FUNCTION DISCRIMINATION VIA QUANTUM SIGNALPROCESSING WITHANULL INPUT
Olgun, Halil İbrahim; Turgut, Sadi; Department of Physics (2026-9-4)
This thesis applies Quantum Signal Processing (QSP) to solve a generalized Deutsch Jozsa promise problem: distinguishing whether a Boolean function has r1 or r2 so lutions in a search space of size N. Standard QSP suffers ...
Cross-Lingual Humor Detection, Rating, and Classification Using Transformer Models: A Comparative Study Across Turkish, English, and Spanish Short Texts
Tek, Deniz Güvenç; Başbuğ Erkan, Berna Burçak; Department of Statistics (2026-9-4)
Humor is figurative in nature and deeply rooted in the social and cultural context of language. Short humorous social media texts present an additional challenge for natural language processing (NLP) to interpret, as they ...
