Visualizing large-scale data produced by the high throughput experiments as a biological graph leads to better understanding and analysis. This study describes a customized force-directed layout algorithm, EClerize, for biological graphs that represent pathways in which the nodes are associated with Enzyme Commission (EC) attributes. The nodes with the same EC class numbers are treated as members of the same cluster. Positions of nodes are then determined based on both the biological similarity and the connection structure. EClerize minimizes the intra-cluster distance, that is the distance between the nodes of the same EC cluster and maximizes the inter-cluster distance, that is the distance between two distinct EC clusters. EClerize is tested on a number of biological pathways and the improvement brought in is presented with respect to the original algorithm. EClerize is available as a plug-in to Cytoscape (http://apps.cytoscape.org/apps/eclerize).

Learning Graph Signal Representations with Narrowband Spectral Kernels
Kar, Osman Furkan; Turhan, Gülce; Vural, Elif (2022-01-01)
In this work, we study the problem of learning graph dictionary models from partially observed graph signals. We represent graph signals in terms of atoms generated by narrowband graph kernels. We formulate an optimization problem where the kernel parameters are learnt jointly with the signal representations under a triple regularization scheme: While the first regularization term aims to control the spectrum of the narrowband kernels, the second term encourages the reconstructed graph signals to vary smoot...
Integration of geophysical - geological data using geographic information systems
Şirinyıldız, Tunç; Toprak, Vedat; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2003)
This study attempts to integrate geophysical data with other spatial data using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The study is carried out in a part of Galatean Volcanic Province, north of Ankara. Gravity, magnetic, topographic, rock type and volcanic eruption center data are the data layers used in the study. All data layers are converted to raster format with a grid spacing of 100 m. The first step in the analysis is the pair-wise analyses of all data layers. For the geophysical data, different layers...
WIP - SKOD: A Framework for Situational Knowledge on Demand
Palacios, Servio; Solaiman, K.M.A.; Angın, Pelin; Nesen, Alina; Bhargava, Bharat; Collins, Zachary; Sipser, Aaron; Stonebraker, Michael; Macdonald, James (2019-01-01)
Extracting relevant patterns from heterogeneous data streams poses significant computational and analytical challenges. Further, identifying such patterns and pushing analogous content to interested parties according to mission needs in real-time is a difficult problem. This paper presents the design of SKOD, a novel Situational Knowledge Query Engine that continuously builds a multi-modal relational knowledge base using SQL queries; SKOD pushes dynamic content to relevant users through triggers based on mo...
Almost periodic solutions of recurrently structured impulsive neural networks
Top, Gülbahar; Akhmet, Marat; Department of Mathematics (2022-3-28)
This thesis aims to conduct detailed and precise neural networks research with impulses at nonprescribed moments in terms of periodic and almost periodic solutions. Most of the actions in nature modeled by neural networks involve repetitions. Hence periodic and almost periodic motions become crucial. So in this thesis, the existence, uniqueness, and stability of the periodic and almost periodic motion are served for the neural networks with prescribed and nonprescribed impacts. This impulsive system is a n...
