The article presents data about Turkish gapping and argument deletion in coordination, in particular about their serialization patterns. It offers some suggestions for research on the category of the verb. The patterns are classified along the dimension of referential versus non-referential objects. It appears that these patterns coincide with constituency of SO and OS, at least in surface constituency, because coordination which underlies gapping and argument deletion is a good testing ground for this aspect of grammar. The results show the parallelism effect in backward gapping, and lack of it in the forward variety. Apart from the expected outcome of basicness of SOV for Turkish, it seems that verb-medial orders need further studies. Their involvement in forward gapping is significant but not conclusive. Unlike strict word-order SVO languages, paralellism is not required. It is known that gapping and argument deletion patterns reveal rich information about the verb. The reason for this might be that the verb must be involved in them even when it is not the target of deletion. The most revealing source for verb directionality appears to be the asymmetries arising from differential behavior in

Scramjet Combustor Flow Analysis Using Coupled Navier-Stokes and Finite Rate Chemical Equations
Rouzbar, Ramin; Eyi, Sinan (2016-07-13)
An element-index is a crucial mechanism for supporting content-only (CO) queries over XML collections. A full element-index that indexes each element along with the content of its descendants involves a high redundancy and reduces query processing efficiency. A direct index, on the other hand, only indexes the content that is directly under each element and disregards the descendants. This results in a smaller index, but possibly in return to some reduction in system effectiveness. In this paper, we propose...
Improvement of corpus-based semantic word similarity using vector space model
Esin, Yunus Emre; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Department of Computer Engineering (2009)
This study presents a new approach for finding semantically similar words from corpora using window based context methods. Previous studies mainly concentrate on either finding new combination of distance-weight measurement methods or proposing new context methods. The main di fference of this new approach is that this study reprocesses the outputs of the existing methods to update the representation of related word vectors used for measuring semantic distance between words, to improve the results further. ...
Clustering based personality prediction on Turkish Tweets
Tutaysalgır, Esen; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Department of Computer Engineering (2019)
In this thesis, we present a framework for predicting the personality traits of users using their tweets written in Turkish. The prediction model is constructed with a clustering based approach. We show how to extract linguistic features from tweet data and to adapt TF-IDF weighting and word embeddings to the Turkish tweets. Since the model is based on linguistic features, it is language specific. The prediction model uses features applicable to Turkish language and related to writing style of Turkish Twitt...
Object-based image labeling through learning by example and multi-level segmentation
Xu, Y; Duygulu, P; Saber, E; Tekalp, AM; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (Elsevier BV, 2003-06-01)
We propose a method for automatic extraction and labeling of semantically meaningful image objects using "learning by example" and threshold-free multi-level image segmentation. The proposed method scans through images, each of which is pre-segmented into a hierarchical uniformity tree, to seek and label objects that are similar to an example object presented by the user. By representing images with stacks of multi-level segmentation maps, objects can be extracted in the segmentation map level with adequate...
Privacy preserving database external layer construction algorithm via secure decomposition for attribute-based security policies
Turan, Uğur; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Kantarcıoğlu, Murat; Department of Computer Engineering (2018)
Relational DBMS’scontinue to dominate th emarket an dinference problem on external schema has preserved its importance in terms of data privacy. Especially for the last 10 years, external schema construction for application-specific database usage has increased its independency from the conceptual schema, as the definitions and implementations of views and procedures have been optimized. After defining all mathematical background, this work offers an optimized decomposition strategy for the external schema, wh...
