Robust Image Hashing Based On Structural And Perceptual Features Forauthentication Of Color Images, Muhammad Farhan Khan, Syed Muhammad Monir, Imran Naseem

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Image hashing is one of the most celebrated techniques regarding the discipline of image forensics, imageretrieval, image indexing, content verification, and zero watermarking. For such sensitive and complex problems,generation of a unique and robust image hash is an utmost prerequisite for an image identifier driven from the perceptualcontents of an image. As a design perspective, it is essential for an image hash to have robustness and optimizeddiscriminative capability. We propose a robust image hashing technique by acquiring perceptual features based on anovel distance magnitude profile utilizing color pixel incongruity among the contiguous pixels, as well as producing astructural image for …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Human action recognition is a fundamental problem which is applied in various domains, and it is widelystudied in the literature. Majority of the studies model action recognition as a closed-set problem. However, in real-life applications it usually arises as an open-set problem where a set of actions are not available during training butare introduced to the system during testing. In this study, we propose an open-set action recognition system, humanaction recognition and novel action detection system (HARNAD), which consists of two stages and uses only 3D skeletoninformation.

On Performance Analysis Of Multioperator Ran Sharing For Mobile Networkoperators, Yekta Türk, Engi̇n Zeydan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Enhancing the coverage and eliminating the poor performance is key to balance end-user experience andfuture network investments for mobile network operators (MNOs). Although vast amounts of infrastructure investmentsare provided by MNOs, there are still coverage and capacity planning problems at remote locations. This is because,in most cases, the population density and return-of-investments are low in those areas. In this paper, radio accessnetwork (RAN) sharing paradigm is utilized on experimental sites in Turkey to accommodate user equipment of multiplenetwork operators under the same cell sites. We first investigate characteristics, benefits, and limitations of two differentRAN sharing deployment scenarios. Then, a city-wide …

Dynamic Issue Queue Capping For Simultaneous Multithreaded Processors, Merve Güney, Büşra Kuru, Sercan Sari, İsa Ahmet Güney, Gürhan Küçük

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A simultaneous multithreaded (SMT) processor mixes multiple instruction streams in its superscalar out-of-order execution core for higher throughput. To achieve this, a superscalar processor is modified in such a way that someof its resources are duplicated and the rest is shared among multiple threads. The issue queue (IQ), which holds allwaiting instructions until they become ready and scheduled for execution, is among these shared resources. A baselineunmanaged IQ can give an unexpectedly low performance since a hungry thread can tie up most of the IQ entries.This type of scenario is also worse in terms of the fairness metric since some …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Human cornea is the front see-through shield of the eye. It refracts light onto the retina to induce vision.Therefore, any defect in the cornea may lead to vision disturbance. This deficiency is estimated by sets of topographicalimages measured, and assessed by an ophthalmologist. Consequently, an important priority is the early and accuratediagnosis of diseases that may affect corneal integrity through the use of machine learning algorithms. Images producedby a Pentacam device can be subjected to rotation or some distortion during acquisition; therefore, accurate diagnosisrequires the use of local features in the image. Accordingly, a new algorithm called subbands wavelet for …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Outdoor captured scenes are degraded by atmospheric particles and water droplets. Due to scattering andabsorption effects in the atmosphere, degraded images lose contrast and color fidelity. Performances of the computervision algorithms are bound to suffer from low-contrast scene radiance. In many single-image dehazing models, thelarger the deviation in estimation of the key parameters such as transmission map and atmospheric light, the higherthe halo artifacts and loss of fine details in the dehazed image. The available models assume that the scattering lightis independent of wavelength, as the size of the atmospheric particles is larger compared to the wavelength of light.The model …

Pfecc: A Precise Feedback-Based Explicit Congestion Control Algorithm In Nameddata Networking, Hui Li

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Named data networking (NDN), as a future Internet architecture that is a promising alternative to TCP/IPnetworks, has the new features of connectionless, in-network cache, and hop-by-hop forwarding, which makes thecongestion control algorithms of traditional TCP/IP networks unable to be directly applied to NDN. In addition, sincethe optimal size of the sending window cannot be determined, the existing window-based congestion control algorithmsgenerally use the AIMD-like window adjustment algorithm, which cannot achieve the optimal throughput. In thispaper, we propose a precise feedback-based, multipath-aware congestion control algorithm PFECC, which is inspiredby Accel-Brake Control algorithm. PFECC considers the influence of Interest flows, uses a …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Sign languages are nonverbal, visual languages that hearing- or speech-impaired people use for communication.Aside from hands, other communication channels such as body posture and facial expressions are also valuable insign languages. As a result of the fact that the gestures in sign languages vary across countries, the significance ofcommunication channels in each sign language also differs. In this study, representing the communication channels usedin Turkish sign language, a total of 8 different data streams-4 RGB, 3 pose, 1 optical flow-were analyzed.

Metaheuristic based artificial intelligence algorithms are commonly used in the solution of optimization problems. Another area -besides engineering systems- where chaos theory is widely employed is optimization problems. Being applied easily and not trapping in local optima, chaos-based search algorithms have attracted great attention. For example, it has been reported that when random number sequences generated from different chaotic systems are replaced with parameter values in bioinspired and swarm intelligence algorithms, an increase in the performance of metaheuristic algorithms is observed.
