Conference Object High Performance and Resource Efficient Low Density Parity Check Decoder Design(IEEE, 2025-06-25) Unal, BurakLow Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes have gained popularity in communication systems due to their capacity-approaching error correction performance. In this study, a highperformance LDPC decoding algorithm with extremely low resource usage is proposed. Among the hard decision class of LDPC decoders, Gallager B (GaB) provides high-performance hardware due to its computational simplicity. However, GaB suffers from poor error-correction performance. In this study, a new intrinsic computation technique for GaB called Intrinsic Gallager B (IGaB) is introduced to improve error correction performance. Our simulation results show that the IGaB algorithm provides better error correction performance compared with GaB. GaB and IGaB algorithms are implemented on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) to compare hardware performance.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Fine Tuning DeepSeek and Llama Large Language Models with LoRA(IEEE, 2025-06-25) Uluirmak, Bugra Alperen; Kurban, RifatIn this paper, Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) finetuning of two different large language models (DeepSeek R1 Distill 8B and Llama3.1 8B) was performed using the Turkish dataset. Training was performed on Google Colab using A100 40 GB GPU, while the testing phase was carried out on Runpod using L4 24 GB GPU. The 64.6 thousand row dataset was transformed into question-answer pairs from the fields of agriculture, education, law and sustainability. In the testing phase, 40 test questions were asked for each model via Ollama web UI and the results were supported with graphs and detailed tables. It was observed that the performance of the existing language models improved with the fine-tuning method.Article Tax Compliance Behaviour and Lab Experiments: A Literature Review(Maliye Bakanligi, 2021) Demirtas, Burak KaganThe purpose of this article is to conduct a literature review of the papers based on laboratory experiments to analyze tax evasion behaviors of individuals. Although experimental studies in economics have become more and more important day by day, there are almost no publications on experimental economics in the Turkish literature. The studies are examined especially in terms of experimental designs because this study also aims to increase awareness about laboratory experiments. This review also discusses the criticism of laboratory experiments and concludes that the results obtained from laboratory experiments are important and it would be beneficial to support them with field experiments.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Prediction of Type 2 Diabetes Using Metagenomic Data and Identification of Taxonomic Biomarkers(IEEE, 2024-05-15) Temiz, Mustafa; Kuzudisli, Cihan; Yousef, Malik; Bakir-Gungor, BurcuNowadays, different molecular levels of -omics data on diseases are generated and analyzing these data with machine learning methods is one of the popular research topics. Among these data, the use of metagenomic data to facilitate the diagnosis, detection and treatment of diseases is increasing day by day. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic disease characterized by insulin resistance and progressive dysfunction of pancreatic beta cells. While the number of people with diabetes is increasing by around 8% annually, the cost of treating the disease is rising by 18% per year. Therefore, the number of studies on the diagnosis, development and progression of T2D is increasing over time. The aim of this study is to achieve higher machine learning performance by using fewer metagenomic features and to achieve better classification performance by reducing computational costs. In this study, we compare the performance of three different methods using T2D-related metagenomic data. First, the MetaPhlAn tool is used to calculate the taxonomic species and their relative abundances in each sample. The SVM-RCE, RCE-IFE and microBiomeGSM tools used in this study are methods that perform classification by grouping and scoring features and are known to work well on complex datasets. In this study, the best results were obtained with the RCE-IFE tool with an AUC of 0.72 with an average of 125 features information. In addition, key taxonomic species identified by these tools as associated with T2D are presented in comparison to the literature.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1PCB Component Recognition With Semi-Supervised Image Clustering(IEEE, 2021-06-09) Unal, Ahmet Emin; Tasdemir, Kasim; Bahcebasi, AkifClassification of surface mounted devices plays an important role on automated inspection systems of printed component board production. Limited number of publicly available datasets which the components are labeled and high intraclass variance in these datasets causes the supervised approches to be inefficient. In this study a deep learning method, enhanced with an unsupervised clustering system, which uses a small set of labeled data is proposed. The method compared with the current studies and the supervised systems. Most optimized setting reached high accuracy results by outrunning current classification methods.Conference Object Lifetime Analysis of Underwater Wireless Networks Concerning Privacy With Energy Harvesting and Compressive Sensing(IEEE, 2019-04) Uyan, O. Gokhan; Gungor, V. CagriUnderwater sensor networks (UWSN) are a division of classical wireless sensor networks (WSN), which are designed to accomplish both military and civil operations, such as invasion detection and underwater life monitoring. Underwater sensor nodes operate using the energy provided by integrated limited batteries, and it is a serious challenge to replace the battery under the water especially in harsh conditions with a high number of sensor nodes. Here, energy efficiency confronts as a very important issue. Besides energy efficiency, data privacy is another essential topic since UWSN typically generate delicate sensing data. UWSN can be vulnerable to silent positioning and listening, which is injecting similar adversary nodes into close locations to the network to sniff transmitted data. In this paper, we discuss the usage of compressive sensing (CS) and energy harvesting (EH) to improve the lifetime of the network whilst we suggest a novel encryption decision method to maintain privacy of UWSN. We also deploy a Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) model to optimize the encryption decision cases which leads to an improved network lifetime.Conference Object Investigation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Molecular Mechanisms via in Silico Analyses(IEEE, 2020-09) Dogan, Refika Sultan; Saka, Samed; Gungor, Burcu BakirHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common cause of cancer-related death in the world. The molecular changes in the organism during the development of HCC are not fully understood. The aim of the present study is to contribute to the identification of critical genes and pathways associated with HCC via integrating various bioinformatics methods. In this study, experiments were conducted on gene expression data of 14 HCC tissues and non-cancerous control tissues. A total of 1229 genes, which show a statistically significant change between the groups, were identified. Among these, 681 genes were upregulated and 548 genes were downregulated. Via mapping the detected genes into protein protein interaction networks, active subnetwork search, subnetwork topological analysis and functional enrichment analyses were carried out. The interactions between the molecular pathways affected by HCC were also presented.Conference Object Graph-Based Biomedical Knowledge Discovery(IEEE, 2024-05-15) Altuner, Osman; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Bakal, GokhanThe digitalization process is progressing at a very high speed all over the world. While this situation provides many conveniences in today's life, it also brings along a problem such as analyzing and processing the huge digital data. This also applies to published academic studies. In this sense, the process of evaluating each study to access previously unknown information within the studies requires a very laborious process. For this reason, in this study, the publications obtained for the target diseases were analyzed by text analysis processes and converted into a graph structure that enables the linking of meaningful terms through biomedical relationships. On the dense graph structure obtained, binary biomedical entities with important links such as treats, causes, associated_with were queried. The entity pairs obtained according to the query results were also confirmed by manual search method and proved to be real connections. In this study, retrieval of known biomedical entities with the proposed approach solved the time-consuming manual search problem. There is also the potential to obtain unknown/unexplored possible new relationships (e.g., therapeutic, causal, etc.) with multiple binary linking patterns.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Credit Card Fraud Detection With Machine Learning Methods(IEEE, 2019-09) Goy, Gokhan; Gezer, Cengiz; Gungor, Vehbi CagriWith the increase in credit card usage of people, the credit card transactions increase dramatically. It is difficult to identify fraudulent transactions among the vast amount of credit card transactions. Although credit card fraud is limited in number of transactions, it causes serious problems in terms of financial losses for individuals and organizations. Even though large number of studies has been conducted to solve this problem, there is no generally accepted solution. In this paper, a publicly available data set is used. The unbalance problem of the data set was solved by using hybrid sampling methods together. On this data set, comparative performance evaluations have been conducted. Different from other studies, the Area Under the Curve (AUC) metric, which expresses the success in such data sets, has also been used in addition to standard performance metrics. Since it is also important to quickly detect credit card fraud transactions; the running time of different methods is also presented as another performance metric.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Blockchain-Based Fog Computing Applications in Healthcare(IEEE, 2020-10-05) Adanur, Beyhan; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Soran, AhmetRecently, the use of blockchain technology in the field of healthcare has increased.
