    Biometric identification using fingertip electrocardiogram signals
    (Springer London Ltd, 2018-07) Güven, Gökhan; Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit
    In this research work, we present a newly fingertip electrocardiogram (ECG) data acquisition device capable of recording the lead-1 ECG signal through the right- and left-hand thumb fingers. The proposed device is high-sensitive, dry-contact, portable, user-friendly, inexpensive, and does not require using conventional components which are cumbersome and irritating such as wet adhesive Ag/AgCl electrodes. One of the other advantages of this device is to make it possible to record and use the lead-1 ECG signal easily in any condition and anywhere incorporating with any platform to use for advanced applications such as biometric recognition and clinical diagnostics. Furthermore, we proposed a biometric identification method based on combining autocorrelation and discrete cosine transform-based features, cepstral features, and QRS beat information. The proposed method was evaluated on three fingertip ECG signal databases recorded by utilizing the proposed device. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed biometric identification method achieves person recognition rate values of 100% (30 out of 30), 100% (45 out of 45), and 98.33% (59 out of 60) for 30, 45, and 60 subjects, respectively.

    Extension of conventional co-training learning strategies to three-view and committee-based learning strategies for effective automatic sentence segmentation
    (IEEE, 2018) Dalva, Doğan; Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan
    The objective of this work is to develop effective multi-view semi-supervised machine learning strategies for sentence boundary classification problem when only small sets of sentence boundary labeled data are available. We propose three-view and committee-based learning strategies incorporating with co-training algorithms with agreement, disagreement, and self-combined learning strategies using prosodic, lexical and morphological information. We compare experimental results of proposed three-view and committee-based learning strategies to other semi-supervised learning strategies in the literature namely, self-training and co-training with agreement, disagreement, and self-combined strategies. The experiment results show that sentence segmentation performance can be highly improved using multi-view learning strategies that we propose since data sets can be represented by three redundantly sufficient and disjoint feature sets. We show that the proposed strategies substantially improve the average performance when only a small set of manually labeled data is available for Turkish and English spoken languages, respectively.

    A novel biometric authentication approach using electrocardiogram signals
    (IEEE, 2013) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this work, we present a novel biometric authentication approach based on combination of AC/DCT features, MFCC features, and QRS beat information of the ECG signals. The proposed approach is tested on a subset of 30 subjects selected from the PTB database. This subset consists of 13 healthy and 17 non-healthy subjects who have two ECG records. The proposed biometric authentication approach achieves average frame recognition rate of %97.31 on the selected subset. Our experimental results imply that the frame recognition rate of the proposed authentication approach is better than that of ACDCT and MFCC based biometric authentication systems, individually.

    Extraction and comparison of various prosodic feature sets on sentence segmentation task for Turkish broadcast news data
    (IEEE, 2014) Dalva, Doğan; Revidi, İzel D.; Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan
    In this work, prosodic features of the Turkish Broadcast News (BN) data are extracted using an open source prosodic feature extraction tool based on Praat. The profiles and effectiveness of these features are also investigated for the sentence segmentation task on the Turkish BN data. We not only used some combinations of the feature sets but also collected some of them in one prosodic feature model in order to achieve one of the best performance. The results of the experiments show that some combinations of the prosodic feature sets are very useful for the automatic sentence segmentation task on the Turkish BN data.
