A comparative study of evolutionary network design
Kalkan, Sinan; Şehitoğlu, Onur Tolga; Üçoluk, Göktürk; Department of Computer Engineering (2003)
In network design, a communication network is optimized for a given set of parameters like cost, reliability and delay. This study analyzes network design problem using Genetic Algorithms in detail and makes comparison of different approaches and representations. Encoding of a problem is one of the most crucial design choices in Genetic Algorithms. For network design problem, this study compares adjacency matrix representation with list of edges representation. Also, another problem is defining a fair fitne...
A comparative study of tree encodings for evolutionary computing
Saka, Esin; Üçoluk, Göktürk; Department of Computer Engineering (2005)
One of the most important factors on the success of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) about trees is the representation of them. The representation should exhibit efficiency, locality and heritability to enable effective evolutionary computing. Neville proposed three different methods for encoding labeled trees. The first one is similar with Prüfer's encoding. In 2001, it is reported that, the use of Prüfer numbers is a poor representation of spanning trees for evolutionary search, since it has low locality for...
A comparative study of anisotropic hyperelastic models of biological soft tissues
Açan, Alp Kağan; Dal, Hüsnü; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-8)
In the last two decades, there has been significant growth of interest in the mechanical behavior of biological soft tissues approached from the continuum mechanical perspective. A plenty of constitutive models have been proposed that represent the anisotropic hyperelastic behavior of biological soft tissues. Generally, invariant and fiber dispersion-based models are two main categories considered during the modeling steps. Among the anisotropic models, fiber dispersion-based constitutive models are known t...
A PROBABILISTIC ASSESSMENT OF SARS-COV-2 HOST INTERACTIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF META-COMMUNITY AND URBAN ECOLOGY
Nehri, Leman Nur; Eroğlu, Seçkin; Department of Biology (2021-6-29)
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an ongoing pandemic that was detected in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and spread all around the world. COVID-19 is caused by Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which spreads through close contact. Many studies have been conducted on the transmission, virulence, and immune response of SARS-CoV-2. The intracellular mechanism of action of the virus and various host interaction pathways are also known. In addition, there are many studies on the...
A systematic study of probabilistic aggregation strategies in swarm robotic systems
Soysal, Onur; Şahin, Erol; Department of Computer Engineering (2005)
In this study, a systematic analysis of probabilistic aggregation strategies in swarm robotic systems is presented. A generic aggregation behavior is proposed as a combination of four basic behaviors: obstacle avoidance, approach, repel, and wait. The latter three basic behaviors are combined using a three-state finite state machine with two probabilistic transitions among them. Two different metrics were used to compare performance of strategies. Through systematic experiments, how the aggregation performa...
