    Generation of optimum signature base sequences for speech signals
    (IEEE, 2000) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Akdeniz, Rafet
    In our previous publications [1-6], we proposed a novel method to represent signals in terms of, so called, "Signature Base Functions-SBF' which were extracted from the physical features of the waveform under consideration. In [1-6], SBF were determined in ad-hoc manner, which requires tedious search process, and they were not orthogonal. Furthermore, optimality of SBF was in question. In this work however, we suggest a well-organised procedure to generate "Optimum Orthogonal Signature Base Functions-OSBF' for selected waveforms, which in turn provides excellent means for signal representations. II is shown that the new method of signal representation, which is based on OSBF, requires less computation time with substantial signal compression and results in efficient speaker dependent recognition.

    An efficient ECG data compression technique based on predefined signature and envelope vector banks
    (IEEE, 2005) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this paper, a new method to compress ElectroCardioGram (ECG) Signal by means of "Predefined Signature and Envelope Vector Banks-PSEVB" is presented. In this work, on a frame basis, any ECG signal is modeled by multiplying three parameters as called the Predefined Signature Vector, Predefined Envelope Vector, and Frame-Scaling Coefficient. It has been demonstrated that the predefined signature vectors and predefined envelope vectors constitute a "PSEVB" to describe any measured ECG signal. In this case, ECG signal for each frame is described in terms of the two indices "R" and "K" of PSEVB and the frame-scaling coefficient. The new compression method achieve good compression ratios with low level reconstruction error while preserving diagnostic information in the reconstructed ECG signal. Furthermore, once PSEVB are stored on each communication node, transmission of ECG signals reduces to the transmission of indexes "R" and "K" of PSEVB and the frame-scaling coefficient which also result in considerable saving in the transmission band.

    A new algorithm for high speed speech and audio coding
    (IEEE, 2007) Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this work, a new mathematical modeling approach is proposed for the representation of the speech and audio signals. This approach is based on the generation of the so called Predefined Signature Sequence (PSS) and Predefined Envelope Sequence (PES) Sets. After the generation process of the PSS and PES sets, they are clustered by effective k-means clustering algorithm and the PSS and PES are redefined by using the centroids of the clusters. By using this approach, the drawbacks such as the size of the sets, speed of the reconstruction process (computational complexity) which arise in our proposed methods previously are highly eliminated. In spite of these improvements, the initial results proved that, the quality of the reconstructed signals remains within the limitations of the acceptable hearing quality.

    A novel method to represent ECG signals via predefined personalized signature and envelope functions
    (IEEE, 2001) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Aygün, B.
    In this paper, a new method to model ECG signals by means of "Predefined Personalized Signature and Envelope Functions" is presented. ECG signals are somewhat unique to a person. Moreover, it presents quasi-stationary behavior. Therefore in this work, on a frame basis, personal ECG signals X-i(t) is modeled by the form of X-i(t) approximate to C(i)phi(i)(t) alpha(i)(t). In this model, phi(i)(t) is defined as the Personalized Signature Function (PSF); alpha(i)(t) is referred to as Personalized Envelope Function (PEF) and C-i is called the Frame-Scaling Coefficient (FSC). It has been demonstrated that for each person, the sets Phi = {phi(k)(t)} and A = {alpha(r)(t)} constitute a "Predefined Personalized Functional Bases or Banks (PPFB)" to describe any measured ECG signal. Almost optimum forms of (PPFB), namely {alpha(r)(t)}, {phi(k)(t)} pairs are generated in the Least Mean Square (LMS) sense. Thus, ECG signal for each frame is described in terms of the two indices "R" and "K" of PPFB and the frame-scaling coefficient Ci. It has been shown that the new method of modeling provides significant data compression. Furthermore, once PPFB are stored on each communication node, transmission of ECG signals reduces to the transmission of indexes "R" and "K" of pairs and the coefficients C-i, which also result in considerable saving in the transmission band.

    Elektroensefalogram (EEG) işaretlerinin sıkıştırılmasında özgün bir yaklaşım
    (IEEE, 2008) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    Bu çalışmada, Elektroensefalogram(EEG) işaretlerinin yeniden oluşturulmasına yönelik olarak yeni bir yöntem sunulmaktadır. Sunulan yöntem, etkin bir k-ortalamalı sınıflandırma algoritması kullanılarak Sınıflandırılmış Temel Tanım ve Zarf Vektör Setlerinin oluşturulmasına dayanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, EEG işaretleri eşit uzunluklu çerçevelere bölünerek analiz edilmiş ve herbir çerçeve Sınıflandırılmış Temel Tanım vektörü, Sınıflandırılmış Zarf vektörü ve Çerçeve Ölçekleme Katsayısı olarak adlandırılan üç parametrenin çarpımı biçiminde modellenmiştir. Bu durumda, EEG işaretinin herbir çerçevesi sınıflandırılmış temel tanım ve zarf vektör setlerine ilişkin iki sıra numarası R ve K ile çerçeve ölçekleme katsayısı cinsinden tanımlanabilir. Önerilen yöntemin başarımı ortalama karesel hata tanımı ve görsel inceleme ölçütü yoluyla değerlendirilmiştir. Önerilen yöntem, EEG işaretlerinin tanı açısından önemli kısımları korunarak, düşük yeniden oluşturma hataları ve yüksek sıkıştırma oranları ile yeniden oluşturulmasını sağlamaktadır.

    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.

    (IEEE, 2004) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this paper, a new method to model EMG signals by means of "Predefined Signature and Envelope Functional Banks (PSEB)" is presented. Since EMG signals present quasi-stationary behavior, any EMG signal Xi is modeled by the form of Xi ? Ci?K?R on a frame bases in this work. In this model, ?R is defined as the Predefined Signature Vector (PSV); ?K is referred to as Predefined Envelope Vector (PEV) and Ci is called the Frame-Scaling Coefficient (FSC). EMG signal for each frame is described in terms of the two indices "R" and "K" of PSEB and the frame -scaling coefficient Ci. Furthermore, It has been shown that the new method of modeling provides significant data compression while preserving the clinical information in the reconstructed signal.

    (IEEE Computer Society, 2007) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this paper, a novel method to compress ElectroEncephaloGram (EEG) Signal is proposed. The proposed method is based on the generation Classified Signature and Envelope Vector Sets (CSEVS) by using an effective k-means clustering algorithm. In this work on a frame basis, any EEG signal is modeled by multiplying three parameters as called the Classified Signature Vector, Classified Envelope Vector, and Frame-Scaling Coefficient. In this case, EEG signal for each frame is described in terms of the two indices R and K of CSEVS and the frame-scaling coefficient. The proposed method is assessed through the use of root-mean-square error (RMSE) and visual inspection measures. The proposed method achieves good compression ratios with low level reconstruction error while preserving diagnostic information in the reconstructed EEG signal.
