    From past to present: spam detection and identifying opinion leaders in social networks
    (Yildiz Teknik Univ., 2022-06-22) Altınel Girgin, Ayşe Berna; Gümüşçekiçci, Gizem
    On microblogging sites, which are gaining more and more users every day, a wide range of ideas are quickly emerging, spreading, and creating interactive environments. In some cases, in Turkey as well as in the rest of the world, it was noticed that events were published on microblogging sites before appearing in visual, audio and printed news sources. Thanks to the rapid flow of information in social networks, it can reach millions of people in seconds. In this context, social media can be seen as one of the most important sources of information affecting public opinion. Since the information in social networks became accessible, research started to be conducted using the information on the social networks. While the studies about spam detection and identification of opinion leaders gained popularity, surveys about these topics began to be published. This study also shows the importance of spam detection and identification of opinion leaders in social networks. It is seen that the data collected from social platforms, especially in recent years, has sourced many state-of-art applications. There are independent surveys that focus on filtering the spam content and detecting influencers on social networks. This survey analyzes both spam detection studies and opinion leader identification and categorizes these studies by their methodologies. As far as we know there is no survey that contains approaches for both spam detection and opinion leader identification in social networks. This survey contains an overview of the past and recent advances in both spam detection and opinion leader identification studies in social networks. Furthermore, readers of this survey have the opportunity of understanding general aspects of different studies about spam detection and opinion leader identification while observing key points and comparisons of these studies.

    Web service translating content into Turkish sign language
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020-10-12) Gümüşçekiçci, Gizem; Ezerceli, Özay; Tek, Faik Boray
    The essential communication tool for people with hearing loss is sign language. It is way more efficient for their communication. Existing systems for translating the text into sign language are offline and not practical. In this study, we propose a web service-based solution for online translation of content into Turkish Sign Language. We implemented the system and tested it using 32 sentences of 189 words as inputs. The correct word translation rate was 81.74% for the media or audio inputs and the correct word translation for the text inputs was 81.09% The results show the feasibility of the solution and the potential for improvements.

    TurkEmbed: Turkish embedding model on natural language inference & sentence text similarity tasks
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Ezerceli, Özay; Gümüşçekiçci, Gizem; Erkoç, Tuğba; Özenç, Berke
    This paper introduces TurkEmbed, a novel Turkish language embedding model designed to outperform existing models, particularly in Natural Language Inference (NLI) and Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) tasks. Current Turkish embedding models often rely on machine-translated datasets, potentially limiting their accuracy and semantic understanding. TurkEmbed utilizes a combination of diverse datasets and advanced training techniques, including matryoshka representation learning, to achieve more robust and accurate embeddings. This approach enables the model to adapt to various resource-constrained environments, offering faster encoding capabilities. Our evaluation on the Turkish STS-b-TR dataset, using Pearson and Spearman correlation metrics, demonstrates significant improvements in semantic similarity tasks. Furthermore, TurkEmbed surpasses the current state-of-the-art model, Emrecan, on All-NLI-TR and STS-b-TR benchmarks, achieving a 1-4% improvement. TurkEmbed promises to enhance the Turkish NLP ecosystem by providing a more nuanced understanding of language and facilitating advancements in downstream applications.

    TurkEmbed4Retrieval: Türkçe için geri getirme görevine özel gömme modeli
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025-08-15) Ezerceli, Özay; Gümüşçekiçci, Gizem; Erkoç, Tuğba; Özenç, Berke
    Bu çalışmada, öncelikle Doğal Dil Çıkarımı (DDÇ) ve Anlamsal Metin Benzerliği (AMB) görevleri için geliştirilen TurkEmbed modelinin, MS-Marco-TR veri seti üzerinde ince ayar yapılarak geri getirme görevlerine uygun hale getirilmesini sağlayan TurkEmbed4Retrieval modelini tanıtıyoruz. Model, Matruşka temsili ögrenme ve özel tasarlanmış negatif çiftlerin sıralanması kayıp fonksiyonu gibi ileri seviye egitim teknikleri kullanılarak optimize edilmiştir. Yapılan kapsamlı deneyler, TurkEmbed4Retrieval’ın, geri getirme metriklerinde TurkishcolBERT modelini Scifact-TR veri kümesinde %19–26 oranında geçtiğini göstermektedir. Bu bağlamda, modelimiz, Türkçe bilgi getirme sistemleri için yeni bir çıtaya ulaşmaktadır.
