Assessment of patient classification in appointment system design
Çayırlı, Tuğba; Veral, E.; Rosen, H. (Production and Operations Management Society, 2008-05)This paper investigates two approaches to patient classification: using patient classification only for sequencing patient appointments at the time of booking and using patient classification for both sequencing and ... -
An assessment on the development of mosque architecture in the United Arab Emirates: cases from contemporary mosques
Alkhaled, Zahraa (2020-01-13)This study has two main purposes: First, to demonstrate the change of mosque architecture in the UAE by chronologically following the selected examples from the first available mosque to the present day. The mosques in ... -
Assessments on the improved modelling for pneumatic artificial muscle actuators
Peternel, L.; Uğurlu, Regaip Barkan; Babic, J.; Morimoto, J. (IEEE, 2015)In this paper, we present an analysis regarding the pneumatic air muscle modelling, with a particular emphasis on the exoskeleton robot control. We propose two calibration approaches for obtaining the model identification ... -

Celik, M. V.; Acar, İbrahim Hakkı (Taylor & Francis, 2020-09-09)The purpose of the current study was to examine the associations between learning behaviours and social competencies of Turkish preschool children. The participants were a total of 140 children (59 girls) with the mean age ... -
The associations between adult attachment, posttraumatic symptoms, and posttraumatic growth
Arıkan, Gizem; Stopa, L.; Carnelley, K. B.; Karl, A. (Informa Group Company, 2016)Background and Objectives: Individual differences after trauma vary considerably and can range from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to posttraumatic growth (PTG). Current theoretical models cannot fully explain this ... -
Associative and frequentist opponent modeling approaches in automated bilateral negotiations
This thesis mainly focuses on the problem of learning opponent's preferences during the negotiation in bilateral automated negotiation in which agents negotiate with each other to reach an agreement. Accordingly, it addresses ... -
The asymmetric impact of oil prices, interest rates and oil price uncertainty on unemployment in the US
Kocaaslan, B.; Soytas, U.; Soytaş, Mehmet Ali (Elsevier, 2020-02-01)In this study, we investigate the presence of asymmetric interactions between oil prices, oil price uncertainty, interest rates, and unemployment in a cointegration framework. Utilizing the nonlinear auto-regressive ... -
Asymptotic optimality of finite model approximations for partially observed markov decision processes with discounted cost
Saldı, Naci; Yuksel, S.; Linder, T. (IEEE, 2020-01)We consider finite model approximations of discrete-time partially observed Markov decision processes (POMDPs) under the discounted cost criterion. After converting the original partially observed stochastic control problem ... -
Asymptotic optimality of finite models for witsenhausen’s counterexample and beyond
Saldı, Naci; Linder, T.; Yüksel, S. (Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In this chapter, we study the approximation of Witsenhausen’s counterexample and the Gaussian relay channel problem by using the results of the previous chapter. In particular, our goal is to establish that finite models ... -
The attractive traveling salesman problem
Erdoğan, Güneş; Cordeau, J.-F.; Laporte, G. (Elsevier, 2010-05-16)In the Attractive Traveling Salesman Problem the vertex set is partitioned into facility vertices and customer vertices. A maximum profit tour must be constructed on a subset of the facility vertices. Profit is computed ... -
Attractors, repellers and fringe belts: origins and medieval transformations of Arsinoe, Ammochostos, al-Mau’dah, Famagusta, Magusa
Camiz, Alessandro (U+D Edition, Rome, 2019)This research poses a number of historical questions about the urban settlement of Famagusta: is it a Medieval, Crusader or a Frankish city? Is there any evidence of an earlier (pre-Lusignan) phase in the urban fabric and ... -
AUC maximization for binary classification using combinatorial benders cuts
Sakarya, İbrahim Edhem (2019-06-11)The purpose of this study is to maximize the area under Receiver Operating Characteristic curve for binary classi cation problems using a scoring-based mixed integer linear programming formulation. We investigate exact ... -
Auction based spectrum trading for cognitive radio networks
Tehrani, M. N.; Uysal, Murat (IEEE, 2013-06)In this letter, we consider the shared used model in cognitive radio networks and design a spectrum trading method to maximize the total satisfaction of the Secondary Users (SUs) and revenue of the Wireless Service Provider ... -
Augmenting occupant thermal experience with cyber-physical-social systems : a case study on adaptive vents
Keskin, Cem (2020-06-11)Buildings use more than 30% of global energy, while 36% of this energy comes from direct combustion of fossil fuels. Hence, buildings constitute a considerable share of CO2 emissions and has a large contribution to climate ... -

(ACM, 2010)We present a complete system for distance learning over interactive TV with novel tools for authoring and presentation of lectures and exams, and evaluation of student and system performance. The main technological ... -
Automated extraction of feature models from android based portable devices
Yildirim, İ.; Sözer, Hasan (IEEE, 2017)Domain analysis is an essential activity in software product line engineering to identify common and variable features among the products of a product family. Feature models are commonly used for depicting the identified ... -
Automated negotiating agents competition (ANAC)
Jonker, C. M.; Aydoğan, Reyhan; Baarslag, T.; Fujita, K.; Ito, T.; Hindiks, K. (AAAI press, 2017)The annual International Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC) is used by the automated negotiation research community to benchmark and evaluate its work and to challenge itself. The benchmark problems and ... -
Automated objective and subjective evaluation of HTTP adaptive streaming systems
Timmerer, C.; Zabrovskiy, A.; Beğen, Ali Cengiz (IEEE, 2018-06-26)Streaming audio and video content currently accounts for the majority of the internet traffic and is typically deployed over the top of the existing infrastructure. We are facing the challenge of a plethora of media players ... -
