Zircon Grain Shape Parameters From Ignimbrites Of The Central Anatolian Volcanic Province (Cavp) With Implications For Petrogenetic Processes, Lütfi̇ye Akin Sep 2023

Zircon Grain Shape Parameters From Ignimbrites Of The Central Anatolian Volcanic Province (Cavp) With Implications For Petrogenetic Processes, Lütfi̇ye Akin

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

Zircon morphology parameters reflect the physicochemical conditions during crystallization and can be modified by different processes. Zircon populations from Miocene-Pliocene ignimbrites of the Central Anatolian Volcanic Province (CAVP) were studied to reveal relations between the external morphology of zircons and petrogenetic processes. Descriptive grain shape parameters (e.g., minor and major axes, area, perimeter, aspect ratio, roundness, and circularity) were automatically measured from transmitted light images of zircons by a graphical application called AnalyZr. Principal component and cluster analysis were used to determine potential shape descriptors (perimeter, major and minor axis length, and maximum and minimum Feret) for characterizing grains from …

Rank Of Kozlu Formation Coals In The Zonguldak Basin: Implications For Coalbed Gas, Mehmet Namik Yalçin, Cemi̇l Seyi̇s, Sedat İnan

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

Carboniferous bituminous coals of the Zonguldak Basin have been mined for over a century. Due to underground mining activity, there have been several fatal incidents related to gas explosions. The gas content of the coals varies greatly in the basin mainly based on coal maturity (rank), increasing with increasing coal depth. In this study, we report a map for coal depth and coal rank in the Kozlu-Üzülmez-Karadon districts of Zonguldak Basin with hope the that it would aid coal gas exploration/exploitation and also coal gas degassing efforts for safer underground mining production in the Zonguldak Basin.

Cognitive Load Detection Using Ci-Ssa For Eeg Signal Decomposition And Nature-Inspired Feature Selection, Jammisetty Yedukondalu, Lakhan Dev Sharma

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Cognitive load detection is eminent during the mental assignment of neural activity because it indicates how the brain reacts to stimuli. The level of cognitive load experienced during mental arithmetic tasks can be determined using an electroencephalogram (EEG). The EEG data were collected from publicly available datasets, namely, mental arithmetic task (MAT) and simultaneous task workload (STEW). The first phase comprises decomposing the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal into intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using circulant singular spectrum analysis (Ci-SSA). In the second phase, entropy-based features were evaluated using IMFs. After that, the extracted features were fed to nature-inspired feature selection algorithms: genetic …

Direct Pore-Based Identification For Fingerprint Matching Process, Vedat Delican, Behçet Uğur Töreyi̇n, Ege Çeti̇n, Ayli̇n Yalçin Saribey

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Fingerprints are one of the most important scientific proof instruments in solving forensic cases. Identification in fingerprints consists of three levels based on the flow direction of the papillary lines at the first level, the minutiae points at the second level, and the pores at the third level. The inadequacy of existing imaging systems in detecting fingerprints and the lack of pore details at the desired level limit the widespread use of third-level identification. The fact that fingerprints with images based on pores in the unsolved database are not subjected to any evaluation criteria and remain in the database reveals …

Dynamic Deep Neural Network Inference Via Adaptive Channel Skipping, Meixia Zou, Xiuwen Li, Jinzheng Fang, Hong Wen, Weiwei Fang

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Deep neural networks have recently made remarkable achievements in computer vision applications. However, the high computational requirements needed to achieve accurate inference results can be a significant barrier to deploying DNNs on resource-constrained computing devices, such as those found in the Internet-of-things. In this work, we propose a fresh approach called adaptive channel skipping (ACS) that prioritizes the identification of the most suitable channels for skipping and implements an efficient skipping mechanism during inference. We begin with the development of a new gating network model, ACS-GN, which employs fine-grained channel-wise skipping to enable input-dependent inference and achieve a desirable balance …


Joint Intent Detection And Slot Filling For Turkish Natural Language Understanding, Osman Büyük Sep 2023

Joint Intent Detection And Slot Filling For Turkish Natural Language Understanding, Osman Büyük

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Intent detection and slot filling are two crucial subtasks of a text-based goal-oriented dialogue system. In a goal-oriented dialogue system, users interact with the system to complete a goal (or to fulfill their intent) and provide the necessary information (slot values) to achieve that goal. Therefore, a user?s text input includes information about the user?s intent and contains required slot values. Recently, joint models that simultaneously detect the intent and extract the slots are proposed to benefit from the interaction between the two tasks. The proposed methods are usually tested using benchmark data sets in English such as ATIS and …


Adjunction Greatest Element To Ordered Hypersemigroups, Niovi Kehayopulu Sep 2023

Adjunction Greatest Element To Ordered Hypersemigroups, Niovi Kehayopulu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

As a continuation of the paper "Adjunction Identity to Hypersemigroup" in Turk J Math 2022; 46 (7): 2834--2853, it has been proved here that the adjunction of a greatest element to an ordered hypersemigroup is actually an embedding problem. The concept of pseudoideal has been introduced and has been proved that for each ordered hypersemigroup $S$ an ordered hypersemigroup $V$ having a greatest element ($poe$-hypersemigroup) can be constructed in such a way that there exists a pseudoideal $T$ of $S$ such that $S$ is isomorphic to $T$. If $S$ does not have a greatest element, then this can be regarded …

The purpose of this paper is to establish the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions of both the $q$-Durrmeyer operators $D_{n,q}$ and the limit $q$-Durrmeyer operators $D_{\infty,q}$ introduced by V. Gupta in the case 0<$q$<1. All moments for $D_{n,q}$ and $D_{\infty,q}$ are provided. The coefficients for the eigenfunctions of the operators are explicitly derived and the eigenfunctions of these operators are illustrated by graphical examples.


Higher Topological Complexity Of A Map, Cesar Augusto Ipanaque Zapata, Jesús González Sep 2023

Higher Topological Complexity Of A Map, Cesar Augusto Ipanaque Zapata, Jesús González

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The higher topological complexity of a space $X$, $\text{TC}_r(X)$, $r=2,3,\ldots$, and the topological complexity of a map $f$, $\text{TC}(f)$, have been introduced by Rudyak and Pavesiç, respectively, as natural extensions of Farber's topological complexity of a space. In this paper we introduce a notion of higher topological complexity of a map $f$, $\text{TC}_{r,s}(f)$, for $1\leq s\leq r\geq2$, which simultaneously extends Rudyak's and Pavesiç notions. Our unified concept is relevant in the $r$-multitasking motion planning problem associated to a robot devise when the forward kinematics map plays a role in $s$ prescribed stages of the motion task. We study the homotopy …


Operators Affiliated To Banach Lattice Properties And Their Enveloping Norms, Eduard Emelyanov, Svetlana Gorokhova Sep 2023

Operators Affiliated To Banach Lattice Properties And Their Enveloping Norms, Eduard Emelyanov, Svetlana Gorokhova

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Several recent papers were devoted to various modifications of limited, Grothendieck, and Dunford-Pettis operators, etc., through involving the Banach lattice structure. In the present paper, it is shown that many of these operators appear as operators affiliated to well-known properties of Banach lattices, like the disjoint (dual) Schur property, the disjoint Grothendieck property, the property (d), the sequential w$^\ast$-continuity of the lattice operations, etc. We also introduce new classes of operators such as the s-GPP-operators, s-BDP-operators, and bi-sP-operators. It is proved that the spaces consisting of regular versions of the above-mentioned operators are all the Banach spaces. The domination problem …

Extended Calculus On ${\Cal O}({\Mathbb C}_{H}^{1\Vert1})$, Sali̇h Çeli̇k

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We give an extended calculus over the function algebra on $h$-deformed superplane. For this, we extend the $(h_1,h_2)$-deformed differential calculus on the $h$-deformed superplane by adding inner derivations. We reformulate the results with an $R$-matrix and present the tensor product realization of the wedge product. We also discuss Cartan calculus via a contraction.


Fractional Semilinear Neumann Problem With Critical Nonlinearity, Zhenfeng Jin, Hongrui Sun Sep 2023

Fractional Semilinear Neumann Problem With Critical Nonlinearity, Zhenfeng Jin, Hongrui Sun

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we consider the following critical fractional semilinear Neumann problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} (-\Delta)^{1/2}u+\lambda u=u^{\frac{n+1}{n-1}},~u>0\quad&\, \mathrm{in}\ \Omega,\\ \partial_\nu{u}=0 &\mathrm{on}\ \partial\Omega, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n~(n\geq5)$ is a smooth bounded domain, $\lambda>0$ and $\nu$ is the outward unit normal to $\partial\Omega$. We prove that there exists a constant $\lambda_0>0$ such that the above problem admits a minimal energy solution for $\lambda<\lambda_0$. Moreover, if $\Omega$ is convex, we show that this solution is constant for sufficiently small $\lambda$.

In this work, we consider a velocity-vorticity formulation for the $g$-Navier-Stokes equations. The system is constructed by combining the velocity-pressure system which is included by using the rotational formulation of the nonlinearity and the vorticity equation for the $g$ -Navier-Stokes equations. We prove the existence and uniqueness of weak and strong solutions of this system with the periodic boundary conditions.


Liouville-Type Theorem For One-Dimensional Porous Medium Systems With Sources, Anh Tuan Duong Sep 2023

Liouville-Type Theorem For One-Dimensional Porous Medium Systems With Sources, Anh Tuan Duong

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we are concerned with the one-dimensional porous medium system with sources \begin{align*} \begin{cases}u_t-( u^m)_{xx} =a_{11}u^{p}+a_{12} u^rv^{r+m}, (x,t)\in J\times I\subset\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}\\ v_t-(v^m)_{xx} =a_{21} u^{r+m}v^{r}+a_{22}v^{p},\;(x,t)\in J\times I\subset \mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}, \end{cases} \end{align*} where $p=2r+m$, $m>1$, $r>0$. Under the conditions $a_{12}\geq 0, a_{21}\geq 0$, $a_{11}>0$, and $a_{22}>0$, we prove that the system does not possess any nontrivial nonnegative weak solution.


On The Monoid Of Partial Isometries Of A Cycle Graph, Vitor H. Fernandes, Tania Paulista Sep 2023

On The Monoid Of Partial Isometries Of A Cycle Graph, Vitor H. Fernandes, Tania Paulista

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper we consider the monoid $DPC_n$ of all partial isometries of an $n$-cycle graph $C_n$. We show that $DPC_n$ is the submonoid of the monoid of all oriented partial permutations on an $n$-chain whose elements are precisely all restrictions of a dihedral group of order $2n$. Our main aim is to exhibit a presentation of $DPC_n$. We also describe Green's relations of $DPC_n$ and calculate its cardinality and rank.

Kondo-Tanaka proved that if a rotationally symmetric plane $M_m$ is von Mangoldt or Cartan-Hadamard outside a compact set and has finite total curvature, then it has a sector with no pair of cut points. We show that the condition of finite total curvature can be removed. %The abstract should provide clear information about the research and the results obtained, and should not exceed 200 words. The abstract should not contain citations.


A Short Note On A New Approach To Rayleigh-Bénard-Chandrasekhar Convection In Weakly Electrically Conducting Viscoelastic Liquids, Hati̇ce Muti̇ Sep 2023

A Short Note On A New Approach To Rayleigh-Bénard-Chandrasekhar Convection In Weakly Electrically Conducting Viscoelastic Liquids, Hati̇ce Muti̇

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The onset of magnetoconvection (known as Rayleigh-Bénard-Chandrasekhar convection) in two relaxation time viscoelastic liquids is studied here without seeking explicit recourse to a normal stress formulation as is usually done in these studies. Magnetoconvection refers to the flow of fluid in the presence of both thermal gradients (Rayleigh-Bénard convection) and a magnetic field. When these two effects are combined, they can lead to interesting and complex patterns of fluid motion. Understanding magnetoconvection in viscoelastic liquids is crucial for various industrial and scientific applications. The hyperbolic-type of linear momentum equation is decomposed into two first-order equations in time by cleverly separating …

Three examples are analyzed to illustrate the effectiveness of the abstract results.


Identities Involving Special Functions From Hypergeometric Solution Of Algebraic Equations, Juan Luis Gonzalez-Santander Sep 2023

Identities Involving Special Functions From Hypergeometric Solution Of Algebraic Equations, Juan Luis Gonzalez-Santander

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

From the algebraic solution of $x^{m}-x+t=0$ for $m=2,3,4$ and the corresponding solution in terms of hypergeometric functions, we obtain a set of reduction formulas for hypergeometric functions. By differentiation and integration of these results, and applying other known reduction formulas of hypergeometric functions, we derive new reduction formulas of special functions as well as the calculation of some definite integrals in terms of elementary functions.
