Hybrid Of Genetic Algorithm And Great Deluge Algorithm For Rough Set Attribute Reduction, Najmeh Sadat Jaddi, Salwani Abdullah
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The attribute reduction problem is the process of reducing unimportant attributes from a decision system to decrease the difficulty of data mining or knowledge discovery tasks. Many algorithms have been used to optimize this problem in rough set theory. The genetic algorithm (GA) is one of the algorithms that has already been applied to optimize this problem. This paper proposes 2 kinds of memetic algorithms, which are a hybridization of the GA, with 2 versions (linear and nonlinear) of the great deluge (GD) algorithm. The purpose of this hybridization is to investigate the ability of this local search algorithm to …

Estimation Of Fuel Cost Curve Parameters For Thermal Power Plants Using The Abc Algorithm, Yusuf Sönmez
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The solution accuracy of economic dispatch problems is associated with the accuracy of the fuel cost curve parameters. Therefore, updating of these parameters is a very important issue to further improve the final accuracy of economic dispatch problems. Estimating the parameters of the fuel cost curve may be the best solution for this issue. This paper presents an application of the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm to estimate the fuel cost curve parameters of thermal power plants. In the estimation problem, 1st-, 2nd-, and 3rd-order fuel cost functions are used, and the estimation problem is formulated as an optimization one. …
A Combined Protective Scheme For Fault Classification And Identification Of Faulty Section In Series Compensated Transmission Lines, Resul Çöteli̇
A Combined Protective Scheme For Fault Classification And Identification Of Faulty Section In Series Compensated Transmission Lines, Resul Çöteli̇
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The fault detection process is very difficult in transmission lines with a fixed series capacitor because of the nonlinear behavior of protection device and series-parallel resonance. This paper proposes a new method based on S-transform (ST) and support vector machines (SVMs) for fault classification and identification of a faulty section in a transmission line with a fixed series capacitor placed at the middle of the line. In the proposed method, the fault detection process is carried out by using distinctive features of 3-line signals (line voltages and currents) and zero sequence current. The relevant features of these signals are obtained …

Preserving Location Privacy For A Group Of Users, Maede Ashouri-Talouki, Ahmad Baraani Dastjerdi, Ali̇ Aydin Selçuk
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Location privacy is an interesting problem that has been receiving considerable attention. This problem has been widely discussed from the individual point of view; however, there exist only a few works that support location privacy for a group of users. In this paper we consider the problem of supporting location privacy for a group of users during the use of location-based services (LBSs). We assume a group of users who want to benefit from a LBS and find the nearest meeting place that minimizes their aggregate distance. Each user in this scenario wants to protect his or her location from …
Using The Csm And Vsm Techniques To Speed Up The Ica Algorithm Without A Loss Of Quality, Mahdi Mahdikhani, Mohammad Hosein Kahaei
Using The Csm And Vsm Techniques To Speed Up The Ica Algorithm Without A Loss Of Quality, Mahdi Mahdikhani, Mohammad Hosein Kahaei
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In blind source separation problems that are implemented based on the independent component analysis (ICA) algorithm, the separation speed and quality are related inversely. In this paper, the proposed algorithms eliminate this tradeoff by generating a faster separation while maintaining the quality. In the proposed algorithms, in each frequency bin and in all of the learning steps, the separation quality of the separating matrix is compared with another one that we define as a situated matrix, and the best matrix is considered as an initial separating matrix in the next learning step. In this paper, we propose 2 algorithms based …

Simulation Of Discrete Electromagnetic Propagation Model For Atmospheric Effects On Mobile Communication, Şaban Seli̇m Şeker, Fulya Kunter
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Wireless communication has become an important part of our lives, and atmospheric effects are one of the ultimate factors affecting quality of communication and satellite systems. In this study the attenuation in mobile communication due to atmospheric events like snow and rain is simulated using the discrete propagation model. In this work, spherical raindrop and oblate spheroid raindrop modeling are used. To check the validity of simulations, the commonly used and accepted ITU-R rain model is used. Oblate spheroid raindrop modeling produces results that are more compatible with ITU-R results, especially at frequencies higher than 50 GHz. At lower frequencies, …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Stuttering assessment through the manual classification of speech disfluencies is subjective, inconsistent, time-consuming, and prone to error. The aim of this paper is to compare the effectiveness of the 3 speech feature extraction methods, mel-frequency cepstral coefficients, linear predictive coding (LPC)-based cepstral parameters, and perceptual linear predictive (PLP) analysis, for classifying 2 types of speech disfluencies, repetition and prolongation, from recorded disfluent speech samples. Three different classifiers, the k-nearest neighbor classifier, linear discriminant analysis-based classifier, and support vector machine, are employed for the classification of speech disfluencies. Speech samples are taken from the University College London Archive of Stuttered Speech …

Prediction Of Emissions And Exhaust Temperature For Direct Injection Diesel Engine With Emulsified Fuel Using Ann, Görkem Kökkülünk, Erhan Akdoğan, Vezi̇r Ayhan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Exhaust gases have many effects on human beings and the environment. Therefore, they must be kept under control. The International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL), which is concerned with the prevention of marine pollution, limits the emissions according to the regulations. In Emission Control Area (ECA) regions, which are determined by MARPOL as ECAs, the emission rates should be controlled. Direct injection (DI) diesel engines are commonly used as a propulsion system on ships. The prediction and control of diesel engine emission rates is not an easy task in real time. Therefore, in this study, an …
A Novel Dynamic Bandwidth Selection Method For Thinning Noisy Point Clouds, Mehmet Öztürk, Zeynep Hasirci
A Novel Dynamic Bandwidth Selection Method For Thinning Noisy Point Clouds, Mehmet Öztürk, Zeynep Hasirci
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, we propose a dynamic bandwidth selection method for thinning noisy point clouds into curves. Due to the nonhomogeneous distribution of noise or varying curvature of the data, the thinning procedure requires a dynamically adjusted bandwidth along the curve. On the other hand, the selected local region must be sorted along a suitable direction vector for local curve fitting purposes. The contribution of this paper to the field is 2-folded: first, a normalized eigenvalue analysis-based method is used to determine the best local bandwidth. The second task is getting a good regression line of the local region for …
Minimal Controller Synthesis Algorithms With Output Feedback And Their Generalization, Ata Sevi̇nç
Minimal Controller Synthesis Algorithms With Output Feedback And Their Generalization, Ata Sevi̇nç
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper proposes several improvements in the minimal controller synthesis algorithms, which were developed for a class of nonlinear systems with uncertainties. The major proposition is that only the output feedback is enough to control some nonlinear systems without an observer while the existing algorithms require the complete state feedback. Next, the extended version and the parameter identification technique of the minimal controller synthesis algorithm are combined in a single method estimating some more parameters for some known forms of nonlinearities. This is applicable with or without the improvement of removing the need for using the complete state feedback. It …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Designing an automated system for classifying DNA microarray data is an extremely challenging problem because of its high dimension and low amount of sample data. In this paper, a hybrid statistical pattern recognition algorithm is proposed to reduce the dimensionality and select the predictive genes for the classification of cancer. Colon cancer gene expression profiles having 62 samples of 2000 genes were used for the experiment. A gene subset of 6 highly informative genes was selected by the algorithm, which provided a classification accuracy of 93.5%.
