Article Enhanced Mapping of Rainfall Induced Landslide Susceptibility Using a Deep Feedforward Neural Network with Soft Computing(Techno-Press, 2026) Zhu, Licai; Akagic, Amila; Nanehkaran, Yaser A.; Pusatli, Tolga; Mahmud, Elkhan; Jian, DongThe presented study attempted to propose enhanced rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility mapping method by using the Deep Feedforward Neural Network (DFNN) which is developed for analysis the non-liner feature detection in landslide susceptibility analysis. To evaluate our approach, a comprehensive dataset of triggering factors was compiled, encompassing historical landslide occurrences with total of 107 records, rainfall data, geological information, seismicity, human-activities, and topographic attributes. Through rigorous training and testing procedures, the DFNN demonstratedsuperior ability for generalization and superior performance. The effectiveness of the selected method is demonstrated on the data from the Zanjan County, known for its diverse geographical, geological, and hydrological characteristics, which are pivotal factors in mapping of landslide susceptibility. Results showcased a substantial enhancement in the accuracy of mapping of rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility for the Zanjan County, which is compared with benchmark learning classifiers. According to the results of the study, it appeared that the northeastern and southwestern area of the Zanjan County can be deemed to have a high to very-high risk of landslide occurrence, which is validated via benchmark classifiers. The western part of the Zanjan County was observed to have a very low to low risk.Conference Object Arabic Sign Language Paradigm Enhancement(American Institute of Physics, 2026) Aljuboori, Mohammed Khaleel Naser; Tasel, Faris SerdarConference Object Publicly Available Datasets for Smart and Precision Agriculture: A Systematic Review(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2026) Arabaci, Hatice Elif; Keskin, Mustafa Berk; Kahraman, Arda; Bozdag, Oyku EylulArticle Comprehensive Analysis of Data Augmentation Methods in Classification for an Imbalanced Epilepsy Dataset(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2026) Calis, A.G.; Ergezer, H.Imbalanced class distribution reduces the generalizability of classifiers in EEG-based epilepsy detection. This study examines the impact of the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) and its variants on imbalanced electroencephalography (EEG) data, utilizing an end-to-end data processing pipeline. Band-limited filtering is applied as pre-processing, and then the training data is gradually oversampled by 20% increments in four scenes. Experiments are conducted on coarse-k-nearest neighbor (Coarse-KNN), bagged trees, and artificial neural network (ANN) classifiers, and evaluation is performed using accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, and Matthew’s correlation coefficient (MCC) metrics. In Scene #4, where the inter-class imbalance is eliminated, Borderline-SMOTE yielded the highest and most consistent results (F1 Score = 0.903–0.937, MCC = 0.830–0.894). Safe level-SMOTE (SL-SMOTE) and SMOTE/Geometric-SMOTE(G-SMOTE) produced second-ranked results. The findings demonstrate that appropriate variant selection provides consistent gains even across classifiers, making Borderline-SMOTE the recommended approach for imbalanced EEG classification. Furthermore, in the detailed analysis of ensemble sampling limits, SMOTE-based combined approaches (e.g., SL + G SMOTE) also produced consistent results. Basic descriptive statistics (mode, median, variance, and kurtosis) of the synthetic samples were found to be comparable to those of the real data, providing additional evidence of distributional consistency. © 2013 IEEE.Article Stylometric Analysis of Sustainable Central Bank Communications: Revealing Authorial Signatures in Monetary Policy Statements(MDPI, 2025) Emekci, Hakan; Ozkan, IbrahimSustainable economic development requires transparent and consistent institutional communication from monetary authorities to maintain long-term financial stability and public trust. This study investigates the latent authorial structure and stylistic heterogeneity of central bank communications by applying stylometric analysis and unsupervised machine learning to official announcements of the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT). Using a dataset of 557 press releases from 2006 to 2017, we extract a range of linguistic features at both sentence and document levels-including sentence length, punctuation density, word length, and type-token ratios. These features are reduced using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and clustered via Hierarchical Clustering on Principal Components (HCPC), revealing three distinct authorial groups within the CBRT's communications. The robustness of these clusters is validated using multidimensional scaling (MDS) on character-level and word-level n-gram distances. The analysis finds consistent stylistic differences between clusters, with implications for authorship attribution, tone variation, and communication strategy. Notably, sentiment analysis indicates that one authorial cluster tends to exhibit more negative tonal features, suggesting potential bias or divergence in internal communication style. These findings challenge the conventional assumption of institutional homogeneity and highlight the presence of distinct communicative voices within the central bank. Furthermore, the results suggest that stylistic variation-though often subtle-may convey unintended policy signals to markets, especially in contexts where linguistic shifts are closely scrutinized. This research contributes to the emerging intersection of natural language processing, monetary economics, and institutional transparency. It demonstrates the efficacy of stylometric techniques in revealing the hidden structure of policy discourse and suggests that linguistic analytics can offer valuable insights into the internal dynamics, credibility, and effectiveness of monetary authorities. These findings contribute to sustainable financial governance by demonstrating how AI-driven analysis can enhance institutional transparency, promote consistent policy communication, and support long-term economic stability-key pillars of sustainable development.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Dengesiz Epilepsi Veri Seti İçin Sınıflandırmada Farklı SMOTE Yöntemlerinin Etkileri(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Calis, Ahmet Gokay; Ergezer, HalitIn this study, the effects of different SMOTE methods on machine learning algorithms for the imbalanced epilepsy dataset were investigated.

Many of the hand gesture recognition systems however, have been based on the recognition of hand postures and estimating the related gesture which is restricted to a few numbers of possible movements. However when dealing with applications such as understanding sign languages which include a large number of classes, an automatic learning method based on matching a sequence of postures with the characterizing feature sequence of each class is necessary. An important characteristic of this method is that each sample sequence of a class may have a variable length and different position of the key features. In this paper a syntactic method has been proposed for classifying the input sequences. An algorithm foe extracting the grammar of the method during training stage is also given.Article Detection and Classification of Femoral Neck Fractures From Plain Pelvic X-Rays Using Deep Learning and Machine Learning Methods(Turkish Assoc Trauma Emergency Surgery, 2025) Sevinc, Huseyin Fatih; Ureten, Kemal; Karadeniz, Talha; Gultekin, Gokhan KorayBackground: Femoral neck fractures are a serious health concern, particularly among the elderly. The aim of this study is to diagnose and classify femoral neck fractures from plain pelvic X-rays using deep learning and machine learning algorithms, and to compare the performance of these methods. Methods: The study was conducted on a total of 598 plain pelvic X-ray images, including 296 patients with femoral neck fractures and 302 individuals without femoral neck fractures. Initially, transfer learning was applied using pre-trained deep learning models: VGG-16, ResNet-50, and MobileNetv2. Results: The pre-trained VGG-16 network demonstrated slightly better performance than ResNet-50 and MobileNetV2 for detecting and classifying femoral neck fractures. Using the VGG-16 model, the following results were obtained: 95.6% accuracy, 95.5% sensitivity, 93.3% specificity, 95.7% precision, 95.5% F1 Score, a Cohen's kappa of 0.91, and the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.99. Subsequently, features extracted from the convolution layers of VGG-16 were classified using common machine learning algorithms. Among these, the k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) algorithm outperformed the others and exceeded the accuracy of the VGG-16 model by 1%. Conclusion: Successful results were obtained using deep learning and machine learning methods for the detection and classification of femoral neck fractures. The model can be further improved through multi-center studies. The proposed model may be especially useful for physicians working in emergency departments and for those not having sufficient experience in evaluating plain pelvic radiographs.Conference Object Predicting Electric Vehicle Adoption in the Eu: Analyzing Classification Performance and Influencing Attributes Across Countries, Gender, and Education Level(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Kumbasar, M.; Tokdemir, G.; Labben, T.G.; Ertek, G.Electric vehicles (EVs) have been one of the trending technologies in recent decades, as they are expected to transform the current automotive technology and transportation systems. To this end, the scope of this study is analyzing survey data on European consumers' EV purchase decisions. The objective is comparing the predictive quality of various classification algorithms in predicting EV adoption, across country, gender and education level of the participants, as well as the analysis of the influencing attributes. Initially, the data is filtered for each value of the chosen categorical attribute (country, gender or education level) with the missing values being imputed. Then, several classification algorithms in the Python sklearn package are applied through 5-fold-cross validation and the performance of the algorithms are compared based on standard classification metrics. There are notable variations in classification performance and influencing attributes depending on the values of the selected categorical attributes. © 2024 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 21Multi-Label Classification of Text Documents Using Deep Learning(Ieee, 2020) Mohammed, Hamza Haruna; Dogdu, Erdogan; Gorur, Abdul Kadir; Choupani, RoyaRecently, studies in the field of Natural Language Processing and its related applications continue to mount up. Machine learning is proven to be predominantly data-driven in the sense that generic model building methods are used and then tailored to specific application domains. Needless to say, this has proven to be a very effective approach in modeling the complicated data dependencies we frequently experience in practice, making very few assumptions, and allowing the information to talk for themselves. Examples of these applications can be found in chemical process engineering, climate science, healthcare, and linguistic processing systems for natural languages, to name a few. Text classification is one of the important machine learning tasks that is used in many digital applications today; such as in document filtering, search engines, document management systems, and many more. Text classification is the process of categorizing of text documents into a given set of labels. Furthermore, multi-label text classification is the task of categorization of text documents into one or more labels simultaneously. Over the years, many methods for classifying text documents have been proposed, including the popularly known bag of words (BoW) method, support vector machine (SVM), tree induction, and label-vector embedding, to mention a few. These kinds of tools can be used in many digital applications, such as document filtering, search engines, document management systems, etc. Lately, deep learning-based approaches are getting more attention, especially in extreme multi-label text classification case. Deep learning has proven to be one of the major solutions to many machine learning applications, especially those involving high-dimensional and unstructured data. However, it is of paramount importance in many applications to be able to reason accurately about the uncertainties associated with the predictions of the models. In this paper, we explore and compare the recent deep learning-based methods for multi-label text classification. We investigate two scenarios. First, multi-label classification model with ordinary embedding layer, and second with Glove, word2vec, and FastText as pre-trained embedding corpus for the given models. We evaluated these different neural network model performances in terms of multi-label evaluation metrics for the two approaches, and compare the results with the previous studies.
