In one-way ANOVA, most of the pairwise multiple comparison procedures depend on normality assumption of errors. In practice, errors have non-normal distributions so frequently. Therefore, it is very important to develop robust estimators of location and the associated variance under non-normality. In this paper, we consider the estimation of one-way ANOVA model parameters to make pairwise multiple comparisons under short-tailed symmetric (STS) distribution. The classical least squares method is neither efficient nor robust and maximum likelihood estimation technique is problematic in this situation. Modified maximum likelihood (MML) estimation technique gives the opportunity to estimate model parameters in closed forms under non-normal distributions. Hence, the use of MML estimators in the test statistic is proposed for pairwise multiple comparisons under STS distribution. The efficiency and power comparisons of the test statistic based on sample mean, trimmed mean, wave and MML estimators are given and the robustness of the test obtained using these estimators under plausible alternatives and inlier model are examined. It is demonstrated that the test statistic based on MML estimators is efficient and robust and the corresponding test is more powerful and having smallest Type I error.

Robust semi-supervised clustering with polyhedral and circular uncertainty DİNLER, DERYA; Tural, Mustafa Kemal (Elsevier BV, 2017-11-22) We consider a semi-supervised clustering problem where the locations of the data objects are subject to uncertainty. Each uncertainty set is assumed to be either a closed convex bounded polyhedron or a closed disk. The final clustering is expected to be in accordance with a given number of instance level constraints. The objective function considered minimizes the total of the sum of the violation costs of the unsatisfied instance level constraints and a weighted sum of squared maximum Euclidean distances b...

Binary regression with stochastic covariates Oral, E. (2006-01-01) In binary regression the risk factor X has been treated in the literature as a non-stochastic variable. In most situations, however, X is stochastic. We present solutions applicable to such situations. We show that our solutions are more precise than those obtained by treating X as non-stochastic when, in fact, it is stochastic.
Optimal redundancy resolution for kinematically redundant parallel manipulators Tunç, Tansel Sıtkı; Özgören, Mustafa Kemal; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014) In this study, the redundancy resolution of kinematically redundant parallel manipulators has been investigated as an optimization problem. The emerging optimization problem has been solved globally using a hybrid genetic algorithm. This algorithm has been applied as an example to a planar parallel manipulator which has four degrees of freedom. It has been assumed that the manipulator is used so that only the tip point of its end-effector is controlled. Therefore, the rotation angle of the end effector has ...
Expectation propagation for state estimation with discrete-valued hidden random variables Sarıtaş, Elif; Orguner, Umut; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2023-2-21) In this thesis, the expectation propagation (EP) approach of Minka is considered for the estimation problems in dynamical systems with discrete hidden random variables where optimal posteriors are usually intractable. The concept of context adjustment is introduced to avoid/alleviate indefinite covariance problems encountered in standard EP implementations in a systematic way. Additionally, the moment projection (Mprojection) problem involving pseudo-Gaussian likelihoods as factors is solved to be used in t...
