The questions are assigned automatically to the relevant departments by the system according to the subjects of the questions. In some cases, the mismatches between the contents and the subjects of the questions may cause the wrong Human Resources department assignments of the questions. Even though the application allows Human Resources employees to redirect the questions to the appropriate Human Resources departments, which are responsible for answering, the response time of these questions lasts longer. This project aims to analyze the content of the Human Resources related questions by using the text classification algorithms to predict the responsible Human Resources departments. Thus, it is aimed to respond to the questions in a much shorter time.Master Thesis Convolutional Neural Network for Facial Emotion Recognition With Geometrical Features of Face(MEF Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2021) Arslan, İlker; Tuna ÇakarOne of the recent challenging machine learning problems is to make predictions on image datasets.

With increased usage of POS channel or internet in recent years, the risks of credit card fraud have increased. Mostly, these illegal activities start with a compromise of data associated with the account number or important information that required to start the financial transaction. After, literature review and exploratory data analysis, machine learning algorithms are going to use to decide whether the transaction is fraud or not. Logistic regression, decision tree, Naive-Bayes, decision forest and linear SVC’s classifier algorithms are used in this study. With re-sampling choices (random-under, random-over sampling & SMOTE), these algorithms’ performances are compared. Logistic regression, decision tree, and random forest provide best results in terms of accuracy metrics. Grid-Search is applied to those three algorithms. Decision tree algorithm is chosen as the best algorithm for credit card fraud detection. Python 3.7 is used in this study.Master Thesis E-Commerce Customer Shurn Prediction Based Machine Learning Algortihms(MEF Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2018) Eser, Ahmet Yetkin; Arısoy Saraçlar, EbruWith the development and popularization of a digital world, human behavior has changed so remarkably.

In most of these studies, Technical Analysis and Fundamental Analysis based models have been used. For daily price estimations, macroeconomic variables or financial ratios of financial instruments are used. On the other hand trade book data are taken into consideration in intraday price estimates. In this study, equity market data analytics, which are created by Borsa İstanbul as a benchmark for intraday price signals, are used. These analytics are derived from trade and order book data. For 5 minute periods, intraday price and equity market data analytics data sets are created, and different algorithms are tried over these data sets. The study is carried out using one-week data of 4 selected blue chip stocks. The signals for increase is 1, for decreases is -1 and 0 for non-change signals. As a result of the study, the decision jungle algorithm is the most successful algorithm. In addition this, the lack of volatility and liquidity in the market have caused overfitting problems in ensemble algorithms. According to the multiclass decision jungle confusion matrix, the positive true results for 1 (or increase of the price) are promising. If an investors can just use the algorithm for the price increase, it will be meaningful. The true positive ratio of 1, 54.5%, is too high when it is compared with its false trues value for decrease (or -1), which is just 13.6%. The difference between true positive and false negative (54.5% - 13.6%) will be the earning ratio for the investor, if he/she decides to invest the price increase of Yapi Kredi stock with the decision jungle algorithm. Although it is stated that big data algorithms (machine learning techniques) can give the best results for the data, domain knowledge related to the data is still very important. As it is seen in the study, in order to overcome the problems of overfitting or bias that occur in other studies, it is necessary to obtain sufficient domain knowledge in consultation with the experts and practitioners of the subject. In addition, the increase in the studies on intraday trading, which is a shallow area in the literature, will provide better results in the studies conducted on price forecasts in the future. In the results of this study, parallel with the literature, it is revealed that there is difficulty in estimating the stock price movements.Master Thesis Online Shopping Purchasing Prediction(MEF Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2021) Kazezyılmaz, İdil; Evren GüneyThis project aims to understand the purchasing behavior of the consumers and make predictions about purchasing according to website metrics such as page values, bounce rates.An existing dataset is used in this project. This dataset is available in the collection of data from an e-commerce website by Google Analytics, which consists of 10 numerical and 8 categorical attributes coming from 12,330 sessions. The 'Revenue' attribute is used as the class label. The attributes that have high impact on the prediction are; "Administrative", "Administrative Duration", "Informational", "Informational Duration", "Product Related" and "Product-Related Duration". They represent the number of different types of pages visited by the visitor in that session and the total time spent in each of these page categories.The "Bounce Rate", "Exit Rate" and "Page Value" features represent the metrics measured by Google Analytics for each page in the e-commerce site. The "Special Day '' feature indicates the closeness of the site visiting time to a specific special day (e.g. Mother’s Day, Valentine's Day) in which the sessions are more likely to be finalized with a transaction.Since the purpose of this project is to predict potential purchasing using existing data, in the prediction part several machine learning algorithms such as decision trees, random forests will be applied to compare the models. The most suitable model will be chosen among these algorithms.Master Thesis Prototyping as a tool and a process in architectural education(MEF Üniversitesi, 2022) Şahinkaya Bucak, Ebru; Özdemir, Kürşad; Sezgin, AhmetBir kavram ve uygulama olarak mimarlık için prototipleme, diğer alanlarda olduğu gibi somut bir çalışma modeli oluşturmanın ötesindedir. İnşa ederken tasarımın devam ettiği ve aynı anda deneyimlemenin sağlanabildiği bütünsel, öğretici bir süreci kapsar. Ayrıca prototipleme, teori ve pratik arasında gidip gelen mimarlığın alanını anlamaya yardımcı olan bir eyleme dönüşebilir. Bu tez çalışmasının amacı, prototipleme kavramının mimarlık eğitimi başta olmak üzere mimari çalışmalara dahil edilmesinin faydalarını belirlemektir. Zaman içinde, ustadan çırağa aktarılan mimarlık bilgisi bugün genellikle sanat ve mühendisliğin iç içe olduğu okullarda öğretilen formal bir sisteme dönüşmüştür.

It is important to know how many products need to be sent to the relevant store in order to sell more products, whether more or less products will be sent to the stores, how much the product can sell and how much capacity the stores will have for the relevant products during the season. Planning and producing more products than necessary may also cause insufficient capacity to consume the stocks of that product in the relevant season. For these reasons, a detailed capacity management system is needed. The capacity of certain product groups in the stores in certain seasons can be determined by calculating the capacities of the relevant units in the stores and the relations of these units with the product groups. The relevant system will produce output for both planning and allocation units. At the same time, converting the capacity of products and store display units into a common unit (LCM) will be one of the factors that facilitate our work in capacity calculation. A short version of the LC Waikiki capacity system platform is used to obtain the data. ASP.Net Core Web API, ADO.NET, T-SQL, C # programming were used as program tools. Azure Microsoft SQL Server was used as a database server. Azure App Services has been used to keep the business codes.Master Thesis Predicting the Price of Bitcoin: Using Machine Learning Time Series Methods(MEF Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2020) Ulutaş, Sezer; Utku KoçCryptocurrencies have greatly increased their Bitcoin-led popularity in recent years due to increased trading volumes and massive capitalization in the market. These cryptographic forms of money are not just utilized for exchanging nowadays, they are additionally acknowledged for fiscal exchanges. It appears to be evident that financial specialists, dealers and people, in general, are progressively intrigued by bitcoin and altcoins as costs rise and the arrival on ventures made increments. This examination centres around applying estimate models that will make precise value forecasts forcryptographic forms of money. The data were taken from two different exchanges and evaluated as combined dataset. As a result of the evaluation, it was determined that the prices were close to each other in terms of value and the data were combined. We obtained the daily time series data by determining the Bitcoin weighted price as a dependent variable and Open, Close, High, Low and Volume as independent variable. We predicted the next 6 months with ARIMA, LSTM and XGBoost methods. We compared these estimates using MSE, MAE, MAPE and R squared performance metrics. LSTM is the model with the best R squared value of 29.7%. In the process performed by taking the average of LSTM, XGBoost and ARIMA performed with the name of Average ML method, the R square value was found to be 41.6% as a much better result than LSTM.Master Thesis Product Recommendation for C2c Marketplace With Collaborative Filtering Als Algorithm(MEF Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2021) Kıran Çelebi, Bilgehan; Utku KoçIn this project, a machine learning recommendation model is created for an e-commerce company which runs a customer to customer business. The raw data consisted order reviews, order details, product like event information and product details. The explicit and implicit feedbacks are used together and a rating generation logic per user-product couple is applied to create the source data of the model by using Google Cloud BigQuery tool. The ALS algorithm which uses matrix factorization is applied for predicting the top items which have highest ratings for each user. PySpark which is Apache Spark’s python API is used for implementing the ALS model. The best hyperparameters are determined comparing the root mean square error results by using grid search and cross validation and 0.78 of RMSE is reached. The predictions for the empty ratings are sorted then top rated 10 products are taken as recommendations. The evaluation of the model is done by comparing those recommendations with the user preferences. The user preferences are specified by using averagely top rated product categories and most interacted product categories in count. The recommendations are observed to be consistent with the user preferences.
