Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 8A Novel Hybrid Machine Learning-Based System Using Deep Learning Techniques and Meta-Heuristic Algorithms for Various Medical Datatypes Classification(Mdpi, 2024) Kadhim, Yezi Ali; Guzel, Mehmet Serdar; Mishra, AlokMedicine is one of the fields where the advancement of computer science is making significant progress. Some diseases require an immediate diagnosis in order to improve patient outcomes. The usage of computers in medicine improves precision and accelerates data processing and diagnosis. In order to categorize biological images, hybrid machine learning, a combination of various deep learning approaches, was utilized, and a meta-heuristic algorithm was provided in this research. In addition, two different medical datasets were introduced, one covering the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain tumors and the other dealing with chest X-rays (CXRs) of COVID-19. These datasets were introduced to the combination network that contained deep learning techniques, which were based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) or autoencoder, to extract features and combine them with the next step of the meta-heuristic algorithm in order to select optimal features using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. This combination sought to reduce the dimensionality of the datasets while maintaining the original performance of the data. This is considered an innovative method and ensures highly accurate classification results across various medical datasets. Several classifiers were employed to predict the diseases. The COVID-19 dataset found that the highest accuracy was 99.76% using the combination of CNN-PSO-SVM. In comparison, the brain tumor dataset obtained 99.51% accuracy, the highest accuracy derived using the combination method of autoencoder-PSO-KNN.Article Citation - WoS: 104Citation - Scopus: 163Cassava Disease Recognition From Low-Quality Images Using Enhanced Data Augmentation Model and Deep Learning(Wiley, 2021) Abayomi-Alli, Olusola Oluwakemi; Damasevicius, Robertas; Misra, Sanjay; Maskeliunas, RytisImprovement of deep learning algorithms in smart agriculture is important to support the early detection of plant diseases, thereby improving crop yields. Data acquisition for machine learning applications is an expensive task due to the requirements of expert knowledge and professional equipment. The usability of any application in a real-world setting is often limited by unskilled users and the limitations of devices used for acquiring images for classification. We aim to improve the accuracy of deep learning models on low-quality test images using data augmentation techniques for neural network training. We generate synthetic images with a modified colour value distribution to expand the trainable image colour space and to train the neural network to recognize important colour-based features, which are less sensitive to the deficiencies of low-quality images such as those affected by blurring or motion. This paper introduces a novel image colour histogram transformation technique for generating synthetic images for data augmentation in image classification tasks. The approach is based on the convolution of the Chebyshev orthogonal functions with the probability distribution functions of image colour histograms. To validate our proposed model, we used four methods (resolution down-sampling, Gaussian blurring, motion blur, and overexposure) for reducing image quality from the Cassava leaf disease dataset. The results based on the modified MobileNetV2 neural network showed a statistically significant improvement of cassava leaf disease recognition accuracy on lower-quality testing images when compared with the baseline network. The model can be easily deployed for recognizing and detecting cassava leaf diseases in lower quality images, which is a major factor in practical data acquisition.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Toxicity Detection Using State of the Art Natural Language Methodologies(Ieee, 2023) Keskin, Enes Faruk; Acikgoz, Erkut; Dogan, GulustanIn this paper, the studies carried out to detect objectionable expressions in any text will be explained.

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: 24Citation - Scopus: 28Prediction of Composite Mechanical Properties: Integration of Deep Neural Network Methods and Finite Element Analysis(Mdpi, 2023) Gholami, Kimia; Ege, Faraz; Barzegar, RaminExtracting the mechanical properties of a composite hydrogel; e.g., bioglass (BG)-collagen (COL), is often difficult due to the complexity of the experimental procedure. BGs could be embedded in the COL and thereby improve the mechanical properties of COL for bone tissue engineering applications. This paper proposed a deep-learning-based approach to extract the mechanical properties of a composite hydrogel directly from the microstructural images. Four datasets of various shapes of BGs (9000 2D images) generated by a finite element analysis showed that the deep neural network (DNN) model could efficiently predict the mechanical properties of the composite hydrogel, including the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio. ResNet and AlexNet architecture were tuned to ensure the excellent performance and high accuracy of the proposed methods with R-values greater than 0.99 and a mean absolute error of the prediction of less than 7%. The results for the full dataset revealed that AlexNet had a better performance than ResNet in predicting the elastic material properties of BGs-COL with R-values of 0.99 and 0.97 compared to 0.97 and 0.96 for the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio, respectively. This work provided bridging methods to combine a finite element analysis and a DNN for applications in diverse fields such as tissue engineering, materials science, and medical engineering.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 22A Data-Driven Model To Forecast Multi-Step Ahead Time Series of Turkish Daily Electricity Load(Mdpi, 2022) Unlu, Kamil Demirberk; Ünlü, Kamil Demirberk; Ünlü, Kamil Demirberk; Industrial Engineering; Industrial EngineeringIt is critical to maintain a balance between the supply and the demand for electricity because of its non-storable feature. For power-producing facilities and traders, an electrical load is a piece of fundamental and vital information to have, particularly in terms of production planning, daily operations, and unit obligations, among other things. This study offers a deep learning methodology to model and forecast multistep daily Turkish electricity loads using the data between 5 January 2015, and 26 December 2021. One major reason for the growing popularity of deep learning is the creation of new and creative deep neural network topologies and significant computational advancements. Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Network, and Convolutional Neural Network are trained and compared to forecast 1 day to 7 days ahead of daily electricity load. Three different performance metrics including coefficient of determination (R-2), root mean squared error, and mean absolute error were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithms. The forecasting results on the test set showed that the best performance is achieved by LSTM. The algorithm has an R-2 of 0.94 for 1 day ahead forecast, and the metric decreases to 0.73 in 7 days ahead forecast.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 44Text Classification Using Improved Bidirectional Transformer(Wiley, 2022) Tezgider, Murat; Yıldız, Beytullah; Yildiz, Beytullah; Aydin, Galip; Yıldız, BeytullahText data have an important place in our daily life. A huge amount of text data is generated everyday. As a result, automation becomes necessary to handle these large text data. Recently, we are witnessing important developments with the adaptation of new approaches in text processing. Attention mechanisms and transformers are emerging as methods with significant potential for text processing. In this study, we introduced a bidirectional transformer (BiTransformer) constructed using two transformer encoder blocks that utilize bidirectional position encoding to take into account the forward and backward position information of text data. We also created models to evaluate the contribution of attention mechanisms to the classification process. Four models, including long short term memory, attention, transformer, and BiTransformer, were used to conduct experiments on a large Turkish text dataset consisting of 30 categories. The effect of using pretrained embedding on models was also investigated. Experimental results show that the classification models using transformer and attention give promising results compared with classical deep learning models. We observed that the BiTransformer we proposed showed superior performance in text classification.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 13Improving Word Embedding Quality With Innovative Automated Approaches To Hyperparameters(Wiley, 2021) Yildiz, Beytullah; Yıldız, Beytullah; Tezgider, Murat; Yıldız, BeytullahDeep learning practices have a great impact in many areas. Big data and significant hardware developments are the main reasons behind deep learning success. Recent advances in deep learning have led to significant improvements in text analysis and classification. Progress in the quality of word representation is an important factor among these improvements. In this study, we aimed to develop word2vec word representation, also called embedding, by automatically optimizing hyperparameters. Minimum word count, vector size, window size, negative sample, and iteration number were used to improve word embedding. We introduce two approaches for setting hyperparameters that are faster than grid search and random search. Word embeddings were created using documents of approximately 300 million words. We measured the quality of word embedding using a deep learning classification model on documents of 10 different classes. It was observed that the optimization of the values of hyperparameters alone increased classification success by 9%. In addition, we demonstrate the benefits of our approaches by comparing the semantic and syntactic relations between word embedding using default and optimized hyperparameters.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 6A Mini-Review on Radio Frequency Fingerprinting Localization in Outdoor Environments: Recent Advances and Challenges(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Dogan,D.; Dalveren,Y.; Kara,A.A considerable growth in demand for locating the source of emissions in outdoor environments has led to the rapid development of various localization methods.

In order to evaluate its effectiveness, the proposed model is tested on a new dataset containing tiny (100 x 100 pixels) and low resolution (96 dpi) vehicle images. The proposed model is then compared with well-known VGG16-based CNN models in terms of accuracy and complexity. Results indicate that although the well-known models provide higher accuracy, the proposed method offers an acceptable accuracy (92.9%) as well as a simple and lightweight solution for vehicle classification in low quality images. Thus, it is believed that this study might provide useful perception and understanding for further research on the use of standard low-cost cameras to enhance the ability of the intelligent systems such as intelligent transportation system applications.
