Deep Meta-learning based Fault Detection algorithms leveraging multi modal sensor information 

One of our recent research topics focuses on deep meta-learning algorithms and sensor fusion techniques within the domain of fault diagnosis. Deep meta-learning aims to train models that can rapidly adapt to new tasks using limited data, making it particularly useful in dynamic environments where faults arise under varying conditions. By utilizing prior knowledge from related tasks, meta-learning algorithms enhance generalization across diverse fault scenarios. Sensor fusion, meanwhile, combines data from multiple sensors to enhance the quality of information for fault diagnosis. This integration mitigates individual sensor limitations, such as noise or incomplete data, by fusing complementary signals. By unifying sensor data into a single representation, meta-learning models are able to capture complex patterns and relationships, thereby improving diagnostic accuracy and facilitating early fault detection. Together, these approaches contribute to the development of robust, adaptive fault diagnosis systems capable of managing the complexities of real-world sensor data.

Time series forecasting problems have traditionally been a field dominated by machine learning and deep learning techniques. However, in recent years, there has been a significant change in this area with the impact of large language models (LLMs) in different fields. This study aims to investigate how LLMs developed for natural language processing tasks can be adapted for more accurate and efficient prediction of financial time series data. Within the scope of the research, the innovations offered by LLMs in solving complex forecasting problems are analysed in comparison with traditional methods. During this examination, the advantages and limitations of LLMs are evaluated and potential breakthroughs and innovative approaches in the field are explored. As a result, it is aimed to increase the knowledge on the use of LLMs in time series forecasting and to contribute to the development of industry-oriented predictive analytical solutions in this field.

Detection of rare-diseases from DNA sequences by utilizing Artificial Intelligence 

This project focuses on developing an advanced framework using Large Language Models (LLMs) to classify DNA sequences associated with rare diseases and predict phenotypic outcomes. Rare diseases are difficult to diagnose due to their complex genetic foundations and limited data. By leveraging transformer-based models like DNABERT and T5, this framework will enhance diagnostic accuracy and deepen the understanding of genotype-phenotype relationships. Data will be sourced from public and proprietary genomic databases, ensuring a diverse and well-annotated dataset, while adhering to GDPR guidelines. Despite challenges like limited data, this approach aims to improve diagnosis, discover new genetic mutations, and advance therapies for rare diseases.
