| 2023 | KoExPubMed: A Tool for Effective and Customized Knowledge Extraction from PubMedabstractAn exponential growth in the literature in general and the medical literature in particular raises a need for effective intelligent analysis strategies and tools to provide valuable insights to researchers about the current evolving literature. While existing applications provide more specific approaches to the problem, such as focusing on particular genome or protein information, in this paper, the proposed application provides effective and detailed analysis of PubMed. The developed tool, named KoExPubMed, follows a more generalized and holistic way by taking into consideration different types of information such as authors, countries, genes, and the interactions between them. The developed application consists of four main components; (1) keyword search and ID extraction, (2) PubMed article information and abstract retrieval, (3) country and address extraction, and (4) gene information extraction. In addition to the fundamental components, the tool provides a variety of visualization options for showing the extracted information and the related associations, including line charts for densities and countries, chord charts for collaborations of authors, network graphs for the genes mentioned together, bubble charts for gene frequencies, etc. By addressing the need for a generalized data mining tool, we propose a comprehensive application which is capable of employing data mining and machine learning techniques to extract from PubMed knowledge valuable to researchers and practitioners who are interested in closely investigating the achievements of others.

| 2023 | Investigating The Roles of microRNAs / lncRNAs in Characterizing Breast Cancer Subtypes and PrognosisabstractMolecular subtyping is a method of separating tumor clusters in a cancer type with common features according to molecular data and classification models. Genome datasets are taken from many different people and some genetic material, more precisely genetic markers, are obtained to predict the presence of a disease. In addition, breast cancer occurs due to mutation or modification observed in cells. miRNAs and lncRNAs take participation in cell cycle, regulation, and even chromatic inhibition of cell. For example, miRNAs function in cell cycle regulation as the degradation of mRNAs. Therefore, the aim of this work is to investigate the roles of miRNAs and lncRNAs in prognosis and characterizing the subtypes of Breast Cancer.

| 2023 | Creating a Learning Profile by Using Face and Emotion RecognitionabstractThe aim of this work is to employ face recognition for creating learning profiles of the analysed persons who are students in this study. Generating education profiles will help experts in the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), which is a serious problem in children. Children with ADHD often have the ability and potential to learn. However, it may be difficult to reveal their capabilities and skills. Accordingly, a suffering child may have a hard time succeeding in real life when he/she is ignored and expected to mix with other children. The unrealized gap and deficiency may lead to other problems and more complicated situation with unpredictable consequences. Thanks to the system developed in this study, and the like, which will help in diagnosing the ADHD disease, and hence suffering individuals will be able to recognize their deficiencies, understand their ability to learn and adapt when approached differently in a way which suits his/her situation. This personalized handling of infected students will be an excellent guide to advance their potential and integration within the society carefully and smoothly. The system analyzes the face of a student to inspire his/her emotional state. The reported test results demonstrate how the system works well and produces high accuracy under a variety of severe conditions such as skewed angle, less illumination, accessories etc. Tansel Özyer, Gözde Yurtdas, Loubaba Alhajj, Jon G.

| 2020 | Learning By Creating Instructional Videos: An Experience Report from a Database CourseabstractWe report on an experiment in the final two weeks of a third-year course on Database Systems where we asked the students to create instructional videos to teach their peers a self-chosen concept that they found challenging to learn. After the videos were submitted, we surveyed the students to see why they chose the video subjects, whether creating the video helped them understand the chosen subject deeper, where they focused their time when creating the video, whether they enjoyed the assignment, and whether they prefer a more conventional assignment. It was concerning that only 78% of the registered students submitted the assignment. About 52% of the students who completed the assignment took an online survey. An overwhelming majority of the surveyed students indicated that the assignment helped them understand the topic they chose in a more subtle way. However, the class was split on whether they prefer this style of active learning assignments over the more conventional type. Jalal Kawash, Kashfia Sailunaz |
