Accurate prediction of the estrus period is crucial for optimizing insemination efficiency and reducing costs in animal husbandry, a vital sector for global food production. Precise estrus period determination is essential to avoid economic losses, such as milk production reductions, delayed calf births, and disqualification from government support. The proposed method integrates estrus period detection with cow identification using augmented reality (AR). It initiates deep learning-based mounting detection, followed by identifying the mounting region of interest (ROI) using YOLOv5. The ROI is then cropped with padding, and cow ID detection is executed using YOLOv5 on the cropped ROI. The system subsequently records the identified cow IDs. The proposed system accurately detects mounting behavior with 99% accuracy, identifies the ROI where mounting occurs with 98% accuracy, and detects the mounting couple with 94% accuracy. The high success of all operations with the proposed system demonstrates its potential contribution to AR and artificial intelligence applications in livestock farming.

Question answering(QA) is a field in natural language processing and information retrieval, it aims to give answers to the questions using natural language. In this paper, we present the Turkish question answering dataset, which is THQuAD and baseline results with contextualized word embeddings. THQuAD consists of two different datasets one of them is TQuad on Turkish Islamic Science history within the scope of Teknofest 2018 “Artificial Intelligence competition”, the second dataset on Ottoman history within the scope of Teknofest 2020 “Doğal Dil İşleme Yarışması ” prepared by us. THQuAD is a reading comprehension dataset, consisting of questions, answers, and passages. Our objective is to give an answer to a specific question by understanding the passage and extracting the answer from this passage. We generate contextualized word embeddings from pre-trained Turkish Bert, Electra, Albert language models after fine-tuning on different hyperparameters with neural networks.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) do not have a fixed infrastructure and consist of sensor nodes that perform sensing and communicating tasks. The WSNs have large application spectrum such as habitat monitoring, military surveillance, and target tracking, where sensor nodes may operate distributed in highly dynamic environments. Battery-constrained sensor nodes may aggregate the sensed data, localize themselves, and route the packets in an energy-efficient and decentralized manner to enable running the applications. Agents are capable of independent and autonomous action, so that they can successfully carry out tasks that have been delegated to them, thus agent-based approaches are very suitable to apply as the solution of the problems occurring in WSNs. So far many agent-based approaches were proposed for WSNs. This paper surveys the agent technologies for sensor networks by providing a classification, objectives and costs of these approaches with the open research problems. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that covers the intersection of the agent technology and sensor networks from a wide perspective.

Natural language inference (NLI) is a subfield of natural language processing (NLP) that aims to identify the contextual relationship between premise and hypothesis sentences. While high-resource languages like English benefit from robust and rich NLI datasets, creating similar datasets for low-resource languages is challenging due to the cost and complexity of manual annotation. Although translation of existing datasets offers a practical solution, direct translation of domain-specific datasets presents unique challenges, particularly in handling abbreviations, metric conversions, and cultural alignment. This study introduces a pipeline for translating a medical NLI dataset into Turkish, which is a low-resource language. Our approach employs fine-tuning the Llama-3.1 model with selected samples from the Medical Abbreviation dataset (MeDAL) to extract and resolve medical abbreviations. Consequently, NLI pairs are refined with extracted abbreviations and subjected to metric correction. Later, the processed sentences are then translated using Facebook’s No Language Left Behind (NLLB) translation model. To ensure quality, we conducted comprehensive evaluations using both machine learning models and medical expert review. Our results show that BERTurk achieved 75.17% accuracy on TurkMedNLI test data and 76.30% on the normalized test set, while BioBERTurk demonstrated comparable performance with 75.59% accuracy on test data and 72.29% on the normalized dataset. Medical experts further validated the translations through manual assessment of sampled sentences. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of large language models in adapting domain-specific datasets for low-resource languages, establishing a foundation for future research in multilingual biomedical NLP.
