia as a noninvasive method. Structural magnetic resonance (MR) brain images were used as input of the predictive model. T1 weighted volumetric MR images were reduced to two-dimensional space by several preprocessing methods for three different projections. …


Context-Aware System For Glycemic Control In Diabetic Patients Using Neural Networks, Owais Bhat, Dawood A. Khan Jan 2020

Context-Aware System For Glycemic Control In Diabetic Patients Using Neural Networks, Owais Bhat, Dawood A. Khan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Diabetic patients are quite hesitant in engaging in normal physiological activities due to difficulties associated with diabetes management. Over the last few decades, there have been advancements in the computational power of embedded systems and glucose sensing technologies. These advancements have attracted the attention of researchers around the globe developing automatic insulin delivery systems. In this paper, a method of closed-loop control of diabetes based on neural networks is proposed. These neural networks are used for making predictions based on the clinical data of a patient. A neural network feedback controller is also designed to provide a glycemic response by …
