Identifying the genres of movies is a challenging task because genres are intangible features that are not physically present in any movie scene, so off-the-shelf image detection models may not be easily integrated into this process. In this study, we aim to address the detection of movies according to their genres using deep learning algorithms. Movie poster data of IMDB and MM-IMDB datasets were utilized in our multi-label movie genre detection studies. In our experiments, we utilized four modern pre-trained models follow as DenseNet, VGG-16, ResNet-50, and MobileNet, and evaluated their performance using performance metric values such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F-score. According to the obtained empirical results, the DenseNet architecture achieved the highest accuracy values compared to other deep learning methods in detecting multi-label movie genre detection with an impressive rates of 91.64% and 92.56%. © 2024 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Parking Space Occupancy Detection Using Deep Learning Methods(Ieee, 2018) Akinci, Fatih Can; Karakaya, MuratThis paper presents an approach for gathering information about the availabilty of the parking lots using Convoltional Neural Network (CNN) for image processing running on an embedded system.

Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have revolutionized glaucoma care by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, monitoring disease progression, and personalizing treatment strategies. AI models, including machine learning and deep learning algorithms, have demonstrated exceptional performance in analyzing fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, and visual field data, surpassing traditional diagnostic methods. Convolutional neural networks have shown high sensitivity and specificity in detecting glaucomatous changes, while vision transformers and hybrid AI models further refine risk assessment and prognosis. Additionally, AI-powered monitoring systems utilizing multi-modal data integration allow for more precise prediction of disease progression and the need for surgical intervention. The incorporation of AI into telemedicine and wearable intraocular pressure sensors extends glaucoma management to remote and underserved populations. Despite these advancements, challenges remain, including issues related to algorithm generalizability, data standardization, bias, and ethical concerns regarding AI-driven clinical decision-making. To maximize AI’s potential in glaucoma care, further interdisciplinary research, regulatory oversight, and multi-center validation studies are needed. By addressing these challenges, AI can be effectively integrated into clinical practice, leading to improved early detection, enhanced treatment strategies, and more personalized patient care. The future of AI in glaucoma management holds great promise, paving the way for a more data-driven and patient-centered approach to combating this sight-threatening disease. © 2024 The author(s).Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2An Undergraduate Curriculum for Deep Learning(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Tirkes,G.; Ekin,C.C.; Engul,G.; Bostan,A.; Karakaya,M.Deep 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.

Although the deep learning-based meteorological forecasting is significantly studied in literature, most of the current literature applies single-algorithm based on each individual energy source and less multi-algorithm based on comparative studies on multiple architectures as applied to integrated hybrid systems. In addition, most of the research uses the same algorithmic solution to all the meteorological parameters without identifying parameter-specific optimization potential, and recent research is verified on actual future time steps instead of historical train-test split. This study presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of five deep learning algorithms, Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), and CNN-LSTM hybrid, for forecasting critical meteorological parameters (wind speed, ambient temperature, and solar radiation) that determine energy output in a wind and solar-based hybrid energy system (HES). Using five years of Istanbul meteorological data (2018-2022), optimal algorithms were systematically identified for each parameter through rigorous hyperparameter optimization and cross-validation. Key results demonstrate that GRU achieves superior performance in wind speed prediction (RMSE: 0.049 m/s, R2: 0.8634) and solar radiation forecasting (RMSE: 0.146 W/m2, R2: 0.6643), while CNN-LSTM excels in ambient temperature prediction (RMSE: 0.011 degrees C, R2: 0.9976). The integrated approach predicted annual hybrid system energy production with 89 % accuracy, demonstrating 0.48 % deviation from observed values. Most significantly, our framework successfully forecasted sixth year (2023) energy production with 1.55 % error, validating its real-world applicability. This research contributes to the methodological advancement of renewable energy forecasting by systematically identifying optimal algorithmic approaches for different meteorological parameters in hybrid systems, thereby supporting the integration of intermittent renewable sources into sustainable energy infrastructures.Article Univariate Deep Learning Models for Short-Term Electricity Load Forecasting from Renewables(Ankara Univ, Fac Sci, 2025) Kabran, Fatma Basoglu; Unlu, Kamil DemirberkRenewable energy offers a cost-effective, carbon-free solution for energy needs, while protecting the environment. Accurate forecasting of electricity generation from renewable sources is crucial for the efficiency of modern power grids. This study employs a univariate deep learning approach to predict daily renewable energy generation, evaluating Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) as candidate models. Five performance metrics-mean absolute error, root mean squared error, mean absolute percentage error, mean absolute scaled error and the coefficient of determination-are employed to assess the forecasting power of the algorithms. The empirical results show that CNN outperforms other models, achieving an R2 of almost 94%. This research shows that the univariate model based on historical data of electricity load generated from renewables can accurately predict day-ahead electricity load, even without meteorological data.Conference Object An Undergraduate Curriculum for Deep Learning(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Tirkes,G.; Ekin,C.C.; Engul,G.; Bostan,A.; Karakaya,M.Deep 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.
