Detecting differential item functioning across age groups of children on the Turkish receptive language test
Erol Korkmaz, Habibe Tuğba; Stark, Stephan; Kazak Berument, Sibel; Güven, Ayşe Gül (2012-01-01)
This study investigated the use of differential item functioning (DIF) methods for examining the measurement invariance of items in the Turkish Receptive Language Test for children. Two groups of children differing in age were compared. DIF analyses were conducted using Lord’s chi-square test, the likelihood ratio test, and the differential functioning of items and tests (DFIT) method. Overall, 5 out of 38 items were consistently identified as having DIF by the ...
DETECTING ANDROID OBFUSCATION METHODS WITH LSTM
Ulukapi, Bulut; Tezcan, Cihangir; Gürkan Balıkçıoğlu, Pınar; Department of Cybersecurity (2022-6-17)
In software development, obfuscation means intentionally designing the source code to make it more difficult to understand by humans, thus making the analysis and reverse engineering challenging to accomplish. Obfuscation methods modify the source code syntactically while maintaining its original functionality. Obfuscation is also integrated into the Android development environment, and it has been used widely by legitimate software developers and malware authors. The app developers employ obfuscation metho...
Detecting High-Functioning Autism in Adults Using Eye Tracking and Machine Learning
Yaneva, Victoria; Le An Ha, Le An Ha; Eraslan, Sukru; Yesilada, Yeliz; Mitkov, Ruslan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-06-01)
The purpose of this study is to test whether visual processing differences between adults with and without high-functioning autism captured through eye tracking can be used to detect autism. We record the eye movements of adult participants with and without autism while they look for information within web pages. We then use the recorded eye-tracking data to train machine learning classifiers to detect the condition. The data was collected as part of two separate studies involving a total of 71 unique parti...
Detecting g-protein coupled receptor interactions using enhanced green fluorescent protein reassembly
Kumaş, Gözde; Son, Çağdaş Devrim; Yanık, Tülin; Department of Biotechnology (2012)
The largest class of cell surface receptors in mammalian genomes is the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) which are activated by a wide range of extracellular responses such as hormones, pheromones, odorants, and neurotransmitters. Drugs which have therapeutic effects on a wide range of diseases are act on GPCRs. In contrast to traditional idea, it is recently getting accepted that G-protein coupled receptors can form homo- and hetero-dimers and this interaction could have important role on...
Testing natural selection on polygenic trait-associated alleles in anatolia using neolithic and present-day human genomes
Fer, Evrim; Somel, Mehmet; Department of Bioinformatics (2019)
The Neolithic transition, which started approximately 10,000 year ago in west Eurasia and introduced sedentary life style and food production, led to major shifts in the human diet. Previous studies have reported strong selection signals on genes related to processing of plant-based diets (Buckley et al., 2017; Harris et al., 2019) or the consumption of dairy products (Schlebusch et al., 2013). With the advent of archeogenomics studies, genetic signatures of such adaptations have also been supported using D...
