    Strategies for the evolution of sex
    (American Institute of Physics Inc., 2001-12) Tüzel, Erkan; Sevim, Volkan; Erzan, Ayşe
    The maintenance of a macroscopic sexual population is addressed. As a scenario, the mechanism of random conversion to sex, in the presence of a constant rate of mutation is examined. This scenario is very closely related to "coevolution of cell senescence and diploid sexual reproduction in unicellular organisms." In this work, a "senescence clock" ticks off a finite lifetime for each bit string. Sexual reproduction resets the senescence of clock; unless this happens after a number of generations of cloning, the offspring stop dividing and die.

    Circuit model for given reflectance data constructed with mixed lumped and distributed elements for high speed/high frequency communication systems
    (IEEE, 2005) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Şengül, Metin; Kılınç, Ali; Aksen, Ahmet
    In this paper, a reflectance-based "non linear interpolation method" is presented to model the measured or computed data, obtained from a "passive one-port physical device" using mixed lumped and distributed elements. Mixed element model is constructed with cascade connection of series inductors [L], commensurate transmission lines or so called Unit Elements [UE] and shunt capacitors[C]. Basis of the new model rests on the numerical generation of the scattering parameters of the lossless two-port constructed with cascade connection of simple [L]-[UE]-[C] elements which describes a lossless 2-port in Darlington sense. The new modeling technique does not require direct optimization of the circuit elements of the selected topology. Rather, two-variable reflection coefficient is directly determined by means of a non linear but "convergence guaranteed" interpolation process to best fit the given data. A low-pass filter input reflection coefficient modeling example is included to exhibit the utilization of the proposed modeling method.

    A new software tool to model measured RF-data with optimum circuit topology
    (IEEE, 2004) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Kılınç, Ali; Aksen, Ahmet
    In this paper a new S/W tool is presented to model measured RF data employing immitance interpolation techniques. This S/W tool also employs a recently developed sub-routine, which generates circuit models with least number of circuit elements by means of a novel numerical approach. Furthermore, an analytic procedure is introduced and implemented within the new S/W package to select proper sample-points subject to interpolation which in turn controls the interpolation error in the "near min-max sense" or the so-called "Chebyshev Sense". Hence, the optimum circuit topology for the given data is constructed. An example is presented to exhibit the utilization of the new tool. This new S/W package may be utilized as the front end to the commercially available Design and Analysis Packages such as ANSOFT, EAGELWARE etc.

    A new speech modeling method: SYMPES
    (IEEE, 2006) Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In 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.

    A novel fast algorithm for 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 these centroids. By using this approach, the drawbacks by means of the size of the sets, speed of the reconstruction process (computational complexity) which arise in the 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 the speech signals by using language and speaker independent predefined functions sets
    (IEEE, 2004) Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this paper a new modeling method of speech signals is introduced. The proposed method is based on the generation of the so-called Predefined Signature S={s(R)(t)} and Envelope Function E = {e(K)(t)} Sets (PSEFS). These function sets are independent of any speaker and any language. Once the speech signals are divided into frames with selected lengths, then each frame signal piece X-i(t) is synthesized by means of the mathematical form of x(i)(t)=C(i)e(K)(t)s(R)(t). In this representation, C-i is called the frame coefficient, s(R)(t) and e(K)(t) are properly assigned from the PSEFS respectively. It is shown that the proposed method provides fast reconstruction and substantial compression with acceptable hearing quality.

    A novel representation method for electromyogram (EMG) signal with predefined signature and envelope functional bank
    (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.

    Reflectance data model with mixed lumped and distributed elements for wireless communication systems
    (IEEE, 2005) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Şengül, Metin; Kılınç, Ali; Aksen, Ahmet
    In this paper, a new method is presented to model the given reflectance data obtained from a "passive one-port physical device", as a lossless two port consists of lumped and distributed elements. Basis of the new method rests on the interpolation of the given data as a realizable bounded-real (BR) reflection function in two variables. The desired circuit model is then obtained as the result of the synthesis of this function in two kinds of elements; namely, distributed and lumped circuit elements. An algorithm is presented to generate the circuit model step by step and an example is also included to exhibit the utilization of the new modeling algorithm.
