A Comparison of Grading Models for Neighborhood Level of Family Housing Units
More recently Turkey has witnessed fast housing development and real estate sector growth because of the mortgage preparations. With this development, property location quality has been considered important for selecting and paying them. This study uses a data set of new single family housing units in Kocaeli University Campus Area. By using 4 location quality criteria, 27 single family housing units are graded at the neighborhood level. It is aimed to examine the applications of grading property at the neighborhood level based on property location quality by testing with three methods. Traditional method and fuzzy logic method were discussed in our antecedent studies. In this study, an easy used numerical calculation method; Neural Networks (NN), is introduced. Its grading performance is compared with the previous methods. NN method is found to be more accurate and realistic than traditional grading approach where its designing stage is more practical and faster than fuzzy logic approach.
Defect and Legal Hold Liability of Seller's in the Consecutive Sale Contract
Ardı ardına teslimli satış sözleşmesi, Türk Borçlar Kanunu’nda düzenlenmemekle birlikte bir satış sözleşmesi çeşidi olarak değerlendirilebilir. Bu sözleşmede satıcı, satış sözleşmesinden doğan malı teslim edimini belirli dönemlerle yerine getirmektedir. Ardı ardına teslimli satış sözleşmesi açısından değerlendirilmesi gereken konulardan birisi bu sözleşmesi satıcının ayıptan ve zapttan sorumluluğudur. Makalede, ardı ardına teslimli satış sözleşmesinde satıcının ayıptan ve zapttan sorumluluğu kapsamlı bir şekilde incelenmeye çalışılmıştır.Consecutive sale contract can be regarded as a kind of a sales contract, though it is not regulated by the Turkish Code of Obligations. In this contract, the seller fulfills delivery of the goods arising from the sales contract in a certain period. One of the issues that need to be considered in terms of a consucutive sales contract is the contractor's responsibility to defect and legal hold. In this article, the consucutive sales contract was not intended to be thoroughly reviewed for the responsibility of the seller to defect and legal hold

Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Dosimetric comparison of 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy and intensity modulated radiotherapy techniques in curative treatment of pancreatic cancer
Yüksek Lisans TeziBu çalışmanın amacı, pankreas kanserli hastalarda 3 Boyutlu Konformal Radyoterapi (3-BKRT) ile coplanar ve non-coplanar Yoğunluk Ayarlı Radyoterapi (YART) teknikleri ile yapılan tedavi planlamalarında hedef hacim ve kritik organ dozlarını doz-hacim histogramı (DVH) yardımıyla karşılaştırmaktır. Trakya Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Radyasyon Onkolojisi Anabilim Dalı’nda tedavi edilen 13 hastanın bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) görüntüleri 5 mm kesit aralıkları ile taranmıştır. Taranan görüntüler konturlama bilgisayarına aktarılıp, hedef hacimler ve kritik organlar konturlanmıştır. Konturlama sonucunda elde edilen üç boyutlu görüntüler CMS XIO tedavi planlama sistemine aktarılarak her hasta için 3-BKRT ile coplanar ve non-coplanar YART teknikleri ile tedavi planları oluşturuldu. Oluşturulan planlardan DVH yardımıyla hedef hacmin (PTV-54) ve kritik organların dozları incelenmiştir. Kritik organ olarak karaciğer, omurilik, barsak paketi, sağ böbrek, sol böbrek ve bilateral böbrek dozları değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen tedavi planları incelendiğinde PTV-54’ün D%95 dozları 3-BKRT’de, D max dozları ise YART planlama tekniklerinde daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Çalışmamızda kritik organ dozları incelendiğinde bilateral böbrek, barsak paketi ve karaciğer dozlarının non-coplanar YART tekniğinde daha düşük olduğu görülmektedir. Sonuç olarak elde ettiğimiz değerler kabul sınırları içerisinde olup, sağlıklı dokuları korumak açısından non-coplanar YART tekniği, coplanar YART ve 3-BKRT tekniklerine göre üstünlük sağladığı görülmüştür. Hedef hacme verilen dozlarda ise YART tekniklerinde oluşan D max değerleri 3-BKRT’ye göre daha yüksek bulunmuştur .AbstractThe purpose of this study is to compare target volume and critical organ doses between 3-Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy (3-DCRT) and coplanar and non-coplanar Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) techniques using dose-volume histograms (DVH) in curative treatment planning for pancreatic cancer patients. Computed tomography (CT) images of 13 patients treated in Trakya University School of Medicine Department of Radiation Oncology were scanned with 5 mm sections. CT images were transferred to a contouring computer where target volumes and critical organs were contoured. The created 3-D images were transferred to CMS XIO treatment planning system and then the treatment plans were performed with 3-DCRT, coplanar and non-coplanar IMRT techniques. The target volume (PTV-54) and critical organ doses were examined with DVH on the generated plans. Liver, spinal cord, bowel bag, right kidney, left kidney and bilateral kidneys were evaluated as critical organs. As the result of treatment plans DVHs comparison, PTV-54's D%95 doses were found higher in 3-DCRT plan, and D max doses were found higher in IMRT plans. When critical organ doses were compared, bilaretal kidneys, bowel bag and liver doses were found lower in noncoplanar IMRT technique. Consequently even all the DVH values of each planning technique are within acceptable limits, non-coplanar IMRT technique is better than coplanar IMRT and 3-DCRT techniques for the protection of healthy tissues. For the doses given to target volume, the values of Dmax in IMRT plans are higher than this in 3- DCRT plan
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Building task-oriented machine translation systems
La principal meta de esta tesis es desarrollar sistemas de traduccion interactiva que presenten mayor
sinergia con sus usuarios potenciales. Por ello, el objetivo es hacer los sistemas estado del arte mas
ergonomicos, intuitivos y eficientes, con el fin de que el experto humano se sienta mas comodo al utilizarlos.
Con este fin se presentan diferentes t�ecnicas enfocadas a mejorar la adaptabilidad y el tiempo
de respuesta de los sistemas de traduccion automatica subyacentes, as�ÿ como tambien se presenta una
estrategia cuya finalidad es mejorar la interaccion hombre-m�aquina. Todo ello con el proposito ultimo
de rellenar el hueco existente entre el estado del arte en traduccion automatica y las herramientas que los
traductores humanos tienen a su disposici�on.
En lo que respecta al tiempo de respuesta de los sistemas de traducci�on autom�atica, en esta tesis se
presenta una t�ecnica de poda de los par�ametros de los modelos de traducci�on actuales, cuya intuici�on est�a
basada en el concepto de segmentaci�on biling¤ue, pero que termina por evolucionar hacia una estrategia de
re-estimaci�on de dichos par�ametros. Utilizando esta estrategia se obtienen resultados experimentales que
demuestran que es posible podar la tabla de segmentos hasta en un 97%, sin mermar por ello la calidad
de las traducciones obtenidas. Adem�as, estos resultados son coherentes en diferentes pares de lenguas,
lo cual evidencia que la t�ecnica que se presenta aqu�ÿ es efectiva en un entorno de traducci�on autom�atica
tradicional, y por lo tanto podr�ÿa ser utilizada directamente en un escenario de post-edici�on. Sin embargo,
los experimentos llevados a cabo en traducci�on interactiva son ligeramente menos convincentes, pues
implican la necesidad de llegar a un compromiso entre el tiempo de respuesta y la calidad de los sufijos
producidos.
Por otra parte, se presentan dos t�ecnicas de adaptaci�on, con el prop�osito de mejorar la adaptabilidad
de los sistemas de traducci�on autom�atica. La primeraSanchis Trilles, G. (2012). Building task-oriented machine translation systems [Tesis doctoral]. Universitat Politècnica de València. https://doi.org/10.4995/Thesis/10251/17174Palanci
