    Univariate margin tree
    (Springer, 2010) Yıldız, Olcay Taner
    In many pattern recognition applications, first decision trees are used due to their simplicity and easily interpretable nature. In this paper, we propose a new decision tree learning algorithm called univariate margin tree, where for each continuous attribute, the best split is found using convex optimization. Our simulation results on 47 datasets show that the novel margin tree classifier performs at least as good as C4.5 and LDT with a similar time complexity. For two class datasets it generates smaller trees than C4.5 and LDT without sacrificing from accuracy, and generates significantly more accurate trees than C4.5 and LDT for multiclass datasets with one-vs-rest methodology.

    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.

    Efficient quality of multimedia experience using perceptual quality metrics
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2016) Gaurav, Rahul; Ateş, Hasan Fehmi
    Although there are very few metrics which correlate well with the Human Visual System (HVS), most of them do not. We extensively studied about the Video Quality Assessment (VQA) of 2D svideos for enhancing the Quality of Experience (QoE) using better Quality of Service (QoS). We propose a solution which helps us to find a high correlation between HVS and the objective metrics using Perceptual Quality Metrics (PQM). The motive behind this work is to introduce an objective metric that is adequate to predict the Mean Opinion Score (MOS) of distorted video sequences based on the Full Reference (FR) method.

    A novel image compression method based on classified energy and pattern blocks: initial results
    (Springer, 2010) Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this work, a new method for the compression of the images based on the generation of the so called classified energy and pattern blocks is introduced and the initial results are presented. The initials results proved that the new method provides considerable image compression ratios and image quality even at low bit rates.

    A novel hybrid electrocardiogram signal compression algorithm with low bit-rate
    (Springer, 2010) Gürkan, Hakan; Güz, Ümit; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this paper, a novel hybrid Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal compression algorithm based on the generation process of the Variable-Length Classified Signature and Envelope Vector Sets (VL-CSEVS) is proposed. Assessment results reveal that the proposed algorithm achieves high compression ratios with low level reconstruction error while preserving diagnostic information in the reconstructed ECG signal. The proposed algorithm also slightly outperforms others for the same test dataset.
