A proper analysis of the Events of 6/7 September requires taking into account the ethnic and religious homogenization practices of the Kemalist elite, the exceptional of democratic and financial circumstances of the 1950s and the Cyprus con...

Optimal Trend Labeling in Financial Time Series

Predicting asset price trends is often posed as a classification problem, where trends are classified as positive or negative. Since asset price series are noisy and volatile, it is difficult to distinguish true trends from short-term fluct...

Evaluating Battery Degradation Models in Rolling-Horizon BESS Arbitrage Optimization

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can benefit from price volatility in electricity markets, but frequent cycling increases degradation and reduces long-term value. This study develops a rolling-horizon dispatch framework in which batter...

Deep neural network-based prediction of tsunami wave attenuation by mangrove forests

The goal of this research is to develop a model employing deep neural networks (DNNs) to predict the effectiveness of mangrove forests in attenuating the impact of tsunami waves. The dataset for the DNN model is obtained by simulating tsuna...

Convolutional Neural Network Based Approval Prediction of Enhancement Reports

For a given software enhancement report, identifying its possible approval status could help software developers by suggesting feature enhancements to compete in the software industry. An automatic solution for the approval prediction of en...
