Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1An Undergraduate Curriculum for Deep Learning(Ieee, 2018) Tirkes, Guzin; Ekin, Cansu Cigdem; Sengul, Gokhan; Bostan, Atila; Karakaya, MuratDeep Learning (DL) is an interesting and rapidly developing field of research which has been currently utilized as a part of industry and in many disciplines to address a wide range of problems, from image classification, computer vision, video games, bioinformatics, and handwriting recognition to machine translation. The starting point of this study is the recognition of a big gap between the sector need of specialists in DL technology and the lack of sufficient education provided by the universities. Higher education institutions are the best environment to provide this expertise to the students. However, currently most universities do not provide specifically designed DL courses to their students. Thus, the main objective of this study is to design a novel curriculum including two courses to facilitate teaching and learning of DL topic. The proposed curriculum will enable students to solve real-world problems by applying DL approaches and gain necessary background to adapt their knowledge to more advanced, industry-specific fields.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9Benchmarking Classification Models for Cell Viability on Novel Cancer Image Datasets(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2019) Ozkan, Akin; Isgor, Sultan Belgin; Sengul, Gokhan; Isgor, Yasemin GulgunBackground: Dye-exclusion based cell viability analysis has been broadly used in cell biology including anticancer drug discovery studies. Viability analysis refers to the whole decision making process for the distinction of dead cells from live ones. Basically, cell culture samples are dyed with a special stain called trypan blue, so that the dead cells are selectively colored to darkish. This distinction provides critical information that may be used to expose influences of the studied drug on considering cell culture including cancer. Examiner's experience and tiredness substantially affect the consistency throughout the manual observation of cell viability. The unsteady results of cell viability may end up with biased experimental results accordingly. Therefore, a machine learning based automated decision-making procedure is inevitably needed to improve consistency of the cell viability analysis. Objective: In this study, we investigate various combinations of classifiers and feature extractors (i.e. classification models) to maximize the performance of computer vision-based viability analysis. Method: The classification models are tested on novel hemocytometer image datasets which contain two types of cancer cell images, namely, caucasian promyelocytic leukemia (HL60), and chronic myelogenous leukemia (K562). Results: From the experimental results, k-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Random Forest (RF) by combining Local Phase Quantization (LPQ) achieve the lowest misclassification rates that are 0.031 and 0.082, respectively. Conclusion: The experimental results show that KNN and RF with LPQ can be powerful alternatives to the conventional manual cell viability analysis. Also, the collected datasets are released from the "biochem.atilim.edu.tr/datasets/ " web address publically to academic studies.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 13White Blood Cells Classifications by SURF Image Matching, PCA and Dendrogram(Allied Acad, 2015) Nazlibilek, Sedat; Karacor, Deniz; Erturk, Korhan Levent; Sengul, Gokhan; Ercan, Tuncay; Aliew, Fuad; Department of Mechatronics Engineering; Information Systems Engineering; Computer EngineeringDetermination and classification of white blood cells are very important for diagnosing many diseases. The number of white blood cells and morphological changes or blasts of them provide valuable information for the positive results of the diseases such as Acute Lymphocytic Leucomia (ALL). Recognition and classification of white cells as basophils, lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes and eosinophils also give additional information for the diagnosis of many diseases. We are developing an automatic process for counting, size determination and classification of white blood cells. In this paper, we give the results of the classification process for which we experienced a study with hundreds of images of white blood cells. This process will help to diagnose especially ALL disease in a fast and automatic way. Three methods are used for classification of five types of white blood cells. The first one is a new algorithm utilizing image matching for classification that is called the Speed-Up Robust Feature detector (SURF). The second one is the PCA that gives the advantage of dimension reduction. The third is the classification tree called dendrogram following the PCA. Satisfactory results are obtained by two techniques.Article Citation - WoS: 8Estimation of Polypropylene Concentration of Modified Bitumen Images by Using K-Nn and Svm Classifiers(Asce-amer Soc Civil Engineers, 2015) Tapkin, Serkan; Sengoz, Burak; Sengul, Gokhan; Topal, Ali; Ozcelik, ErolThe goal of this study is to design an expert system that automatically classifies the microscopic images of polypropylene fiber (PPF) modified bitumen including seven different contents of fibers. Optical microscopy was used to capture the images from thin films of polypropylene fiber modified bitumen samples at a magnification scale of 100 x. A total of 313 images were pre-processed, and features were extracted and selected by the exhaustive search method. The k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) and multiclass support vector machine (SVM) classifiers were applied to quantify the representation capacity. The k-NN and multiclass SVM classifiers reached an accuracy rate of 87% and 86%, respectively. The results suggest that the proposed expert system can successfully estimate the concentration of PPF in bitumen images with good generalization characteristics.

We differentiate fall detection from four common daily activities: sitting, squatting, running, and walking. Moreover, we separate falling into falling from a chair and falling from a standing position. We develop a mobile application that collects the acceleration and gyroscope sensor data and transfers them to the cloud. In the cloud, we implement a deep learning algorithm to classify the activity according to the given classes. To increase the number of data samples available for training, we use the Bica cubic Hermite interpolation, which allows us to improve the accuracy of the neural network. The 38 statistical data features were calculated using the rolling update approach and used as input to the classifier. For activity classification, we have adopted the bi-directional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) neural network. The results demonstrate that our system can detect falling with an accuracy of 99.59% (using leave-one-activityout cross-validation) and 97.35% (using leave-one-subject-out cross-validation) considering all activities. When considering only binary classification (falling vs. all other activities), perfect accuracy is achieved.Conference Object An Iot Application for Locating Victims Aftermath of an Earthquake(Ieee, 2017) Karakaya, Murat; Sengul, Gokhan; Gokcay, ErhanThis paper presents an Internet of Things (IoT) framework which is specially designed for assisting the research and rescue operations targeted to collapsed buildings aftermath of an earthquake. In general, an IoT network is used to collect and process data from different sources called things. According to the collected data, an IoT system can actuate different mechanisms to react the environment. In the problem at hand, we exploit the IoT capabilities to collect the data about the victims before the building collapses and when it falls down the collected data is processed to generate useful reports which will direct the search and rescue efforts. The proposed framework is tested by a pilot implementation with some simplifications. The initial results and experiences are promising. During the pilot implementation, we observed some issues which are addressed in the proposed IoT framework properly.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5A Study on the Performance of Magnetic Material Identification System by Sift-Brisk and Neural Network Methods(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2015) Ege, Yavuz; Nazlibilek, Sedat; Kakilli, Adnan; Citak, Hakan; Kalender, Osman; Karacor, Deniz; Sengul, GokhanIndustry requires low-cost, low-power consumption, and autonomous remote sensing systems for detecting and identifying magnetic materials. Magnetic anomaly detection is one of the methods that meet these requirements. This paper aims to detect and identify magnetic materials by the use of magnetic anomalies of the Earth's magnetic field created by some buried materials. A new measurement system that can determine the images of the upper surfaces of buried magnetic materials is developed. The system consists of a platform whose position is automatically controlled in x-axis and y-axis and a KMZ51 anisotropic magneto-resistive sensor assembly with 24 sensors mounted on the platform. A new identification system based on scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT)-binary robust invariant scalable keypoints (BRISKs) as keypoint and descriptor, respectively, is developed for identification by matching the similar images of magnetic anomalies. The results are compared by the conventional principal component analysis and neural net algorithms. On the six selected samples and the combinations of these samples, 100% correct classification rates were obtained.Conference Object Deep Learning and Current Trends in Machine Learning(Ieee, 2018) Bostan, Atila; Sengul, Gokhan; Tirkes, Guzin; Ekin, Cansu; Karakaya, MuratAcademic interest and commercial attention can be used to identify how much potential a novel technology may have.

Automatic gender detection is used in many areas such as customer behaviour analysis, robust security system construction, resource management, human-computer interaction, video games, mobile applications, neuro-marketing etc., in which manual gender detection may be not feasible. In this study, we have developed a fully automatic system that uses the 3D anthropometric measurements of human subjects for gender detection. A Kinect 3D camera was used to recognize the human posture, and body metrics are used as features for classification. To classify the gender, KNN, SVM classifiers and Neural Network were used with the parameters. A unique dataset gathered from 29 female and 31 male (a total of 60 people) participants was used in the experiment and the Leave One Out method was used as the cross-validation approach. The maximum accuracy achieved is 96.77% for SVM with an MLP kernel function.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 13Gesture-Based Interaction for Learning: Time To Make the Dream a Reality(Wiley, 2012) Ozcelik, Erol; Sengul, Gokhan[No Abstract Available]
