Happy to share our latest paper titled “Graph Receptive Transformer Encoder (GRTE) for Text Classification” published in IEEE Transactions on Signal and Information Processing over Networks! Our novel approach combines graph neural networks (GNNs) with large-scale pre-trained models to address limitations in attention mechanisms of transformers for text classification. GRTE retrieves global and contextual information […]

Please check our new article at the intersection of machine learning and signal processing published at IEEE Signal Processing Letters! We extend the theory of FrFT, a parametric signal transformation, by introducing it as a trainable layer in neural network architectures. We showed that the transformation parameters can be learned along with the remaining network […]

Our collaborative work at UMRAM, Departments of Psychology and Electrical and Electronics Engineering of Bilkent University, and Department of Psychiatry of Hacettepe University on NLP-based approaches to understand schizophrenia is now published at Schizophrenia Research! In this study, we applied multiple natural language processing (NLP) methods for defining linguistic features of Turkish, a non-Indo-European language, […]

The 34th Graduate Research Conference, organized by the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EE) and the IEEE Student Branch, took place on Thursday, January 25 in the lecture halls on the ground floor of the EE building. Bilkent EE graduate students described their state-of-the-art research projects in oral and poster presentations during this day-long […]
