Yayın EEG signal compression based on classified signature and envelope vector sets(Wiley, 2009-03) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this paper, a novel method to compress electroencephalogram (EEG) signal is proposed. The proposed method is based on the generation process of the classified signature and envelope vector sets (CSEVS), which employs an effective k-means clustering algorithm. It is assumed that both the transmitter and the receiver units have the same CSEVS. In this work, on a frame basis, EEG signals are modeled by multiplying only three factors called as classified signature vector, classified envelope vector, and gain coefficient (GC), respectively. In other words, every frame of an EEG signal is represented by two indices R and K of CSEVS and the GC. EEG signals are reconstructed frame by frame using these numbers in the receiver unit by employing the CSEVS. The proposed method is evaluated by using some evaluation metrics that are commonly used in this area such as root-mean-square error, percentage root-mean-square difference, and measuring with visual inspection. The performance of the proposed method is also compared with the other methods. It is observed that the proposed method achieves high compression ratios with low-level reconstruction error while preserving diagnostic information in the reconstructed EEG signal.Yayın Biometric identification using fingertip electrocardiogram signals(Springer London Ltd, 2018-07) Güven, Gökhan; Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, ÜmitIn 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.Yayın A novel image compression method based on classified energy and pattern building blocks(Springer International Publishing AG, 2011) Güz, ÜmitIn this paper, a novel image compression method based on generation of the so-called classified energy and pattern blocks (CEPB) is introduced and evaluation results are presented. The CEPB is constructed using the training images and then located at both the transmitter and receiver sides of the communication system. Then the energy and pattern blocks of input images to be reconstructed are determined by the same way in the construction of the CEPB. This process is also associated with a matching procedure to determine the index numbers of the classified energy and pattern blocks in the CEPB which best represents (matches) the energy and pattern blocks of the input images. Encoding parameters are block scaling coefficient and index numbers of energy and pattern blocks determined for each block of the input images. These parameters are sent from the transmitter part to the receiver part and the classified energy and pattern blocks associated with the index numbers are pulled from the CEPB. Then the input image is reconstructed block by block in the receiver part using a mathematical model that is proposed. Evaluation results show that the method provides considerable image compression ratios and image quality even at low bit rates.Yayın A new speech modeling method: SYMPES(IEEE, 2006) Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this paper, the new method of speech modeling which is called SYMPES is introduced and it is compared with the commercially available methods. It is shown that for the same compression ratio or better, SYMPES yields considerably better hearing quality over the coders such as G.726 at 16 Kbps and voice excited LPC-10E of 2.4Kbps.Yayın Compression of the biomedical images using quadtree-based partitioned universally classified energy and pattern blocks(Springer London, 2019-03-15) Gezer, Murat; Gargari, Sepideh Nahavandi; Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, HakanIn this work, an efficient low bit rate image coding/compression method based on the quadtree-based partitioned universally classified energy and pattern building blocks (QB-UCEPB) is introduced. The proposed method combines low bit rate robustness and variable-sized quantization benefits of the well-known classified energy and pattern blocks (CEPB) method and quadtree-based (QB) partitioning technique, respectively. In the new method, first, the QB-UCEPB is constructed in the form of variable length block size thanks to the quadtree-based partitioning rather than fixed block size partitioning which was employed in the conventional CEPB method. The QB-UCEPB is then placed to the transmitter side as well as receiver side of the communication channel as a universal codebook manner. Every quadtree-based partitioned block of the input image is encoded using three quantities: image block scaling coefficient, the index number of the QB-UCEB and the index number of the QB-UCPB. These quantities are sent from the transmitter part to the receiver part through the communication channel. Then, the quadtree-based partitioned input image blocks are reconstructed in the receiver part using a decoding algorithm, which exploits the mathematical model that is proposed. Experimental results show that using the new method, the computational complexity of the classical CEPB is substantially reduced. Furthermore, higher compression ratios, PSNR and SSIM levels are achieved even at low bit rates compared to the classical CEPB and conventional methods such as SPIHT, EZW and JPEG2000Yayın Modeling of electrocardiogram signals using predefined signature and envelope vector sets(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2007) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaA novel method is proposed to model ECG signals by means of "predefined signature and envelope vector sets (PSEVS)." On a frame basis, an ECG signal is reconstructed by multiplying three model parameters, namely, predefined signature vector (PSV)(R)," "predefined envelope vector (PEV)(K)," and frame-scaling coefficient (FSC). All the PSVs and PEVs are labeled and stored in their respective sets to describe the signal in the reconstruction process. In this case, an ECG signal frame is modeled by means of the members of these sets labeled with indices R and K and the frame-scaling coefficient, in the least mean square sense. The proposed method is assessed through the use of percentage root-mean-square difference (PRD) and visual inspection measures. Assessment results reveal that the proposed method provides significant data compression ratio (CR) with low-level PRD values while preserving diagnostic information. This fact significantly reduces the bandwidth of communication in telediagnosis operations. Copyright (c) 2007 Hakan Gurkan et al.
