Article Forecasting the Consumer Price Index in Türkiye Using Machine Learning Models: A Comparative Analysis(Gazi Univ, 2025-09-01) Söylemez, İsmet; Ünlü, Ramazan; Nalici, Mehmet ErenThis study utilizes machine learning models to forecast Türkiye's Consumer Price Index (CPI), thereby addressing a critical gap in inflation prediction methodologies. The central research problem involves the forecasting of CPI in a volatile economic environment, which is essential for informed policymaking. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of three machine learning models, such as Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector Machine (SVM), in forecasting CPI over periods ranging from one to six months, utilizing data from 2012 to 2024. The study's unique contribution lies in the application of the \"SelectKBest\" method, which identifies the most relevant indices, thereby enhancing the efficiency of the models. An ensemble method, Averaging Voting, is also employed to combine the strengths of these models, producing more accurate and robust predictions. The findings indicate that while the RF model consistently generates the most accurate forecasts across all shifts, the SVM model demonstrates a particular strength in the domain of short-term predictions. The ensemble model demonstrates a substantial performance improvement, with a R2 value of 0.962 for one-month ahead of estimates and 0.956 for five-month forecasts. This combined approach has been shown to outperform individual models, offering a more reliable framework for CPI forecasting. The findings offer valuable insights for economic policymakers, enabling more precise and stable inflation predictions in Türkiye.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Noise-Assisted Multivariate Empirical Mode Decomposition Based Emotion Recognition(Istanbul Univ-Cerrahapasa, 2018-08-03) Ozel, Pinar; Akan, Aydin; Yilmaz, BulentEmotion state detection or emotion recognition cuts across different disciplines because of the many parameters that embrace the brain's complex neural structure, signal processing methods, and pattern recognition algorithms. Currently, in addition to classical time-frequency methods, emotional state data have been processed via data-driven methods such as empirical mode decomposition (EMD). Despite its various benefits, EMD has several drawbacks: it is intended for univariate data; it is prone to mode mixing; and the number of local extrema must be enough before the EMD process can begin. To overcome these problems, this study employs a multivariate EMD and its noise-assisted version in the emotional state classification of electroencephalogram signals.
