Automatic Characterization Of Copy Number Polymorphism Using High Throughput Sequencing, Can Alkan Jan 2020

Automatic Characterization Of Copy Number Polymorphism Using High Throughput Sequencing, Can Alkan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Genome structural variation, broadly defined as alterations longer than 50 bp, are important sources for genetic variation among humans, including those that cause complex diseases such as autism, developmental delay, and schizophrenia. Although there has been considerable progress in characterizing structural variation since the beginnings of the 1000 Genomes Project, one form of structural variation called segmental duplications (SDs) remained largely understudied in large cohorts. This is mostly because SDs cannot be accurately discovered using the alignment files generated with standard read mapping tools. Instead, they can only be found when multiple map locations are considered. There is still a …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Lung cancer is one of the deadly cancer types, and almost 85 % of lung cancers are nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In the present study we investigated classification and feature selection methods for the differentiation of two subtypes of NSCLC, namely adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC). The major advances in understanding the effects of therapy agents suggest that future targeted therapies will be increasingly subtype specific. We obtained positron emission tomography (PET) images of 93 patients with NSCLC, 39 of which had ADC while the rest had SqCC. Random walk segmentation was applied to delineate three-dimensional tumor …


On The Automorphisms And Isomorphisms Of Mds Matrices And Their Efficient Implementations, Muharrem Tolga Sakalli, Sedat Akleylek, Kemal Akkanat, Vincent Rijmen Jan 2020

On The Automorphisms And Isomorphisms Of Mds Matrices And Their Efficient Implementations, Muharrem Tolga Sakalli, Sedat Akleylek, Kemal Akkanat, Vincent Rijmen

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we explicitly define the automorphisms of MDS matrices over the same binary extension field. By extending this idea, we present the isomorphisms between MDS matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}$ and MDS matrices over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{mt}}$, where $t \ge 1$ and $m>1$, which preserves the software implementation properties in view of XOR operations and table lookups of any given MDS matrix over $\mathbb{F}_{2^{m}}$. Then we propose a novel method to obtain distinct functions related to these automorphisms and isomorphisms to be used in generating isomorphic MDS matrices (new MDS matrices in view of implementation properties) using the existing ones. The …


A Novel S-Box-Based Postprocessing Method For True Random Number Generation, Erdi̇nç Avaroğlu, Taner Tuncer Jan 2020

A Novel S-Box-Based Postprocessing Method For True Random Number Generation, Erdi̇nç Avaroğlu, Taner Tuncer

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The quality of randomness in numbers generated by true random number generators (TRNGs) depends on the source of entropy. However, in TRNGs, sources of entropy are affected by environmental changes and this creates a correlation between the generated bit sequences. Postprocessing is required to remove the problem created by this correlation in TRNGs. In this study, an S-box-based postprocessing structure is proposed as an alternative to the postprocessing structures seen in the published literature. A ring oscillator (RO)-based TRNG is used to demonstrate the use of an S-box for postprocessing and the removal of correlations between number sequences. The statistical …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

n this paper, we introduce a machine learning approach to the problem of infrared small target detection filter design. For this purpose, similar to a convolutional layer of a neural network, the normalized-cross-correlational (NCC) layer, which we utilize for designing a target detection/recognition filter bank, is proposed. By employing the NCC layer in a neural network structure, we introduce a framework, in which supervised training is used to calculate the optimal filter shape and the optimum number of filters required for a specific target detection/recognition task on infrared images. We also propose the mean-absolute-deviation NCC (MAD-NCC) layer, an efficient implementation …

On The Asymptotic Analysis Of The High-Order Statistics Of The Channel Capacity Over Generalized Fading Channels, Ferkan Yilmaz Jan 2020

On The Asymptotic Analysis Of The High-Order Statistics Of The Channel Capacity Over Generalized Fading Channels, Ferkan Yilmaz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this article, we provide further asymptotic analysis to the higher-order statistics (HOS) of the channel capacity over generalized fading channels, especially by proposing simple and closed-form expressions each of which can be easily computed as a tight bound revealing the existence of constant gap between the actual and asymptotic HOS of the channel capacity in the limit of both high and low signal-to-noise ratios. As such, we show that these closed-form asymptotic expressions are insightful enough to comprehend the diversity gains. The mathematical formalism we followed in this article is illustrated with some selected numerical examples that validate the …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This communication presents a miniaturised series linear wideband array of notched rectangular dielectric resonator antennas that operate in the band IEEE 802.11a. Three dielectric resonators (DRs) were excited through the aperture slots coupled with a microstrip feed. To improve the array gain, the aperture slots were placed based on the attributes related to the standing-wave ratio on a short-ended microstrip feeder to obtain optimal joint power for the DRs, while the bandwidth was improved using the notched rectangular DRs. An equivalent impedance model of the proposed array was postulated to provide physical insight into the array resonance behaviour. The impedance …

In this study, a new lens design especially suitable for convex conformal arrays is introduced. The new lens has no perfect focal points, but there are a certain number of correct phases in each of the beam directions. The directional patterns of the radiating elements are also taken into account to improve radiation patterns for desired directions. It has been shown that the new lens …


Controlling Waveguide Modes Using $\Mathcal{Pt}$ Transformation Media, Hayretti̇n Odabaşi Jan 2020

Controlling Waveguide Modes Using $\Mathcal{Pt}$ Transformation Media, Hayretti̇n Odabaşi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

We study rectangular waveguide modes loaded with parity-time $\left(\mathcal{PT}\right)$ transformation media derived by complex transformation optics (CTO) approach. $\mathcal{PT}$ transformation media are obtained through mirror symmetric complex coordinate transformations resulting in a balanced loss/gain media. It is shown that waveguide modes can be controlled by simply changing the imaginary part of the complex coordinate transformation while not affecting any other characteristic of the waveguide. The field distribution inside the waveguide can either be stretched towards the sides or squeezed at the center of the waveguide by employing different loading configurations. \keywords{Complex transformation optics, waveguides, $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry}

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The penetration of inverter-based power plants (IBPPs), such as large-scale photovoltaic (PV) power plants (LPPPs), is ever increasing considering the merits of renewable energy power plants (REPPs). Given that IBPPs are added to power systems or replaced by conventional power plants, they should undertake the most common tasks of synchronous generators. The low-frequency oscillation (LFO) damping through the power system stabilizers (PSSs) of synchronous generators is regarded as one of the common tasks in power plants. This paper proposes an optimal fractional-order proportional-integral-derivative (FOPID) controller implemented in the control loop of IBPPs for LFO damping in power systems. For this …

Thus, the algorithm used is an essential factor for speed and quality of the floorplanning process. Although polynomial-time floorplanning algorithms can be implemented when solution space is limited to slicing floorplans, optimal solutions often exist only in the nonslicing floorplan search space. Various stochastic algorithms …
