In this study, the wind speed prediction model is created that gives a minimum error for different hidden layer neuron numbers and delay step numbers. Using the one-minute time series, the prediction of the next wind speed is performed with the NAR neural network model. The predicted values of wind speed obtained are compared with predicted values of wind speed obtained with filter methods. For different window functions and lengths, wind speed prediction is made using filters with different weight coefficients. For the number of hidden layer neurons is 14 and the number of delay steps is 10, MAE, MSE and RMSE values are calculated . . .as 0.0315, 0.0019, 0.0445, respectively, with NAR neural network. It is seen that the proposed method for the wind speed dataset has a higher prediction performance than thefilter methods. © 2017 IEEE Daha fazlası Daha az

This paper proposes the use of Stockwell transform for the analysis of white-light interferograms. The performance of Stockwell transform is assessed from the statistical parameters obtained by analyzing the simulated and experimental interferograms. Furthermore, the sensitivity of Stockwell transform to sampling, intensity and the phase noises is investigated. Results show that sampling and intensity noises significantly affect the performance of Stockwell transform. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

This paper proposes the use of single sideband modulation technique with Gaussian and band pass fillers for the analysis of the thermal lens fringe to obtain the map of the refractive index change. Maps of the refractive index and phase change are achieved by using single side band modulation technique with Gaussian and band pass filters. Consequently it is seen that single side band modulation technique with Gaussian filter shows more accurate results.

By virtue of recent developments in brain measurement technology, it is now recognized that information processing in brain includes not only neurons but also astrocytes. For this reason, to illustrate the effects of astrocyte on information processing in neuronal systems, we research the weak signal detection performance of the Hodgkin–Huxley neuron under the effect of astrocyte. It is found that the weak signal detection performance of the neuron exhibits the stochastic resonance phenomenon depending on noise intensity, where the presence of astrocyte with an optimal coupling strength significantly increases the detection performa . . .nce of the neuron when compared the one without astrocyte. The obtained results also reveal that there is an optimal weak signal frequency ensuring the best detection performance. Besides, we show that the colored noise exhibits a better performance than white Gaussian noise on improving the weak signal detection capacity of the neuron; moreover, the weak signal detection performance of the neuron demonstrates a resonance-like dependence on the correlation time of the noise. Finally, we investigate the effects of calcium channel noise. Although the calcium channel noise generally reduces the weak signal detection performance of the neuron, the optimal coupling strength warranting the best detection performance critically depends on its intensity. © 2019, Springer Nature B.V Daha fazlası Daha az

In this paper,a fuzzy interference and an adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference system models have been presented in order to accelerate designing of the digital holographic setup without experiment. The setting parameters of experimental holographic setup, which affect the quality of images obtained from reconstructed holograms, are predicted digitally by proposed models before the recording process. Hence, we reduce the required time for designing of digital holographic setup with optimization process. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference system model for the optimization of the digital holographic setup is first attempt in the liter . . .ature. The accuracy of the proposed models is examined by comparing the presented models and actual calculated experimental root-mean-square values. As a result, the accuracy of the adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference system shows the better performance than the fuzzy interference system. Moreover, the design of experimental setup can be occurred numerically in a short time by using adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference system models. © 2018, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature Daha fazlası Daha az

In this study, the optimization of the digital holography setup is achieved by a using fuzzy logic prediction system. In fact, when this optimization process is experimentally performed, some parameters are changed in the setup. These parameters affect directly the obtained image quality after a reconstruction process, which is determined by normalized root mean square. The aim of this study is to achieve the optimization of digital holographic setup by using both experimental and fuzzy logic prediction systems. Furthermore, the required time during the experimental optimization can be lowered by using a numerical method like the fu . . .zzy logic prediction system. Here, the experimental optimization results and the optimization results obtained by the fuzzy logic prediction system are compared. It is offered that the designed experimental system can be optimized by using an artificial intelligent tool. The applied fuzzy logic prediction model is used the first time for optimization of hologram recording setup. As a result, it is reached a conclusion that the optimization of digital holographic setup can be numerically performed by the fuzzy logic prediction system. Moreover, while digital holographic setup is experimentally designed, the required time for optimization is reduced, as well. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved Daha fazlası Daha az

Chaotic Resonance (CR), whereby the response of a nonlinear system to a weak signal can be enhanced by the assistance of chaotic activities that can be intrinsic or extrinsic, has recently been studied widely. In this paper, the effects of extrinsic chaotic signal on the weak signal detection performance of the Hodgkin-Huxley neuron are examined via numerical simulation. The chaotic signal has been derived from Lorenz system and is injected to neuron as a current. Obtained results have revealed that the H-H neuron exhibits CR phenomenon depending on the chaotic current intensity. Also, we have found an optimal chaotic current intens . . .ity ensuring the best detection of the weak signal in H-H neuron via CR. In addition, we have calculated the maximal Lyapunov exponent to determine whether the H-H neuron is in chaotic regime. After determining the state of the neuron, we have shown that the H-H neuron can be able to detect the weak signal even if it is in the chaotic regime. Finally, we have investigated the effects of chaotic activity on the collective behavior of H-H neurons in small-world networks and have concluded that CR effect is a robust phenomenon which can be observed both in single neurons and neuronal networks Daha fazlası Daha az
