This study is aim to determine significant changes and trends in neuroscience literature concerning Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) from 2000 to 2017. This article encourage researchers to help identify perhaps the most influential studies and combine detailed evidence into study-considered higher education. To our knowledge and understanding, almost no study found alterations in neuroscientific literature during the last decade in Turkey. In this study, the main aim is to present a science map of "Neuroscience literature", is a growing field of research in Turkey. This study explores maps of scientific publications related to research in Neuroscience that accuracy of clustering and classification of scientific fields is enhanced by incorporation of algorithms and main bibliometric analysis. Data were extracted from the Web of Science (WoS) database and matched with PubMed database via PubMed ID. Only articles published in journals classified under the Web of science category (WC) "Neurosciences" over the period of interest were included. MeSH term, abstract fields and references of each included publication were extracted and analyzed via Bibliotools software to identify recurring terms with high relative citation scores. MeSH term maps were produced for publications over the study period to illustrate the extent of co-occurrence, and the impact of terms was evaluated based on their relative citation scores. To further describe the recent research priority or "hot spots," MeSH terms, Journals, authors with the highest relative citation scores were identified annually. We focused on two successive periods: in 2000-2007 there are 1807 publications in WoS and 1510 publications in the bibliographic coupling (BC). 1291 publications gathered in 16 top clusters and 1103 publications gathered in 47 subtop clusters. In 2008-2017: there are 3668 publications in WoS, 3312 publications in the BC network. 2924 publications gathered in 20 top clusters and 2500 publications gathered in 87 subtop clusters. In the corpus description interface, interactive tools are used to explore the nature of the two studied corpora by listing MeSH terms, references, categories, authors, journals, institutions, countries, etc. by frequency of use. In the BC interface, interactive tools are used to explore the multiple dimensions of the topics (or clusters) unveiled by our analysis. The two periods were studied independently, and although we use matching colors for topics that obviously correspond to one another from one-time period to another.

Post operative prognostic prediction of esophageal cancer cases using bayesian networks and support vector machines
Bagherzadi, Negin; Acar, Aybar Can; Department of Health Informatics (2014)
The objective of this thesis is to develop and analyze the performances of a number of classifiers in prognosis classification based on a medical history data set. Generally, data mining uses algorithms originating in different disciplines such as artificial intelligence, statistics, optimization, database theory etc., to clarify available data. In this study, Support Vector Machine and Bayesian Network methods have been used. The data analyzed are clinical pathology records of patients with esophageal canc...
Understanding Somatic Symptoms: A Mixed Method Investigation of Predictors and Experiences
Paker, Melisa Aşkım; Canel Çınarbaş, Deniz; Department of Psychology (2021-10)
The present study was a mixed design research aimed to investigate possible predictors of somatic symptoms and participants’ subjective conceptualization of those symptoms in non-patient population. For the quantitative part of the study, 326 participants aged between 19 and 65 were given Socioeconomic Status Scale, Brief Symptom Inventory, Emotional Non-Expressiveness Subscale for Type-C Behavior and IND-COL Scale. The association between age, socioeconomic status, emotional non-expressiveness, individuali...
Time-frequency analysis of visual evoked potentials for interhemispheric transfer time and proportion in callosal fibers of different diameters
Ulusoy, İlkay; Halıcı, Uğur; EROĞLU, canan; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2004-04-01)
This study is an extension of the experimental research of Nalcaci et al., who presented 16 subjects with a reversal of checkerboard pattern as stimuli in the right visual field or left visual field and recorded EEG at O1, O2, P3, and P4. They applied the chosen bandpass filters (4-8, 8-15, 15-20, 20-32 Hz) to the VEPs of subjects and obtained four different components for each VEP. The first aim of this study is to improve the previous report using some methods in time-frequency domain to estimate interhem...

Systemic analysis of available large-scale biological/biomedical data is critical for studying biological mechanisms, and developing novel and effective treatment approaches against diseases. However, different layers of the available data are produced using different technologies and scattered across individual computational resources without any explicit connections to each other, which hinders extensive and integrative multi-omics-based analysis. We aimed to address this issue by developing a new data in...
Training of ANFIS Network by Genetic Algorithm for Diagnosis of Leukemia Cancer Subtypes Using Gene Expression Profile
Arslan, Mustafa Turan; Haznedar, Bülent; Kalınlı, Adem (2017-05-12)
In this study, subtypes of Leukemia cancer has classified by using microarray gene expression profiles. An approach is proposed to train Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) network by using a population-based Genetic Algorithm (GA) to classify this cancer data. The classification success of the proposed model has compared with the successes of Backpropagation (BP)-ANFIS and Hybrid-ANFIS, which are derivative based ANFIS models. According to obtained results, GA-ANFIS model has performed ve...
