An Efficient Structure For T-Cntfets With Intrinsic-N-Doped Impurity Distribution Pattern In Drain Region, Ali Naderi, Maryam Ghodrati
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, by using impurity distribution engineering of drain region, an efficient structure is proposed for tunneling carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (T-CNTFETs). The drain region of the proposed structure consists of two parts. The impurity density of the part close to the channel is intrinsic and the other is n-type with constant density of 1 nm$^{-1}$. In conventional T-CNTFETs, heavily doped drain causes a spiky drop of potential energy around the channel to drain junction resulting in a pathway for carriers in the valence band to tunnel to the conduction band which means ambipolar behavior and large leakage current. …

Enlarging Multiword Expression Dataset By Co-Training, Senem Kumova Meti̇n
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In multiword expressions (MWEs), multiple words unite to build a new unit in language. When MWE identification is accepted as a binary classification task, one of the most important factors in performance is to train the classifier with enough number of labelled samples. Since manual labelling is a time-consuming task, the performances of MWE recognition studies are limited with the size of the training sets. In this study, we propose the comparison-based and common-decision co-training approaches in order to enlarge the MWE dataset. In the experiments, the performances of the proposed approaches were compared to those of the standard co-training …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), limited-capacity batteries are generally used for powering sensor nodes, where unbalanced electricity is the primary cause of premature death of WSNs. In this paper, wireless power transfer networks are used to power batteries in WSNs to avoid the problem of limited lifetime of traditional limited-capacity batteries. Furthermore, path planning based on the Dijkstra algorithm, which aims at minimizing the overall energy consumption in the network to improve system efficiency, is discussed in detail. Finally, three power transfer models with low contention level (LCL) topology for energy flow control are experimentally validated from the optimal path.

QoE depends both on the users' perception and the used service, which together form end-to-end metrics. While network optimization has traditionally focused on optimizing network properties such as QoS, we focus in this work on optimizing end-to-end QoE metrics with the aim to deliver to the client a good QoE that can be monitored in real time. We argue that end-user QoE is a relevant measurement for network operators and service providers. In this paper, we present a machine learning …

We use a technique where a camera and a projector are both treated as viewing devices. They are calibrated in the same manner. Each visible point can be correctly located on both image planes without solving a correspondence problem; hence, a dense reconstruction can be obtained. Since both the camera and the projector are explicitly calibrated, lighting and viewing directions can be …
