    ROI Detection in Mammogram Images Using Wavelet-Based Haralick and Hog Features
    (IEEE, 2018-12) Tasdemir, Sena Busra Yengec; Tasdemir, Kasim; Aydin, Zafer; Yengec Tasdemir, Sena Busra
    Digital mammography is a widespread medical imaging technique that is used for early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. Detecting the region of interest (ROI) helps to locate the abnormal areas, which may be analyzed further by a radiologist or a CAD system. In this paper, a new classification method is proposed for ROI detection in mammography images. Features are extracted using Wavelet transform, Haralick and HOG descriptors. To reduce the number of dimensions and eliminate irrelevant features, a wrapper-based feature selection method is implemented. Several feature extraction methods and machine learning classifiers are compared by performing a leave-one-image-out cross-validation experiment on a difficult dataset. The proposed feature extraction method provides the best accuracy of 87.5% and the second-best area under curve (AUC) score of 84% when employed in a random forest classifier.

    Feature Selection for Protein Dihedral Angle Prediction
    (IEEE, 2017) Aydin, Zafer; Kaynar, Oguz; Gormez, Yasin
    Three-dimensional structure prediction has crucial importance for bioinformatics and theoretical chemistry. One of the main steps of three-dimensional structure prediction is dihedral (torsion) angle prediction. As new feature extraction methods are developed the dimension of the input space increases considerably yielding longer model training and less accurate models due to noisy or redundant features. In this study, feature selection is employed for dimensionality reduction on one of the established benchmarks of protein 1D structure prediction. Experimental results show that the feature selection improves the accuracy of protein dihedral angle class prediction by 2% and can eliminate up to %82 of the features when random forest classifier is used. Accurate prediction of dihedral angles will eventually contribute to protein structure prediction.

    Combining Classifiers for Protein Secondary Structure Prediction
    (IEEE, 2017) Aydin, Zafer; Uzut, Ommu Gulsum
    Protein secondary structure prediction is an important step in estimating the three dimensional structure of proteins. Among the many methods developed for predicting structural properties of proteins, hybrid classifiers and ensembles that combine predictions from several models are shown to improve the accuracy rates. In this paper, we train, optimize and combine a support vector machine, a deep convolutional neural field and a random forest in the second stage of a hybrid classifier for protein secondary structure prediction. We demonstrate that the overall accuracy of the proposed ensemble is comparable to the success rates of the state-of-the-art methods in the most difficult prediction setting and combining the selected models have the potential to further improve the accuracy of the base learners.
