In this study, we introduce a new image classification technique using decision fusion. The proposed technique, called Meta-Fuzzified Yield Value.(Meta-FYV), is based on two-layer Stacked Generalization (SG) architecture [1]. At the base-layer, the system, receives a set of feature vectors of various dimensions and dynamical ranges and outputs hypotheses through fuzzy transformations. Then, the hypotheses created by the base layer transformations are concatenated for building a regression equation at meta-layer.

A sequential classification algorithm for autoregressive processes
Otlu, Güneş; Candan, Çağatay; Çiloğlu, Tolga; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
This study aims to present a sequential method for the classification of the autoregressive processes. Different from the conventional detectors having fixed sample size, the method uses Wald’s sequential probability ratio test and has a variable sample size. It is shown that the suggested method produces the classification decisions much earlier than fixed sample size alternative on the average. The proposed method is extended to the case when processes have unknown variance. The effects of the unknown pro...
A New Multi-ring SRR Type Metamaterial Design with Multiple Magnetic Resonances
Turkmen, O.; Ekmekci, E.; Sayan, Gönül (2011-03-23)
In this study, we propose a new SRR unit cell design for multi-band metamaterial applications. The suggested unit cell structure consists of N number of concentric split rings to obtain magnetic resonances at N distinct frequencies. The value of each distinct resonance frequency can be adjusted by changing design parameters such as metal widths and gap distances for each ring as well as ring-to-ring separations. The suggested multi-band structure is simulated using CST Microwave Studio. Effective medium par...

Güler, Hasan Gökhan; Liu, Xiaofeng; Jensen, Bjarne; Tomaselli, Pietro D; Baykal, Cüneyt; Arıkawa, Taro; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet (null; 2018-12-14)
In this study, we present and validate a new numerical solver in OpenFOAM®-v1706 called "ibmPorFoam" that is developed modifying IHFOAM (Higuera et al., 2014) with Immersed Boundary Method. IHFOAM is previously developed modifying interFoam solver of OpenFOAM® to solve flow properties in porous media. IHFOAM solves Volume Averaged Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes Equations, captures the free surface using Volume of Fluid method, and is capable of generating and absorbing waves. Immersed boundary method imple...
A cell formation algorithm: Hypergraph approximation - Cut tree
Kandiller, L (1998-09-16)
A new cell formation technique is presented and analyzed in this paper. The cell formation problem is defined using the hypergraph representation of the manufacturing systems. The proposed method approximates the hypergraph model by graphs so that the cuts are less affected by the approximation. Consequently, a Gomory-Hu cut tree of the graph approximation is obtained. The minimum cuts between all pairs of vertices are calculated easily by means of this tree, and a partition tree is produced. Our cell forma...
An Information theoretic representation of brain connectivity for cognitive state classification using functional magnetic resonance imaging
Önal, Itır; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay; Department of Computer Engineering (2013)
In this study, a new method for analyzing and representing the discriminative information, distributed in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data, is proposed. For this purpose, a local mesh with varying size is formed around each voxel, called the seed voxel. The relationships among each seed voxel and its neighbors are estimated using a linear regression equation by minimizing the expectation of the squared error. This squared error coming from linear regression is used to calculate various info...
