    • Activity recognition invariant to sensor orientation with wearable motion sensors 

      Yurtman, A.; Barshan, B. (MDPI AG, 2017)
      Most activity recognition studies that employ wearable sensors assume that the sensors are attached at pre-determined positions and orientations that do not change over time. Since this is not the case in practice, it is ...

      In this paper, we propose a new energy efficient neural network with the universal approximation property over space of Lebesgue integrable functions. This network, called additive neural network, is very suitable for ...

    • Fall detection and classification using wearable motion sensors 

      Turan, Mustafa Şahin (Bilkent University, 2017-09)
      Effective fall-detection systems are vital in mitigating severe medical and economical consequences of falls to people in the fall risk groups. One class of such systems is wearable sensor based fall-detection systems. ...

    • Generalizing predicates with string arguments 

      Cicekli, I.; Cicekli, N. K. (Springer New York LLC, 2006-06)
      The least general generalization (LGG) of strings may cause an over-generalization in the generalization process of the clauses of predicates with string arguments. We propose a specific generalization (SG) for strings to ...

    • Inducing translation templates with type constraints 

      Cicekli, I. (Springer, 2005)
      This paper presents a generalization technique that induces translation templates from a given set of translation examples by replacing differing parts in the examples with typed variables. Since the type of each variable ...

    • Induction of logical relations based on specific generalization of strings 

      Uzun, Yasin (Bilkent University, 2007)
      Learning logical relations from examples expressed as first order facts has been studied extensively by the Inductive Logic Programming research. Learning with positive-only data may cause overgeneralization of examples ...

    • Investigation of Sensor Placement for Accurate Fall Detection 

      Ntanasis, P.; Pippa, E.; ÖZdemir, A. T.; Barshan, B.; Megalooikonomou, V. (Springer Verlag, 2017)
