For this purpose, weather prediction models were created using Random Forest Algorithm, Support Vector Regression, XGBoost and K-Nearest Neighbor Algorithm, which are popular machine learning algorithms, and the results were compared using various metrics. The best prediction result in all the metrics used was obtained with the Support Vector Regression method.","PeriodicalId":115446,"journal":{"name":"2022 30th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116025041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the second stage of the study, dispersion and its types, which are the most important determining factors that determine the transmission speed and distance of the fiber, are briefly explained, and a simulation in single-mode fiber is prepared in order to better display the dispersion by using a computer program. In the simulation, the effect of loss and dispersion on 4 light pulses was investigated. As a result of the studies, it has been determined how the bit error rate (BER) occurs in fiber optic communication. Finally, the applications that will minimize the dispersion and loss in the fiber are emphasized.","PeriodicalId":115446,"journal":{"name":"2022 30th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116404682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within the scope of this study, three different models were produced using two different datasets, using only the first clustering method, only the second clustering method, and both the first and second clustering methods. In this study, the Fuzzy C-Mean Clustering algorithm, which is one of the most efficient methods used to reduce the number of rules in the rule base of the hybrid intelligent system is compared with the Highly Connected Subgraphs algorithm. The models were compared over the square root of the mean square error, the number of nodes, the number of fuzzy rules, and the mean training time. As a result of the study, the second clustering method formed the most efficient result in terms of error rate with 0.084 and 0,008. It has been observed that the average training time of this method is approximately 31 times longer than the first clustering method mentioned above, and approximately 52 times longer than the model in which the first and second clustering methods are used together. In this study, it has been seen that the first clustering method is more successful in reducing the rule base by optimizing the second method by determining more suitable cluster centers. Based on the experimental results obtained in our study, these two different clustering methods were compared over three different models.

These improvements cause UAVs to be detected more easily, which limits their effectiveness in military usage. Although the reduction of the radar cross-section (RCS) can provide a solution to this issue, the studies regarding that is insufficient in the literature. In this study, a shaping method is recommended to reduce the RCS of UAVs, and it is shown the method is effective to address the problem. Firstly, using a simulation tool, an UAV model is designed from simple shapes and the model is validated by comparing it with the ones in literature. Secondly, RCS values are measured using vertical and horizontal polarization throughout 360 degrees by incrementing the aspect angle by one degree in X-Band using the CST Studio Suite environment. Then, considering the hardware and aerodynamic requirements as well as limitations of the UAV model, a shaping technique is applied to the body, legs and the hollow parts of the UAV model with parametric simulations. The results show that the recommended shaping technique can provide a significant reduction in the RCS of an UAV.","PeriodicalId":115446,"journal":{"name":"2022 30th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"2 3-4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122184877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By using the fundamental frequency analysis the dominant frequency was found and with that frequency an optimal length for a window to be shifted across the whole signal for further purposes. And the turning region was extracted by using the Pearson correlation coefficient with the segments that overlapped by shifting the selected window over the whole signal, after getting the walking segments the stride time parameter is calculated by using a simple peak-picking algorithm. The stance and swing periods of the pseudo-steps, which emerged as a result of the double step time calculation algorithm, were found with the dynamic time warping method, and the ratio of the stance phase in a step to the whole step was calculated as a percentage.
