This paper examines the basic problems of the mathematical programming models used for agricultural sector and policy analysis. Experience with traditional programming models shows that a considerable improvement in performance is possible by adequately incorporating non-linear relationships. Particular emphasis will be given to the calibration and validation problems involved in this type of model. With the help of the Turkish agricultural sector model it will be demonstrated that an empirical specification of a non-linear programming model for the agricultural sector is possible even with poor statistical data and that an operational model version can be handled on a PC.

Exact decomposition algorithms for nonlinear location and hub location problems Gündoğdu, Emine; Gürel, Sinan; Department of Industrial Engineering (2018) Developing exact solution algorithms to solve difficult optimization problems is one of the most important subjects in the operations research literature. In this dissertation, we develop Benders decomposition based exact solution algorithms (BDTAs) for handling nonlinearity in three selected nonlinear integer location/hub location problems. The first and second problem include nonlinear capacity constraints, while in the last problem, both objective function and the capacity constraints are nonlinear. In o...
Robust conic quadratic programming applied to quality improvement -a robustification of CMARS Özmen, Ayşe; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Batmaz, İnci; Department of Scientific Computing (2010) In this thesis, we study and use Conic Quadratic Programming (CQP) for purposes of operational research, especially, for quality improvement in manufacturing. In previous works, the importance and benefit of CQP in this area became already demonstrated. There, the complexity of the regression method Multivariate Adaptive Regression Spline (MARS), which especially means sensitivity with respect to noise in the data, became penalized in the form of so-called Tikhonov regularization, which became expressed and...
Hybrid wavelet-neural network models for time series data Kılıç, Deniz Kenan; Uğur, Ömür; Department of Financial Mathematics (2021-3-3) The thesis aims to combine wavelet theory with nonlinear models, particularly neural networks, to find an appropriate time series model structure. Data like financial time series are nonstationary, noisy, and chaotic. Therefore using wavelet analysis helps better modeling in the sense of both frequency and time. S&P500 (∧GSPC) and NASDAQ (∧ IXIC) data are divided into several components by using multiresolution analysis (MRA). Subsequently, each part is modeled by using a suitable neural network structure. ...
Sensor fusion, sensitivity analysis and calibration in shooter localization systems Akman, Caglar; Sonmez, Tolga; Ozugur, Ozgur; Basil, Abdil Burak; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (Elsevier BV, 2018-03-01) This paper analyses the principles and the underlying mathematical model for acoustic based shooter detection systems. These systems use the muzzle blast and acoustic shock waves to compute the shooter's location. Our detection system works on a distributed sensor network where microphone arrays are used as sensors. Detection algorithms run concurrently at each node. After determining the wave directions, the information is passed to the central node. The central node fuses data coming from each sensor with...
Multiresolution analysis of S&P500 time series KILIC, Deniz Kenan; Uğur, Ömür (2018-01-01) Time series analysis is an essential research area for those who are dealing with scientific and engineering problems. The main objective, in general, is to understand the underlying characteristics of selected time series by using the time as well as the frequency domain analysis. Then one can make a prediction for desired system to forecast ahead from the past observations. Time series modeling, frequency domain and some other descriptive statistical data analyses are the primary subjects of this study: i...
