In this thesis work, a detailed analysis of biometric technologies has been done and a new palmprint recognition algorithm has been implemented. The proposed algorithm is based on 2-D Gabor filters. The developed algorithm is first tested on The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Palmprint Database in terms of accuracy, speed and template size. Then a scanner is integrated into the developed algorithm in order to acquire palm images; in this way an online palmprint recognition system has been developed. Then a small palmprint database is formed via this system in Middle East Technical University. Results on this new database have also shown the success of the developed algorithm.

Parameter extraction and image enhancement for catadioptric omnidirectional cameras Baştanlar, Yalın; Çetin, Yasemin; Department of Information Systems (2005) In this thesis, catadioptric omnidirectional imaging systems are analyzed in detail. Omnidirectional image (ODI) formation characteristics of different camera-mirror configurations are examined and geometrical relations for panoramic and perspective image generation with common mirror types are summarized. A method is developed to determine the unknown parameters of a hyperboloidal-mirrored system using the world coordinates of a set of points and their corresponding image points on the ODI. A linear relati...
Digital modulation recognition Erdem, Erem; Tanık, Yalçın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009) In this thesis work, automatic recognition algorithms for digital modulated signals are surveyed. Feature extraction and classification algorithm stages are the main parts of a modulation recognition system. Performance of the modulation recognition system mainly depends on the prior knowledge of some of the signal parameters, selection of the key features and classification algorithm selection. Unfortunately, most of the features require some of the signal parameters such as carrier frequency, pulse shape,...
Multipath Characteristics of Frequency Diverse Arrays Over a Ground Plane Cetintepe, Cagri; Demir, Şimşek (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014-07-01) This paper presents a theoretical framework for an analytical investigation of multipath characteristics of frequency diverse arrays (FDAs), a task which is attempted for the first time in the open literature. In particular, transmitted field expressions are formulated for an FDA over a perfectly conducting ground plane first in a general analytical form, and these expressions are later simplified under reasonable assumptions. Developed formulation is then applied to a uniform, linear, continuous-wave opera...
Dynamic system modeling and state estimation for speech signal Özbek, İbrahim Yücel; Demirekler, Mübeccel; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) This thesis presents an all-inclusive framework on how the current formant tracking and audio (and/or visual)-to-articulatory inversion algorithms can be improved. The possible improvements are summarized as follows: The first part of the thesis investigates the problem of the formant frequency estimation when the number of formants to be estimated fixed or variable respectively. The fixed number of formant tracking method is based on the assumption that the number of formant frequencies is fixed along the ...
Detection of airport runways in optical satellite images Zöngür, Uğur; Ulusoy, İlkay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009) Advances in hardware and pattern recognition techniques, along with the widespread utilization of remote sensing satellites, have urged the development of automatic target detection systems. Automatic detection of airports is particularly essential, due to the strategic importance of these targets. In this thesis, a detection method is proposed for airport runways, which is the most distinguishing element of an airport. This method, which operates on large optical satellite images, is composed of a segmenta...
