Conference Object Citation Count: 0A Comparison of Neural Network Approaches for Network Intrusion Detection(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2020) Peker, Serhat; Peker, Serhat; Software EngineeringNowadays, network intrusion detection is an important area of research in computer network security, and the use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) have become increasingly popular in this field. Despite this, the research concerning comparison of artificial neural network architectures in the network intrusion detection is a relatively insufficient. To make up for this lack, this study aims to examine the neural network architectures in network intrusion detection to determine which architecture performs best, and to examine the effects of the architectural components, such as optimization functions, activation functions, learning momentum on the performance. For this purpose, 6480 neural networks were generated, their performances were evaluated by conducting a series of experiments on KDD99 dataset, and the results were reported. This study will be a useful reference to researchers and practitioners hoping to use ANNs in network intrusion detection.Conference Object Citation Count: 3A methodology for product segmentation using sale transactions(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Peker, Serhat; Kocyigit,A.; Erhan Eren,P.; Software EngineeringThis paper presents a novel methodology for product segmentation using customers' transactions on products. The proposed methodology introduces FMC model, and utilizes this model's features and clustering algorithms to group products into segments. The applicability of the proposed approach has been demonstrated on data collected by a supermarket chain. The results show that the proposed methodology provides an efficient tool that can be used to identify different product segments and to gain valuable insights about these distinct groups. The resulting product segments can help managers in the inventory management and developing marketing strategies. © 2018 Croatian Society MIPRO.Article Citation Count: 9A Combined Approach for Customer Profiling in Video on Demand Services Using Clustering and Association Rule Mining(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2020) Turhan, Çiğdem; Peker, Serhat; Peker, Serhat; Software EngineeringThe purpose of this paper is to propose a combined data mining approach for analyzing and profiling customers in video on demand (VoD) services. The proposed approach integrates clustering and association rule mining. For customer segmentation, the LRFMP model is employed alongside the k-means and Apriori algorithms to generate association rules between the identified customer groups and content genres. The applicability of the proposed approach is demonstrated on real-world data obtained from an Internet protocol television (IPTV) operator. In this way, four main customer groups are identified: "high consuming-valuable subscribers", "less consuming subscribers","less consuming-loyal subscribers" and "disloyal subscribers". In detail, for each group of customers, a different marketing strategy or action is proposed, mainly campaigns, special-day promotions, discounted materials, offering favorite content, etc. Further, genres preferred by these customer segments are extracted using the Apriori algorithm. The results obtained from this case study also show that the proposed approach provides an efficient tool to form different customer segments with specific content rental characteristics, and to generate useful association rules for these distinct groups. The proposed combined approach in this research would be beneficial for IPTV service providers to implement effective CRM and customer-based marketing strategies.Article Citation Count: 4The Effects of the Content Elements of Online Banner Ads on Visual Attention: Evidence From An-Eye Study(Mdpi, 2021) Peker, Serhat; Peker, Serhat; Menekse Dalveren, Gonca Gokce; Inal, Yavuz; İnal, Yavuz; Software Engineering; Information Systems EngineeringThe aim of this paper is to examine the influence of the content elements of online banner ads on customers' visual attention, and to evaluate the impacts of gender, discount rate and brand familiarity on this issue. An eye-tracking study with 34 participants (18 male and 16 female) was conducted, in which the participants were presented with eight types of online banner ads comprising three content elements-namely brand, discount rate and image-while their eye movements were recorded. The results showed that the image was the most attractive area among the three main content elements. Furthermore, the middle areas of the banners were noticed first, and areas located on the left side were mostly noticed earlier than those on the right side. The results also indicated that the discount areas of banners with higher discount rates were more attractive and eye-catching compared to those of banners with lower discount rates. In addition to these, the participants who were familiar with the brand mostly concentrated on the discount area, while those who were unfamiliar with the brand mostly paid attention to the image area. The findings from this study will assist marketers in creating more effective and efficient online banner ads that appeal to customers, ultimately fostering positive attitudes towards the advertisement.Conference Object Citation Count: 0An Empirical Comparison of Customer Behavior Modeling Approaches for Shopping List Prediction(Ieee, 2018) Peker, Serhat; Peker, Serhat; Kocyigit, Altan; Eren, P. Erhan; Software EngineeringShopping list prediction is a crucial task for companies as it can enable to provide a specific customer a personalized list of products and improve customer satisfaction and loyalty as well. To predict customer behaviors, many studies in the literature have employed customer behavior modeling approaches which are individual-level and segment-based. However, previous efforts to predict customers' shopping lists have rarely employed these state-of-the-art approaches. In this manner, this paper introduces the segment based approach into the shopping list prediction and then presents an empirical comparison of the individual-level and the segment-based approaches in this problem. For this purpose, well-known machine learning classifiers and customers' purchase history are employed, and the comparison is performed on a real-life dataset by conducting a series of experiments. The results suggest that there is no clear winner in this comparison and the performances of customer behavior modeling approaches depend on the machine learning algorithm employed. The study can help researchers and practitioners to understand different aspects of using customer behavior modeling approaches in the shopping list prediction.Master Thesis Ağ Anomalilerinin Tespitinde Kullanılan Yapay Sinir Ağlarının Karşılaştırılması(2019) Öney, Mehmet Uğur; Peker, Serhat; Peker, Serhat; Software EngineeringAğ saldırı tespit sistemleri günümüz bilişim sistemlerinde kritik bir yer teşkil ederken önemli bir araştırma alanı olarak yükselmeye ve yapay sinir ağlarının kullanımı bu alanda giderek daha popüler hale gelmeye başlamıştır. Buna rağmen, bu alanda yapay sinir ağı mimarileri ve bu mimarilerin bileşen parametreleri hakkında kapsamlı bir karşılaştırmalı çalışmasının eksikliği vardır. Bu çalışmada, ağ saldırı tespit sistemleri alanında kullanılan yapay sinir ağları mimarileri ve bu mimarilerin bileşenleri olan optimizasyon fonksiyonları, aktivasyon fonksiyonları, öğrenme kat sayısı ve momentum değişiminin doğruluk ve hatalı uyarı üretme oranlarına göre kıyaslayarak ileride yapılacak olan mühendislik ve akademik çalışmalar için bir temel oluşturması amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda, 6480 adet yapay sinir ağı oluşturularak kıyaslama veri kümesi olarak kabul edilen KDD99 ve yakın gerçek zamanlı simülasyon ortamı yardımıyla her bir yapay sinir ağı değerlendirilmiştir. Bu tezin, yapay sinir ağları kullanılarak geliştirilecek ağ saldırı tespit sistemleri araştırmalarına rehberlik edecek bir yol haritası sağlayacaktır.Article Citation Count: 12A Hybrid Approach for Predicting Customers' Individual Purchase Behavior(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2017) Peker, Serhat; Peker, Serhat; Kocyigit, Altan; Eren, P. Erhan; Software EngineeringPurpose - Predicting customers' purchase behaviors is a challenging task. The literature has introduced the individual-level and the segment-based predictive modeling approaches for this purpose. Each method has its own advantages and drawbacks, and performs in certain cases. The purpose of this paper is to propose a hybrid approach which predicts customers' individual purchase behaviors and reduces the limitations of these two methods by combining the advantages of them. Design/methodology/approach - The proposed hybrid approach is established based on individual-level and segment-based approaches and utilizes the historical transactional data and predictive algorithms to generate predictions. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is experimentally evaluated in the domain of supermarket shopping by using real-world data and using five popular machine learning classification algorithms including logistic regression, decision trees, support vector machines, neural networks and random forests. Findings - A comparison of results shows that the proposed hybrid approach substantially outperforms the individual-level and the segment-based approaches in terms of prediction coverage while maintaining roughly comparable prediction accuracy to the individual-level method. Moreover, the experimental results demonstrate that logistic regression performs better than the other classifiers in predicting customer purchase behavior. Practical implications - The study concludes that the proposed approach would be beneficial for enterprises in terms of designing customized services and one-to-one marketing strategies. Originality/value - This study is the first attempt to adopt a hybrid approach combining individual-level and segment-based approaches to predict customers' individual purchase behaviors.Conference Object Citation Count: 2Prioritizing Use Cases for Development of Mobile Apps Using Ahp: a Case Study in To-Do List Apps(Springer, 2019) Yildirim,O.; Peker, Serhat; Peker,S.; Software EngineeringWith the rapid development of communication technologies, the uses of mobile apps have increased in a significant manner over the past few years.

Despite this, there is a lack of systematic literature review on that issue. In this manner, the aim of this study to examine the studies concerning the application artificial neural network approaches in network intrusion detection to determine the general trends. For this purpose, the articles published within the last decade from 2008 to 2018 were systematically reviewed and 43 articles were retrieved from commonly used databases by using a search strategy. Then, these selected papers were classified by the publication type, the year of publication, the type of the neural network architectures they employed, and the dataset they used. The results indicate that there is a rising trend in the usage of ANN approaches in the network intrusion detection with the gaining popularity of deep neural networks in recent years. Moreover, the KDD'99 dataset is the most commonly used dataset in the studies of network intrusion detection using ANNs. We hope that this paper provides a roadmap to guide future research on network intrusion detection using ANNs. © 2018 IEEE.
