Conference Object Offer Referees Suggester for the Journal Editors(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-06) Cos¸kun, Mustafa; Hacilar, Hilal; Gezer, Cengiz; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı; Coskun, MustafaAssigning appropriate referees to a journal or conference paper is a vital task for many reasons, including enhancing the journal venue quality and reliance, fair judgement of the papers, and among many others. While assigning the referees to the papers, the editors of a journal venue need to find suitable referees who are both related to field of the given paper and have no conflict of interest with the authors of the paper. Editorial-wise this referee assignment process is implemented in a hand-crafted manner, i.e., the editor needs to find the most suitable referees to the paper via a search engine and manually refines the all unrelated and having conflict of interest authors to the paper authors. Clearly, such a manual referee searching process is tedious and time consuming for the editors.In this paper, we present an alternate automated approach for assigning referees problem using intrinsic random walk with restart proximity measure. In our experiments based on a comprehensive DBLP networks, we show that our approach, called OFFER, significantly outperforms state-of-the-art the random walk with restart based method. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 20Machine Learning Analysis of Inflammatory Bowel Disease-Associated Metagenomics Dataset(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Hacilar, Hilal; Nalbantoĝlu, Özkan Ufuk; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuThere is an ongoing interplay between humans and our microbial communities. The microorganisms living in our gut produce energy from our food, strengthen our immune system, break down foreign products, and release metabolites and hormones, which are significant for regulating our physiology. The shifts away from this 'healthy' gut microbiome is considered to be associated with many diseases. Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are gut related disorders affecting the intestinal tract. Although some metagenomics studies are conducted on IBD recently, our current understanding of the precise relationships between the human gut microbiome and IBD remains limited. In this regard, the use of state-of-the art machine learning approaches became popular to address a variety of questions like early diagnosis of certain diseases using human microbiota. In this study, we investigate which subset of gut microbiota are mostly associated with IBD and if disease-associated biomarkers can be detected via applying state-of-the art machine learning algorithms and proper feature selection methods. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 52Evaluation of Classification Algorithms, Linear Discriminant Analysis and a New Hybrid Feature Selection Methodology for the Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-12) Kolukisa, Burak; Hacilar, Hilal; Göy, Gökhan; Kus, Mustafa; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Aral, Atilla; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıAccording to the World Health Organization (WHO), 31% of the world's total deaths in 2016 (17.9 million) was due to cardiovascular diseases (CVD). With the development of information technologies, it has become possible to predict whether people have heart diseases or not by checking certain physical and biochemical values at a lower cost. In this study, we have evalated a set of different classification algorithms, linear discriminant analysis and proposed a new hybrid feature selection methodology for the diagnosis of coronary heart diseases (CHD). Throughout this research effort, using three publicly available Heart Disease diagnosis datasets (UCI Machine Learning Repository), we have conducted comparative performance evaluations in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F-measure, AUC and running time. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Accelerated Artificial Bee Colony Optimization for Cost-Sensitive Neural Networks in Multi-Class Problems(Wiley, 2025-04-10) Hacilar, Hilal; Dedeturk, Bilge Kagan; Ozmen, Mihrimah; Celik, Mehlika Eraslan; Gungor, Vehbi CagriMetaheuristics are advanced problem-solving techniques that develop efficient algorithms to address complex challenges, while neural networks are algorithms inspired by the structure and function of the human brain. Combining these approaches enables the resolution of complex optimization problems that traditional methods struggle to solve. This study presents a novel approach integrating the ABC algorithm with ANNs for weight optimization. The method is further enhanced by vectorization and parallelization techniques on both CPU and GPU to improve computational efficiency. Additionally, this study introduces a cost-sensitive fitness function tailored for multi-class classification to optimize results by considering relationships between target class levels. It validates these advancements in two critical applications: network intrusion detection and earthquake damage estimation. Notably, this study makes a significant contribution to earthquake damage assessment by leveraging machine learning algorithms and metaheuristics to enhance predictive models and decision-making in disaster response. By addressing the dynamic nature of earthquake damage, this research fills a critical gap in existing models and broadens the understanding of how machine learning and metaheuristics can improve disaster response strategies. In both domains, the ABC-ANN implementation yields promising results, particularly in earthquake damage estimation, where the cost-sensitive approach demonstrates satisfactory outcomes in macro-F1 and accuracy. The best results for macro-F1, weighted-F1, and overall accuracy provides best results with the UNSW-NB15 and earthquake datasets, showing values of 64%, 72%, 68%, and 60%, 80%, and 79%, respectively. Comparative performance evaluations reveal that the proposed parallel ABC-ANN model, incorporating the novel cost-sensitive fitness function and enhanced by vectorization and parallelization techniques, significantly reduces training time and outperforms state-of-the-art methods in terms of macro-F1 and accuracy in both network intrusion detection and earthquake damage estimation.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1A Federated Learning Framework for Classifying the Images in Ultrasonic Nondestructive Testing(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024-10-26) Gulsen, Abdulkadir; Hacilar, Hilal; Kolukisa, Burak; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuUltrasonic inspection is a critical technique in non-destructive testing that ensures the safety and integrity of the material by detecting internal defects. Defect classification within this context is vital for preventing failures and extending the lifespan of materials. However, the advancement of ultrasonic testing technology is hindered by a scarcity of publicly available, realistic datasets, which are essential for developing accurate models. To address these challenges, this paper introduces a Federated Learning (FL) framework employing a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model for defect classification using ultrasonic inspection images. This innovative approach allows for the decentralized training of models on private datasets without the need for data exchange, thus preserving data privacy. Our comparative analysis demonstrates that the FL achieves performance comparable to traditional methods while maintaining the confidentiality of sensitive information. The framework also proves to be robust and scalable with an increase in the number of participating clients. This pioneering study highlights the potential of FL in transforming ultrasonic defect classification and suggests possibilities for its application in other areas of non-destructive testing where publicly available datasets are scarce. These findings would encourage researchers to develop a federated platform for enhanced collaboration and explore advanced CNN architectures to improve training efficiency. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
