Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1The Identification of Discriminative Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Sets for the Classification of Behçet's Disease(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Görmez, Yasin; Işik, Yunus Emre; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuBehçet's disease is a long-term multisystem inflammatory disorder, characterized by recurrent attacks affecting several organs. As the genotyping individuals get cheaper and easier following the developments in genomic technologies, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) emerged. By this means, via studying big-sized case-control groups for a specific disease, potential genetic variations, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are identified. Although several genetic risk factors are identified for Behçet's disease with the help of these studies via scanning around a million of SNPs, these variations could only explain up to 20% of the disease's genetic risk. In this study, for Behçet's disease classification, via comparing all the SNPs genotyped in GWAS, with the SNPs selected via using genetic knowledge, gain ratio and information gain; both reduction in the feature size and improvement in the classification accuracy is aimed. Also, using different classification algorithms such as random forest, k-nearest neighbour and logistic regression, their effects on the classification accuracy are investigated. Our results showed that compared to other feature selection methods, with at least 81% success rate, the selection of the SNPs using the genetic information (of their GWAS p-values, indicating the significance of the SNP against the disease) provides 15% to 42% improvement in all classification algorithms. This improvement is statistically sound. While gain ratio and information gain feature selection techniques yield similar classification accuracies, the models using all SNPs could not exceed 50% accuracies and results in the worst performance. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 8On Comparative Classification of Relevant COVID-19 Tweets(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021-09-15) Bakal, Gokhan; Abar, OrhanDue to the impressive information dissemination power of social networks such as Twitter, people tend to check social networks and Web pages more than other traditional news sources, including newspapers, TV news programs, or radio channels. In that sense, the information carried by the content of the shared social media posts becomes much more considerable. However, most of the posts are commonly either irrelevant or inaccurate. Besides, the more critical case than the correctness of the information is the diffusion speed on Twitter through the reply or retweet actions. These activities make the initial situation even more complicated than itself due to the unregulated nature of the social networks and the lack of an immediate verification mechanism for the correctness of the posts. When we consider the current Covid-19 pandemic period (causing the coronavirus disease), one of the most utilized information resources is Twitter except the official health administration institutions. Thereupon, examining the correctness of the information related to the Covid-19 pandemic by computational techniques (e.g., Data Mining, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning) has been gaining popularity and remains a substantial task. Hence, we mainly focused on analyzing the correctness of the posts related to the current pandemic shared on the Twitter platform. Therefore, the overall goal of this work is to classify the relevant tweets using linear and non-linear machine learning models. We achieved the best F1 performance score (99%) with the neural network model using the unigram features & threshold value of 50 among all model configurations. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Multi-Method Text Summarization: Evaluating Extractive and BART-Based Approaches on CNN/Daily Mail(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025-06-27) Inal, Yasin; Bakal, Gokhan; Esit, MuhammedWith the exponential growth of digital content, efficient text summarization has become increasingly crucial for managing information overload. This paper presents a comprehensive approach to text summarization using both extractive and abstractive methods, implemented on the CNN/Daily Mail dataset. We leverage pre-trained BART (Bidirectional and AutoRegressive Transformers) models and fine-tuning techniques to generate high-quality summaries. Our approach demonstrates significant improvements, with our best model trained on 287 k samples achieving ROUGE-1 F1 scores of 0.4174, ROUGE-2 F1 scores of 0.1932, and ROUGE-L F1 scores of 0.2910. We provide detailed comparisons between extractive methods and various BART model configurations, analyzing the impact of training dataset size and model architecture on summarization quality. Additionally, we share our implementation through an opensource NLP toolkit to facilitate further research and practical applications in the field. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Linear Vs. Non-Linear Embedding Methods in Recommendation Systems(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022-09-07) Gurler, Kerem; Cos¸kun, Mustafa; Karagenc, Safak; Orun, Gokhan; Kuleli Pak, Burcu Kuleli; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı; Coskun, Mustafa; Pak, Burcu KuleliPredicting customer interest in items is very crucial in direct marketing as it can potentially boost sales. Data mining techniques are developed to predict which items a particular user might be interested in based on their purchase history or explicit feedback in form of ratings or comments. Recently, non-linear and linear methods have been developed for this purpose. In this study, we applied Neighborhood based Collaborative Filtering (CF), Matrix Factorization (MF), Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), Neural Graph CF (NGCF) and Light Graph Convolutional Network (LightGCN) on explicit user product rating data which is acquired from the online gaming and mobile entertainment platform called HADI. We compared the results of node embedding methods in terms of Precision@k, Recall@k and NDCG@k values. SVD and LightGCN showed the best test performance and SVD was significantly superior to LightGCN in terms of training speed. To further increase predictive performance of SVD, we have applied classification with Logistic Regression and Deep Random Forest on user and item embeddings created by the SVD. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Identify Commonly Affected Pathways in Psychiatric Diseases(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Bulut, Umit; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuGenome-wide association studies (GWAS) are an extraordinary source of information when it comes to revealing the common variations of human complex diseases. Until now, the large amount of data generated from these studies have not been shown its full potential enough to identify the molecular and functional framework to be able to understand how a molecular system works. Following a more specific perspective, this study focused on the identification of commonly affected pathways of psychiatric diseases. The pathway term as used in molecular biology, depicts a simplified model of a process within the cell or tissue. Lately, several GWAS datasets are publicly available for various disease types such as psychiatric, immune-related, neurodegenerative, cardiovascular and such. A study on each disease and pairwise comparison to understand the behavior of disease and system would be time consuming and exhaustive. Instead of handling the results of these studies one by one, grouping diseases by target points is a more efficient way. This work aims to get one step closer to reveal key points of diseases and target these points to develop personalized medicine approaches. Especially for complex diseases, every drug doesn't show the same effect in every people. This paper contains the definition of molecular pathways, methods to identify disease related pathways, and to find common pathways pairwise in psychiatric diseases. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 22Citation - 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.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 7A Comparative Analysis on Medical Article Classification Using Text Mining & Machine Learning Algorithms(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021-09-15) Kolukisa, Burak; Dedeturk, Bilge Kagan; Dedeturk, Beyhan Adanur; Gulsen, Abdulkadir; Bakal, Gokhan; Guisen, AbdulkadirThe document classification task is one of the widely studied research fields on multiple domains. The core motivation of the classification task is that the manual classification efforts are impractical due to the exponentially growing document volumes. Thus, we densely need to exploit automated computational approaches, such as machine learning models along with data & text mining techniques. In this study, we concentrated on the classification of medical articles specifically on common cancer types, due to the significance of the field and the decent number of available documents of interest. We deliberately targeted MEDLINE articles about common cancer types because most cancer types share a similar literature composition. Therefore, this situation makes the classification effort relatively more complicated. To this end, we built multiple machine learning models, including both traditional and deep learning architectures. We achieved the best performance (R¿82% F score) by the LSTM model. Overall, our results demonstrate a strong effect of exploiting both text mining and machine learning methods to distinguish medical articles on common cancer types. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 13NSEM: Duygu Analizi için Özgün Yıǧınlanmiş Topluluk Yöntemi(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-09) Işik, Yunus Emre; Görmez, Yasin; Kaynar, Oǧuz; Aydin, Zafer; Emre Isik, YunusToday, people often share their ideas, opinions and feelings through forums, social media sites, blogs and similar platforms. For this reason, access to these data has become very easy. Increase in the number of shares makes it possible to analyze and use these data in terms of marketing and politics. However, due to the large number of data, it is impossible that this analysis will be done by humans. Determination of what type of emotion is included automatically is done by sentiment analysis methods. In these methods, the text is defined as a mathematical vector and classified by machine learning methods. Ensemble methods are one of the most important methods used as classifiers in sentiment analysis. In these methods, a classifier error is tried to be solved by another classifier. In sentiment analysis, the feature vector that describes the text is as important as the classifier. Feature vectors obtained using different methods can make mistakes in different places. For this reason, in this study, NSEM is proposed for sentiment analysis, which is a new ensemble method that uses 2 different classifiers and 2 different feature extraction methods. As a result of the analysis, the proposed method is the most successful method with an accuracy rate of 79.1%. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Makine Öǧrenmesi Teknikleri Ile İnternet Servis Saǧlayıcısı için Müşteri Kayıp Tahmini(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020-09) Göy, Gökhan; Kolukisa, Burak; Bahçevan, Cenk Anıl; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıWith the developing technology in every fields, a competitive marketing environment has been arised. In this competitive environment, analyzing customer behavior has become vital. In particular, the ability to easily change any service provider has become very critical for the company to continue its existence. At the same time, the amount of financial resources spent on retaining customers much less than to obtain new clients. In this context, the traditional methods of examining vast amount of data obtained today for establishing decision support systems have lost their validities. In this study, we used a dataset which is provided by TurkNet serving as an internet service provider in Turkey. Various preprocessing steps has performed on this dataset and then classification algorithms ran. Afterwards results have obtained and compared. The results of these experiments analyzed in terms of the area under the curve value. In this context, the most successful classifier algorithm has been determined as the Random Trees algorithm with a value of 0.936. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 6Makine Öğrenmesi Yöntemleri ile Kredi Kartı Sahteciliğinin Tespiti(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-09) Göy, Gökhan; Gezer, Cengiz; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıWith the increase in credit card usage of people, the credit card transactions increase dramatically. It is difficult to identify fraudulent transactions among the vast amount of credit card transactions. Although credit card fraud is limited in number of transactions, it causes serious problems in terms of financial losses for individuals and organizations. Even though large number of studies has been conducted to solve this problem, there is no generally accepted solution. In this paper, a publicly available data set is used. The unbalance problem of the data set was solved by using hybrid sampling methods together. On this data set, comparative performance evaluations have been conducted. Different from other studies, the Area Under the Curve (AUC) metric, which expresses the success in such data sets, has also been used in addition to standard performance metrics. Since it is also important to quickly detect credit card fraud transactions; the running time of different methods is also presented as another performance metric. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
