    Papercraft Doppler Radar Measurements Based on Covariance Eigenvalue Spectrum-Assisted Empirical Mode Decomposition
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Atac, Enes; Onay, Fatih; Karatay, Anil
    Doppler radar systems encounter challenges due to their high costs, cumbersome designs, and heavy weights, especially in resource-limited environments. As a promising alternative, papercraft Doppler radar has emerged, offering a lightweight, easily deployable and cost-effective solution. However, despite many advantages, papercraft-based radar faces inherent challenges due to the material used, which leads to vulnerability to external stimuli. In this article, a novel method is proposed demonstrating that papercraft Doppler radar can achieve high performance comparable to its aluminum counterparts and perform multitarget detection even in noisy environment with multiple stimuli. For the first time, we integrate a papercraft Doppler radar with the proposed covariance eigenvalue spectrum (CES)-assisted empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method, significantly improving the performance of the papercraft radar system. Single and multitarget detection, exploiting proper intrinsic mode function (IMF) selection, is achieved through the CES algorithm, which distinguishes between the target and unwanted components via proper windowing and weighting of the decomposed radar signal. According to the results, the proposed method significantly enhances multitarget movement detection and outperforms existing methods.

    Community Detection for Large Graphs on GPUs With Unified Memory
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Dincer, Emre; Öz, Işıl; Oz, Isil
    While GPUs accelerate applications from different domains with different characteristics, processing large datasets gets infeasible on target systems with limited device memory. Unified memory support makes it possible to work with data larger than available GPU memory. However, page migration overhead for executions with irregular memory access patterns, like graph processing workloads, induces severe performance degradation. While memory hints help to deal with page movements by keeping data in suitable memory spaces, coarse-grain configurations can still not avoid migrations for executions having diverse data structures. In this work, we target the state-of-the-art CUDA implementation of the Louvain community detection algorithm and evaluate the impacts of the fine-grained unified memory hints on the performance. Our experimental evaluation shows that memory hints configured for specific data structures reveal significant performance improvements and enable us to work efficiently with large graphs.

    Consistency Analysis of Kalman Filter for Modal Analysis of Structures
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Tanyer, İlker; Özen, Serdar; Dönmez, Cemalettin; Altınkaya, Mustafa Aziz
    In this paper, Consistency Analysis of Kalman Filter for Modal Analysis of Structural Systems is made. As a future work, A fundamental Modal Analysis algorithm, Eigensystem Realization Algorithm(ERA) will be used with Kalman filters together to make a modal parameter estimation for a structural system. By applying ERA to the impulse response measurements taken from the structure, a state-space representation will be written. Kalman filter will be used as a state estimator in this study and it will have a critical role on minimizing the measurement noise. Before using Kalman filter with ERA, a consistency analysis of Kalman filter is made for artificial impulse response data of the structural system.

    Alpha-Trimmed Means of Multiple Location Estimates
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013) Altınkaya, Mustafa Aziz
    Localization by distance measurements is a common technique for solving this contemporary problem. The methods which achieve the theoretically optimum solutions have generally iterative structures. That is why when limited computational load is required, suboptimum methods described by closed form formulas like the one of Coope which depends on orthogonal decomposition of sensor coordinates, are preferred. In this method, when there are more than necessary distance measurements required for localization, the location will be found as the arithmetic average of the estimates obtained using the all three-combinations of distance measurements. In the averaging, eliminating the outlier estimates will increase the performance. In this case discarding the estimates making the ratio of alpha which are farthest away from the arithmetic average, one attains the socalled alpha-trimmed mean of the estimates. Applying this technique, the disturbing effects of impulsive mixture of Gaussian contamination are eliminated and similar performances as in the case of Gaussian distance measurements are attained in localization.

    A Bayesian Approach for Licence Plate Recognition Developed on a Realistic Simulation Environment
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013) Efeler, Mahmut Cenk; Altınkaya, Mustafa Aziz; Gümüştekin, Şevket
    Template matching is one of the most common methods for license plate recognition. This method discards prior probabilities of license plate codes. The posterior code class probabilities constructed by including the prior probability information are expected to improve the recognition performance. The probability information that needs to be included requires extensive training data, which is quite costly to obtain. In order to generate these training images a license plate image simulator is developed with a realistic noise model. Simulated license plate images are then used to test a Bayesian decision theory based recognition procedure. Test results indicate that, with the inclusion of prior information, significant recognition gain is obtained with respect to standard template matching method at high noise levels.

    Car Detection With Omnidirectional Cameras Using Haar-Like Features and Cascaded Boosting
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014) Karaimer, Hakkı Can; Baştanlar, Yalın
    This paper presents an approach to detects cars in omnidirectional images. We first go through the conventional method of using Haar-like features and cascaded boosting for conventional camera images. Then, to apply this method for omnidirectional cameras, we generate panoramic images from omnidirectional ones. In this way we perform car detection on a single image without generating numerous perspective images from the omnidirectional view. We also discuss two different ways of panoramic image generation and conclude that spherical profile panoramas are more convenient than cylindrical panoramas. We present our car detection experiments on real omnidirectional images.

    Robust Control of a Rigid Link in a Cross Flow
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Bıdıklı, Barış; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, Erkan
    Remotely operated vehicles equipped with a robotic manipulator are utilized in several underwater/deep sea applications. Control of these type of systems are mostly provided by obtaining the proper position for the end effector of robotic manipulator which constitutes the desired motion for remotely operated vehicle. This situation makes the control of robotic manipulators is really important subject for underwater applications. In this work, we study tracking control of a one degree-of-freedom rigid link in a cross flow. Systems operating at underwater (including this one) are hard to model accurately, and as a result their models include several uncertainties. To reject these modeling uncertainties and external ones, two robust controllers are proposed. Stability of the closed-loop system and the asymptotic convergence of the tracking error are proven mathematically. Numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the viability of the proposed controller.

    Continuous Robust Task-Space Tracking Control of Robotic Manipulators With Uncertain Dynamics
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Cetin, K.; Tatlicioglu, E.; Zergeroglu, E.
    In this work, the problem of robust task space control of robotic manipulators with continuous control inputs have been considered. Under mild assumptions on kinematic formulation and dynamics of the robot manipulator, a continuous robust controller have been proposed. The proposed controller ensures asymptotic end-effector tracking despite the presence of unstructured uncertainties associated with the dynamical terms. Numerical simulations conducted on a two degree-of-freedom robot manipulator is also presented to illustrate the feasibility and performance of the proposed controller. © 2015 IEEE.
