The analysis and design of urban near-home environments according to psycho-social needs and behavior of human beings
(Bilkent University, 1996)In this study, the design of urban near-home environments is examined considering the social and psychological needs of human beings as well as human spatial behavior. After an introduction to the concepts such as environment, ... -
Can you really anonymize the donors of genomic data in today’s digital world?
(Springer, 2016-09)The rapid progress in genome sequencing technologies leads to availability of high amounts of genomic data. Accelerating the pace of biomedical breakthroughs and discoveries necessitates not only collecting millions of ... -
Children's mobile communicative practices and locational privacy
(Oxford University Press, 2022-09-01)Children start using smartphones increasingly from early ages. This makes it more difficult for them to develop an understanding of online privacy and managing their personal data. Many parents monitor and regulate children's ... -
Cryptographic solutions for credibility and liability issues of genomic data
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019)In this work, we consider a scenario that includes an individual sharing his genomic data (or results obtained from his genomic data) with a service provider. In this scenario, (i) the service provider wants to make sure ... -
A demonstration of privacy-preserving aggregate queries for optimal location selection
(IEEE, 2018)In recent years, service providers, such as mobile operators providing wireless services, collected location data in enormous extent with the increase of the usages of mobile phones. Vertical businesses, such as banks, may ... -
Effects of different lighting arrangements on space perception
(Taylor & Francis, 1999)The idea to improve the quality of lighting design in interior spaces has gained importance in the last years. This experimental study concentrateson the quality of lighting and the relation between lighting arrangements ... -
Effects of different lighting arrangements on space perception
(Bilkent University, 1997)The importance given to the quality of lighting design has increased in recent years. This makes lighting design more an art than an engineering problem and it is closely related to the way a space is perceived. It is ... -
Entering watch dogs*: evaluating privacy risks against large-scale facial search and data collection
(IEEE, 2021-07-19)Discovering friends on online platforms have become relatively easier with the introduction of contact discovery and ability to search using phone numbers. Such features conveniently connect users by acting as unique tokens ... -
Genome reconstruction attacks on genomic data-sharing beacons
(Bilkent University, 2021-07)Sharing genome data in a privacy-preserving way stands as a major bottleneck in front of the scientific progress promised by the big data era in genomics. A community-driven protocol named genomic data-sharing beacon ... -
“Good fences make good neighbors”: territorial dividers ıncrease user satisfaction and efficiency in library study spaces
(Elsevier Ltd, 2016)We were consulted to respond to complaints from library users regarding the lack of workspace in a university library hall during busy periods. A behavior mapping study and a survey involving 78 students suggested that the ... -
An inference attack on genomic data using kinship, complex correlations, and phenotype information
(IEEE, 2018)Abstract—Individuals (and their family members) share (partial) genomic data on public platforms. However, using special characteristics of genomic data, background knowledge that can be obtained from the Web, and family ... -
Inference attacks against kin genomic privacy
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017)Genomic data poses serious interdependent risks: your data might also leak information about your family members' data. Methods attackers use to infer genomic information, as well as recent proposals for enhancing genomic ... -
Kişisel verilerin korunması ve rekabet hukuku boyutuyla büyük veri
(Bilkent University, 2020-12)İçinde bulunduğumuz bilgi çağında yaşanan teknolojik gelişmeler ekonominin dijitalleşmesi sürecini beraberinde getirmiştir. Özellikle internet kullanımının yaygınlaşmasıyla birlikte ekonomik faaliyetlerin çevrim içi ... -
Multirelational k-anonymity
(2009)k-Anonymity protects privacy by ensuring that data cannot be linked to a single individual. In a k-anonymous data set, any identifying information occurs in at least k tuples. Much research has been done to modify a ... -
Of algorithms, data and ethics: a response to Andrew Bennett
(SAGE Publications Ltd., 2015)Developments in the field of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) will have a significant impact on the way we study international relations. Opportunities related to data processing and automated reasoning ... -
Privacy-preserving aggregate queries for optimal location selection
(IEEE, 2019)Today, vast amounts of location data are collected by various service providers. These location data owners have a good idea of where their users are most of the time. Other businesses also want to use this information for ... -
Privacy-preserving computation and robust watermarking techniques for healthcare data
(Bilkent University, 2018-07)Health and genomic data is sensitive in terms of carrying private information about individuals. One can infer inherited/genetic disorders, their occurrence probabilities, information about race, and kinship by analyzing ... -
Quadratic privacy-signaling games and the MMSE ınformation bottleneck problem for gaussian sources
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022-05-23)We investigate a privacy-signaling game problem in which a sender with privacy concerns observes a pair of correlated random vectors which are modeled as jointly Gaussian. The sender aims to hide one of these random vectors ... -
Relationships between density, crowding, privacy and dormitory satisfaction : the case of Bilkent University dormitories
(Bilkent University, 2016-07)Many students move to different cities for their university education. This brings formidable experiences to those who are separated from their family. Living in a dormitory teaches them to live, interact and coordinate ... -
The relevance patterns of public and privacy for digital natives in Turkey
(TRT, 2016)The wide-spread and increasing communication via social media causes an entanglement between publicity and privacy. According to the meta-process of today’s mediatized communication as described by Krotz, the user-generated ...
