Early Steps in Automated Behavior Mapping via Indoor Sensors
(MDPI, 2017)
Behavior mapping (BM) is a spatial data collection technique in which the locational and behavioral information of a user is noted on a plan layout of the studied environment. Among many indoor positioning technologies we ...
Energy-saving behavior of Turkish women: A consumer survey on the use of home appliances
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2017)
This paper focuses on energy-related attitudes and behaviors of Turkish women who are the main users of electrical home appliances responsible for most household energy consumption. Answers from 1323 female respondents ...
A framework for water and carbon footprint analysis of national electricity production scenarios
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017)
While carbon footprint reduction potential and energy security aspects of renewable and non-renewable resources are widely considered in energy policy their effects on water resources are mostly overlooked. This research ...

Assessment of chromite liberation spectrum on microscopic images by means of a supervised image classification
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017)
Assessment of mineral liberation spectrum with all its aspects is essential for plant control and optimization. This paper aims to estimate 2D mineral map and its associated liberation spectrum of a particular chromite ...
Phase transitions between different spin-glass phases and between different chaoses in quenched random chiral systems
(Amer Physical Soc., 2017)
The left-right chiral and ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic double-spin-glass clock model with the crucially even number of states q = 4 and in three dimensions d = 3 has been studied by renormalization-group theory. We find ...

Computing finite time non-ruin probability and some joint distributions in discrete time risk model with exchangeable claim occurrences
(Elsevier Science, 2017)
In this paper we study a discrete time risk model based on exchangeable dependent claim occurrences. In particular we obtain expressions for the finite time non-ruin probability and the joint distribution of the time to ...
