    Study of Helical Antenna Endowing Short Wire Length and Compact Structure for High-Frequency Operations and Its Exclusive Manufacturing Process
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2023-03-01) Aslan, Melih; Sik, Kaan; Güzelkara, Izzet; Özdür, Ibrahim Tuna; Kilic, Veli Tayfun
    In this paper a study of a helical antenna resonating at high-frequency (HF) band with a very compact structure is reported. The designed antenna's S11 parameter magnitude change with frequency was calculated for different geometrical parameters. For each case, first, only a single parameter was changed. Then for a fair comparison, multiple parameters were changed simultaneously while the total wire length was set to be constant. Also, shifts in resonance frequencies and variations in -10 dB bandwidths were investigated. Our results show that resonance behaviour changes distinctively with the geometrical parameters and it allows shortening of the antenna wire length. For the designed antenna, the resonances shift to lower frequencies and -10 dB bandwidths around the resonances decrease as the winding wire thickness, number of turns, and turn radius increase. Whereas as the turn spacing increases the resonances shift to higher frequencies and -10 dB bandwidths widen, although the total wire length of the antenna increases. To verify the simulation results, the designed antenna was fabricated with an exclusive manufacturing process and characterized. The measurement results are in good agreement with the simulation results. It demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed manufacturing technique, which is new in the literature and enables accurate and rigid antenna fabrication with simple and low-cost steps.

    Solutions to Nonlinear Second-Order Three-Point Boundary Value Problems of Dynamic Equations on Time Scales
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-05-29) Dogan, Abdulkadir
    In this paper, we consider existence criteria of three positive solutions of three-point boundary value problems for p-Laplacian dynamic equations on time scales. To show our main results, we apply the well-known Leggett-Williams fixed point theorem. Moreover, we present some results for the existence of single and multiple positive solutions for boundary value problems on time scales, by applying fixed point theorems in cones. The conditions we used in the paper are different from those in [Dogan A. On the existence of positive solutions for the one-dimensional p-Laplacian boundary value problems on time scales. Dynam Syst Appl 2015; 24: 295-304].

    Prediction of Preference and Effect of Music on Preference: A Preliminary Study on Electroencephalography from Young Women
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-03-01) Yilmaz, Bulent; Gazeloglu, Cengiz; Altindis, Fatih
    Neuromarketing is the application of the neuroscientific approaches to analyze and understand economically relevant behavior. In this study, the effect of loud and rhythmic music in a sample neuromarketing setup is investigated. The second aim was to develop an approach in the prediction of preference using only brain signals. In this work, 19-channel EEG signals were recorded and two experimental paradigms were implemented: no music/silence and rhythmic, loud music using a headphone, while viewing women shoes. For each 10-sec epoch, normalized power spectral density (PSD) of EEG data for six frequency bands was estimated using the Burg method. The effect of music was investigated by comparing the mean differences between music and no music groups using independent two-sample t-test. In the preference prediction part sequential forward selection, k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) and the support vector machines (SVM), and 5-fold cross-validation approaches were used. It is found that music did not affect like decision in any of the power bands, on the contrary, music affected dislike decisions for all bands with no exceptions. Furthermore, the accuracies obtained in preference prediction study were between 77.5 and 82.5% for k-NN and SVM techniques. The results of the study showed the feasibility of using EEG signals in the investigation of the music effect on purchasing behavior and the prediction of preference of an individual.

    Performance Analysis of Hamming Code for WSN-Based Smart Grid Applications
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2018) Yigit, Melike; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri; Boluk, Pinar
    Many methods have been employed to detect, compare, and correct errors to increase communication reliability and efficiency in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, to the best of our knowledge, no existing study has compared the performance of error control codes by using different modulation techniques in a smart grid communication environment when multichannel scheduling is used. This paper presents a detailed performance evaluation and makes a comparison of different modulation techniques, such as frequency shift keying (FSK), differential phase shift keying (DPSK), binary phase shift keying (BPSK), and offset quadrature phase-shift keying (OQPSK), using Hamming codes in a 500-kV line-of-sight substation smart grid environment with multichannel scheduling. A link-quality-aware routing algorithm is used as a routing protocol and a log-normal shadowing channel is employed as a channel model. Simulations are performed in MATLAB and the performance of the Hamming code with various modulation techniques is compared with the results obtained without using any error correction codes for throughput, delay, and bit error rate. The results show that the performance of the Hamming code with OQPSK modulation is better than its performance with other modulation techniques. Moreover, the results show that the performance of Hamming code improves with multichannel scheduling for all modulation techniques.

    Optimizing Parameters for Efficient Computation With Fully Homomorphic Encryption Schemes
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2025-03-21) Karaagac, Cavidan Yakupoglu; Rohloff, Kurt; Yakupoğlu Karaağaç, Cavidan; Yakupoglu, Cavidan
    In this study, we aim to provide a parameter selection approach for the BFVrns scheme, one of the prominent fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) schemes. Selecting parameters for lattice-based FHE schemes poses a practical challenge for both experts and nonexperts. To solve this problem, we introduce a hybrid approach that combines theoretical approach with experimental analysis. First, we employ regression analysis to examine the impact of parameters on both performance and security. The varying behavior of FHE parameters in terms of performance, security, and ciphertext expansion factor (CEF) makes parameter selection more challenging. To address this issue, we employ a multi-objective optimization algorithm to determine the optimal parameter set for performance, CEF, and security simultaneously. As a result of this optimization, we obtain an improved parameter set that enhances performance at a given security level while ensuring correctness and resistance to lattice-based attacks, maintaining at least 128-bit security. Our results achieve an average similar to 5x reduction in CEF and generally better performance compared to the parameter sets in a previous BFVrns study. Our approach serves as a semi-automated parameter selection method for the PALISADE homomorphic encryption library, a widely recognized FHE library. This study sets a precedent for other FHE libraries.

    Multiple Positive Solutions of Nonlinear M-Point Dynamic Equations for P-Laplacian on Time Scales
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2016) Dogan, Abdulkadir
    In this paper, we study the existence of positive solutions of a nonlinear m-point p-Laplacian dynamic equation (phi(p) (x(Delta)(t)))(del) w(t)f (t,x(t), x(Delta)(t)) = 0, t(1) < m-1 X(ti) - B-0 (Sigma m-1 i=2 a(i)x(Delta)(t(i))) = 0, x(Delta) (tm) = 0, or x(Delta)(t(1)) - 0, x(t(m)) + B-1(Sigma m-1 i=2 b(i)s(Delta)(t(i))) -0, where phi(p)(s) =vertical bar s vertical bar(P-2) s, p > 1. Sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions of the problem are obtained by using a fixed point theorem. The interesting point is the nonlinear term f is involved with the first order derivative explicitly. As an application, an example is given to illustrate the result.

    Modified Self-Adaptive Local Search Algorithm for a Biobjective Permutation Flow Shop Scheduling Problem
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2019-07-26) Alabas Uslu, Cigdem; Dengiz, Berna; Aglan, Canan; Sabuncuoglu, Ihsan; Uslu, Çiğdem Alabaş
    Interest in multiobjective permutation flow shop scheduling (PFSS) has increased in the last decade to ensure effective resource utilization. This study presents a modified self-adaptive local search (MSALS) algorithm for the biobjective permutation flow shop scheduling problem where both makespan and total flow time objectives are minimized. Compared to existing sophisticated heuristic algorithms, MSALS is quite simple to apply to different biobjective PFSS instances without requiring effort or time for parameter tuning. Computational experiments showed that MSALS is either superior to current heuristics for Pareto sets or is incomparable due to other performance indicators of multiobjective problems.

    Lung Cancer Subtype Differentiation From Positron Emission Tomography Images
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2020-01-27) Ayyildiz, Oguzhan; Aydin, Zafer; Yilmaz, Bulent; Karacavus, Seyhan; Senkaya, Kubra; Icer, Semra; Kaya, Eser; Taşdemir, Arzu
    Lung cancer is one of the deadly cancer types, and almost 85% of lung cancers are nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In the present study we investigated classification and feature selection methods for the differentiation of two subtypes of NSCLC, namely adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC). The major advances in understanding the effects of therapy agents suggest that future targeted therapies will be increasingly subtype specific. We obtained positron emission tomography (PET) images of 93 patients with NSCLC, 39 of which had ADC while the rest had SqCC. Random walk segmentation was applied to delineate three-dimensional tumor volume, and 39 texture features were extracted to grade the tumor subtypes. We examined 11 classifiers with two different feature selection methods and the effect of normalization on accuracy. The classifiers we used were the k-nearest-neighbor, logistic regression, support vector machine, Bayesian network, decision tree, radial basis function network, random forest, AdaBoostM1, and three stacking methods. To evaluate the prediction accuracy we performed a leave-one-out cross-validation experiment on the dataset. We also considered optimizing certain hyperparameters of these models by performing 10-fold cross-validation separately on each training set. We found that the stacking ensemble classifier, which combines a decision tree, AdaBoostM1, and logistic regression methods by a metalearner, was the most accurate method for detecting subtypes of NSCLC, and normalization of feature sets improved the accuracy of the classification method.

    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2020-05-08) Dogan, Abdulkadir
    In this paper, we investigate the existence of positive solutions for nonlinear multipoint boundary value problems for p-Laplacian dynamic equations on time scales with the delta derivative of the nonlinear term. Sufficient assumptions are obtained for existence of at least twin or arbitrary even positive solutions to some boundary value problems. Our results are achieved by appealing to the fixed point theorems of Avery-Henderson. As an application, an example to demonstrate our results is given.
