The users must make physical contact with the devices and have a restricted away because of connection with wire to control computer by using these devices. Traditional communication devices for computer-person can't provide user wireless computer control without any physical. In this study, Computer monitoring and controlling with hand movements are implemented by using image processing and computer vision techniques to minimize these limitations. In proposed study, firstly it is expected that the user enters camera's field of view using computer camera. face of user entering the camera's field of view is detected with Haar Classifier. Hand region is detected by finding the dynamic range of skin color in YCbCr color space from the facial region. The hand region is tracked with Biggest Blob Tracking Technique, and features of hand are extracted by using Convexity Defect-Hull during tracking. Finally, position of mouse is controlled according to features of hand region, and Computer monitoring and controlling with hand movements are implemented by tracking hand gestures.","PeriodicalId":384835,"journal":{"name":"2014 22nd Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129429735","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}

Linear models such as Finite Impulse Response (FIR), Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) and Autoregressive (AR) are used in the situations that the input-output relation is signified through linear equivalence. However because of the nonlinear structure of the systems in real life, nonlinear models are developed. Volterra, Bilinear and polynomial autoregressive (PAR) are the examples of nonlinear models. In literature, there are also block oriented models to cascade the linear and nonlinear systems such as Hammerstein, Wiener and Hammerstein Wiener. These models are preferred because of practical use and effective prediction of wide nonlinear process. In this study, system identification applications of Hammerstein model that is cascade of nonlinear Volterra model and linear FIR model. Least mean Square (LMS) and Recursive Least Square (RLS) algorithms are used to identify the Hammerstein model parameters. Furthermore, The results are compared with the FIR model and Volterra model results to identify the success of Hammerstein model.","PeriodicalId":384835,"journal":{"name":"2014 22nd Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129678746","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}

The mathematical analysis of music requires features for discriminating; East-West; Turkish-Arab-Chinese-Indian; blues-jazz-classical music etc. The widely used twelve-tone equal temperament (12-TET) interval system for the classical music and the just tones preferred by the East is readily distinguishable by time-frequency analyses. Unfortunately, this is not exactly true when the analyzed music are all based on those harmonics, namely `the fifths' where Turkish maqams are good examples. The musical interval systems must be analyzed and for each type, distinguishable features should be found. In this work, the problem of identification of Turkish maqams is examined. The various lists for maqams are unified on a single list, possibly filtering out some of the possible misleading information. The latest and widely accepted Arel-Ezgi-Uzdilek interval system and its missing maqams; `Dik Geveşt' and `Dik Puselik' are analyzed. The just 37 interval system which includes those missing maqams and as well as forgotten maqams of the past is proposed.","PeriodicalId":384835,"journal":{"name":"2014 22nd Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130389867","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}

With our study a new experimental approach method for congestion relief for extra ordinary situations is proposed which is tested at a GSM operator network to keep the quality of network sustainable and at maximum efficiency.

In this study, we investigated performance of three existing approaches for toponym recognition on Turkish tweets. We conducted experiments for measuring performance of the existing approaches on a sample data set. Best results have been obtained with the NER algorithm by Küçük et.al.
