Yayın A novel similarity based unsupervised technique for training convolutional filters(IEEE, 2023-05-17) Erkoç, Tuğba; Eskil, Mustata TanerAchieving satisfactory results with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) depends on how effectively the filters are trained. Conventionally, an appropriate number of filters is carefully selected, the filters are initialized with a proper initialization method and trained with backpropagation over several epochs. This training scheme requires a large labeled dataset, which is costly and time-consuming to obtain. In this study, we propose an unsupervised approach that extracts convolutional filters from a given dataset in a self-organized manner by processing the training set only once without using backpropagation training. The proposed method allows for the extraction of filters from a given dataset in the absence of labels. In contrast to previous studies, we no longer need to select the best number of filters and a suitable filter weight initialization scheme. Applying this method to the MNIST, EMNIST-Digits, Kuzushiji-MNIST, and Fashion-MNIST datasets yields high test performances of 99.19%, 99.39%, 95.03%, and 90.11%, respectively, without applying backpropagation training or using any preprocessed and augmented data.Yayın New sufficient criteria for global robust stability of neural networks with multiple time delays(Işık University Press, 2012) Yücel, Eylem; Arık, SabriIn this paper, we study global robust asymptotic stability of the equilibrium point for neural networks with multiple time delays. By employing suitable Lyapunov functionals, we derive a set of delay independent sufficient conditions for global robust asymptotic stability of this class of neural networks. Some examples are constructed to compare the reported results with the related existing results. This comparison proves that our results establish a new set of robust stability criteria for delayed neural networks. It is also demonstrated that the reported results can be easily verified as they can be expressed in terms of the network parameters only.Yayın ANN activation function estimators for homomorphic encrypted inference(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025-06-13) Harb, Mhd Raja Abou; Çeliktaş, BarışHomomorphic Encryption (HE) enables secure computations on encrypted data, facilitating machine learning inference in sensitive environments such as healthcare and finance. However, efficiently handling non-linear activation functions, specifically Sigmoid and Tanh, remains a significant computational challenge for encrypted inference using Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). This study introduces a lightweight, ANN-based estimator designed to accurately approximate activation functions under homomorphic encryption. Unlike traditional polynomial and piecewise linear approximations, the proposed ANN estimators achieve superior accuracy with lower computational overhead associated with bootstrapping or high-degree polynomial techniques. These estimators are trained on plaintext data and seamlessly integrated into encrypted inference pipelines, significantly outperforming conventional methods. Experimental evaluations demonstrate notable improvements, with ANN estimators enhancing accuracy by approximately 2% for Sigmoid and up to 73% for Tanh functions, improving F1-scores by approximately 2% for Sigmoid and up to 88% for Tanh, and markedly reducing Mean Square Error (MSE) by up to 96% compared to polynomial approximations. The ANN estimator achieves an accuracy of 97.70% and an AUC of 0.9997 when integrated into a CNN architecture on the MNIST dataset, and an accuracy of 85.25% with an AUC of 0.9459 on the UCI Heart Disease dataset during ciphertext inference. These results underscore the estimator’s practical effectiveness and computational feasibility, making it suitable for secure and efficient ANN inference in encrypted environments.Yayın Automated diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease using OCT and OCTA: a systematic review(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024-08-06) Turkan, Yasemin; Tek, Faik Boray; Arpacı, Fatih; Arslan, Ozan; Toslak, Devrim; Bulut, Mehmet; Yaman, AylinRetinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) have emerged as promising, non-invasive, and cost-effective modalities for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, a comprehensive review of automated deep learning techniques for diagnosing AD or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) using OCT/OCTA data is lacking. We addressed this gap by conducting a systematic review using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. We systematically searched databases, including Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science, and identified 16 important studies from an initial set of 4006 references. We then analyzed these studies through a structured framework, focusing on the key aspects of deep learning workflows for AD/MCI diagnosis using OCT-OCTA. This included dataset curation, model training, and validation methodologies. Our findings indicate a shift towards employing end-to-end deep learning models to directly analyze OCT/OCTA images in diagnosing AD/MCI, moving away from traditional machine learning approaches. However, we identified inconsistencies in the data collection methods across studies, leading to varied outcomes. We emphasize the need for longitudinal studies on early AD and MCI diagnosis, along with further research on interpretability tools to enhance model accuracy and reliability for clinical translation.
