A generic missile warner decision algorithm for airborne platforms with an emphasis on multiple classifier systems is proposed within the scope of this thesis. For developing the algorithm, simulation data are utilized. The simulation data are created in order to cover a wide range of real-life scenarios and for this purpose a scenario creation methodology is proposed. The scenarios are simulated by a generic missile warner simulator and tracked object data for each scenario are produced. Various feature extraction techniques are applied to the output data of the scenarios and feature sets are generated. Feature sets are examined by using various statistical methods. The performance of selected multiple classifier systems are evaluated for all feature sets and experimental results are presented.

Feature set evaluation for a generic missile detection system
Avan, K. Selçuk; Tuncer, Temel Engin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
Missile Detection System (MDS) is one of the main components of a self-protection system developed against the threat of guided missiles for airborne platforms. The requirements such as time critical operation and high accuracy in classification performance make the ‘Pattern Recognition’ problem of an MDS a hard task. Problem can be defined in two main parts such as ‘Feature Set Evaluation’ (FSE) and ‘Classifier’ designs. The main goal of feature set evaluation is to employ a dimensionality reduction proces...
A new feedback-based contention avoidance algorithm for optical burst switching networks
Toku, Hadi Alper; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008)
In this thesis, a feedback-based contention avoidance technique based on weighted Dijkstra algorithm is proposed to address the contention avoidance problem for Optical Burst Switching networks. Optical Burst Switching (OBS) has been proposed as a promising technique to support high-bandwidth, bursty data traffic in the next-generation optical Internet. Nevertheless, there are still some challenging issues that need to be solved to achieve an effective implementation of OBS. Contention problem occurs when t...
A fluid dynamics framework for control of mobile robot networks
Paç, Muhammed Raşid; Erkmen, Aydan Müşerref; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
This thesis proposes a framework for controlling mobile robot networks based on a fluid dynamics paradigm. The approach is inspired by natural behaviors of fluids demonstrating desirable characteristics for collective robots. The underlying mathematical formalism is developed through establishing analogies between fluid bodies and multi-robot systems such that robots are modeled as fluid elements that constitute a fluid body. The governing equations of fluid dynamics are adapted to multi-robot systems and a...
Video shot boundary detection by graph theoretic approaches
Aşan, Emrah; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008)
This thesis aims comparative analysis of the state of the art shot boundary detection algorithms. The major methods that have been used for shot boundary detection such as pixel intensity based, histogram-based, edge-based, and motion vectors based, are implemented and analyzed. A recent method which utilizes “graph partition model” together with the support vector machine classifier as a shot boundary detection algorithm is also implemented and analyzed. Moreover, a novel graph theoretic concept, “dominant...
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...
