Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7A Simplified Method Based on Rssi Fingerprinting for Iot Device Localization in Smart Cities(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2024) Dogan, Deren; Dalveren, Yaser; Kara, Ali; Derawi, MohammadThe Internet of Things (IoT) has significantly improved location-based services in smart cities, such as automated public transportation and traffic management. Estimating the location of connected devices is a critical problem. Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies are used for localization due to their low power consumption and long communication range. Recent advances in Machine Learning have made Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) fingerprinting with LPWAN technologies effective. However, this requires a connection between devices and gateways or base stations, which can increase network deployment, maintenance, and installation costs. This study proposes a cost-effective RSSI fingerprinting solution using IQRF technology for IoT device localization. The region of interest is divided into grids to provide training locations, and measurements are conducted to create a training dataset containing RSSI fingerprints. Pattern matching is performed to localize the device by comparing the fingerprint of the end device with the fingerprints in the created database. To evaluate the efficiency of the proposed solution, measurements were conducted in a short-range local area ( $80\times 30$ m) at 868 MHz. In the measurements, four IQRF nodes were utilized to receive the RSSIs from a transmitting IQRF node. The performances of well-known ML classifiers on the created dataset are then comparatively assessed in terms of test accuracy, prediction speed, and training time. According to the results, the Bagged Trees classifier demonstrated the highest accuracy with 96.87%. However, with an accuracy of 95.69%, the Weighted k-NN could also be a reasonable option for real-world implementations due to its faster prediction speed (37615 obs/s) and lower training time (28.1 s). To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first attempt to explore the feasibility of the IQRF networks to develop a RSSI fingerprinting-based IoT device localization in the literature. The promising results suggest that the proposed method could be used as a low-cost alternative for IoT device localization in short-range location-based smart city applications.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 12A Systematic Approach To Optimizing Energy-Efficient Automated Systems With Learning Models for Thermal Comfort Control in Indoor Spaces(Mdpi, 2023) Erisen, SerdarEnergy-efficient automated systems for thermal comfort control in buildings is an emerging research area that has the potential to be considered through a combination of smart solutions. This research aims to explore and optimize energy-efficient automated systems with regard to thermal comfort parameters, energy use, workloads, and their operation for thermal comfort control in indoor spaces. In this research, a systematic approach is deployed, and building information modeling (BIM) software and energy optimization algorithms are applied at first to thermal comfort parameters, such as natural ventilation, to derive the contextual information and compute the building performance of an indoor environment with Internet of Things (IoT) technologies installed. The open-source dataset from the experiment environment is also applied in training and testing unique black box models, which are examined through the users' voting data acquired via the personal comfort systems (PCS), thus revealing the significance of Fanger's approach and the relationship between people and their surroundings in developing the learning models. The contextual information obtained via BIM simulations, the IoT-based data, and the building performance evaluations indicated the critical levels of energy use and the capacities of the thermal comfort control systems. Machine learning models were found to be significant in optimizing the operation of the automated systems, and deep learning models were momentous in understanding and predicting user activities and thermal comfort levels for well-being; this can optimize energy use in smart buildings.Article Citation - Scopus: 88Is Chatgpt Accurate and Reliable in Answering Questions Regarding Head and Neck Cancer?(Frontiers Media SA, 2023) Kuşcu,O.; Pamuk,A.E.; Sütay Süslü,N.; Hosal,S.Background and objective: Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) is an artificial intelligence (AI)-based language processing model using deep learning to create human-like text dialogue. It has been a popular source of information covering vast number of topics including medicine. Patient education in head and neck cancer (HNC) is crucial to enhance the understanding of patients about their medical condition, diagnosis, and treatment options. Therefore, this study aims to examine the accuracy and reliability of ChatGPT in answering questions regarding HNC. Methods: 154 head and neck cancer-related questions were compiled from sources including professional societies, institutions, patient support groups, and social media. These questions were categorized into topics like basic knowledge, diagnosis, treatment, recovery, operative risks, complications, follow-up, and cancer prevention. ChatGPT was queried with each question, and two experienced head and neck surgeons assessed each response independently for accuracy and reproducibility. Responses were rated on a scale: (1) comprehensive/correct, (2) incomplete/partially correct, (3) a mix of accurate and inaccurate/misleading, and (4) completely inaccurate/irrelevant. Discrepancies in grading were resolved by a third reviewer. Reproducibility was evaluated by repeating questions and analyzing grading consistency. Results: ChatGPT yielded “comprehensive/correct” responses to 133/154 (86.4%) of the questions whereas, rates of “incomplete/partially correct” and “mixed with accurate and inaccurate data/misleading” responses were 11% and 2.6%, respectively. There were no “completely inaccurate/irrelevant” responses. According to category, the model provided “comprehensive/correct” answers to 80.6% of questions regarding “basic knowledge”, 92.6% related to “diagnosis”, 88.9% related to “treatment”, 80% related to “recovery – operative risks – complications – follow-up”, 100% related to “cancer prevention” and 92.9% related to “other”. There was not any significant difference between the categories regarding the grades of ChatGPT responses (p=0.88). The rate of reproducibility was 94.1% (145 of 154 questions). Conclusion: ChatGPT generated substantially accurate and reproducible information to diverse medical queries related to HNC. Despite its limitations, it can be a useful source of information for both patients and medical professionals. With further developments in the model, ChatGPT can also play a crucial role in clinical decision support to provide the clinicians with up-to-date information.

In cases where the patient's previous records cannot be found, where the records are not clear, or the surgery was conducted abroad, the specialist should identify the implant manufacturer and model during preoperative X-ray controls. In this study, an auxiliary expert system is proposed for classifying manufacturers of shoulder implants on the basis of X-ray images that is automated, objective, and based on hybrid machine learning models. In the proposed system, ten different hybrid models consisting of a combination of deep learning and machine learning algorithms were created and statistically tested. According to the experimental results, an accuracy of 95.07% was achieved using the DenseNet201 + Logistic Regression model, one of the proposed hybrid machine learning models (p < 0.05). The proposed hybrid machine learning algorithms achieve the goal of low cost and high performance compared to other studies in the literature. The results lead the authors to believe that the proposed system could be used in hospitals as an automatic and objective system for assisting orthopedists in the rapid and effective determination of shoulder implant types before performing revision surgery.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 20Business Intelligence Strategies, Best Practices, and Latest Trends: Analysis of Scientometric Data From 2003 To 2023 Using Machine Learning(Mdpi, 2023) Gurcan, Fatih; Ayaz, Ahmet; Dalveren, Gonca Gokce Menekse; Derawi, MohammadThe widespread use of business intelligence products, services, and applications piques the interest of researchers in this field.

This virus is diagnosed using a traditional technique known as the Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) test. However, RT-PCR customarily outputs a lot of false-negative and incorrect results. Current works indicate that COVID-19 can also be diagnosed using imaging resolutions, including CT scans, X-rays, and blood tests. Nevertheless, X-rays and CT scans cannot always be used for patient screening because of high costs, radiation doses, and an insufficient number of devices. Therefore, there is a requirement for a less expensive and faster diagnostic model to recognize the positive and negative cases of COVID-19. Blood tests are easily performed and cost less than RT-PCR and imaging tests. Since biochemical parameters in routine blood tests vary during the COVID-19 infection, they may supply physicians with exact information about the diagnosis of COVID-19. This study reviewed some newly emerging artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods to diagnose COVID-19 using routine blood tests. We gathered information about research resources and inspected 92 articles that were carefully chosen from a variety of publishers, such as IEEE, Springer, Elsevier, and MDPI. Then, these 92 studies are classified into two tables which contain articles that use machine Learning and deep Learning models to diagnose COVID-19 while using routine blood test datasets. In these studies, for diagnosing COVID-19, Random Forest and logistic regression are the most widely used machine learning methods and the most widely used performance metrics are accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and AUC. Finally, we conclude by discussing and analyzing these studies which use machine learning and deep learning models and routine blood test datasets for COVID-19 detection. This survey can be the starting point for a novice-/beginner-level researcher to perform on COVID-19 classification.Article Citation - WoS: 6Deep Learning-Based Defect Prediction for Mobile Applications(Mdpi, 2022) Jorayeva, Manzura; Akbulut, Akhan; Catal, Cagatay; Mishra, AlokSmartphones have enabled the widespread use of mobile applications. However, there are unrecognized defects of mobile applications that can affect businesses due to a negative user experience. To avoid this, the defects of applications should be detected and removed before release. This study aims to develop a defect prediction model for mobile applications. We performed cross-project and within-project experiments and also used deep learning algorithms, such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) and long short term memory (LSTM) to develop a defect prediction model for Android-based applications. Based on our within-project experimental results, the CNN-based model provides the best performance for mobile application defect prediction with a 0.933 average area under ROC curve (AUC) value. For cross-project mobile application defect prediction, there is still room for improvement when deep learning algorithms are preferred.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Classification of Different Recycled Rubber-Epoxy Composite Based on Their Hardness Using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (libs) With Comparison Machine Learning Algorithms(Mdpi, 2023) Yilmaz, Vadi Su; Yılmaz, Vadi Su; Eseller, Kemal Efe; Aslan, Ozgur; Aslan, Özgür; Bayraktar, Emin; Eseller, Kemal Efe; Yılmaz, Vadi Su; Aslan, Özgür; Eseller, Kemal Efe; Electrical-Electronics Engineering; Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering; Mechanical Engineering; Electrical-Electronics Engineering; Mechanical Engineering; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringThis paper aims toward the successful detection of harmful materials in a substance by integrating machine learning (ML) into laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS).

SVM as a nonparametric binary classification technique is already a widely used method in financial time series forecasting. In the literature, a bubble is often defined as a situation where the asset price exceeds its fundamental value. As one of the early warning signals, prediction of bubbles is vital for policymakers and regulators who are responsible to take preemptive measures against the future crises. Therefore, many attempts have been made to understand the main factors in bubble formation and to predict them in their earlier phases. Our analysis consists of two steps. The first step is to identify the bubbles in the S&P 500 index using a widely recognized right-tailed unit root test. Then, SVM is employed to predict the bubbles by macroeconomic indicators. Also, we compare SVM with different supervised learning algorithms by usingk-fold cross-validation. The experimental results show that the proposed approach with high predictive power could be a favourable alternative in bubble prediction.Article Radar Emitter Localization Based on Multipath Exploitation Using Machine Learning(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2024) Catak, Ferhat Ozgur; Al Imran, Md Abdullah; Dalveren, Yaser; Yildiz, Beytullah; Kara, AliIn this study, a Machine Learning (ML)-based approach is proposed to enhance the computational efficiency of a particular method that was previously proposed by the authors for passive localization of radar emitters based on multipath exploitation with a single receiver in Electronic Support Measures (ESM) systems. The idea is to utilize a ML model on a dataset consisting of useful features obtained from the priori-known operational environment. To verify the applicability and computational efficiency of the proposed approach, simulations are performed on the pseudo-realistic scenes to create the datasets. Well-known regression ML models are trained and tested on the created datasets. The performance of the proposed approach is then evaluated in terms of localization accuracy and computational speed. Based on the results, it is verified that the proposed approach is computationally efficient and implementable in radar detection applications on the condition that the operational environment is known prior to implementation.
