Yayın Transforming tourism experience: AI-based smart travel platform(Association for Computing Machinery, 2023) Yöndem, Meltem Turhan; Özçelik, Şuayb Talha; Caetano, Inés; Figueiredo, José; Alves, Patrícia; Marreiros, Goreti; Bahtiyar, Hüseyin; Yüksel, Eda; Perales, FernandoIn this paper, we propose the development of a novel personalized tourism platform incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) technologies to enhance the smart tourism experience. The platform utilizes various data sources, including travel history, user activity, and personality assessments, combined with machine learning algorithms to generate tailored travel recommendations for individual users. We implemented fundamental requirements for the platform: secure user identification using blockchain technology and provision of personalized services based on user interests and preferences. By addressing these requirements, the platform aims to increase tourist satisfaction and improve the efficiency of the tourism industry. In collaboration with various universities and companies, this multinational project aims to create a versatile platform that can seamlessly integrate new smart tourism units, providing an engaging, educational, and enjoyable experience for users.Yayın Grammar or crammer? the role of morphology in distinguishing orthographically similar but semantically unrelated words(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Ercan, Gökhan; Yıldız, Olcay TanerWe show that n-gram-based distributional models fail to distinguish unrelated words due to the noise in semantic spaces. This issue remains hidden in conventional benchmarks but becomes more pronounced when orthographic similarity is high. To highlight this problem, we introduce OSimUnr, a dataset of nearly one million English and Turkish word-pairs that are orthographically similar but semantically unrelated (e.g., grammar - crammer). These pairs are generated through a graph-based WordNet approach and morphological resources. We define two evaluation tasks - unrelatedness identification and relatedness classification - to test semantic models. Our experiments reveal that FastText, with default n-gram segmentation, performs poorly (below 5% accuracy) in identifying unrelated words. However, morphological segmentation overcomes this issue, boosting accuracy to 68% (English) and 71% (Turkish) without compromising performance on standard benchmarks (RareWords, MTurk771, MEN, AnlamVer). Furthermore, our results suggest that even state-of-the-art LLMs, including Llama 3.3 and GPT-4o-mini, may exhibit noise in their semantic spaces, particularly in highly synthetic languages such as Turkish. To ensure dataset quality, we leverage WordNet, MorphoLex, and NLTK, covering fully derivational morphology supporting atomic roots (e.g., '-co_here+ance+y' for 'coherency'), with 405 affixes in Turkish and 467 in English.Yayın Retinal disease diagnosis in OCT scans using a foundational model(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2025) Nazlı, Muhammet Serdar; Turkan, Yasemin; Tek, Faik Boray; Toslak, Devrim; Bulut, Mehmet; Arpacı, Fatih; Öcal, Mevlüt CelalThis study examines the feasibility and performance of using single OCT slices from the OCTA-500 dataset to classify DR (Diabetic Retinopathy) and AMD (Age-Related Macular Degeneration) with a pre-trained transformer-based model (RETFound). The experiments revealed the effective adaptation capability of the pretrained model to the retinal disease classification problem. We further explored the impact of using different slices from the OCT volume, assessing the sensitivity of the results to the choice of a single slice (e.g., “middle slice”) and whether analyzing both horizontal and vertical cross-sectional slices could improve outcomes. However, deep neural networks are complex systems that do not indicate directly whether they have learned and generalized the disease appearance as human experts do. The original dataset lacked disease localization annotations. Therefore, we collected new disease classification and localization annotations from independent experts for a subset of OCTA-500 images. We compared RETFound’s explainability-based localization outputs with these newly collected annotations and found that the region attributions aligned well with the expert annotations. Additionally, we assessed the agreement and variability between experts and RETFound in classifying disease conditions. The Kappa values, ranging from 0.35 to 0.69, indicated moderate agreement among experts and between the experts and the model. The transformer-based RETFound model using single or multiple OCT slices, is an efficient approach to diagnosing AMD and DR.Yayın TURSpider veri kümesinde Temsilcilerin Karışımı Tabanlı Text-to-SQL çalışması(IEEE, 2025) Kanburoğlu, Ali Buğra; Tek, Faik BorayBu çalışma, Türkçe Text-to-SQL için geliştirilen TURSpider veri kümesi üzerindeki deneyleri ele almaktadır. TURSpider, çeşitli zorluk seviyelerine sahip SQL sorgularını içeren geniş kapsamlı bir Türkçe veri kümesidir ve bu alandaki araştırmalar için önemli bir kaynak niteliğindedir. Çalışmada, geri bildirim odaklı temsilcilerin karışımı yaklaşımının (ing. feedback driven Mixture-of-Agents - MoAF) başarımı incelenmiştir. MoAF yapısında, birden fazla büyük dil modeli (BDM) iş birligi içinde çalışarak SQL oluşturma başarımını artırmayı hedeflemektedir. Bu yapıda temsilci (ing. agent) işbirliği, modellerin birbirinden ögrenmesini ve geri bildirim mekanizmaları aracılığıyla hataların düzeltilmesini sağlamaktadır. Deney sonuçlarına göre, MoAF yaklaşımı ile %60.63 yürütme doğruluğuna ulaşılmış ve TURSpider veri kümesi üzerindeki en iyi sonuç elde edilmiştir.
