Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Recently, the use of sensor-based systems in many areas has led to an exponential increase in the raw sensor data. However, the lack of neither syntactic nor semantic integrity between these sensor data limited their sharing, reusability, and interpretation. These inabilities can cause some problems. For example, different wireless sensor networks may not work together due to the subtle variations in their sensing methods, operating systems, syntax, and data structure. In recent years, to cope with these inabilities, the semantic sensor web approach, which enables us to enrich the meaning of sensor data, has been seen as the critical technology …

A Subsynchronous Resonance Prevention For Dfig-Based Wind Farms, Davood Fateh, Ali Akbar Moti Birjandi, Josep M. Guerrero

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, subsynchronous resonance (SSR) instability was accurately analyzed in doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind farms by the linearization of equations and modal analysis. In addition, the possibility of high compensation for the transmission lines connected to DFIG-based wind farms was provided using a SSR prevention controller (SSRPC). For this purpose, an SSRPC was connected to the output voltage of the grid side converter (GSC) of the DFIG. The GSC output voltage was selected as the connection point of the SSRPC because it directly affects the induction generator effect (IGE) and can be an inhibitor factor in its …

Adaptive Modified Artificial Bee Colony Algorithms (Amabc) For Optimization Ofcomplex Systems, Rabi̇a Korkmaz Tan, Şebnem Bora

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Complex systems are large scale and involve numerous uncertainties, which means that such systems tend to be expensive to operate. Further, it is difficult to analyze systems of this kind in a real environment, and for this reason agent-based modeling and simulation techniques are used instead. Based on estimation methods, modeling and simulation techniques establish an output set against the existing input set. However, as the data set in a given complex systems becomes very large, it becomes impossible to use estimation methods to create the output set desired. Therefore, a new mechanism is needed to optimize data sets in …

Then, connecting these custom-designed sensors with a central node, a fusion center (FC), we form a wireless sensor network (WSN) in which sensors measure light intensities and send their measurements to the FC for final inference. Since the default addressing structure of nRF24L01+ can simultaneously connect up to 6 devices, in order to have more connections, we define a new addressing scheme for the transmissions between sensors and the FC. Finally, as …

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 …
