    GIS aided vulnerability assessment for roads
    (Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2022-04-21) Çalışkan, Berna; Atahan, Ali Osman; Kesten, Ali Sercan
    Road networks are vulnerable to natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes and forest fires which can adversely affect the travel on the network. However, not all road links equally affect the travel conditions in a given network; typically some links are more critical to the network functioning than the others. The first stage of study involves the investigation of geological conditions. Image classification used for extracting information classes from ‘Geological Map of Istanbul area’ image file. The resulting raster layer used to create thematic map. A reclassification was performed for lithologic types. The second stage involves analyzing topological situation. A slope map prepared and classified according to percentage of slope values. The third phase is the analysis and interpretation of the accumulated data to establish suitable and applicable road vulnerability scores. The information in the source data for each vulnerability factor are classified into three different vulnerability scores: +2 (considerably increases vulnerability), +1 (increases vulnerability) and 0 (does not increase vulnerability) by using a vulnerability score table. The study area was categorized into three different traffic analysis zones as: (1) least favorable area; (2) favorable area; (3) most favorable area. Vulnerability values obtained to measure serviceability of critical links in dense urban road networks and applies them to the case of ‘Beyoğlu’ region. Thematic layers were prepared using the Geographic Information System (GIS), and they were then combined to produce the serviceability of road links in the ‘Beyoğlu’ region. Consequently, A site specific vulnerability index is proposed, considering the serviceability of road links. A conceptual flowchart of the GIS processing steps taken to obtain the vulnerability index is illustrated.

    Regularizing soft decision trees
    (Springer, 2013) Yıldız, Olcay Taner; Alpaydın, Ahmet İbrahim Ethem
    Recently, we have proposed a new decision tree family called soft decision trees where a node chooses both its left and right children with different probabilities as given by a gating function, different from a hard decision node which chooses one of the two. In this paper, we extend the original algorithm by introducing local dimension reduction via L-1 and L-2 regularization for feature selection and smoother fitting. We compare our novel approach with the standard decision tree algorithms over 27 classification data sets. We see that both regularized versions have similar generalization ability with less complexity in terms of number of nodes, where L-2 seems to work slightly better than L-1.

    Machine learning-based model categorization using textual and structural features
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022-09-08) Khalilipour, Alireza; Bozyiğit, Fatma; Utku, Can; Challenger, Moharram
    Model Driven Engineering (MDE), where models are the core elements in the entire life cycle from the specification to maintenance phases, is one of the promising techniques to provide abstraction and automation. However, model management is another challenging issue due to the increasing number of models, their size, and their structural complexity. So that the available models should be organized by modelers to be reused and overcome the development of the new and more complex models with less cost and effort. In this direction, many studies are conducted to categorize models automatically. However, most of the studies focus either on the textual data or structural information in the intelligent model management, leading to less precision in the model management activities. Therefore, we utilized a model classification using baseline machine learning approaches on a dataset including 555 Ecore metamodels through hybrid feature vectors including both textual and structural information. In the proposed approach, first, the textual information of each model has been summarized in its elements through text processing as well as the ontology of synonyms within a specific domain. Then, the performances of machine learning classifiers were observed on two different variants of the datasets. The first variant includes only textual features (represented both in TF-IDF and word2vec representations), whereas the second variant consists of the determined structural features and textual features. It was finally concluded that each experimented machine learning algorithm gave more successful prediction performance on the variant containing structural features. The presented model yields promising results for the model classification task with a classification accuracy of 89.16%.
