    Investigating Strain Rate Effects on Damage Mechanisms in Hybrid Laminated Composites Using Acoustic Emission
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025-12) Gulsen, Abdulkadir; Kolukisa, Burak; Etcil, Mustafa; Caliskan, Umut; Zafar, Hafiz Muhammad Numan; Demirbas, Munise Didem; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu
    Hybrid composites, which combine distinct fiber types such as carbon, basalt, and aramid, provide a synergistic balance of strength, stiffness, impact resistance, and energy dissipation, making them appealing for critical applications in aerospace, automotive, and other high-performance industries. Monitoring damage progression in these composites is vital for ensuring structural integrity and preventing catastrophic failures. Acoustic emission (AE) serves as a powerful, noninvasive technique for real-time structural health monitoring, capturing the transient stress waves generated when damage events occur. This study utilizes AE to examine the influence of strain rate on damage modes in carbon/basalt/aramid hybrid composites under three-point bending. An unsupervised feature selection based on Laplacian scores is employed to identify the most relevant AE features with damage modes, while SHapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) are used to evaluate the correlation between AE features and strain rates. The correlation analysis results indicate that peak frequency (PF) serves as a key indicator, demonstrating significant shifts at higher strain rates. Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) clustering is used to analyze hybrid composites by examining clustered AE signals based on selected features identified through Laplacian scores, with Silhouette scores employed to determine the optimal number of clusters. This study highlights the role of AE in understanding fiber interactions and damage evolution, offering valuable insights into the mechanical performance and optimization of carbon/basalt/aramid hybrid composite structures.

    Ensemble Feature Selection for Clustering Damage Modes in Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Sandwich Composites Using Acoustic Emission
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2024-07-15) Gulsen, Abdulkadir; Kolukisa, Burak; Caliskan, Umut; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri
    Acoustic emission (AE) serves as a noninvasive technique for real-time structural health monitoring, capturing the stress waves produced by the formation and growth of cracks within a material. This study presents a novel ensemble feature selection methodology to rank features highly relevant with damage modes in AE signals gathered from edgewise compression tests on honeycomb-core carbon fiber-reinforced polymer. Two distinct features, amplitude and peak frequency, are selected for labeling the AE signals. An ensemble-supervised feature selection method ranks feature importance according to these labels. Using the ranking list, unsupervised clustering models are then applied to identify damage modes. The comparative results reveal a robust correlation between the damage modes and the features of counts and energy when amplitude is selected. Similarly, when peak frequency is chosen, a significant association is observed between the damage modes and the features of partial powers 1 and 2. These findings demonstrate that, in addition to the commonly used features, other features, such as partial powers, exhibit a correlation with damage modes. This article presents a novel ensemble feature selection methodology to rank features relevant to damage modes on acoustic emission signals in carbon fiber-reinforced polymer sandwich composites. Subsequently, ranked features are utilized in unsupervised clustering models to identify damage modes. The comparative results demonstrate that, along with common features, other features, like partial powers, have a robust correlation with damage modes.image (c) 2024 WILEY-VCH GmbH

    Application of Biological Domain Knowledge Based Feature Selection on Gene Expression Data
    (MDPI, 2020-12-22) Yousef, Malik; Kumar, Abhishek; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu
    In the last two decades, there have been massive advancements in high throughput technologies, which resulted in the exponential growth of public repositories of gene expression datasets for various phenotypes. It is possible to unravel biomarkers by comparing the gene expression levels under different conditions, such as disease vs. control, treated vs. not treated, drug A vs. drug B, etc. This problem refers to a well-studied problem in the machine learning domain, i.e., the feature selection problem. In biological data analysis, most of the computational feature selection methodologies were taken from other fields, without considering the nature of the biological data. Thus, integrative approaches that utilize the biological knowledge while performing feature selection are necessary for this kind of data. The main idea behind the integrative gene selection process is to generate a ranked list of genes considering both the statistical metrics that are applied to the gene expression data, and the biological background information which is provided as external datasets. One of the main goals of this review is to explore the existing methods that integrate different types of information in order to improve the identification of the biomolecular signatures of diseases and the discovery of new potential targets for treatment. These integrative approaches are expected to aid the prediction, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases, as well as to enlighten us on disease state dynamics, mechanisms of their onset and progression. The integration of various types of biological information will necessitate the development of novel techniques for integration and data analysis. Another aim of this review is to boost the bioinformatics community to develop new approaches for searching and determining significant groups/clusters of features based on one or more biological grouping functions.
