    ICamp - The educational web for higher education
    (Springer Verlag, 2006) Kieslinger, Barbara; Wild, Fridolin; Arsun, Onur İhsan
    iCamp is an EC-funded research project in the area of Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) that aims to support collaboration and social networking across systems, countries and disciplines in higher education. The concept of an iCamp Space will build on existing interfaces and integrate shared community features. Interoperability amongst different open source learning systems and tools is the key to successful sustainability of iCamp. The content for this collaboration within social communities is provided via distributed networked repositories including, for example, content brokerage platforms, online libraries, and learning object databases. The innovative pedagogical model of iCamp is based on social constructivist learning theories. iCamp creates an environment for a new way of social networking in higher education that puts more emphasis on self-organised, self-directed learning, social networking and cross-cultural collaboration.

    Extraction and selection of muscle based features for facial expression recognition
    (IEEE Computer Soc, 2014-12-04) Benli, Kristin Surpuhi; Eskil, Mustafa Taner
    In this study we propose a new set of muscle activity based features for facial expression recognition. We extract muscular activities by observing the displacements of facial feature points in an expression video. The facial feature points are initialized on muscular regions of influence in the first frame of the video. These points are tracked through optical flow in sequential frames. Displacements of feature points on the image plane are used to estimate the 3D orientation of a head model and relative displacements of its vertices. We model the human skin as a linear system of equations. The estimated deformation of the wireframe model produces an over-determined system of equations that can be solved under the constraint of the facial anatomy to obtain muscle activation levels. We apply sequential forward feature selection to choose the most descriptive set of muscles for recognition of basic facial expressions.

    İfade tanıma için yüz anatomisine dayalı öznitelikler
    (IEEE, 2014-04-23) Benli, Kristin Surpuhi; Eskil, Mustafa Taner
    Bu çalışmada yüz ifadesi tanıma için kas kuvvetlerine dayalı yeni öznitelikler öneriyoruz. Yüz üzerinde seçtiğimiz noktaların video üzerindeki hareketlerini izleyerek kas kuvvetlerini çözüyoruz. Yüz noktaları, ilk video çerçevesi üzerinde, kas kuvvet alanları üzerinde ilklendirilir. Bu noktalar optik akış algoritması ile izlenir. Noktaların devinimleri yüzün 3 boyutlu yönelimi ve yüz ifadesine dayalı bağıl devinimleri kestirmek için kullanılır. İnsan yüzünü yaylarla, artık-belirtilmiş doğrusal bir denklem sistemi olarak modelliyoruz. Bu sistemi yüz anatomisi kısıtı altında, kas kuvvetleri için çözüyoruz. Ardışık ileri seçim yaparak, temel yüz ifadeleri için en betimleyici kas kümesini belirliyoruz.

    Software defect prediction using Bayesian networks
    (Springer, 2014-02) Okutan, Ahmet; Yıldız, Olcay Taner
    There are lots of different software metrics discovered and used for defect prediction in the literature. Instead of dealing with so many metrics, it would be practical and easy if we could determine the set of metrics that are most important and focus on them more to predict defectiveness. We use Bayesian networks to determine the probabilistic influential relationships among software metrics and defect proneness. In addition to the metrics used in Promise data repository, we define two more metrics, i.e. NOD for the number of developers and LOCQ for the source code quality. We extract these metrics by inspecting the source code repositories of the selected Promise data repository data sets. At the end of our modeling, we learn the marginal defect proneness probability of the whole software system, the set of most effective metrics, and the influential relationships among metrics and defectiveness. Our experiments on nine open source Promise data repository data sets show that response for class (RFC), lines of code (LOC), and lack of coding quality (LOCQ) are the most effective metrics whereas coupling between objects (CBO), weighted method per class (WMC), and lack of cohesion of methods (LCOM) are less effective metrics on defect proneness. Furthermore, number of children (NOC) and depth of inheritance tree (DIT) have very limited effect and are untrustworthy. On the other hand, based on the experiments on Poi, Tomcat, and Xalan data sets, we observe that there is a positive correlation between the number of developers (NOD) and the level of defectiveness. However, further investigation involving a greater number of projects is needed to confirm our findings.

    A novel kernel to predict software defectiveness
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2016-09) Okutan, Ahmet; Yıldız, Olcay Taner
    Although the software defect prediction problem has been researched for a long time, the results achieved are not so bright. In this paper, we propose to use novel kernels for defect prediction that are based on the plagiarized source code, software clones and textual similarity. We generate precomputed kernel matrices and compare their performance on different data sets to model the relationship between source code similarity and defectiveness. Each value in a kernel matrix shows how much parallelism exists between the corresponding files of a software system chosen. Our experiments on 10 real world datasets indicate that support vector machines (SVM) with a precomputed kernel matrix performs better than the SVM with the usual linear kernel in terms of F-measure. Similarly, when used with a precomputed kernel, the k-nearest neighbor classifier (KNN) achieves comparable performance with respect to KNN classifier. The results from this preliminary study indicate that source code similarity can be used to predict defect proneness.
