Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4Unlocking the Neural Mechanisms of Consumer Loan Evaluations: an Fnirs and Mlbased Consumer Neuroscience Study(Frontiers Media SA, 2024-02-05) Girişken, Yener; Son, Semen; Demircioğlu, Esin Tuna; Filiz, Gözde; Çakar, Tuna; Ertuğrul, Seyit; Sayar, Alperen; Tuna, Esin; Son-Turan, SemenThis study conducted a comprehensive exploration of the neurocognitive processes underlying consumer credit decision-making using cutting-edge techniques from neuroscience and artificial intelligence (AI). Employing functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), the research examines the hemodynamic responses of participants while evaluating diverse credit offers. The study integrates fNIRS data with advanced AI algorithms, specifically Extreme Gradient Boosting, CatBoost, and Light Gradient Boosted Machine, to predict participants' credit decisions based on prefrontal cortex (PFC) activation patterns. Findings reveal distinctive PFC regions correlating with credit behaviors, including the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) associated with strategic decision-making, the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) linked to emotional valuations, and the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) reflecting brand integration and reward processing. Notably, the right dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) and the right vmPFC contribute to positive credit preferences. This interdisciplinary approach bridges neuroscience and finance, offering unprecedented insights into the neural mechanisms guiding financial choices. The study's predictive model holds promise for refining financial services and illuminating human financial behavior within the burgeoning field of neurofinance. The work exemplifies the potential of interdisciplinary research to enhance our understanding of human financial decision-making.Article Citation - Scopus: 1A New Benchmark Dataset for P300 Erp-Based Bci Applications(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2023-04-01) Çakar, Tuna; Özkan, Hüseyin; Musellim, Serkan; Arslan, Suayb S.; Yağan, Mehmet; Alp, NihanBecause of its non-invasive nature, one of the most commonly used event-related potentials in brain -computer interface (BCI) system designs is the P300 electroencephalogram (EEG) signal. The fact that the P300 response can easily be stimulated and measured is particularly important for participants with severe motor disabilities. In order to train and test P300-based BCI speller systems in more realistic high-speed settings, there is a pressing need for a large and challenging benchmark dataset. Various datasets already exist in the literature but most of them are not publicly available, and they either have a limited number of participants or utilize relatively long stimulus duration (SD) and inter-stimulus intervals (ISI). They are also typically based on a 36 target (6 x 6) character matrix. The use of long ISI, in particular, not only reduces the speed and the information transfer rates (ITRs) but also oversimplifies the P300 detection. This leaves a limited challenge to state-of-the-art machine learning and signal processing algorithms. In fact, near-perfect P300 classification accuracies are reported with the existing datasets. Therefore, one certainly needs a large-scale dataset with challenging settings to fully exploit the recent advancements in algorithm design (machine learning and signal processing) and achieve high-performance speller results. To this end, in this article we introduce a new freely-and publicly-accessible P300 dataset obtained using 32-channel EEG, in the hope that it will lead to new research findings and eventually more efficient BCI designs. The introduced dataset comprises 18 participants performing a 40 -target (5 x 8) cued-spelling task, with reduced SD (66.6 ms) and ISI (33.3 ms) for fast spelling. We have also processed, analyzed, and character-classified the introduced dataset and we presented the accuracy and ITR results as a benchmark. The introduced dataset and the codes of our experiments are publicly accessible at https://data .mendeley.com /datasets /vyczny2r4w.(c) 2023 Elsevier Inc.

These systems need data with high quality and large volume, but unfortunately some natural languages suffer from the lack of readily available generation datasets. This article describes our efforts to create a new Turkish dataset (Tr-D2T) that consists of meaning representation and reference sentence pairs without fine-grained word alignments. We utilize Turkish web resources and existing datasets in other languages for producing meaning representations and collect reference sentences by crowdsourcing native speakers. We particularly focus on the generation of single-sentence biographies and dining venue descriptions. In order to motivate future Turkish D2T studies, we present detailed benchmarking results of different sequence-to-sequence neural models trained on this dataset. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first of its kind that provides preliminary findings and lessons learned from the creation of a new Turkish D2T dataset. Moreover, our work is the first extensive study that presents generation performances of transformer and recurrent neural network models from meaning representations in this morphologically-rich language.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Exact Construction of Bs-Assisted Mscr Codes With Link Constraints(IEEE Communications Letters, 2022-02-01) Arslan, Şuayb ŞefikIt is clear that 5G network resources would be consumed by heavy data traffic owing to increased mobility, slicing, and layered/distributed storage system architecture. The problem is elevated when multiple node failures are repaired to address service quality requirements. Typical approaches include individual or cooperative data regeneration to efficiently utilize the available bandwidth. It is observed that storage systems of 5G and beyond technologies shall have a multi–layer architecture in which base stations (BS) would be present. Moreover, communication with each layer would be subject to various communication costs and link constraints. Under limited BS assistance and cooperation, the trade-off between storage per node and communication bandwidth has been established. In this trade–off, two operating points, namely minimum storage, and bandwidth regeneration are particularly important. In this study, we first identify the optimal number of BS use at the minimum storage regeneration point. An explicit code construction is provided subsequently for the exact minimum storage regeneration whereby each layer may help the repair process subject to a communication link constraint.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 16Face Recognition With Patch-Based Local Walsh Transform(Elsevier, 2018-02-01) Uzun-Per, Meryem; Gökmen, MuhittinIn this paper, we present a novel dense local image representation method called Local Walsh Transform (LWT)by applying the well-known Walsh Transform (WT) to each pixel of an image. The LWT decomposes an image into multiple components, and produces LWT complex images by using the symmetrical relationship between them. Cascaded LWT (CLWT) is also a dense local image representation obtained by applying the LWT again to real and imaginary parts of LWT complex images. Applying the LWT once more to real and imaginary parts of LWT complex images increases the success rate especially on low resolution images. In order to combine the advantages of sparse and dense local image representations, we present Patch-based LWT (PLWT) and Patch-based CLWT (PCLWT) by applying the LWT and CLWT, respectively, to patches extracted around landmarks of multi-scaled face images. The extracted high dimensional features of the patches are reduced through the application of the Whitened Principal Component Analysis (WPCA). Experimental results show that both thePLWT and PCLWT are robust to illumination and expression changes, occlusion and low resolution. The state-of-the-art performance is achieved on the FERET and SCface databases, and the second best unsupervised category result is achieved on the LFW database.
