    Dalgacık gürültü giderme yöntemiyle mikrodalga bileşen karakterizasyonunun iyileştirilmesi
    (IEEE, 2023) Karatay, Anıl; Olcay, Bilal Orkan; Yaman, Fatih
    In this study, an efficient approach is presented to improve the characterization of various microwave components commonly used in communication and radar applications, such as antennas and power dividers. The components were initially simulated and then fabricated using the Computer Simulation Technology (CST) software. Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) measurements of the fabricated components were performed using a low-cost but noisy coaxial cable, and the measurement results were processed using a wavelet-based noise reduction method. For comparison purposes, the Haar and Daubechies-4 (DB4) wavelet functions were applied separately, and the results were examined. It was observed that the correlation and root mean square error between the ideal and measurement results improved in a positive direction with the noise reduction application. This approach provides significant cost and labor advantages, particularly when expensive elements such as gold and silver are used in coaxial cables that are physically free from noise. The experimental and numerical results show good agreement between the ideal simulation results and the filtered measurement results.

    Evaluation of Synchronization Measures for Capturing the Lagged Synchronization Between Eeg Channels: a Cognitive Task Recognition Approach
    (Elsevier, 2019) Olcay, Bilal Orkan; Karaçalı, Bilge
    During cognitive, perceptual and sensory tasks, connectivity profile changes across different regions of the brain. Variations of such connectivity patterns between different cognitive tasks can be evaluated using pairwise synchronization measures applied to electrophysiological signals, such as electroencephalography (EEG). However, connectivity-based task recognition approaches achieving viable recognition performance have been lacking from the literature. By using several synchronization measures, we identify time lags between channel pairs during different cognitive tasks. We employed mutual information, cross correntropy, cross correlation, phase locking value, cosine similarity and nonlinear interdependence measures. In the training phase, for each type of cognitive task, we identify the time lags that maximize the average synchronization between channel pairs. These lags are used to calculate pairwise synchronization values with which we construct the train and test feature vectors for recognition of the cognitive task carried out using Fisher's linear discriminant (FLD) analysis. We tested our framework in a motor imagery activity recognition scenario on PhysioNet Motor Movement/Imagery and BCI Competition-III IVa datasets. For PhysioNet dataset, average performance results ranging between % 51 and % 61 across 20 subjects. For BCI Competition-III dataset, we achieve an average recognition performance of % 76 which is above the minimum reliable communication rate (% 70). We achieved an average accuracy over the minimum reliable communication rate on the BCI Competition-III dataset. Performance levels were lower on the PhysioNet dataset. These results indicate that a viable task recognition system is achievable using pairwise synchronization measures evaluated at the proper task specific lags.

    Eeg Verisinde Kanallar-arası Zaman Uyumluluk Profilleri Kullanılarak Hayali Hareket Tanıma
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016) Olcay, Bilal Orkan; Özgören, Murat; Karaçalı, Bilge
    Bu çalışmada, elektrotlar arası zaman gecikmesi kullanılarak bir beyin-bilgisayar ara yüzü çalışması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Öznitelik olarak, seçilen referans kanalı ile geriye kalan tüm kanalların çapraz kovaryansının mutlak değerinin en yüksek olduğu zaman gecikmeleri hesaplanmıştır. Çalışmada kullanılan 5 kişi içinden 3 kişinin sınıflandırma performansının %100’e yakın olmasının yanında bu kişilerin eğitim veri seti sayısının diğer iki kişiye göre oldukça düşük olması ve literatürde buna benzer çalışmaların azlığı, önerilen yaklaşımın geliştirilmeye açık olduğunu göstermektedir.
