Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1A Framework for Fuzzy Video Content Extraction, Storage and Retrieval(2010) Koyuncu,M.; Yilmaz,T.; Yildirim,Y.; Yazici,A.This study presents a new comprehensive framework for semantic content extraction from raw video, storage of the extracted data and retrieval of the stored data. Objects, spatial relations between objects, events and temporal relations between events, which are considered as semantic contents of the video, are extracted automatically to a certain extend with the developed approach. Extraction process is supported by manual annotation when automatic extraction is not satisfactory. The extracted information is stored in an intelligent fuzzy object-oriented database in which the database is enhanced with a fuzzy knowledge-based system. Domain specific deduction rules can be defined to derive new information about semantic contents of the video. The database is also supported by an access structure to increase retrieval efficiency. The proposed framework is capable of handling uncertain data arising from annotation process or video nature. © 2010 IEEE.Conference Object Energy Dissipation Characteristics of Wireless Sensor Networks With Unidirectional Links;(2012) Özyer,S.T.; Tavli,B.; Koyuncu,M.Link unidirectionality is a commonly encountered phenomena in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), which is a natural result of various properties of wireless transceivers as well as the environment. Transmission power heterogeneity is the dominant factor that creates unidirectional links. In this study, we investigate the impact of transmission power heterogeneity on the lifetime of WSNs through a novel Linear Programming (LP) framework both for networks that utilize only bidirectional links and for those that can use bidirectional links as well as unidirectional links. Our results show that transmission power heterogeneity can lead to more than 25 % decrease in network lifetime for networks that utilize only bidirectional links when compared to a network without any heterogeneity. However, if the use of unidirectional links is also enabled then, the decrease in network lifetime is at most 12 %. © 2012 IEEE.Conference Object An Alternative Product Extraction Method for E-Commerce Applications(2007) Koyuncu,M.Customers generally like to see alternative products and compare their characteristics and prices before deciding on one of them. Therefore, proposing alternative products is one of the crucial issues for e-commerce applications to increase customer satisfaction. This paper proposes a fuzzy similarity-based approach to determine similar products recorded in a database and submit them intelligently to the customer in a ranked way as alternative products. © 2007 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Metu-Mmds: an Intelligent Multimedia Database System for Multimodal Content Extraction and Querying(Springer Verlag, 2016) Yazici,A.; Sattari,S.; Yilmaz,T.; Sert,M.; Koyuncu,M.; Gulen,E.Managing a large volume of multimedia data, which contain various modalities (visual, audio, and text), reveals the need for a specialized multimedia database system (MMDS) to efficiently model, process, store and retrieve video shots based on their semantic content. This demo introduces METU-MMDS, an intelligent MMDS which employs both machine learning and database techniques. The system extracts semantic content automatically by using visual, audio and textual data, stores the extracted content in an appropriate format and uses this content to efficiently retrieve video shots. The system architecture supports various multimedia query types including unimodal querying, multimodal querying, query-by-concept, query-by-example, and utilizes a multimedia index structure for efficiently querying multi-dimensional multimedia data. We demonstrate METU-MMDS for semantic data extraction from videos and complex multimedia querying by considering content and concept-based queries containing all modalities. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.
