As the first step of automatic image interpretation systems, automatic detection of the targets should be accurate and fast. Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) is the most popular target detection framework for Synthetic ...

In selecting the best mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation the important issue is to figure out how to evaluate the performance of each candidate formulation in terms of selected criteria. The main objective ...

With the improvements in information systems, intrusion detection systems (IDS) become more important. IDS can be thought as a classification problem. An important step of classification applications is feature selection ...

The combination of potentiometric methods with multivariate calibration techniques allows complex mixtures to be analyzed. In this study, a new method was developed and reported for simultaneous determination of copper(II) ...

In the present study, two new donor-acceptor-donor-type molecules were synthesized and the electro-optical properties of the resulting monomers and their corresponding polymers were investigated. Thiophene was selected as ...

In this study, a novel sparsity-driven weighted ensemble classifier (SDWEC) that improves classification accuracy and minimizes the number of classifiers is proposed. Using pre-trained classifiers, an ensemble in which ...

Improvements in technologies applied in material field and continual increase in the number of material types force to develop and use new approaches in material selection. In this paper, a multi-criteria decision support ...

Finding similarities and differences between metagenomic samples within large repositories has been rather a significant issue for researchers. Over the recent years, content-based retrieval has been suggested by various ...

To improve the performance of marketing efforts, marketers seek new ways of attracting customers. Individual marketing is an efficient way of communicating with individuals. Meeting the individual customers' expectations ...

Lung nodules are frequently observed in cases of cancer. Nodules can be monitored with technologies such as computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However. x-ray imaging is a low-cost method as well ...
