Adapting a Robust Model into Hybrid Implementations of Machine Learning Algorithms and Statistical Methods for Longitudinal Data
Erduran, İbrahim Hakkı; Gökalp Yavuz, Fulya; Ebegil, Meral; Department of Statistics (2021-9)
Data structures in which the same characteristics are measured repeatedly at different time points are counted among the longitudinal data types. These datasets require the use of advanced modeling techniques because of the dependency structure amongst replicates. Linear mixed models (LMM) is an advanced regression method used in the analysis of such data sets. Although the LMM method provides many flexibility and advantages, the model setup is based on a number of assumptions that are challenging to provid...
Adapting Functional Mockup Units for HLA-compliant Distributed Simulation
YILMAZ, Faruk; DURAK, Umut; TAYLAN, Koray; Oğuztüzün, Mehmet Halit S. (2014-03-12)
Conceptual design of systems requires aggregate level simulations of the designed system in its operational setting. By this way; performance of the system and its interactions with the other entities in its environment can be evaluated. The complex nature of these simulations often requires distributed execution. IEEE 1516 High Level Architecture (HLA) is a widely accepted standard architecture for distributed aggregate level simulations. Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) is a recent standardization effor...
Improving the performance of simulated annealing in structural optimization
Hasançebi, Oğuzhan; Saka, Mehmet Polat (2010-03-01)
This study aims at improving the performance of simulated annealing (SA) search technique in real-size structural optimization applications with practical design considerations. It is noted that a standard SA algorithm usually fails to produce acceptable solutions to such problems associated with its poor convergence characteristics and incongruity with theoretical considerations. In the paper novel approaches are developed and incorporated into the standard SA algorithm to eliminate the observed drawbacks ...
Using feature models for reusability in agile methods
Jedyk, Marcin; Doğru, Ali Hikmet; Department of Computer Engineering (2011)
The approach proposed in this thesis contributes to implementing source code reuse and re-engineering techniques for agile software development. This work includes an introduction to feature models and some of the Feature Oriented Software Development (FOSD) practices to achieve a lightweight way of retrieving source code. A Feature model created during the course of following FOSD practices serves as an additional layer of documentation which represents the problem space for the developed application. This...
Using System Dynamics for Strategic Performance Management in Construction
Yildiz, Acelya Ecem; Dikmen Toker, İrem; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2020-03-01)
Balanced scorecard (BSC) and strategy maps (SMs) are among the most popular strategic performance management methods that have been proposed in the literature to define, analyze, and monitor performance and strategies. Despite their popularity, BSC and SMs have been criticized for their inability to simulate dynamic interrelations between performance measures and strategies over time. In this paper, a dynamic SM was developed by using system dynamics (SD) modeling based on the BSC framework. This paper desc...
