Abstract—The construction of biological networks has certain challenges due to its high dimension, sparse structure and very limited number of observations. Thus, specific modeling approaches have been suggested to deal with these problems such as Gaussian graphical model, loop-based multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) with/without interaction effects and Gaussian copula graphical model. From previous analyses via these methods, it has been shown that they can successfully estimate the systems with comparative accuracies. Hereby, in this study, as the novelty we use all these complex mathematical models in inference of gynecological cancer networks whose target genes are gathered from biological literature. The observations for these target genes are collected from the ArrayExpress database with other associated risk factors such as stage of the cancers which are denoted by categorical variables. Then, under different dimensions of systems, sample sizes and measurement types, we compare the performance of all models with the criteria of accuracy and F-measure. From the results, we observe that the suggested models can successfully estimate the real cancer systems under different conditions and are promising approaches to describe the complexity in biological networks.

Estimation of earthquake hazard based on extremes of local integral random functions Akkaya, Ayşen; Yücemen, Mehmet Semih (2000-09-01) A random field model is developed for the occurrence of earthquakes in the space-time domain based on the theory of random functions. The seismic hazard posed by earthquakes is estimated by applying the level crossing theory to local integral random functions. Analysis of the correlation structure of the strain energy random field associated with the proposed model is described by utilizing the concepts of variance function and scale of fluctuation. The earthquake occurrence rates obtained in the study diff...
Investigation of seismic isolation efficiency for building structures Özdemir, Seda; Yakut, Ahmet; Ay, Bekir Özer; Department of Earthquake Studies (2016) The main goal of this study is to assess the efﬁcacy of seismic isolation for building type of structures with different structural systems, namely, dual systems and moment frame systems having also different number of ﬂoors. Speciﬁc to this study, the main parameters employed for efﬁcacy assessment will be the interstorey drift ratio and ﬂoor acceleration since both structural and non-structural damage to be occured in a system are directly related to these two parameters. To assess the variations in inter...
Assessment of nonlinear static (pushover) analysis procedures using field experience Dilsiz, Abdullah; Gülkan, Polat; Yakut, Ahmet; Department of Civil Engineering (2013) Recently, many nonlinear analysis procedures have been proposed for earthquake response determination of the structures. Although, the nonlinear response history analysis (NRHA) is accepted as the most accurate source of information for nonlinear seismic response, nonlinear static procedures (NSP) may also provide reasonable estimates of seismic demand and inelastic behavior. However, all proposed NSPs have limitations, due to the certain approximations and simplifications, such as invariable load pattern a...
Assessment of uncertainties in bed load rate and water surface profile computations Genç, Gizem; Yanmaz, Ali Melih; Department of Civil Engineering (2023-1-12) Many processes in water resources engineering are disposed to uncertainty due to the inherent variation of many inputs and parameters in time and place. This study mainly consists of two parts. In the first part, probabilistic variations of bed load rates are examined using Meyer-Peter Müller and Einstein-Brown approaches under the effect of different bed slopes, bed materials, and flow rates in the Miliç Basin. The results of the first part offer an insight into the probabilistic nature of bed resistance. ...
