    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Unal, Ahmet Emin; Boyar, Halit; Kuleli Pak, Burcu Kuleli; Cem Yildiz, Mehmet; Erten, Ali Erman; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı; Pak, Burcu Kuleli; Cagri Gungor, Vehbi
    Accurately predicting the cost is crucial for the success of complex industrial projects. There can be several sources contributing to the cost. Traditional methods for cost estimation may not provide the required accuracy and speed to ensure the success of the project. Recently, machine learning techniques have shown promising results in improving cost estimation in various industrial products. This study investigates the performance of gradient-boosting machine learning models and feature engineering techniques on a private dataset of metal sheet project man-hour costs. A comparison of distinct models is conducted, key aspects influencing cost are identified, and the implications of incorporating domain-specific knowledge, including its advantages and disadvantages, are assessed based on performance outcomes. Experimental results demonstrate that LightGBM and XGBoost outperform other models, and feature selection and synthetic data generation techniques improve the performance. Overall, this study highlights the potential of machine learning in metal sheet sampling projects and emphasizes the importance of feature engineering and domain expertise for better model performance. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Stacking Ensemble Learning-Based Wireless Sensor Network Deployment Parameter Estimation
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2023) Akbas, Ayhan; Buyrukoglu, Selim
    In wireless sensor network projects, it is generally desired to cover the area to be monitored at a given cost and to achieve the maximum useful network lifetime. In the deployment of the wireless sensors, it is necessary to know in advance how many sensor nodes will be required, how much the distance between the nodes should be, etc., or what the transmit power level should be, etc. depending on the channel parameters of the area. This necessitates accurate calculation of variables such as maximum network lifetime, communication channel parameters, number of nodes to be used, and distance between nodes. As numbers reach to the order of hundreds, calculation tends to a NP hard problem to solve. At this point, we employed both single-based and stacked ensemble-based machine learning models to speed up the parameter estimations with highly accurate outcomes. Adaboost was superior over other models (Elastic Net, SVR) in single-based models. Stacked ensemble models achieved best results for the WSN parameter prediction compared to single-based models.

    Human identification using palm print images based on deep learning methods and gray wolf optimization algorithm
    (SPRINGER, 2023-10-24) Alshakree, Firas; Akbas, Ayhan; Rahebi, Javad
    Palm print identification is a biometric technique that relies on the distinctive characteristics of a person’s palm print to distinguish and authenticate their identity. The unique pattern of ridges, lines, and other features present on the palm allows for the identification of an individual. The ridges and lines on the palm are formed during embryonic development and remain relatively unchanged throughout a person’s lifetime, making palm prints an ideal candidate for biometric identification. Using deep learning networks, such as GoogLeNet, SqueezeNet, and AlexNet combined with gray wolf optimization, we achieved to extract and analyze the unique features of a person’s palm print to create a digital representation that can be used for identification purposes with a high degree of accuracy. To this end, two well-known datasets, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University dataset and the Tongji Contactless dataset, were used for testing and evaluation. The recognition rate of the proposed method was compared with other existing methods such as principal component analysis, including local binary pattern and Laplacian of Gaussian-Gabor transform. The results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms other methods with a recognition rate of 96.72%. These findings show that the combination of deep learning and gray wolf optimization can effectively improve the accuracy of human identification using palm print images.

    Street Vendor Detection: Helping Municipalities Make Decisions With Actionable Insights
    (IEEE, 2021) Agba, Hatice Nur; Tahir, Abdullah
    Street vendors are quite common in countries across the world. By the prevalence of mobile surveillance systems, increasing demand for automatic detection of street vendors for further decisions and planning by the city administrators emerged. In this paper, an object detector is developed using a MobileNet SSD object detection algorithm to detect vendors on the street. For this study images were used, however, in the future this technique could be used for real time video footage from street cameras. Since this is the first study tackling this issue, a data set was created from scratch. The accuracy achieved by the algorithm is promising considering the size of the data set and the minimal computational power available. The goal of this research is to pave the way for more work to be done in this area and help municipalities improve their decision making process regarding street vendor activities in countries like Mexico, Pakistan, China, Turkey, etc.

    CBI4.0: A Cross-Layer Approach for Big Data Gathering for Active Monitoring and Maintenance in the Manufacturing Industry 4.0
    (Elsevier, 2021) Faheem, Muhammad; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Ali, Rashid; Raza, Basit; Ngadi, Md Asri; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri
    Industry 4.0 (I4.0) defines a new paradigm to produce high-quality products at the low cost by reacting quickly and effectively to changing demands in the highly volatile global markets. In Industry 4.0, the adoption of Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled Wireless Sensors (WSs) in the manufacturing processes, such as equipment, machining, assembly, material handling, inspection, etc., generates a huge volume of data known as Industrial Big Data (IBD). However, the reliable and efficient gathering and transmission of this big data from the source sensors to the floor inspection system for the real-time monitoring of unexpected changes in the production and quality control processes is the biggest challenge for Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (IWSNs). This is because of the harsh nature of the indoor industrial environment that causes high noise, signal fading, multipath effects, heat and electromagnetic interference, which reduces the transmission quality and trigger errors in the IWSNs. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel cross-layer data gathering approach called CBI4.0 for active monitoring and control of manufacturing processes in the Industry 4.0. The key aim of the proposed CBI4.0 scheme is to exploit the multi-channel and multi-radio architecture of the sensor network to guarantee quality of service (QoS) requirements, such as higher data rates, throughput, and low packet loss, corrupted packets, and latency by dynamically switching between different frequency bands in the Multichannel Wireless Sensor Networks (MWSNs). By performing several simulation experiments through EstiNet 9.0 simulator, the performance of the proposed CBI4.0 scheme is compared against existing studies in the automobile Industry 4.0. The experimental outcomes show that the proposed scheme outperforms existing schemes and is suitable for effective control and monitoring of various events in the automobile Industry 4.0.

    Structure Health Monitoring Using Wireless Sensor Networks on Structural Elements (vol 82, pg 68, 2019)
    (ELSEVIER, RADARWEG 29, 1043 NX AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, 2020) Ayyildiz, Cem; Erdem, H. Emre; Dirikgil, Tamer; Dugenci, Oguz; Kocak, Taskin; Altun, Fatih; Gungor, V. Cagri
    This paper presents a system that monitors the health of structural elements in Reinforced Concrete (RC), concrete elements and/or masonry buildings and warn the authorities in case of physical damage formation. Such rapid and reliable detection of impairments enables the development of better risk management strategies to prevent casualties in case of earthquake and floods. Piezoelectric (PZT) sensors with lead zirconate titanate material are the preferred sensor type for fracture detection. The developed sensor mote hardware triggers the PZT sensors and collects the responses they gather from the structural elements. It also sends the collected data to a data center for further processing and analysis in an energy-efficient manner utilizing low-power wireless communication technologies. The access and the analysis of the collected data can be remotely performed via a web interface. Performance results show that the fractures serious enough to cause structural problems can be successfully detected with the developed system.
