    Polyp Localization in Colonoscopy Images Using Vessel Density
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-11) Doǧan, Refika Sultan; Yilmaz, Bulent
    In this paper, we present a new approach for polyp localization in colonoscopy images. This approach is based on the determination of the polyp location using the vessel density in colon images. Primarily, we used pre-processing procedures on the colon images, and then blood vessel extraction techniques were employed. Later, segmentation of the vessel boundaries was performed. With the help of vessel boundaries we calculated the vessel density, and used this for the localization of the polyps. We tested the success of this approach using a publicly available image set (CVC-ClinicDB database). This database consisted of 612 images from 29 different polyps. This approach succeeds in correct detection of 24 out of 29 different polyps. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Multivariate Pseudo Wigner Ville Distribution Based Emotion Detection From Electrical Activity of Brain
    (IEEE, 2017) Ozel, Pinar; Akan, Aydin; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Recently, there has been a rapid development in multivariate signal analysis to determine joint oscillations for multiple data channels. The emotion elicitation in an electroencephalogram (EEG) is a novel area to evaluate methods for emotional differences from brain signals. In this paper, utilizing the idea of joint instantaneous frequency of multivariate data, a multivariate extension of pseudo Wigner distribution is used for emotion recognition from EEG signals, in which different window sizes are employed to interpret the results. As a preliminary study, the best results are obtained as 90%, 75%, 65% in terms of valence, arousal and dominance scale respectively for larger window size.

    Examining Tongue Movement Intentions in EEG With Machine and Deep Learning: An Approach for Dysphagia Rehabilitation
    (IEEE, 2024-08-26) Aslan, Sevgi Gokce; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Dysphagia, a common swallowing disorder particularly prevalent among older adults and often associated with neurological conditions, significantly affects individuals' quality of life by negatively impacting their eating habits, physical health, and social interactions. This study investigates the potential of brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies in dysphagia rehabilitation, focusing specifically on motor imagery paradigms based on EEG signals and integration with machine learning and deep learning methods for tongue movement. Traditional machine learning classifiers, such as K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree, Naive Bayes, Random Forest, AdaBoost, Bagging, Kernel, and Neural Network were employed in discrimination of rest and imagination phases of EEG signals obtained from 30 healthy subjects. Scalogram images obtained using continuous wavelet transform of EEG signals corresponding to the rest and imagination phases of the experiment were used as the input images to the CNN architecture. As a result, KNN and SVM, exhibited lower accuracy rates compared to ensemble methods like AdaBoost and Random Forest, which are effective in handling complex datasets. Additionally, a deep learning approach achieved an accuracy rate of 83%. Overall, this study demonstrates the promising role of BCI technologies and machine learning techniques in dysphagia rehabilitation.

    Emotional State Analysis From EEG Signals via Noise-Assisted Multivariate Empirical Mode Decomposition Method
    (IEEE, 2017) Ozel, Pinar; Akan, Aydin; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Emotional state analysis is an interdisciplinary arena because of the many parameters that encompass the complex neural structure and electrical signals of the brain and in terms of emotional state differences. In recent years, emotional state data have been examined by using data-driven methods such as Empirical Mode Decomposition as well as classical time-frequency methods. Although Empirical Mode Decomposition has many advantages, it has disadvantages such as being designed for univariate data, prone to mode mixing, and providing signal via a sufficient number of the local extrema. To overcome these disadvantages, in this study, the Noise-Assisted Multivariate Empirical Mode Decomposition has been shown to classify the emotional state using electroencephalographic signals.

    Detection of Epileptic Seizures With Tangent Space Mapping Features of EEG Signals
    (IEEE, 2021-11-04) Altindis, Fatih; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Detection of epileptic seizures from EEG signals is well-studied topic for the last couple of decades. Lately, automated signal processing and machine learning methods were developed to detect epileptic seizures. However, most of the methods are tailored to subjects and require fine tuning of many parameters. In this study, we proposed to use Riemannian geometry-based signal processing method that already showed superior performance on brain-computer interface problems, to extract features. We showed that tangent space mapping features of EEG signals can be used to detect seizures with high accuracy and precision.

    Beyin Dalgalari ve Baş Hareketiyle Gerçek Zamanli Robotik Araba Kontrolü
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-11) Oztürk, 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. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Brain Computer Interface (BCI) technology is used to help patients who do not have control over motor neurons such as ALS or paralyzed patients, to communicate with outer world. This work aims to classify motor imageries using real-time EEG dataset, which was published by Graz University, Austria. The dataset consists of two-channel EEG signals of right-hand movement imagery and left-hand movement imagery of 8 subjects. There are a total of 120 motor imagery trials (60 left and 60 right) EEG signals recorded from each subject. EEG signals are filtered and feature vectors were extracted that consist of 24, 32 and 40 relative band power values (RBPV). In this work, feature vectors classified by three different methods, linear discriminant analysis (LDA), K nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machines (SVM). Results show that best performance was achieved by 24 RBPV feature vector and LDA classification method. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Emotion Recognition Classification in EEG Signals Using Multivariate Synchrosqueezing Transform
    (IEEE, 2017-10) Ozel, Pinar; Akan, Aydin; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Electrophysiological data processing can take place both in time and in frequency domains as well as in the joint time-frequency domain. Short Time Fourier Transform and Wavelet Transform are commonly used time-frequency analysis methods. The limitations of these methods initiated the use of methods such as synchrosqueezing and multivariate synchrosqueezing methods. In our proposed method 88.9%, 77.8%, 80.6% accuracy rates were obtained respectively for the valence, activation and dominance parameters using and multivariate synchrosqueezing methods and support vector machines(SVM) which yields better results than most of the other methods mentioned in the literature.

    Emotional State Sensing by Using Hybrid Multivariate Empirical Mode Decomposition and Synchrosqueezing Transform
    (IEEE, 2018-11) Ozel, Pinar; Akan, Aydin; Yilmaz, Bulent
    In recent years, utilizing Hilbert-based time frequency methods in emotional state sensing research attracted attention in the brain computer interfaces. Primarily, Hilbert Transform-based empirical mode decomposition (EMD) was found to be suitable for emotional state modeling studies. In more recent studies, models of emotional state recognition were proposed in which the classification was implemented by using the features obtained after applying the time, frequency, and time frequency domain methods to intrinsic mode functions achieved by operating EMD. In this study, an analysis of emotional state recognition is proposed by using the features of the synchrosqueezing coefficients obtained in the classification process after applying the Synchrosqueezing Transform to intrinsic mode functions achieved by using Multivariate EMD. As a result, EEG data available in the DEAP database were categorized as low and high for valence, activation, and dominance dimensions, and 4 different classifiers were utilized in the classification process. The most satisfying ratios of valence, activation and dominance were attained 76%, 68%, and 68% respectively.
