Article Citation - Scopus: 2Improving Short-Term Memory Performance of Healthy Young Males Using Alpha Band Neurofeedback(International Society for Neurofeedback and Research, 2019-03-24) Gökşin, Barış; Yilmaz, Bulent; İçöz, KutayTo examine whether it was possible to improve short-term memory performance of healthy participants by increasing relative alpha band power (7–11.5 Hz) using neurofeedback, we first converted a commercial EEG device (EmotivEpoc) to a neurofeedback tool and collected data from 11 healthy Turkish male graduate students in five neurofeedback sessions. Before and after neurofeedback training, a memorization task using 10 English words and their Turkish meanings was applied to all participants. The results indicated that 6 out of 11 participants were able to enhance their relative alpha band power with respect to other bands in the frequency spectrum during neurofeedback sessions. Although there was no obvious improvement in their short-term memory performance, we may conclude that neurofeedback training was beneficial for the participants to focus their minds consciously. However, it is not easy to mention that neurofeedback training certainly improved or was irrelevant with short-term memory performance. This study is important in the sense that for such a focused group the use of a commercial, customized low-cost EEG device was shown to be feasible for neurofeedback training sessions. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - Scopus: 5Hyperplastic and Tubular Polyp Classification Using Machine Learning and Feature Selection(Elsevier B.V., 2024) Doǧan, Refika Sultan; Akay, Ebru; Doǧan, Serkan; Yilmaz, BulentPurpose: The aim of this study is to develop an effective approach for differentiating between hyperplastic and tubular adenoma colon polyps, which is one of the most difficult tasks in colonoscopy procedures. The main research challenge is how to improve the classification of these polyp subtypes applying various focusing levels on the polyp images, data preprocessing approaches, and classification algorithms. Methods: This study employed 202 colonoscopy videos from a total of 201 patients, focusing on 59 videos containing hyperplastic and tubular adenoma polyps. Manually extract key frames and several feature extraction and classification techniques were applied. The influence of different datasets with various focuses as well as data preprocessing steps on the performance of classification was examined, and AUC values were calculated using ten classifiers. Results: The study discovered that the optimal dataset, data preprocessing method, and classification algorithm all had significant effects on classification results. The Random Forest model with the Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) feature selection approach, for example, consistently outperformed other models and achieved the highest AUC value of 0.9067. In terms of accuracy, F1 score, recall, and AUC, the suggested model outperformed a gastroenterologist, nevertheless precision remained slightly lower. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the importance of dataset selection, data preprocessing, and feature selection in enhancing the classification of difficult colon polyp subtypes. The suggested model offers a promising model for the clinical differentiation of hyperplastic and tubular adenoma polyps, potentially improving diagnostic accuracy in gastroenterology. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
