In this thesis, we present an event orderer application that works on Turkish texts. Events are words denoting an occurrence or happenings in natural language texts. By using the features of the events in a sentence or by the helps of temporal expressions in the sentence, anchoring an event on a timeline or ordering events between other events are called event ordering. The application presented in this thesis, is one of the earliest study in this domain with Turkish and it realizes all needed sub modules for event ordering. It realizes event recognition in Turkish texts and event feature detection in Turkish texts. In addition to this, the application is realizing temporal expression recognition and temporal signal recognition tasks.

Clustering based personality prediction on Turkish Tweets
Tutaysalgır, Esen; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Department of Computer Engineering (2019)
In this thesis, we present a framework for predicting the personality traits of users using their tweets written in Turkish. The prediction model is constructed with a clustering based approach. We show how to extract linguistic features from tweet data and to adapt TF-IDF weighting and word embeddings to the Turkish tweets. Since the model is based on linguistic features, it is language specific. The prediction model uses features applicable to Turkish language and related to writing style of Turkish Twitt...
Cross-lingual information retrieval on Turkish and English texts
Boynueğri, Akif; Birtürk, Ayşe Nur; Department of Computer Engineering (2010)
In this thesis, cross-lingual information retrieval (CLIR) approaches are comparatively evaluated for Turkish and English texts. As a complementary study, knowledge-based methods for word sense disambiguation (WSD), which is one of the most important parts of the CLIR studies, are compared for Turkish words. Query translation and sense indexing based CLIR approaches are used in this study. In query translation approach, we use automatic and manual word sense disambiguation methods and Google translation ser...
Automatic disambiguation of Turkish discourse connectives based on a Turkish connective lexicon
Başıbüyük, Kezban; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Zeyrek Bozşahin, Deniz; Department of Computer Engineering (2021-8-31)
In this thesis, we developed methods for disambiguating the discourse usage and sense of connectives in a given free Turkish text. For this purpose, we firstly built a comprehensive Turkish Connective Lexicon (TCL) including all types of connectives in Turkish together with their syntactic and semantic features. This lexicon is built automatically by using the discourse relation annotations in several discourse annotated corpora developed for Turkish and follows the format of the German connective lexicon, ...
The Discourse structure of Turkish
Demirşahin, Işın; Zeyrek Bozşahin, Deniz; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2015)
This thesis investigates the structure of immediate discourse in Turkish. The first and fore- most question is how discourse is built. Are there components of discourse that constitute a predicate-argument structure, or is discourse realized by underlying non-structural ties that are merely made explicit by these components? If there is structure in discourse, what is the nature of this structure, and what is its complexity? For this purpose, we analyze the relations annotated in the Turkish Discourse Bank,...
ICT utilization of exporter enterprises: a case study of Aegean Region exporters
Taşkın, Ekin; Erdil, Erkan; Department of Science and Technology Policy Studies (2006)
In this thesis, the e-awareness of exporter enterprises is investigated in the Aegean Region. This thesis aims to propose policy recommendations for the Aegean Region decision makers to increase ICT utilization of the exporter enterprises to attain competitiveness in global markets. The research is conducted with a web-based survey that was open for two months. Survey aims to find out the enterprises̕ ICT profile, for what reasons and with what amount of importance they use ICT, their reluctance to new ICT ...
