    Automata Networks as Preprocessing Technique of Artificial Neural Network in Estimating Primary Production and Dominating Phytoplankton Levels in a Reservoir
    (Elsevier, 2006) Kilic, Hurevren; Soyupak, Selcuk; Gurbuz, Hasan; Kivrak, Ersin
    Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) is computational architectures that can be used for estimating primary production levels and dominating phytoplankton species in reservoirs. Automata Networks (AN) were applied as a pre-processing method with subsequent ANN model development for Demirdoven Dam Reservoir. The primary purpose of using preprocessing technique was to distinguish the suitable and appropriate constituents of the input parameters' matrix, to eliminate redundancy, to enhance prediction power and calculation efficiency. The data were collected monthly over two years. The applications have yielded following results: The correlation coefficients (r values) between predicted and observed counts were as high as 0.83, 0.87, 0.83 and 0.88 for Cyclotella ocellata, Sphaerocystis schroeteri, Staurastrum longiradiatum counts, and Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations respectively with AN. The performance of AN based pre-processing technique was compared with the performance of a well-known pre-processing technique, namely Principle Component Analysis(PCA), experimentally. r values between the predicted and observed C. ocellata, S. schroeteri and S. longiradiatum counts, and (Chl-a) were as high as 0.80, 0.86, 0.81 and 0.86 respectively with PCA.

    Two-Stage Feature Generator for Handwritten Digit Classification
    (Mdpi, 2023) Pirim, M. Altinay Gunler; Tora, Hakan; Oztoprak, Kasim; Butun, Ismail
    In this paper, a novel feature generator framework is proposed for handwritten digit classification. The proposed framework includes a two-stage cascaded feature generator. The first stage is based on principal component analysis (PCA), which generates projected data on principal components as features. The second one is constructed by a partially trained neural network (PTNN), which uses projected data as inputs and generates hidden layer outputs as features. The features obtained from the PCA and PTNN-based feature generator are tested on the MNIST and USPS datasets designed for handwritten digit sets. Minimum distance classifier (MDC) and support vector machine (SVM) methods are exploited as classifiers for the obtained features in association with this framework. The performance evaluation results show that the proposed framework outperforms the state-of-the-art techniques and achieves accuracies of 99.9815% and 99.9863% on the MNIST and USPS datasets, respectively. The results also show that the proposed framework achieves almost perfect accuracies, even with significantly small training data sizes.
