Conference Object Security Through Digital Twin-Based Intrusion Detection: A Swat Dataset Analysis(IEEE, 2023-10-18) Bozdal, MehmetDigital twin, as a virtual replica of physical entity, offer valuable insights into Industrial Control System (ICS) behavior and characteristics. Leveraging the convergence of digital twins and cybersecurity, this research explores its role in securing critical infrastructure, using the Secure Water Treatment (SWaT) system as a case study. Existing intrusion detection systems (IDS) for SWaT encounter challenges related to requiring huge amounts of a dataset for training, being unable to adopt high data dimensionality, and adaptability to emerging threats. To address these issues, a hybrid digital twin model is proposed, combining physics-based models and data-driven approaches. This model facilitates precise attack localization and explainable IDS outcomes. The method exhibits promising capabilities for enhancing critical infrastructure security and adapting to evolving cyber threats. Experimental results demonstrate the ability to detect eight out of nine attack types.Master Thesis QOS-AWARE DOWNLINK SCHEDULING ALGORITHM FOR LTE NETWORKS: A CASE STUDY ON EDGE USERS(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, 2016) UYAN, OSMAN GÖKHAN4G/LTE (Long Term Evolution) is the state of the art wireless mobile broadband technology. It allows users to take advantage of high internet speeds. It makes use of the OFDM technology to offer high speed, which supplies the system resources both in time and frequency domain. The allocation of these resources is operated by a scheduling algorithm running on the base station. In this thesis, we investigate the performance of existing downlink scheduling algorithms in two ways. First we look at the performance of the algorithms in terms of throughput and fairness metrics. Second, we suggest a new fairness criterion, QoS-aware fairness which accepts that the system is fair if it can supply the users with the packet delays that they demand, and we evaluate the performance of the algorithms according to this metric. We also propose a new algorithm according to these two metrics, which especially increase the throughput gained by the edge users, the QoS-fairness, and classical fairness of the system without causing a big degradation in cell throughput when compared to other schedulers.Review Değişen Yükseköğretim Sistemini Sosyokültürel ve Mekânsal Bağlamlarda Yeniden Düşünmek(DEOMED PUBL, ISTANBUL, GUR SOK 7-B, FIKIRTEPE 34720 KADIKOY, ISTANBUL, 00000, TURKEY, 2020) Ayten, Asim Mustafa; Gover, Ibrahim HakanEducation and research are vital for social development and progress. The changing sociocultural structures and new needs have resulted in some important functional changes in higher education systems with a deep impact on universities serving these needs at the highest level. Besides experiencing these functional changes, the universities today have become spaces of socialization with their social, cultural and sports facilities, replacing their traditional spatial role of offering education only. The local dynamics changing with globalization have now reshaped the global and local roles of universities, highlighting the added value they provide to the society. Sociocultural changes trigger all these functional and structural changes in universities. Therefore, sociocultural factors and their importance should not be ignored in a changing higher education system. In this study, the impact of sociocultural factors with their related spatial structures on world higher education system will be analyzed within their historical contexts, and some suggestions for future universities will be offered considering the current changes. In the first part of the study, the changes in societies and universities will be presented within the historical context. In the second part, the spatial forms and structures of universities will be discussed. In the third part, the catalytic effects of the specific sociocultural factors will be highlighted and elaborated on. Finally, some suggestions will be made for the universities of the future in the light of the current situation and the data available.Article Dayım: Bir İnsanoğlunun Portresi(TURKISH LIBRARIANS ASSOC, YENISEHIR, NECATIBEY CAD, ELGIN SOK, PO BOX 175, ANKARA, 06440, TURKEY, 2019) Donmez, Rasim OzgurThis is a memoir written by his nephew about our colleague Ali Can, who passed away in last July.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Π-Conjugated Donor-Acceptor Small Molecule Thin-Films on Gold Electrodes for Reducing the Metal Work-Function(Elsevier Science SA, 2016-10) Azum, Naved; Taib, Layla Ahmad; Al Angari, Yasser Mohammed; Asiri, Abdullah M.; Denti, Mitchel; Zhao, Wei; Facchetti, AntonioThis paper reports the design, facile synthesis and purification of four pi-conjugated donor-acceptor small molecules comprising heteroaromatic units, DA-1-DA-4, for surface and electronic structure modification of gold thin film. These molecules were characterized by H-1/C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Morphologically smooth thin-films (similar to 5 nm) of DA-1-DA-4 were deposited onto Au thin films via thermal evaporation and characterized by atomic force microscopy, theta-2 theta X-ray diffraction and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. The work functions of the small molecule coated Au electrodes are shifted to lower energies by similar to 0.1-03 eV, compared to that of the bare Au film measured as a reference. The vapor-deposition of structurally,simple small molecules developed here shows great promise as a facile approach to reduce gold work function for electron injection/extraction between organic semiconductors and Au contacts in various opto-electronic devices.

Effects of the number of ethylene glycol units in OEGMA, chain length of hydrophobic P4VP block, pH, concentration and temperature on the solution behavior of the copolymers were investigated comprehensively. Copolymer chains formed micelles at pH values higher than 5 whereas unimeric polymers were observed to exist below pH 5, owing to the repulsion between positively charged P4VP blocks. The size of the micelles was dependent on the relative length of blocks, P4VP and POEGMA. Thermo-responsive properties of copolymers were investigated depending on the pH and length of P4VP block. The increase in the length of P4VP block decreased the LCST substantially at pH 7. At pH 3, LCST of copolymers shifted to higher temperatures due to the increased interaction of copolymers with water through positively charged P4VP block. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

A better understanding of the interactions between miRNAs and their mRNA targets will provide a better understanding of the complex biological processes that occur during carcinogenesis. Increased efforts to reveal these interactions have led to the development of a variety of tools to detect and understand these interactions. We have recently described a machine learning approach miRcorrNet, based on grouping and scoring (ranking) groups of genes, where each group is associated with a miRNA and the group members are genes with expression patterns that are correlated with this specific miRNA. The miRcorrNet tool requires two types of -omics data, miRNA and mRNA expression profiles, as an input file. In this study we describe miRModuleNet, which groups mRNA (genes) that are correlated with each miRNA to form a star shape, which we identify as a miRNA-mRNA regulatory module. A scoring procedure is then applied to each module to further assess their contribution in terms of classification. An important output of miRModuleNet is that it provides a hierarchical list of significant miRNA-mRNA regulatory modules. miRModuleNet was further validated on external datasets for their disease associations, and functional enrichment analysis was also performed. The application of miRModuleNet aids the identification of functional relationships between significant biomarkers and reveals essential pathways involved in cancer pathogenesis.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 24miRdisNET: Discovering MicroRNA Biomarkers That Are Associated With Diseases Utilizing Biological Knowledge-Based Machine Learning(Frontiers Media S.A., 2023-01-12) Jabeer, Amhar; Temiz, Mustafa; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, MalikDuring recent years, biological experiments and increasing evidence have shown that MicroRNAs play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of human complex diseases. Therefore, to diagnose and treat human complex diseases, it is necessary to reveal the associations between a specific disease and related miRNAs. Although current computational models based on machine learning attempt to determine miRNA-disease associations, the accuracy of these models need to be improved, and candidate miRNA-disease relations need to be evaluated from a biological perspective. In this paper, we propose a computational model named miRdisNET to predict potential miRNA-disease associations. Specifically, miRdisNET requires two types of data, i.e., miRNA expression profiles and known disease-miRNA associations as input files. First, we generate subsets of specific diseases by applying the grouping component. These subsets contain miRNA expressions with class labels associated with each specific disease. Then, we assign an importance score to each group by using a machine learning method for classification. Finally, we apply a modeling component and obtain outputs. One of the most important outputs of miRdisNET is the performance of miRNA-disease prediction. Compared with the existing methods, miRdisNET obtained the highest AUC value of .9998. Another output of miRdisNET is a list of significant miRNAs for disease under study. The miRNAs identified by miRdisNET are validated via referring to the gold-standard databases which hold information on experimentally verified MicroRNA-disease associations. miRdisNET has been developed to predict candidate miRNAs for new diseases, where miRNA-disease relation is not yet known. In addition, miRdisNET presents candidate disease-disease associations based on shared miRNA knowledge.

The advancements in high throughput technologies allowed to generate mRNA and microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles; and the integrative analysis of these profiles allowed to uncover the functional effects of RNA expression in complex diseases, such as cancer. Several researches attempt to integrate miRNA and mRNA expression profiles using statistical methods such as Pearson correlation, and then combine it with enrichment analysis. In this study, we developed a novel tool called miRcorrNet, which performs machine learning-based integration to analyze miRNA and mRNA gene expression profiles. miRcorrNet groups mRNAs based on their correlation to miRNA expression levels and hence it generates groups of target genes associated with each miRNA. Then, these groups are subject to a rank function for classification. We have evaluated our tool using miRNA and mRNA expression profiling data downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and performed comparative evaluation with existing tools. In our experiments we show that miRcorrNet performs as good as other tools in terms of accuracy (reaching more than 95% AUC value). Additionally, miRcorrNet includes ranking steps to separate two classes, namely case and control, which is not available in other tools. We have also evaluated the performance of miRcorrNet using a completely independent dataset. Moreover, we conducted a comprehensive literature search to explore the biological functions of the identified miRNAs. We have validated our significantly identified miRNA groups against known databases, which yielded about 90% accuracy. Our results suggest that miRcorrNet is able to accurately prioritize pan-cancer regulating high-confidence miRNAs. miRcorrNet tool and all other supplementary files are available at https://github.com/ malikyousef/miRcorrNet. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - Scopus: 1eTNT: Enhanced Textnettopics With Filtered LDA Topics and Sequential Forward / Backward Topic Scoring Approaches(Science and Information Organization, 2024) Voskergian, Daniel; Jayousi, Rashid; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuTextNetTopics is a novel text classification-based topic modelling approach that focuses on topic selection rather than individual word selection to train a machine learning algorithm. However, one key limitation of TextNetTopics is its scoring component, which evaluates each topic in isolation and ranks them accordingly, ignoring the potential relationships between topics. In addition, the chosen topics may contain redundant or irrelevant features, potentially increasing the feature set size and introducing noise that can degrade the overall model performance. To address these limitations and improve the classification performance, this study introduces an enhancement to TextNetTopics. eTNT integrates two novel scoring approaches: Sequential Forward Topic Scoring (SFTS) and Sequential Backward Topic Scoring (SBTS), which consider topic interactions by assessing sets of topics simultaneously. Moreover, it incorporates a filtering component that aims to enhance topics' quality and discriminative power by removing non-informative features from each topic using Random Forest feature importance values. These integrations aim to streamline the topic selection process and enhance classifier efficiency for text classification. The results obtained from the WOS-5736, LitCovid, and MultiLabel datasets provide valuable insights into the superior effectiveness of eTNT compared to its counterpart, TextNetTopics. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
