Konuşma Duygu Tanıma Uygulamalarında Hiper Parametre Optimizasyonu ile Derin Öğrenme Metotlarının Geliştirilmesi
No full textBu çalışmada derin öğrenme uygulamalarında oldukça yeni ve önemli bir aşama olan hiper parametre ayarlama metotlarının bir karşılaştırılması verilecektir. Veriseti olarak yeni duygu verisetlerinden NEMO duygusal konuşma veriseti kullanılacak olup, KerasTuner ile CNN, LSTM ve DNN modelleri Rassal arama, Hiperkomite ve Bayesçi optimizasyon metotları kullanılarak karşılaştırılacaktır. Genel olarak makine öğrenmesi ve özellikle de derin öğrenme uygulamalarında başarılı bir model üretebilmek zaman ve hesaplama gücü açısından oldukça pahalı ve zorlu bir işlem olarak araştırmacıların karşısına çıkmaktadır. Hiper parametre optimizasyonunun genel olarak iki temel aşamadan oluştuğu kabul edilebilir. Birinci aşamada öncelikle değişkenlik gösteren parametrelerin alabilecekleri değerlere dayalı bir arama uzayı belirlenir. Bu parametreler öğrenme katsayısı, nöron sayısı, katman sayısı, aktivasyon fonksiyonu ve benzeri değişkenler olabilir. İkinci aşama ise bu parametreleri kullanarak yapay zekâ modellerini oluşturur ve belirlenen bir başarı kriterine göre test eder. Optimizör bu modelleri çalıştırırken işlemi hızlandırmak için değişik algoritmalar kullanabilir. Hiper parametre optimizasyon uygulamaları bu konuda gün geçtikçe daha iyi çözümler sunmakta ve insan faktörünü kademeli olarak aradan çıkarmaktadırlar. Izgara arama mevcut bütün konfigürasyonları bütün kaynakları sonuna kadar tüketerek çalıştırırken, Rasgele arama ise mevcut kümeden tesadüfi olarak seçilen belli konfigürasyonları dener. Rassal arama her ne kadar bütün olası konfigürasyonları denemese bile genellikle Izgara aramaya yakın sonuçlar üretebilmektedir. Ardışık arama, Asenkron Ardışık arama, Populasyon-Tabanlı Eğitim, Hiperkomite ve Bayesçi yaklaşımlarda diğer hiper parametre optimizasyon metotları arasında sayılabilir. Bu çalışmada NEMO konuşma duygu veriseti 4 duygu ile CNN, LSTM ve DNN derin öğrenme sınıflandırıcılarıyla çalıştırılmış ve KerasTuner’in Rassal Arama, Bayesçi Arama ve Hiperkomite Arama metotlarıyla otomatik üretilen metotların performansları karşılaştırılmıştır. Hiper parametre optimizasyon metotlarından Bayesçi Optimizasyon metodunun diğerlerine göre daha iyi ve hızlı sonuçlar ürettiği görülmüştür
Oral Pharmabiotic Tablet Formulations
No full textPharmabiotic is a unique and recent term used to describe formulations containing probiotics. Pharmabiotics are probiotics prepared in a pharmaceutical form used to treat diseases and disorders by making physicochemical changes in human health. Probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics are included in this scope, and enzobiotics, which are a rising class of supplements, should be evaluated in this context, as they are a subspecies of synbiotics. Pharmabiotics, unlike nutribiotics, do not necessarily contain live microorganisms. The best examples of these are paraprobiotics and postbiotics. Tablet formulations are suitable dosage forms for pharmabiotics due to their redundant superiority over other solid dosage forms. Tablets are frequently preferred because they can be produced at low cost, are easily transported, and modified, are suitable for large-scale production, and are more stable than other dosage forms. Considering the examples in the literature and the definition of pharmabiotic, several tablet formulations can be mentioned as pharmabiotics. They can be divided into conventional uncoated tablets, chewable tablets, and effervescent tablets. With recent studies, this classification has expanded, and buccal mucoadhesive tablets, ODTs (orally disintegrating tablets) and FDTs (fast disintegrating tablets), layered/multi-layered tablets, and tablets within tablets have also taken their place in the classification. This article focuses on oral tablet formulations that can be classified as pharmabiotics.Emerging Sources Citation Inde
Being Pregnant in the Covid-19 Pandemic: Has the Pandemıc Increased Physical and Mental Symptoms
Get PDFAim: This descriptive-cross-sectional study aims to determine whether the Covid-19 pandemic affected pregnant women's physical and mental symptoms. Methods: The study was conducted between December 2020 and December 2021 with 352 pregnant women. The data of the study were collected using the Personal Information Form, Pregnancy Symptom Inventory-PSI, Brief Symptom Inventory-BSI, and Visual Analog Scale-VAS. Results: The participants’ PSI and BSI mean scores were 28.69± 14.46, 0.68 ± 0.47 respectively. It was found that the highest scores were obtained from the anxiety (0.72 ± 0.63) and depression (0.95 ± 0.71) sub-dimensions of the BSI. It was found that women who received support from their husbands and had good relationships with their husbands had statistically significantly lower mental and physical symptoms (p˂0.05). Conclusions: Although it was found that pregnant women experienced mild mental and physical symptoms during the pandemic, anxiety, and depression symptoms were high among mental symptoms. Especially those who received support from their husbands and had good relationships with their husbands had lower mental and physical symptoms. According to our conclusion that spouse support is especially important, spouse support should be taken into consideration when identifying risky groups and making appropriate interventions
Bibliometric Analysis of Publications on Stigmatization in Psychiatric Nursing Literature
Get PDFObjectives: In the past two decades, the number of publications on stigma has increased in the literature. This study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of publications related to stigmatization in the psychiatric nursing literature. Methods: In this study, a search was performed on the PubMed database on September 11, 2022, with the Medical Searching Terms “(Stigmatization [Title OR Abstract] OR Social Stigma [Title OR Abstract]) OR (Stigma [Title OR Abstract] OR Stereotyping [Title OR Abstract] OR Discrimination [Title OR Abstract]) AND (Psychiatric Nursing [Title OR Abstract] OR Nursing [Title OR Abstract]).” Between 1990 and 2022, 10,571 studies published in English, available in full text, and published in journals indexed with SCI, SSCI, and ESCI were found. Results: The number of published articles reached the highest number in 2020, with an increase of 4.05 times in 30 years; it was determined that 92.8% of the publications were of the descriptive study, and Happell was the most productive author in this field. Frequently, articles were published in the Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing (n=762), Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services (n=550), International Journal of Mental Health Nursing (n=480), Issues in Mental Health Nursing (n=445), and Journal of Advanced Nursing (n=429). It was determined that the top five most frequently repeated keywords were humans, female, psychiatric nursing, male, and adult, respectively. Conclusion: The findings obtained from this study can provide information about the number of publications, research types, researchers, and institutions, as well as give ideas for new research strategies in psychiatric nursing literature. Establishing cooperation between institutions and authors can guide psychiatric nurses in creating projects to reduce stigma. © 2024 by Journal of Psychiatric Nursing-Available

Analyzing Critical Success Factors of Sustainable Knowledge Management: an Interval-Valued Neutrosophic Approach
No full textKnowledge management (KM) is a structured approach that includes the organized procedures of generating, capturing, arranging, storing, retrieving, distributing, and harnessing an organization's knowledge resources to attain its goals and improve its effectiveness. Encountering uncertainty and managing imprecise information are fundamental aspects of KM that cannot be avoided. In this context, sustainable KM aims to solve these issues and address prioritizing the long-term sustainability and efficiency of knowledge-related processes within an organization. The aim of this study is to structure a sustainable KM concept for organizations and identify the most common critical success factors (CSFs) with a novel analytical approach. In this context, the Interval-Valued Neutrosophic methodology, which is one of the multi-criteria decision methods (MCDMs), was adopted to evaluate and weight the determined CSFs. Four main headings-KM, environmental, economical, and social criteria-are evaluated along with their subfactors. Our findings show that KM is found to be the most important, and environmental factors followed KM. When the results are examined in terms of subfactors, cleaner production is found to be the most significant, with a global weight value of 11.13.Science Citation Index Expanded - Social Science Citation Inde
Investigation of Revenue Models Management of Amateur Sports Clubs
Get PDFBu çalışmanın amacı, amatör spor kulüplerinin gelir modelleri yönetiminin incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın temel sorusu 'amatör spor kulüplerinin gelir modelleri yönetimi nasıldır?' olup araştırma açımlayıcı betimsel türdedir. Araştırmanın evrenini Türkiye'deki spor kulüpleri, örneklemini ise Kocaeli'nde bulunan 21 amatör spor kulübü oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmaya yalnızca amatör spor kulüpleri dahil edilmiş olup profesyonel futbol kulüpleri dışlanma kapsamında tutulmuştur. Araştırmada örneklem belirleme yönetimi olarak amaçlı örneklem yöntemlerine başvurulmuştur. Örneklem yöntemlerinden kartopu örneklem yöntemi temel alınmış, buna ek olarak kolayda örneklem yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği seçilmiştir. Görüşmelerde toplam 11 soruya ilaveten çeşitli sonda soruları sorularak görüşülen kişinin konuyu derinlemesine açıkladığından emin olunmuştur. Ardından kayıtlar aynı gün deşifre edilerek dijital görüşme metinleri oluşturulmuştur. Verilerin analizinde 'içerik analizi' tekniği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen bulgular incelendiğinde spor kulüplerinin üye geliri elde etme kapasiteleriyle sponsor ve bağış gibi gelirlerinin yetersiz olduğu, giderlerinin özel ve kamu kulüplerinde farklılık gösterdiği görülmüştür. Kulüplerin 7405 sayılı Kanun sonrası hukuki statüleri bakımından farklı biçimlendiği ancak işleyiş bakımından aynı olduğu saptanmıştır. Sonuç olarak amatör spor kulüplerinin gelir ve gider kaynakları yönetimine bakıldığında görüşmeciler tarafından yetersiz bulunduğu anlaşılmış, 7405 sayılı yasadan önceki işleyiş ile yasadan sonraki işleyiş arasında kulüpleri çok etkileyen bir durum olmadığı görülmüştür. Özellikle yasaya uygun olduğu halde gelir elde etmek üzere üyelik aidatı gibi önemli bir kalemin etkili biçimde kullanılmadığı anlaşılmaktadır. Araştırma bulgularından gelir elde etme güçlükleri yaşayan kulüplerin finansal kapasitelerinin kulüp temeline dayanan bir spor sistemi için yeterli olmadığı sonucuna varılabilir. Araştırmanın bulgularından ortaya çıkan sonuç ve alanyazın dikkate alınarak bazı öneriler ortaya konulmuştur. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına bağlı kalarak ortaya konulan bu önerilerin amatör spor kulüplerinin yasa sonrası gelir modelleri yönetimine ışık tutması beklenmektedir.The aim of this study is to examine the management of revenue models of amateur sports clubs.. The main question of the research is, 'How are the revenue models and management of amateur sports clubs?' The research is exploratory and descriptive. The population of the research consists of sports clubs in Turkey, and the sample includes 21 amateur sports clubs in Kocaeli. Only amateur sports clubs were included in the research, excluding professional football clubs. Purposeful sampling methods were used for sample determination. Among these methods, the snowball sampling method was primarily used, supplemented by the convenience sampling method. Semi-structured interviews were chosen as the data collection tool. During the interviews, a total of 11 main questions and various probe questions were asked to ensure in-depth explanations from the interviewees. The recordings were transcribed on the same day, and digital interview texts were created. The 'content analysis' technique was used to analyze the data. The findings revealed that the capacity of sports clubs to generate income from members, sponsors, and donations is insufficient, and their expenses vary between private and public clubs. It was determined that the clubs' legal statuses have changed since the enactment of Law No. 7405, but their operations have remained similar. As a result, the income and expense management of amateur sports clubs was found to be inadequate by the interviewees, and there were no significant changes in the clubs' operations before and after the implementation of Law No. 7405. It was also noted that membership fees, although legally compliant, are not effectively used to generate income. From the research findings, it can be concluded that the financial capacities of clubs struggling to generate income are insufficient for a club-based sports system. Some suggestions, based on the research findings and existing literature, have been proposed. These suggestions, based on the results of the research, are expected to shed light on the management of post-legal income models of amateur sports clubs

In this study, it was aimed to examine the immediate effects of IASTM and PMT on static and dynamic balance in young adults with pes planus. Method: The navicular drop test was used to diagnose pes planus. 51 individuals were included in the study and divided into three groups [IASTM (n:15), percussive massage (n:18) and control (n:18) groups] by simple randomization. Flamingo and Y Balance test was assessed before and immediately after intervention. Repeated Measures ANOVA test was used for the intergroup comparison, and the One -Way ANOVA test was used for the intragroup comparison, also post -hoc test with Tukey correction was performed. Results: There was no significant difference in static balance between the three groups (p > 0.05). There was a significant difference in dynamic balance between groups (p < 0.05). Only IASTM group had significant differences at before and after intervention of all directions except for posterolateral direction of Y Balance Test (p < 0.05). Conclusion: IASTM applied to the plantar fascia of individuals with pes planus have immediate effects on dynamic balance when compared to no intervention and percussive massage even within a small sample size.Emerging Sources Citation Inde
The Effect of an Educational Peer-Based Intervention Program on Sexual and Reproductive Health Behavior
Get PDFOGUL, Zeynep/0000-0003-1298-330XIntroductionThe fact that adolescent people experience risky sexual behavior and have insufficient knowledge of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) indicates the need for SRH education. This study investigates the impact of peer-educated SRH programs on the knowledge and behaviors of adolescents.MethodThis study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial on 275 university students. The subjects were randomly assigned to the peer educators (n = 25), intervention (n = 125) and control (n = 125) groups using systematic random sampling. Peer educators provided face-to-face SRH education to the intervention group. The researcher provided the same education to the control group via the online conference method. SRH knowledge and behavior evaluated with scales before, after, and 3 and 6 months after the SRH education. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS version 25 through statistical tests and analysis of covariance.ResultsThe female and male ratio of the participants was almost equal (49.4%, 50.6%). The mean age was found to be 20.42 +/- 1.14 years. The mean scores of the students in the intervention group increased from 21.20 +/- 0.14 to 35.20 +/- 0.07 for sexual health knowledge questionnaire (SHKQ), and from 130.56 +/- 0.55 to 147,90 +/- 0,25 for reproductive health scale (RHS) after the education. Compared with the control group, these increases in the mean scores of SHKQ and RHS were found to be statistically significant.ConclusionThe findings show the important role of the SRH peer education method on the effect of transferring knowledge about sexual behaviors. Health and education policy-makers are advised to implicate SRH peer education.Social Science Citation Inde
