Article The Effect of Statistically Constrained Minimum Mean Square Estimation Algorithm Which Is Used for Human Head Tissue Conductivity Estimation To Source Localization(Journal Neurological Sciences, 2012) Sengul, Gokhan; Şengül, Gökhan; Baysal, Ugur; Şengül, Gökhan; Computer Engineering; Computer Engineering; Computer EngineeringDetermining the electrical active regions of human brain by using EEG and/or MEG data is known as "EEG/MEG bioelectromagnetic inverse problem" or "source localization". A typical source localization system intakes not only EEG/MEG data but also geometry information of subject/patient, a priori information about the electrically active sources, the number and 3-D positions of measurement electrodes and conductivities/resistivities of the tissues in the head model. In this study we investigated the conductivity estimation performance previously proposed Statistically Constrainted Minimum Mean Square Error Estimation (MiMSEE) algorithm by simulation studies and we also investigated the effect of the estimation to source localization activities. In simulation studies we used a three-layered (composed of scalp, skull and brain regions) realistic head model to estimate 100 different conductivity distributions in vivo. As a result we found that the proposed algorithm estimates the conductivity of scalp with an average error of 23%, the conductivity of skull with an average error of 40% and finally the conductivity of brain with an average error of 17%. In the second part of the study we compared the source localization errors for two cases: one, when the average conductivities of tissues given in the literature are used, and second when the subject-specific conductivity estimation is performed with MiMSEE algorithm. The results showed 10.1 mm localization error is obtained when the average conductivities given in the literature are used and 2.7 mm localization is obtained when subject-specific conductivity estimation is performed with MiMSEE algorithm. The results shows that the localization error is reduced by 73.07% when subject-specific conductivity estimation is performed with MiMSEE algorithm. We conclude that using the conductivities obtained from MiMSEE algorithm reduces the source localization error and we recommend to perform subject-specific conductivity estimation for source localization applications.Article Citation - Scopus: 21Comparative Analysis of Programming Languages Utilized in Artificial Intelligence Applications: Features, Performance, and Suitability(Prof.Dr. İskender AKKURT, 2024) Sezen, Arda; Türkmen, Güzin; Şengül, GökhanThis study presents a detailed comparative analysis of the foremost programming languages employed in Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications: Python, R, Java, and Julia. These languages are analysed for their performance, features, ease of use, scalability, library support, and their applicability to various AI tasks such as machine learning, data analysis, and scientific computing. Each language is evaluated based on syntax and readability, execution speed, library ecosystem, and integration with external tools. The analysis incorporates a use case of code writing for a linear regression task. The aim of this research is to guide AI practitioners, researchers, and developers in choosing the most appropriate programming language for their specific needs, optimizing both the development process and the performance of AI applications. The findings also highlight the ongoing evolution and community support for these languages, influencing long-term sustainability and adaptability in the rapidly advancing field of AI. This comparative assessment contributes to a deeper understanding of how programming languages can enhance or constrain the development and implementation of AI technologies.
