    Real-Time Robotic Car Control Using Brainwaves and Head Movement
    (IEEE, 345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, 2018) Ozturk, Nedime; Yilmaz, Bulent; Onver, Ahmet Yasin
    Emotiv Epoc Headset is a portable and low-cost device. In this study, Emotiv Epoc headset was used in order to obtain real-time gyro and EEG signals. The aim of this study was to control a robotic car in real-time by using head movement and opening and closing of the eyes. The maximum and minimum amplitude of the gyro signal, and the ratios of the beta waves of O1 and O2 channel to alpha waves of the same channels were used as threshold values. These threshold values were used to determine the direction of the robotic car. Because of its low-cost and easy implementation, Arduino Uno was used to manage the robotic car. This study has shown that brain waves and head movements can control a device in real time. This system has the potential to be used in neurofeedback and brain-computer interface applications.

    Detection of Variation Instances on Colonoscopy Videos using Structural Similarity Index
    (IEEE, 345 E 47TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10017 USA, 2018) Kacmaz, Rukiye Nur; Yilmaz, Bulent
    The aim of this study is to reduce the number of images extracted from the videos recorded by the specialists during the colonoscopy process for further examination, thereby enabling the specialist to deal with fewer images. Since the images obtained from the videos are very similar, the main assumption of this study is that the whole video can be represented by fewer images. The approach used in this study is the structural similarity index. Totally, images were obtained from 4 different videos coming from healthy, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's, and polyp patients. The noisy images in these videos were eliminated manually. When the structural similarity index between two consecutive clear images was less than 0.83, the second image was selected and shown to the specialist for his/her examination. By this way, the frames carrying significantly new information from the videos were defined as the variation instances. The tests on healthy or diseased colon videos showed that only 5-10% of the clear images provide significantly new information.
