With the development of computers, the Internet and mobile technologies, different needs have emerged for people and different solutions have been discovered to meet these needs. One of the critical areas which are considered as the main factor in creating the tomorrow of human beings where a careful study should be done is the education and teaching. Many technologies are being used and various methods...
In this study, an embedded system has been developed to provide remote control of dot matrix signboards widely used nowadays. With this developed system, it is possible to control and use one or more signboards anywhere. The developed electronic signboard can be in the desired dimensions by connecting the unit modules in many different forms thanks to the electronic circuit realized for the dot matrix...
In this study, improved antlion optimization algo-rithm (IALO) is presented. The antlion optimization algorithm (ALO) is an heuristic optimization algorithm based on modeling random walks of ants and hunting ants by antlions. The random walk model of ALO and the IALO revealed by improvements in the selection method have been tested with benchmark functions with different characteristics from the literature...
Convolutional neural network based methods have provided great success in image classification and object detection tasks. However object detection, unlike the image classification task, requires much more computational intensities and energy consumption. As a result, object detection methods are difficult to integrate into embedded systems with limited resources. In this article, we propose a real-time...
Intelligent mirrors, which continue the works today and will take its place in the future technology, provide both mirror and computer aided information services to its users. Thanks to the microcontroller cards onboard, these systems, which can connect to the internet and take data from the internet, can show this information on the places located on the mirror. In the scope of the study, the developed...
The fact that 6-DoF (Degree of Freedom) mobile robots become widespread, makes 2 dimensional Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) systems insufficient in order to provide autonomous abilities like exploration and navigation. Thus, 3 dimensional SLAM has become a research subject, and various systems have been developed for the last decade. This paper compares performances of two state-of-the-art...
Decreasing the effectiveness of GPS technology in indoor environments has necessitated the use of different and cheaper technologies in these environments. Today's indoor positioning systems tend to be developed using wireless medium technologies such as RFID, BLE, WLAN, Geo-Magnetism, UWB and mobile device technology. The fact that these technologies are more likely to be affected by the environment...
While flow charts are one of the best ways to describe a computer program, drawing process is a laborious task for developers. This study describes an open source Javascript library named obfc.js, which we have developed to facilitate this task. This library generates SVG output on the client side for modern browsers and allows easy creation of diagrams and links. Moreover, it allows you to link click...
Recent studies of biological networks show that these networks are robust against the random or selective deletion of network nodes and / or edges. Ability to maintain performance of network under mutations is a key feature of live systems that has long been recognized. However, the molecular and cellular basis of this stability has just begun to be understood. Robustness is a key to understanding...
In this paper, computer engineering education in Turkey were examined on different perspectives. The current model of engineering education was analysed, and then some suggestions were presented. Also, some curriculum changes were suggested to increase the quality of education on undergraduate and graduate educations basis. To be able to have well qualified computer engineers, some methods which can...
Three-dimensional model of the interested region on the surface of an object provides an important information for a variety of industrial robot applications including welding, deburring, reverse engineering, etc. In this paper, we present a method that enables to determine 3D surface points of the objects by using a single camera and a rotary stage. The method utilizes a stereo vision triangulation...
Today, information technology has been used frequently in the veterinary field. Storage, information gathering and interpretation processes are realized by transferring the related field data to digital medium. In this context, expert systems provide important implications for symptom-disease relationship. In the study, the symptoms obtained from the pets are evaluated by the expert system and the...
When microbiology laboratory technicians examine the specimen on the microscope for recognition of bacteria, firstly they provide optimum focusing by adjusting of the microscope stage on the Z axis. Following the achievement of the optimal focus, the movement of the microscope stage on 3D axis (X-Y-Z) are performed without losing focusing in order to scan whole view of the specimen. Therefore, microscope...
Software testing includes sum of all actions that can be defined actively in a process starting from the acquisition of business requirements to the deployment of the software product to the customer, that increases the product reliability and that allows software product to be presented to the market at a certain level. However, it is difficult to perform software testing manually and human-based...
Nowadays, merchandising is one of the significant method which allows to increase the sales. Therefore, activities such as monitoring the number of products on the shelves, completing the missing products and matching the planogram continuously have become important. An autonomous system is needed to automate operations such as product or brand recognition, stock tracking and planogram matching. In...
Unemployment, poverty and similar problems that have come to the fore with the increase in population in our country have caused the municipalities to take charge in the field of social assistance and social services. For this purpose, it is very important that the municipalities that undertake social assistance and social service tasks are able to use the present data quickly during distribution...
Improved mobile devices have the computational power and software support for processing complex algorithmic expressions with the similar execution time when compared to the conventional processors. In this study, we investigated both serial and parallel implementations of Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm that is one of the most important swarm intelligence based algorithms by solving different...
Deep learning has become a popular sub-study in machine learning in the recent years due to the conclusions of development in computer hardware systems and big data. Deep learning is used successfully in image classification, speech recognition, natural language processing, and so on. Controlled intake of nutrition is recommended as a condition for being a healthy individual. Knowing and monitoring...
Feature selection is a process of selecting a subset of features that is highly distinguishable from the data set to obtain better or at least equivalent success rates. Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) Algorithm is a intelligence algorithm that model the behavior of honey bees in the nature of food seeking behavior and has been developed to produce a solution at continuous space. BitABC is a bitwise operator...
Skull extraction from Magnetic Resonance (MR) head image datasets is the process of segmentation of brain tissues from other tissues (e.g., skin, bone, fat) and has an important role in computer-assisted operations. Because, the accuracy of skull extraction affects the next stages of digital image processing or analysis. Semi-/full automated detection and extraction of the skull from MR datasets is...
