    Experimental Investigation of Refractive Index Measurement of Common Solvents and Aqueous Solutions in the Infrared Wavelengths
    (2018) Yüksel, K.; İde, C
    We proposed and experimentally demonstrated a fast and simple technique to measure refractive index of liquids. A commercial Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) was implemented for interrogating sensor tips from a remote location. The system uses Fresnel reflected light from standard single mode fiber tips as sensing points without requiring any chemical coating, delicate fiber components, and/or sophisticated architecture at the sensor head. We reported new measurements of refractive indices of common solvents and solutions at both 1550 nm and 1625 nm. The precision of the proposed measurement system was found to be in the order of 10-4. The experimental results have been validated by the way of theoretical calculations.

    Detection Scheme for Pnc-Based Cell-Free Mimo Systems
    (IEEE, 2023) Cumali, Irem; Ozbek, Berna; Kurt, Gunes Karabulut
    Cell-free multiple-input multiple-output (cell-free MIMO) is a promising concept to overcome inter-cell interference and avoid non-uniform data rates among users by combining the best features of ultra-dense networks and MIMO. Hence, cell-free MIMO can fulfill the increasing demand on data rate with uniformly good coverage for the sixth-generation (6G) wireless communications. In addition to that, physical-layer network coding (PNC) reduces the transmission delay since it requires only two time slots instead of four time slots to exchange information between two users. In this paper, we propose a novel scheme called PNC-based cell-free MIMO to improve reliability further while reducing the transmission delay. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme regarding the bit error rate in different system configurations. The proposed PNC-based cell-free MIMO achieves significantly lower error probability than the conventional cell-free MIMO.

    Using Chemosensory-Induced Eeg Signals To Identify Patients With <i>de Novo</I> Parkinson's Disease
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Olcay, Orkan; Onay, Fatih; Ozturk, Guliz Akin; Oniz, Adile; Ozgoren, Murat; Hummel, Thomas; Guducu, Cagdas
    Objective: Parkinson's disease (PD) patients generally exhibit an olfactory loss. Hence, psychophysical or electrophysiological tests are used for diagnosis. However, these tests are susceptible to the subjects' behavioral response bias and require advanced techniques for an accurate analysis. Proposed Approach: Using well-known feature extraction methods, we characterized chemosensory-induced EEG responses of the participants to classify whether they have PD. The classification was performed for different time intervals after chemosensory stimulation to see which temporal segment better separates healthy controls and subjects with de novo PD. Results: The performances show that entropy and connectivity features discriminate effectively PD and HC participants when olfactory-induced EEG signals were used. For these methods, discrimination is over 80% for segments 100-700 and 200-800 milliseconds after stimulus onset. Comparison with Existing Methods: We compared the performance of our framework with linear predictive coding, bispectrum, wavelet entropy-based methods, and TDI score-based classification. While the entropy- and connectivity-based methods elicited the highest classification performances for olfactory stimuli, the linear predictive coding-based method elicited slightly higher performance than our framework when the trigeminal stimuli were used. Conclusion: This is one of the first studies that use chemosensory-induced EEG signals along with different feature extraction methods to classify healthy subjects and subjects with de novo PD. Our results show that entropy and functional connectivity methods unravel the chemosensory-induced neural dynamics encapsulating critical information about the subjects' olfactory performance. Furthermore, time- and frequency-resolved feature analysis is beneficial for capturing disease-affected neural patterns.

    Mitigation of Electron Cloud Effects in the FCC-EE Collider
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Yaman, F.; Iadarola, G.; Kersevan, R.; Oğur, S.; Ohmi, K.; Zimmermann, F.; Zobov, M.
    Electron clouds forming inside the beam vacuum chamber due to photoemission and secondary emission may limit the accelerator performance. Specifically, the electron clouds can blow up the vertical emittance of a positron beam, through a head-tail-type single-bunch instability, if the central electron density exceeds a certain threshold value, that can be estimated analytically. Using the codes PyECLOUD and VSim, we carried out detailed simulations of the electron-cloud build up for the main arcs and the damping ring of the FCC-ee collider, in order to identify the effective photoemission rate and secondary emission yield required for achieving and maintaining the design emittance. To this end, we present the simulated electron density at the centre of the beam pipe for various bunch spacings, secondary emission yields, and photoemission parameters, in the damping ring and in the arcs of the collider positron ring. To gain further insight into the underlying dynamics, the obtained spatial and energy distributions of the cloud electrons are illustrated as a function of time. In addition, we compare results obtained for two different secondary emission models (“Furman–Pivi” and “ECLOUD”), thereby indicating the uncertainty inherent in this type of study, without any prototype vacuum chambers yet available. We also point out a few situations where the two secondary-emission models yield similar density values. Finally, based on our simulation results for two different design variants, we conclude that the new parameter baseline of the FCC-ee will facilitate electron-cloud mitigation. © 2022, The Author(s).

    In this work, artificial intelligence reinterpretation and/or addition of drum parts for musical pieces supplied in Musical Instruments Digital Interface (MIDI) format, have been carried out. To achieve this, Sequence-to-Sequence learning method and Encoder-Decoder Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) artificial neural network model have been used. In order to improve training of this neural network, teacher forcing method was utilized. In the generation of new drum parts, the quality and the originality of the samples were improved by using temperature sampling. Our proposed method produces high quality drum accompaniments with adjustable complexity.

    Üç Tümyönlü Kamera Kullanarak Stereoskopik. Video Karelerinin Gerçek Zamanlı Yapımı
    (IEEE, 2022) Cali, Mehmet; Gomustekin, Sevket
    There are many studies about acquisition of monoscopic and stereoscopic panorama in the literature. Since obtaining motion parallax accurately without having distortions is a very challenging problem, especially 360-degree stereoscopic image and video capturing has become a prevalent research topic. However, studies in this topic have focused on costly systems with many cameras and high processing power demand. In this study, which presents an efficient solution in terms of processing power and cost, stereoscopic frames are processed in real time using three consumer grade 360-degree cameras whose outputs are sampled according to view orientation. Besides, a method is developed to eliminate the distortions around the borders of the field of view with the help of blending with selected auxiliary camera frames.

    Cbr ve Vbr Kodlanmış Ölçeklenir Videolar ile Uyarlanabilir İletimin Karşılaştırmalı Analizi
    (IEEE, 2021) Cali, Mehmet; Ozbek, Nukhet
    Having an influence on the effective utilization of network resources, optimum video streaming in various network conditions have a significant role. Therefore, optimization studies on DASH receives considereable attention from the researchers. Although most of these studies focus on developing adaptation algorithm in the client side, the effect of decisions made during video encoding on the perceived quality cannot be underestimated. In this study, the effect of encoding mode selection on the perceived quality for scalable video coding is investigated. Streaming of videos which are encoded in CBR and VBR modes are tested with extensive network conditions by implementing three different adaptation algorithm. It is observed that VBR encoding has superior performance with a considerable margin in terms of both video stall duration and video quality switching frequency.

    A Robust Tracking Controller for Dynamically Positioned Surface Vessels With Added Mass
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014) Bidikli, B.; Tatlicioglu, E.; Zergeroglu, E.
    This work concentrates on tracking control of dynamically positioned surface vessels with asymmetric added mass terms affecting the system model at the acceleration level. Specifically, we propose a novel continuous robust controller for surface vessels that, in addition to asymmetric added mass in its inertia matrix, contains unstructured uncertainties in all its system matrices. The proposed controller compensates the overall system uncertainties and ensures asymptotic tracking, while requiring only the knowledge of the sign of the leading principle minors of the input gain matrix. Lyapunov based approaches are applied in order to prove the stability of the closed-loop system and asymptotic convergence of the tracking error signal. © 2014 IEEE.
