Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 11Low-Diameter Topic-Based Pub/Sub Overlay Network Construction With Minimum Maximum Node Degree(Peerj inc, 2021) Yumusak, Semih; Layazali, Sina; Oztoprak, Kasim; Hassanpour, RezaIn the construction of effective and scalable overlay networks, publish/subscribe (pub/sub) network designers prefer to keep the diameter and maximum node degree of the network low. However, existing algorithms are not capable of simultaneously decreasing the maximum node degree and the network diameter. To address this issue in an overlay network with various topics, we present herein a heuristic algorithm, called the constant-diameter minimum-maximum degree (CD-MAX), which decreases the maximum node degree and maintains the diameter of the overlay network at two as the highest. The proposed algorithm based on the greedy merge algorithm selects the node with the minimum number of neighbors. The output of the CD-MAX algorithm is enhanced by applying a refinement stage through the CD-MAX-Ref algorithm, which further improves the maximum node degrees. The numerical results of the algorithm simulation indicate that the CD-MAX and CD-MAX-Ref algorithms improve the maximum node-degree by up to 64% and run up to four times faster than similar algorithms.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Mining Medline for the Treatment of Osteoporosis(Springer, 2012) Ceken, Cinar; Hassanpour, Reza; Esmelioglu, Sadik; Tolun, Mehmet Resit; Yildirim, PinarIn this paper, we consider the importance of osteoporosis disease in terms of medical research and pharmaceutical industry and we introduce a knowledge discovery approach regarding the treatment of osteoporosis from a historical perspective. Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease in which osteoporotic fractures are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality and impaired quality of life. Osteoporosis has also higher costs, for example, longer hospital stays than many other diseases such as diabetes and heart attack and it is an attractive market for pharmaceutical companies. We use a freely available biomedical search engine leveraging text-mining technology to extract the drug names used in the treatment of osteoporosis from MEDLINE articles. We conclude that alendronate (Fosamax) and raloxifene (Evista) have the highest number of articles in MEDLINE and seem the dominating drugs for the treatment of osteoporosis in the last decade.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 10Prediction of Similarities Among Rheumatic Diseases(Springer, 2012) Ceken, Cinar; Hassanpour, Reza; Tolun, Mehmet Resit; Yildirim, PinarWe introduce a method for extracting hidden patterns seen in rheumatic diseases by using articles from the widely used biomedical database MEDLINE. Rheumatic diseases affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide and lead to substantial loss of functioning and mobility. Diagnosing rheumatic diseases can be difficult because some symptoms are common to many of them. We use Facta system as a biomedical text mining tool for finding symptoms and then create a dataset with the frequencies of symptoms for each disease and apply hierarchical clustering analysis to find similarities between diseases. Clustering analysis yields four distinct types or groups of rheumatic diseases. Although our results cannot remove all the uncertainty for the diagnosis of rheumatic diseases, we believe they can contribute to the diagnosis of rheumatic diseases to a certain extent. We hope that some similarities exposed can provide additional information at the stage of decision-making.
