    New criteria for the existence of stable equilibrium points in nonsymmetric cellular neural networks
    (IEEE, 2003) Özcan, Neyir; Arık, Sabri; Tavşanoğlu, Ahmet Vedat
    A new criteria for the existence of stable equilibrium points in nonsymmetric cellular neural networks (CNN) was presented. It was shown that the results obtained can be used to derive some complete stability conditions for some special classes of CNNs such as positive cell-linking CNNs, opposite-sign CNNs and dominant-template CNNs. The model of the CNN whose dynamical behavior was described by the state equations was discussed.

    Decomposition of the nodal conductance matrix of a planar resistive grid and derivation of its eigenvalues and eigenvectors using the kronecker product and sum with application to cnn image filters
    (IEEE, 2016-12) Tavşanoğlu, Ahmet Vedat
    It is shown that an (M× N)-node planar resistive grid can be decomposed into two sub-grids; one made up of M N-node horizontal and the other of N M-node vertical linear resistive grids which corresponds to decomposing its nodal conductance matrix (NCM) into the Kronecker sum of the NCMs of horizontal and vertical linear grids. This enables the analytical expressions of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the NCMs of the sub-grids as well as those of the planar resistive grid to be expressed in terms of those of the two linear grids, whose analytical expressions are well known. For a Cellular Neural Network (CNN) Gabor-type filter (GTF) we define generalized nodal conductance matrices (GNCMs) that correspond to the NCMs of the resistive sub-grids, show that each Kronecker decomposition has a counterpart in CNN GTF and prove that each GNCM, its counterpart NCM and the corresponding temporal state matrices are related through unitary diagonal similarity transformations. Consequently, we prove that the eigenvalues of the temporal state matrix of a spatial band-pass CNN GTF are the same as those of its counterpart spatial low-pass CNN image filter, hence their temporal transient behaviors are similar in settling to a forced response.

    Design of a third generation real-time cellular neural network emulator
    (IEEE, 2014) Yıldız, Nerhun; Cesur, Evren; Tavşanoğlu, Ahmet Vedat
    In this paper, the features of the next generation Real-Time Cellular Neural Network Processor (RTCNNP-v3) are discussed. The RTCNNP-v2 structure is the only CNN implementation that is reported to be capable of processing full-HD 1080p@60 (1920 x 1080 resolution at 60 Hz frame rate) video images in real-time, due to its fully-pipelined architecture, however, it has some weaknesses like the inability to divide the processing in spatial domain, record and recall intermediate results to an external memory and has some issues in its internal memory coding. Those shortcomings are to be addressed in the next design of our CNN emulator - RTCNNP-v3, which will increase the range of applications and enable the implementation to match the requirements of the cutting-edge movie production technologies like UHD (4K) and the future FUHD (8K).

    Realization of processing blocks of CNN based CASA system on CPU and FPGA
    (IEEE, 2014) Şavkay, Osman Levent; Cesur, Evren; Yıldız, Nerhun; Yalçın, Mustak Erhan; Tavşanoğlu, Ahmet Vedat
    In this paper, hardware optimization of the preprocessing and software implementation of the processing blocks of a computer aided semen analysis (CASA) system are proposed, which is also implemented on an FPGA and ARM device as a working prototype. The software implementation of the track initialization, track maintenance, data validation and classification blocks of the processing part are implemented on a Zynq7000 ARM Cortex-A9 processor. In the preprocessing part, a real-time cellular neural network (CNN) emulator (RTCNNP-v2) is used for the realization of the image processing algorithms, whose regular, flexible and reconfigurable infrastructure simplifies the prototyping process. The CASA system introduced in this paper is capable of processing full-HD 1080p@60 (1080 x 1920) video images in real-time.

    Hücresel sinir ağları kullanılarak el yazısı karakter tanıma uygulaması
    (IEEE, 2013-06-13) Çalık, Nurullah; Cesur, Evren; Tavşanoğlu, Ahmet Vedat
    El yazısı karakter tanıma, örüntü tanımanın önemli alanlarından biridir. Bu alanın kapsamında önemli belgelerin , arşivlerin ve diğer yazılı metinlerin sayısal ortamlara aktarılması yada yazıcının tanınması gibi problemler çözülmeye çalışılır. Bu problemler için birçok algoritma geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen bu algoritmalardan istenen, yüksek doğruluk oranının yanında FPGA gibi sayısal tasarımlara uygulanabilir olmasıdır. Bu nedenle sınıflandırma için kullanılan özellik vektörünün çıkartılmasında Gabor-benzeri Hücresel Sinir Ağı (HSA) filtreleri kullanılmıştır. Bu filtrelerin FPGA üzerinde verimli algoritmalar ile gerçeklenebilmektedir [10]. Bu sayede FIR türünde tasarlanan Gabor filtrelerine göre işlem süresi açısından daha verimli ve büyük harfler üzerinde doğruluk yüzdesi % 80 civarlarında olan bir algoritma geliştirilmiştir.

    Architecture of a fully pipelined real-time cellular neural network emulatort
    (IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2015-01) Yıldız, Nerhun; Cesur, Evren; Kayaer, Kamer; Tavşanoğlu, Ahmet Vedat; Alpay, Murathan
    In this paper, architecture of a Real-Time Cellular Neural Network (CNN) Processor (RTCNNP-v2) is given and the implementation results are discussed. The proposed architecture has a fully pipelined structure, capable of processing full-HD 1080p@60 (1920 1080 resolution at 60 Hz frame rate, 124.4 MHz visible pixel rate) video streams, which is implemented on both high-end and low-cost FPGA devices, Altera Stratix IV GX 230, and Cyclone III C 25, respectively. Many features of the architecture are designed to be either pre-synthesis configurable or runtime programmable, which makes the processor extremely flexible, reusable, scalable, and practical.
