The main improvement of this study is the integration of new algorithms for expressive voice analysis, especially the separation of the glottal source and the vocal tract. Realtime synthesis modules have also been refined. These elements have been integrated in an existing digital instrument: the HANDSKETCH 1.X, a bimanual controller. Moreover this digital instrument is compared to existing systems.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7Signal Reconstruction in Diffusion-Based Molecular Communication(Wiley, 2019) Atakan, Barış; Güleç, FatihMolecular communication (MC) is an important nanoscale communication paradigm, which is employed for the interconnection of the nanomachines (NMs) to form nanonetworks. A transmitter NM (TN) sends the information symbols by emitting molecules into the transmission medium and a receiver NM (RN) receives the information symbols by sensing the molecule concentration. In this paper, a model of how an RN measures and reconstructs the molecular signal is proposed. The signal around the RN is assumed to be a Gaussian random process instead of the less realistic deterministic approach. After the reconstructed signal is derived as a doubly stochastic poisson process, the distortion between the signal around the RN and the reconstructed signal is derived as a new performance parameter in MC systems. The derived distortion, which is a function of system parameters such as RN radius, sampling period, and the diffusion coefficient of the channel, is shown to be valid by employing random walk simulations. Then, it is shown that the original signal can be satisfactorily reconstructed with a sufficiently low level of distortion. Finally, optimum RN design parameters, namely, RN radius, sampling period, and sampling frequency, are derived by minimizing the signal distortion. The simulation results reveal that there is a trade-off among the RN design parameters which can be jointly set for a desired signal distortion.Article Traffic Aware Cell Selection Algorithm for Tetra Trunk Based Professional Mobile Radio(Springer Verlag, 2019) Özbek, Berna; Karataş, Azad; Bardak, Erinç Deniz; Sönmez, İlkerLoad balancing and traffic management are the critical needs in cell selection decision for a better and seamless communication demands in professional mobile radios. For the cases where cell selection algorithms do not consider the traffic load, there may be call drops due to the congestion in networks or longer call setup times for the users. These undesired consequences can cause dramatic quality degradation especially for the emergency cases or public safety services. In this paper, we propose two algorithms for Tetra Trunk based professional mobile radios by considering both traffic load and received signal strength indication (RSSI) in order to reduce the significant delays while establishing transmissions. The proposed full set cell selection algorithm is prioritized to reduce the call setup time for the mobile users and the proposed reduced set cell selection algorithm is focused on minimizing the number of RSSI measurements which causes significant delay in practical professional mobile radio. We illustrate the performance results in terms of delay for Tetra Trunk based professional mobile radio.Article A Saliency-Weighted Orthogonal Regression-Based Similarity Measure for Entropic Graphs(Springer, 2019) Ergün, Aslı; Ergün, Serkan; Ünlü, Mehmet Zübeyir; Güngör, CengizVarious measures are used to determine similarity ratios among images before and after image registration. Image registration methods are based on finding the translation, rotation, and scaling parameters that maximize the similarity between two images by taking advantage of the feature points and densities that are found. While the similarity criterion is calculated, it is possible and advantageous to use approximation methods on the graphs based on information theory. The current study proposes a new similarity measure based on saliency-weighted orthogonal regression derived from the weighted sums of the saliency map of the orthogonal regression residuals formed on the entropic graph. It is evaluated in terms of both quantitative and qualitative methods and compared with other graph-based similarity measures.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Reconstruction of Geometrical and Reflection Properties of Surfaces by Using Structured Light Imaging Technique(Türkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018) Ozan, Şükrü; Gümüştekin, ŞevketWhen a robust and dense surface reconstruction is aimed, structured light imaging techniques are usually much appreciated. In this paper we propose a method to reconstruct both geometrical and reflective properties of surfaces by using structured light imaging. We use a technique where a camera and a projector are both treated as viewing devices. They are calibrated in the same manner. Each visible point can be correctly located on both image planes without solving a correspondence problem; hence, a dense reconstruction can be obtained. Since both the camera and the projector are explicitly calibrated, lighting and viewing directions can be identified for each surface point. It is also possible to measure reflected radiance by using high dynamic range (HDR) images for each surface point. The lighting and viewing directions that are known after calibration are combined with the reflected radiance and the incoming irradiance measurements to determine the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) values of the material at the reconstructed surface points. We illustrate the reconstruction of surface reflection properties of sample surfaces by fitting the Phong BRDF model to the BRDF measurements.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 7On Operational Space Tracking Control of Robotic Manipulators With Uncertain Dynamic and Kinematic Terms(American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2019) Çetin, Kamil; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroǧlu, ErkanIn this study, a continuous robust-adaptive operational space controller that ensures asymptotic end-effector tracking, despite the uncertainties in robot dynamics and on the velocity level kinematics of the robot, is proposed. Specifically, a smooth robust controller is applied to compensate the parametric uncertainties related to the robot dynamics while an adaptive update algorithm is used to deal with the kinematic uncertainties. Rather than formulating the tracking problem in the joint space, as most of the previous works on the field have done, the controller formulation is presented in the operational space of the robot where the actual task is performed. Additionally, the robust part of the proposed controller is continuous ensuring the asymptotic tracking and relatively smooth controller effort. The stability of the overall system and boundedness of the closed loop signals are ensured via Lyapunov based arguments. Experimental results are presented to illustrate the feasibility and performance of the proposed method.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Quantification of Resistive Wall Instability for Particle Accelerator Machines(Türkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019) Yaman, FatihThe aim of this study is to quantify longitudinal resistive wall impedances, corresponding wake functions, and wake potentials for different accelerator machines of interest. Accurate calculations of wake potentials by particle-in-cell codes are extremely difficult for the investigated parameters; therefore, we use an analytical approach and consider large domains with fine discretization for the required numerical integrations. The semianalytical wake potential computations are benchmarked against numerical general purpose 2D/3D Maxwell solver software codes and a different analytical approach for a certain set of parameters. We report examples to illustrate limitations of wake potential estimations from coupling impedances, and computations for the machines using realistic beam parameters and machine conditions. A numerical example where the aim is to find the wake potential of the machine from the 5% noisy impedance data is given.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 18Separating Normosmic and Anosmic Patients Based on Entropy Evaluation of Olfactory Event-Related Potentials(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Güdücü, Çağdaş; Olcay, Bilal Orkan; Schaefer, L.; Aziz, M.; Schriever, V. A.; Özgören, Murat; Hummel, T.Objective: Methods based on electroencephalography (EEG) are used to evaluate brain responses to odors which is challenging due to the relatively low signal-to-noise ratio. This is especially difficult in patients with olfactory loss. In the present study, we aim to establish a method to separate functionally anosmic and normosmic individuals by means of recordings of olfactory event-related potentials (OERP) using an automated tool. Therefore, Shannon entropy was adopted to examine the complexity of the averaged electrophysiological responses. Methods: A total of 102 participants received 60 rose-like odorous stimuli at an inter-stimulus interval of 10 s. Olfactory-related brain activity was investigated within three time-windows of equal length; pre-, during-, and post-stimulus. Results: Based on entropy analysis, patients were correctly diagnosed for anosmia with a 75% success rate. Conclusion: This novel approach can be expected to help clinicians to identify patients with anosmia or patients with early symptoms of neurodegenerative disorders. Significance: There is no automated diagnostic tool for anosmic and normosmic patients using OERP. However, detectability of OERP in patients with functional anosmia has been reported to be in the range of 50%.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6An Extended Jacobian-Based Formulation for Operational Space Control of Kinematically Redundant Robot Manipulators With Multiple Subtask Objectives: An Adaptive Control Approach(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2019) Çetin, Kamil; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroğlu, ErkanIn this study, an extended Jacobian matrix formulation is proposed for the operational space tracking control of kinematically redundant robot manipulators with multiple subtask objectives. Furthermore, to compensate the structured uncertainties related to the robot dynamics, an adaptive operational space controller is designed, and then, the corresponding stability analysis is presented for kinematically redundant robot manipulators. Specifically, the proposed method is concerned with not only the stability of operational space objective but also the stability of multiple subtask objectives. The combined stability analysis of the operational space objective and the subtask objectives are obtained via Lyapunov based arguments. Experimental and simulation studies are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.
