Motion Clustering On Video Sequences Using A Competitive Learning Network, Sali̇h Görgünoğlu, Şafak Altay Jan 2014

Motion Clustering On Video Sequences Using A Competitive Learning Network, Sali̇h Görgünoğlu, Şafak Altay

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

It is necessary to track human movements in crowded places and environments such as stations, subways, metros, and schoolyards, where security is of great importance. As a result, undesired injuries, accidents, and unusual movements can be determined and various precautionary measures can be taken against them. In this study, real-time or existing video sequences are used within the system. These video sequences are obtained from objects such as humans or vehicles, moving actively in various environments. At first, some preprocesses are made respectively, such as converting gray scale, finding the edges of the objects existing in the images, and thresholding …

Email is the most common and comparatively the most efficient means of exchanging information in today's world. However, given the widespread use of emails in all sectors, they have been the target of spammers since the beginning. Filtering spam emails has now led to critical actions such as forensic activities based on mining spam email. The data mine for spam emails at the University of Alabama at Birmingham is considered to be one of the most prominent resources for mining and identifying spam sources. It is a widely researched repository used by researchers from different global organizations. The usual process …


M-Fdbscan: A Multicore Density-Based Uncertain Data Clustering Algorithm, Atakan Erdem, Taflan İmre Gündem Jan 2014

M-Fdbscan: A Multicore Density-Based Uncertain Data Clustering Algorithm, Atakan Erdem, Taflan İmre Gündem

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In many data mining applications, we use a clustering algorithm on a large amount of uncertain data. In this paper, we adapt an uncertain data clustering algorithm called fast density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (FDBSCAN) to multicore systems in order to have fast processing. The new algorithm, which we call multicore FDBSCAN (M-FDBSCAN), splits the data domain into c rectangular regions, where c is the number of cores in the system. The FDBSCAN algorithm is then applied to each rectangular region simultaneously. After the clustering operation is completed, semiclusters that occur during splitting are detected and merged to …
