The use of the Middle East Technical University Neural Network and Cascade Modeling (METU-NN-C) technique in system identification to forecast complex nonlinear processes has been examined. Special cascade models based on Hammerstein system modeling have been developed. The total electron content (TEC) data evaluated from GPS measurements are vital in telecommunications and satellite navigation systems. Using the model, forecast of the TEC data in 10 minute intervals 1 hour ahead, during disturbed conditions have been made. In performance analysis an operation has been performed on a new validation data set by producing the forecast values. Forecast of GPS-TEC values have been achieved with high sensitivity and accuracy before, during and after the disturbed conditions. The performance results of the cascade modeling of the near Earth space process have been discussed in terms of system identification.

Neural network based online estimation of maneuvering steady states and control limits
Gürsoy, Gönenç; Yavrucuk, İlkay; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2010)
This thesis concerns the design and development of neural network based predictive algorithms to predict approaching aircraft limits. Therefore, approximate dynamics of flight envelope parameters such as angle of attack and load factor are constructed using neural network augmented dynamic models. Then, constructed models are used to predict steady state responses. By inverting the models and solving for critical controls at the known envelope limits, critical control inputs are calculated as well. The perf...
Representing temporal knowledge in connectionist expert systems
Alpaslan, Ferda Nur (1996-09-27)
This paper introduces a new temporal neural networks model which can be used in connectionist expert systems. Also, a Variation of backpropagation algorithm, called the temporal feedforward backpropagation algorithm is introduced as a method for training the neural network. The algorithm was tested using training examples extracted from a medical expert system. A series of experiments were carried out using the temporal model and the temporal backpropagation algorithm. The experiments indicated that the alg...
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...
Numerical Simulation and Formulation of Wave Run-Up on Dam Face due to Ground Oscillations Using Major Earthquake Acceleration Records
DEMİREL, ENDER; Aydın, İsmail (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2016-06-01)
A previously developed computational model is used for wave run-up analysis in a generic two-dimensional reservoir subjected to major earthquake acceleration records. The model is based on numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations and pressure equation considering compressibility effects. An existing model has been revised by the volume of fluid (VOF) method with piecewise linear interface calculation (PLIC) to be able to compute violent wave motion in the reservoir and to predict the maximum wave r...

In this thesis, optical system design, integration and testing of a compact LIDAR system with 270 degree field-of-view that based on time of flight principle is developed by Rekrom Optoelectronics. This system can identify objects and measure distances up to 100 m away. LIDAR has become a much needed and used technology in various fields. The most important of these areas are robotic systems, autonomous vehicles and unmanned aerial, land and sea platforms navigation and environmental awareness. The main r...
