Fault-Tolerant Control Of A Pmsg-Based Wind Turbine Based On Parallelinterleaved Converters, Mohamed Abbes
Fault-Tolerant Control Of A Pmsg-Based Wind Turbine Based On Parallelinterleaved Converters, Mohamed Abbes
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Lowering the cost of wind energy has been one of the main objectives of the wind industry in the past years. To achieve this objective, considerable research efforts have been made to improve the availability of wind turbines. Recent statistical analyses have shown that frequency converters are among the most frequently failing components for variable speed wind systems. Therefore, several configurations were proposed in the literature to improve the availability of these generating devices. These configurations are mainly based on the redundancy of power converters (active and standby) or the converter bypass technique. However, for the special case of PMSG-based …

Blood pressure estimation systems with low error rates have been developed besides the new technologies and algorithms. Blood pressure measurements are differentiated as invasive blood pressure (IBP) measurement and noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurement methods. Although IBP measurement provides the most accurate …
Sparsity-Based Three-Dimensional Image Reconstruction For Near-Field Mimo Radar Imaging, Fi̇gen S. Oktem
Sparsity-Based Three-Dimensional Image Reconstruction For Near-Field Mimo Radar Imaging, Fi̇gen S. Oktem
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Near-field multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar imaging systems are of interest in diverse fields such as medicine, through-wall imaging, airport security, concealed weapon detection, and surveillance. The successful operation of these radar imaging systems highly depends on the quality of the images reconstructed from radar data. Since the underlying scenes can be typically represented sparsely in some transform domain, sparsity priors can effectively regularize the image formation problem and hence enable high-quality reconstructions. In this paper, we develop an efficient three-dimensional image reconstruction method that exploits sparsity in near-field MIMO radar imaging. Sparsity is enforced using total variation regularization, and the …

Symptom-Aware Hybrid Fault Diagnosis Algorithm In The Network Virtualization Environment, Yuze Su, Xiangru Meng, Xiaoyang Han, Qiaoyan Kang
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
As an important technology in next-generation networks, network virtualization has received more and more attention. Fault diagnosis is the crucial element for fault management and it is the process of inferring the exact failure in the network virtualization environment (NVE) from the set of observed symptoms. Although various traditional fault diagnosis algorithms have been proposed, the virtual network has some new characteristics, which include inaccessible fault information of the substrate network, inaccurate network observations, and a dynamic embedding relationship. To solve these challenges, a symptom-aware hybrid fault diagnosis (SAHFD) algorithm in the NVE is proposed in this paper. First, a …

In this paper, a greedy and agglomerative approach is proposed to detect communities. The proposed method is fast and often detects high-quality communities. The suggested method has several steps. In the first step, each node is assigned to a separated community. In the second step, a vertex …
A Comprehensive Methodology To Evaluate The Performance Of A Cooperative Wireless Network, Aykut Kalaycioğlu, Ahmet Akbulut, Asim Egemen Yilmaz, Di̇lek Arslan
A Comprehensive Methodology To Evaluate The Performance Of A Cooperative Wireless Network, Aykut Kalaycioğlu, Ahmet Akbulut, Asim Egemen Yilmaz, Di̇lek Arslan
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Performance evaluation of a cooperative wireless communication network depends on several parameters. Many of the studies, in fact, take a limited number of performance metrics individually to reach a conclusion about the performance of a network. Besides, in general, some performance metrics might be in conflict. Thus, ignoring the combined effect of all performance criteria in the network may lead to an incorrect conception of the overall communication performance of the network. Therefore, in this study, a comprehensive evaluation methodology in terms of various metrics is proposed to calculate the performance of a cooperative wireless communication network deployment using a …

Atomic-Shaped Efficient Delay And Data Gathering Routing Protocol For Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks, Wajiha Farooq, Tariq Ali, Ahmad Shaf, Muhammad Umar, Sana Yasin
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
High end-to-end delay is a major challenge in autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV)-aided routing protocols for underwater monitoring applications. In this paper, a new routing protocol called atomic-shaped efficient delay and data gathering (ASEDG) has been introduced for underwater wireless sensor networks. The ASEDG is divided into two phases; in the first phase, the atomic-shaped trajectory model with horizontal and vertical ellipticals was designed for the movement of the AUV. In the second phase, two types of delay models were considered to make our protocol more delay efficient: member nodes (MNs) to MNs and MNs to gateway nodes (GNs). The MNs-to-MNs …

An Algorithm For Line Matching In An Image By Mapping Into An $N$-Dimensional Vector Space, Rayi̇mbek Sultanov, Ahmet Atakan, Rita Ismailova
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper proposes a minimal length difference algorithm for construction of a line in an image by solving the problem of optimal contour approximation. In this algorithm, a method for finding interest points is proposed, and the object matching (classification) is done by mapping interest points onto a vector space. In cases where the lines in the representation of the images are not smooth, the algorithm converges rapidly. The results of the experiments showed that for convergence of the contour simplification, there were 5-6 iterations for $n = 13$. To check how close the curve approximation calculated by the algorithm …

An Improved Imperialist Competitive Algorithm For Global Optimization, Ting You, Yueli Hu, Peijiang Li, Yinggan Tang
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA), inspired by sociopolitical behavior in the real world, is a new optimization algorithm. The ICA shows great potential to solve complex optimization problems. In order to improve the ICA's exploration ability and speed up its convergence, two improved schemes are proposed in this paper. The first scheme presents a new possession probability in the imperialistic competition phase. Inspired by geopolitics, not only the power of the empire but also the distance between the imperialists are taken into account in calculating the new possession probability. The second scheme introduces the wavelet mutation operator into the original …
Test Case Prioritization And Distributed Testing Of Object-Oriented Program, Vipin Kumar K S, Sheena Mathew
Test Case Prioritization And Distributed Testing Of Object-Oriented Program, Vipin Kumar K S, Sheena Mathew
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Software systems have increased in size and complexity. As a result, object-oriented programming (OOP) is increasingly being used in the development of such large and complex systems. Traditional procedural programming requires a design method that follows a sequential flow of control, which is difficult to follow in the case of large systems design. Thinking in terms of real-life objects and their interactions makes design easier in the case of OOP. However, OOP comes with its own set of disadvantages and testing is one of them. Testing of such systems requires much more effort and time. In our approach the program …

A Robust Ensemble Feature Selector Based On Rank Aggregation For Developing New Vo\Textsubscript{2}Max Prediction Models Using Support Vector Machines, Fatih Abut, Mehmet Fati̇h Akay, James George
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper proposes a new ensemble feature selector, called the majority voting feature selector (MVFS), for developing new maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) prediction models using a support vector machine (SVM). The approach is based on rank aggregation, which meaningfully utilizes the correlation among the relevance ranks of predictor variables given by three state-of-the-art feature selectors: Relief-F, minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR), and maximum likelihood feature selection (MLFS). By applying the SVM combined with MVFS on a self-created dataset containing maximal and submaximal exercise data from 185 college students, several new hybrid (VO2max) prediction models have been created. To compare the …
Incremental Author Name Disambiguation Using Author Profile Models And Self-Citations, Ijaz Hussain, Sohail Asghar
Incremental Author Name Disambiguation Using Author Profile Models And Self-Citations, Ijaz Hussain, Sohail Asghar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Author name ambiguity in bibliographic databases (BDs) such as DBLP is a challenging problem that degrades the information retrieval quality, citation analysis, and proper attribution to the authors. It occurs when several authors have the same name (homonym) or when an author publishes under several name variants (synonym). Traditionally, much research has been conducted to disambiguate whole bibliographic database at once whenever some new citations are added in these BDs. However, it is more time-consuming and discards the manual disambiguation effects (if any). Only a few incremental author name disambiguation methods are proposed but these methods produce fragmented clusters which …

I See Ek: A Lightweight Technique To Reveal Exploit Kit Family By Overall Url Patterns Of Infection Chains, Emre Süren, Peli̇n Angin, Nazi̇fe Baykal
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The prevalence and nonstop evolving technical sophistication of exploit kits (EKs) is one of the most challenging shifts in the modern cybercrime landscape. Over the last few years, malware infections via drive-by download attacks have been orchestrated with EK infrastructures. Malicious advertisements and compromised websites redirect victim browsers to web-based EK families that are assembled to exploit client-side vulnerabilities and finally deliver evil payloads. A key observation is that while the webpage contents have drastic differences between distinct intrusions executed through the same EK, the patterns in URL addresses stay similar. This is due to the fact that autogenerated URLs …
Adaptive Canonical Correlation Analysis For Harmonic Stimulation Frequencies Recognition In Ssvep-Based Bcis, Sahar Sadeghi, Ali Maleki
Adaptive Canonical Correlation Analysis For Harmonic Stimulation Frequencies Recognition In Ssvep-Based Bcis, Sahar Sadeghi, Ali Maleki
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) is the brain's response to quickly repetitive visual stimulus with a certain frequency. To increase the information transfer rate (ITR) in SSVEP-based systems, due to the frequency resolution restriction, we are forced to broaden the frequency range, which causes harmonic frequencies to come into the stimulation frequency range. Conventional canonical correlation analysis (CCA) may be associated with error for SSVEP frequency recognition at stimulation frequencies with harmonic relations. The number of harmonics considered to construct reference signals are determined adaptively; for frequencies whose second harmonic exists in the frequency range, two harmonics are used, and …

Scale-Invariant Mfccs For Speech/Speaker Recognition, Zekeri̇ya Tüfekci̇, Gökay Di̇şken
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The feature extraction process is a fundamental part of speech processing. Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) are the most commonly used feature types in the speech/speaker recognition literature. However, the MFCC framework may face numerical issues or dynamic range problems, which decreases their performance. A practical solution to these problems is adding a constant to filter-bank magnitudes before log compression, thus violating the scale-invariant property. In this work, a magnitude normalization and a multiplication constant are introduced to make the MFCCs scale-invariant and to avoid dynamic range expansion of nonspeech frames. Speaker verification experiments are conducted to show the effectiveness …

Extracting Accent Information From Urdu Speech For Forensic Speaker Recognition, Falak Tahir, Sajid Saleem, Ayaz Ahmad
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper presents a new method for extraction of accent information from Urdu speech signals. Accent is used in speaker recognition system especially in forensic cases and plays a vital role in discriminating people of different groups, communities and origins due to their different speaking styles. The proposed method is based on Gaussian mixture model-universal background model (GMM-UBM), mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC), and a data augmentation (DA) process. The DA process appends features to base MFCC features and improves the accent extraction and forensic speaker recognition performances of GMM-UBM. Experiments are performed on an Urdu forensic speaker corpus. The experimental …
A Hybrid Of Fuzzy Theory And Quadratic Function For Estimating And Refining Transmission Map, Jyun-Yu Jhang, Chengjian Lin, Kuu-Young Young, Chin-Teng Lin
A Hybrid Of Fuzzy Theory And Quadratic Function For Estimating And Refining Transmission Map, Jyun-Yu Jhang, Chengjian Lin, Kuu-Young Young, Chin-Teng Lin
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In photographs captured in outdoor environments, particles in the air cause light attenuation and degrade image quality. This effect is especially obvious in hazy environments. In this study, a fuzzy theory is proposed to estimate the transmission map of a single image. To overcome the problem of oversaturation in dehazed images, a quadratic-function-based method is proposed to refine the transmission map. In addition, the color vector of the atmospheric light is estimated using the top 1\% of the brightest light area. Finally, the dehazed image is reconstructed using the transmission map and the estimated atmospheric light. Experimental results demonstrate that …
A Novel Hardware-Efficient Spatial Orientation Tree-Based Image Compression Algorithm And Its Field Programmable Gate Array Implementation, Mohd Rafi Lone, Najeeb-Ud-Din Hakim
A Novel Hardware-Efficient Spatial Orientation Tree-Based Image Compression Algorithm And Its Field Programmable Gate Array Implementation, Mohd Rafi Lone, Najeeb-Ud-Din Hakim
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) has become a popular research topic for more than a decade now. This is because it is simple, besides having compression efficiency close to the state-of-the-art JPEG2000 standard. The main drawback of SPIHT is that it uses three lists to store addresses of coefficients during its operation. These lists are dynamic and in worst cases need to store more number of addresses than total coefficients. In this work, a novel hardware-efficient spatial orientation tree-based algorithm is proposed and its hardware implementation is carried out. The wavelet transformed image is partitioned into 2 $\times$ 2 …

Bidding Strategy For Generators Considering Ramp Rates In A Day-Ahead Electricity Market, Satyendra Singh, Manoj Fozdar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In a day-ahead electricity market, competitive bidding strategy plays a vital role for power suppliers to maximize their profit. In this type of market, each power supplier submits a set of hourly production prices and offers capacity for the next period. The market operator, after receiving this data along with forecasted hourly load from the demand side, allocates production output to each unit. Power suppliers face the problem in trading their offers in the market, due to the uncertain behavior of competitive power suppliers and power demand. Therefore, the power supplier requires a suitable bidding strategy for handling uncertainty in …

Heat Flux Capacity Measurement And Improvement For The Test Of Superconducting Logic Circuits In Closed-Cycle Cryostats, Sasan Razmkhah, Ali̇ Bozbey
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
With the current progress of superconducting integrated circuits, circuit complexities have reached more than 100,000 Josephson junctions. At the laboratory environment, circuit tests are generally being conducted at liquid Helium environments. With the commercialization of the superconducting integrated circuit-based systems and/or price increase of liquid Helium, utilization of the closed-cycle systems will be inevitable. Even though it is possible to implement closed-cycle systems with quite substantial excess cooling powers after all the wirings and peripheral circuits, one point not to be overlooked is the power density at the superconducting chips. We have observed that the circuits designed for operation at …
