    Exploring the nexus between inflation and globalization under inflation targeting through the lens of New Zealand's experience
    (2017) Martínez-García, Enrique; Soytaş, Mehmet Ali; Department of Economics; Kabukçuoğlu, Ayşe; Faculty Member; Department of Economics; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics
    We investigate empirically the inflation dynamics in New Zealand, a small open economy and a pioneer in inflation targeting, under various open-economy Phillips curve specifications. Our forecasting exercise suggests that open-economy Phillips curves under standard measures of global slack do not help forecast domestic inflation, possibly indicating measurement problems with global slack itself. In turn, under a stable inflation target we still find that (i) global inflation and (ii) global inflation and oil prices have information content for headline CPI and core CPI inflation over the 1997:Q3-2015:Q1 period and appear to be reliable proxies for global slack in forecasting inflation.

    Female labor force participation in Turkey: a synthetic cohort analysis, 1988-2013
    (2017) Kırdar, Murat Güray; Dayıoğlu, Meltem; Department of Economics; Tunalı, Fehmi İnsan; Faculty Member; Department of Economics; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 105635
    We study the aggregate labor force participation behavior of women over a 25-year period in Turkey using a synthetic panel analysis. In our decomposition of age, year, and cohort effects, we use three APC models that have survived the scrutiny of the demography community. We rely on predictions from just-identified models that render different methods comparable. The exercise is carried out by rural/urban status and by education to tease out some key differences in behavior. Our comparative methodology yields remarkably robust age-profiles that represent the behavior of a typical woman over her life-cycle. Notably an M-shape attributable to child-bearing related concerns is detected in rural areas and for low-educated women in urban areas. We also find that later birth-cohorts among the less-educated women—which constitutes the majority of the female workforce—are significantly more likely to participate, which implies that the recent rise in the aggregate participation rates is not only due to rising education levels and that the current substantial gap in participation by education will decrease.

    Jinekolojik kanser kontrolü ve hemşirelik
    (Hacettepe Üniversitesi Hemşirelik Fakültesi, 2014) Koç, Gülten; Eroğlu, Kafiye; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 6061
    Kanser ile ilgili son veriler, hem dünyada hem de ülkemizde jinekolojik kanserlerin insidans ve mortalite açısından ilk on kanser türü içinde yer aldığını göstermektedir. Jinekolojik kanserler tedavinin manevi ve maddi yükünün fazlalığı ile diğer kanserlerden farklıdır. Bu nedenle jinekolojik kanser mortalite ve morbiditesinin azaltılmasında kanser kontrolüne yönelik geliştirilmiş stratejiler daha da önem kazanmaktadır. Hemşireler kanser kontrolünün her aşamasında önemli rolleri olan sağlık çalışanlarıdır. Kanser kontrolünde hemşire kanseri önleme, tarama ve tanılamada danışmanlık yapma, bakım verme, sağlık eğitimi yapma, kanser vakalarını yönetme ve araştırma yapma rollerine sahiptir. Bu nedenle jinekolojik kanser ile ilişkili faktörleri bilerek kapsamlı bir tanılama, risk belirleme, genetik yatkınlık konularında analiz ve sentez yapabilecek bilgiye sahip olmalıdır. Böylece jinekolojik kanser gelişmesini önlemeye ve kansere bağlı ölümleri azaltmaya yönelik bireye özgü programlar geliştirebilir. Anahtar kelimeler: Jinekolojik kanser, kanserden korunma, sağlığın geliştirilmesi, hemşirelik. / The most recent data about cancer demonstrate that gynaecological cancers rank among the top ten types of cancer in terms of both incidence and mortality in the world and in Turkey. The gyneacological cancers differ from other cancers with respect to the high financial and moral burden of their therapies. For that reason, the strategies developed for cancer control in reducing the gyneacological cancer mortality and morbidity have become even more prominent. Nurses are healthcare professionals who have crucial roles in every level of cancer control. In cancer control, a nurse assumes roles of preventing cancer, counseling during screening and diagnosis, providing care, conducting health education, managing cancer cases and carrying out research. Therefore, s/he should have enough knowledge for being able to do analysis and synthesis by doing a comprehensive diagnosis, risk identification and genetic predisposition with awareness of gynaecological cancer-related factors. Thus, personalized programs geared towards preventing the development of gynaecological cancer and reducing cancer-related deaths may be developed.

    Egypt’s manufacturing sector: seizing on an advantageous product space position
    (The Lebanese Center for Policy Studies, 2017) Bustos, Sebastian; Department of Economics; Yıldırım, Muhammed Ali; Faculty Member; Department of Economics; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 219280
    This policy report on Egypt’s industrial sector is the third in a series of reports aimed at identifying strategic options Arab countries have in undertaking structural transformation. Using the product space methodology, this report analyzes existing capabilities of selected economies by identifying products they currently export and determining which path they should follow to produce more sophisticated and strategic products. A study of Egypt’s product space reveals the country should develop the machinery and chemicals & allied industry since they would increase the country’s product complexity index. To meet this specific goal and to enhance production in other sectors, Egypt should focus on providing support and public inputs—such as infrastructure and regulation—to existing industries with the aim of improving their productivity and ability to jump to nearby opportunities.

    An historical geographic information system for Ottoman Studies. The c. 1907 Ottoman Census and Armenian Settlement in Istanbul
    (Peeters Online Journals, 2020) Ohanian, Daniel; Başkurt, Z. Mehmet; Department of History; Kabadayı, Mustafa Erdem; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 33267
    The purpose of this article is to announce the publication of a partial transcription of the c. 1907 Ottoman census that relates to 24,000 Apostolic Armenian Istanbulites and of a historical geographic information system (HGIS), or interactive map, that shows where these individuals lived. Within this framework, the authors first present their argument that an unidentified, microfilmed population register housed in New York is the most substantial portion of this census currently available to researchers. In the second part of their article, they introduce HGISes as tools for the digital humanities and describe the process of creating one.

    Ottoman literature as Mediterranean literature: travel, imperialism, and c omparison in Hac Yolunda by Cenab Şahabeddin
    (Mediterranean Institute, University of Malta, 2019) Department of Comparative Literature; Arslan, Ceylan Ceyhun; Faculty Member; Department of Comparative Literature; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; 280297
    The Mediterranean did not receive enough attention in research and scholarship on Ottoman literature, which has often been studied either as the precursor of modern Turkish literature or as a part of Islamic Middle Eastern literatures. Likewise, Ottoman literature did not receive significant attention in those branches of Mediterranean studies that have foregrounded interactions between Europe and the Maghreb. This article calls for an examination of representations of the Mediterranean in Ottoman texts, as well as the envisioning of Ottoman literature as Mediterranean literature. As a case study, I will be analysing a late Ottoman travelogue, the Hac Yolunda (On the Hajj Route; 1909) by Cenab Şahabeddin (1870–1934), a pioneering figure in Ottoman literature. I argue that the Mediterranean as a heuristic device can orient critics of Ottoman literature toward comparative and theoretical approaches that engage with fundamental debates in postcolonial studies and world literature.

    An empirical investigation of four well-known polynomial-size VRP formulations
    (NA, 2018) Öncan, Temel; Department of Business Administration; N/A; Aksen, Deniz; Sadatizamanabad, Mirehsan Hesam; Faculty Member; Department of Business Administration; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; 40308; N/A
    This study presents an in-depth computational analysis of four well-known Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) formulations with polynomial number of subtour elimination constraints: a node-based formulation and three arc-based (single, two- and multi-commodity flow) formulations. For each formulation, several valid inequalities (VIs) are added for the purpose of tightening the formulation. Moreover, a simple topology-driven granulation scheme is proposed to reduce the number of a certain type of VIs. The lower and upper bounding performance and the solution efficiency of the formulations and respective VI configurations are benchmarked with state-of-the-art commercial optimization software. The extensive computational analysis embraces 121 instances with up to 100 customer nodes. We believe that our findings could be useful for practitioners as well as researchers developing algorithms for the CVRP.

    Dynamic accommodation measurement using Purkinje reflections and ML algorithms
    (Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2023) Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; N/A; Aygün, Uğur; Şahin, Afsun; Ürey, Hakan; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; Koç University Research Center for Translational Medicine (KUTTAM) / Koç Üniversitesi Translasyonel Tıp Araştırma Merkezi (KUTTAM); College of Engineering; School of Medicine; N/A; N/A; N/A; 171267; 8579
    We developed a prototype device for dynamic gaze and accommodation measurements based on 4 Purkinje reflections (PR) suitable for use in AR and ophthalmology applications. PR1&2 and PR3&4 are used for accurate gaze and accommodation measurements, respectively. Our eye-model was developed in Zemax and matches the experiments well. Our model predicts the accommodation from 25cm to infinity (<4 diopters) with better than 0,25D accuracy. We performed repeatability tests and obtained accurate gaze and accommodation estimations using 15 subjects. We are generating a large synthetic data set using physically accurate models and machine learning algorithms.
