No full textJ Turgut Ozal Med Cent, 22(4), 221–224.Aim: Support vector machines (SVM) is one of the classification methods that aims to find the best hyper-plane separating a space into two parts with known positive and negative samples. The goal of this study is to classify myocardial infarction (MI) using SVM models. Material and Methods: The data used in the MI classification contains information related to 184 individuals which is randomly taken from the database created for the Department of Cardiology, Faculty of Medicine, Inonu University. Estimated SVMs are models generated from the SVM-linear and SVM-Radial Based kernel functions. Results: In this study, 90 individuals of the study group (48.9%) are MI patients, while 94 (51.1%) patients are not. The classification success rate is 83.70% for SVM-linear model and 90.76% for the SVM-Radial Based model. Conclusion: In this study, it is observed that SVM-Radial based model presented a better classification performance than the linear SVM model. The use of SVM models based on various kernel type functions can improve disease classification performance
Genetically modified organisms and turkish legislation
No full textThe main purpose of my article is to discuss what GMOs are, the controversies about this specific issue and the related regulations that are put forward by the authorities. GMOs are genetically altered organisms which have been widely produced and breeded in certain parts of the world. According to some experts, this special practice of agriculture emerged in order to put an end to famine and prevent food scarcity. As growing GMOs seems to be more convenient than the traditional farming, it is more eligible to produce food in large scale which will be a fine solution for food scarcity. However, there are some oppositions to the GMOs. It is strongly believed that the real causes of famine is not related to production, it is a problem of distribution of food. Moreover, patenting the seeds leads to an unstoppable control and dominance over food by the private enterprises. Therefore, the opponents state that the aims of these companies are solely financial gain and monopolisation in food production. Patenting the seeds is another arguable issue. It poses a great threat for the organic farmers since GMO seeds can contaminate the others through natural ways. This is not the only danger that organic farmers face with; thay can also be sued by the GMO producers for this unintended exposure to GMO seeds. Not only the diminishing of the variety of species but also the possible adverse effects of GMOs on human health create a debate between the two groups. These are not the only topics that are open to discussion. In addition to these, labelling the products creates a huge problem among the poorly educated consumers as they have not been clearly regulated in some countries. Hence, this subject having such a close connection to human health cannot be ignored by the law. In fact, a number of countries have enacted legislation in order to regulate this sensitive field. Turkey, having been dependent on the import of the agricultural goods for a period of time, has to join these countries with a recent legislation. All these contemporary issues for Turkey will be highlighted in my article

Changing household pattern, the meaning and the use of home: Semantic and syntactic shifts of a century–old house and its journey through generations
No full textA home is more than just ‘a territorial core’ and not just ‘an ordering principle in space’. Home is a complex entity that defines and is defined by cultural, socio-demografic, psychological, political and economic factors. The household living in itself makes a house a ‘Home’, although house is a physical and static system, household has a living structure. Therefore, the house and the life embraced by itself build a dynamic system, which dimensions are culture, behavior, environment and time. In course of time, socio-cultural changes affect behavioral settings of households and changing household patterns alter use of homes. These interactions between household pattern and use of home have the vital importance for understanding of man-environment interaction system and grasping the transforming nature of architectural design practice. The main aim of this paper is to show that the design, the meaning, and the use of home are intimately related to a range of socio-cultural, behavioral and spatial dimensions and that all reflect reciprocal relations. Time is a crucial dimension for understanding the domestic space transformation. Grasping the meaning of domestic spaces’ essential dynamism is possible through understanding the use of home space and its spatial, socio-cultural and temporal orders. The paper will consist of four main chapters. Following the introduction, the second chapter covers a conceptual overview on the variables of the "Household Pattern-Use of Home" interaction system; which can be grouped in cultural, behavioral, environmental and temporal components. The theoretical approach to meaning and use of home will be based on the transactional perspective that "Home" is an integrative scheme that creates a bond between the person and the place. Home is also a set of interactions between the experience of the dwelling and the wider spatial, socio-cultural and temporal context. The third chapter includes a case study held on a traditional Turkish house and its users in “Eski Malatya” region which is an agro-town in Malatya, region of East-Anatolia. Interactions between changing household pattern and use of home have been studied in seven characteristic periods over 100 years. In this chapter, a syntactic examination on the change of fourth, fifth and sixth periods will also be focused. Since this research is based on previous study of Hülya Turgut, and Mete Ünügür (1997), the extended study will also focus on especially the changing semantic and syntactic pattern of fourth, fifth and sixth periods of the research including a 47 years period. By focusing to the transformation in meaning and the spatial organization of the house, changing integration and mean depth values on the ground floor of the configurational setting will be scrutinized with the semantic shifts. During these periods many dramatic socio-cultural and political changes occurred both in Turkey that are the first and second world wars; collapsing of the Ottoman Empire; foundation of a new state and nation; technological developments and finally urbanizatıon and globalization process. The case study explores the story of a house built in 1878 and left in 1982 reflecting all cultural, behavioral and spatial changes through the life-cycle of “Cumali Aga (who is the landlord of the area and the grandfather of the author) Family”. Finally, overlapping the data of space syntax (analysis of integration and mean depth) and the meaning of space (the change on behavioral settings) is important for the main discussion. How space syntax may be a tool to understand the changing patterns in the case of this paper is a major issue. As a concluding remark, results on the overlapping syntactic and semantic data will also be discussed for the identification of the future studies

Cönk (Şeyh Hamza Ocağina ait) inceleme-metin-dizin
No full textYapmış olduğumuz çalışmada, Afyon Sandıklı İlçesi Şeyh Hamza Ocağına ait Cönk’ü farklı yönleri ile inceledik. 221 varak olan cönk. Ön kısmı deri ile kaplı; dikey olarak aşağıdan yukarıya doğru açılan; sayfaları birbirine ip ile tutturulmuş; ortalama sayfa boyutları 15-20 cm. boyunda, 7-10 cm. eninde el yazması bir eserdir. Yazılış yılı ve yazarı hakkında kesin olmamakla birlikte içerisindeki bilgilerden hareketle 1800’lü yıllarda H?fız Şuh?d? tarafından kaleme alınmıştır. Cönk’ün, çoğu sayfası Türkçe olduğu halde, Arapça ve Farsça dillerinden dilimize geçen kelimeler ağırlıktadır. İçerisinde büyüler, dualar, tedavi yöntemleri, şiirler, hesap işlemleri, takvim bulunmaktadır. Türkçe kısımları üzerinde çalışma yaptığımız Cönk; İnceleme-Metin-Dizin olarak üç bölüm şeklinde incelenmiştir. Cönk, Osmanlı Türkçesi döneminde yazılmış olsa da Eski Anadolu Türkçesi özellikleri görülmektedir. 19. yüzyılda yazılan bu eserin edebiyat ve bilim dünyasına katkı sağlayacağı ve dilimizin tarihi gelişimi açısından faydalı olacağı kanısındayız.In this study, a Conk belonging to Şeyh Hamza Ocağı in the district of Sandıklı, Afyon was analyzed from various angles. It is a hand written Conk consisting of 221 foils. It has a leather cover in the front; its pages open upward vertically which were attached to each other with a metal string. Its page measures are 15-20 cm in length and 7-10 cm in width. The author and the date of the Conk is not clear; however, its content gives strong clues suggesting it was written by H?fız Şuh?d? around 1800’s. Although most of its pages were written in Turkish language, there are also words commonly derived from Arabic and Persian languages. Its content include sorcery, prayers, cure methods, poems, account transactions and calendar. The analysis conducted on the Turkish part of the Conk was done in three parts as analysis, the text and index. While the work was written in Ottoman period, it also shares the features of old Anatolian Turkish. It is considered that this work, which was written in the 19th centuries, will contribute to the world of science and literature

PARALLELIZATION OF BITONIC SORT AND RADIX SORT ALGORITHMS ON MANY CORE GPUS
No full textAYDIN, Musa/0000-0002-5825-2230Data sorting is used in many fields and plays an important role in defining the overall speed and performance. There are many sorting categories. In this study, two of these sorting algorithms that are bitonic sort and radix sort are dealt with. We have designed and developed Radix Sort and Bitonic Sort algorithms for many core Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). Although bitonic sort is a concurrent sorting algorithm, radix sort is a distribution sorting algorithm, i.e. both of these algorithms are not usual sorting algorithms. They can be parallelized on GPUs easily to get better performance than other sorting algorithms. We parallelized these sorting algorithms on many core GPUs using the Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) platform, developed by NVIDIA Corporation and got some performance measurements.Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Scienc
