Satellite data, together with spatial technologies, have a vital importance in earth sciences to continuously monitor natural and physical processes. However, images taken by earth-observing satellites are often associated with uncertainties due to atmospheric effects (i.e., absorption and scattering by atmospheric gases and aerosols). In this paper, a more adaptable approach for the removal of atmospheric effects from satellite data is introduced within an operational research perspective by utilizing nonparametric regression splines. Regional atmospheric correction models via multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) are applied on a set of satellite images for Alps and Turkey to calculate surface reflectance values. A classical radiative transfer based atmospheric correction method is likewise employed on the same data set. The results are compared in terms of relative differences with respect to surface reflectance data. MARS provides significant improvement in the order of 40 and 37 % for Alps and Turkey, respectively.

An application of the minimal spanning tree approach to the cluster stability problem Volkovich, Z.; Barzily, Z.; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Toledano-Kitai, D.; Avros, R. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2012-03-01) Among the areas of data and text mining which are employed today in OR, science, economy and technology, clustering theory serves as a preprocessing step in the data analyzing. An important component of clustering theory is determination of the true number of clusters. This problem has not been satisfactorily solved. In our paper, this problem is addressed by the cluster stability approach. For several possible numbers of clusters, we estimate the stability of the partitions obtained from clustering of samp...
Computation and analysis of spectra of large undirected networks Erdem, Özge; Karasözen, Bülent; Jost, Jürgen; Department of Scientific Computing (2010) Many interacting complex systems in biology, in physics, in technology and social systems, can be represented in a form of large networks. These large networks are mathematically represented by graphs. A graph is represented usually by the adjacency or the Laplacian matrix. Important features of the underlying structure and dynamics of them can be extracted from the analysis of the spectrum of the graphs. Spectral analysis of the so called normalized Laplacian of large networks became popular in the recent ...
AN APPLICATION OF CRYPTO CLOUD COMPUTING IN SOCIAL NETWORKS BY COOPERATIVE GAME THEORY Ergun, Serap; KIRLAR, Barış Bülent; ALPARSLAN GÖK, Sırma Zeynep; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (American Institute of Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), 2020-07-01) In this paper, we mathematically associate Crypto Cloud Computing, that has become an emerging research area, with Cooperative Game Theory in the presence of uncertainty. In the sequel, we retrieve data from the database of Amazon Web Service. The joint view upon Crypto Cloud Computing, Cooperative Game Theory and Uncertainty management is a novel approach. For this purpose, we construct a cooperative interval game model and apply this model to Social Networks. Then, we suggest some interval solutions relat...
INTEGRATED INSTANCE-BASED AND KERNEL METHODS FOR POWER QUALITY KNOWLEDGE MODELING Guder, Mennan; Salor, Ozgul; Cadirci, Isik (2010-10-28) In this paper, an integrated knowledge discovery strategy for high dimensional spatial power quality event data is proposed. Real time, distributed measuring of the electricity transmission system parameters provides huge number of time series power quality events. The proposed method aims to construct characteristic event distribution and interaction models for individual power quality sensors and the whole electricity transmission system by considering feasibility, time and accuracy concerns. In order to ...
On the performance, availability and energy consumption modelling of clustered IoT systems Ever, Enver; Shah, Purav; Mostarda, Leonardo; Omondi, Fredrick; Gemikonakli, Orhan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-12-01) Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) form a large part of the ecosystem of the Internet of Things (IoT), hence they have numerous application domains with varying performance and availability requirements. Limited resources that include processing capability, queue capacity, and available energy in addition to frequent node and link failures degrade the performance and availability of these networks. In an attempt to efficiently utilise the limited resources and to maintain the reliable network with efficient da...
