Cybersecurity is a very emerging field that protects systems, networks, and data from digital attacks. With the increase in the scale of the Internet and the evolution of cyber attacks, developing novel cybersecurity tools has become important, particularly for Internet of things (IoT) networks. This paper provides a systematic review of the application of deep learning (DL) approaches for cybersecurity. This paper provides a short description of DL methods which is used in cybersecurity, including deep belief networks, generative adversarial networks, recurrent neural networks, and others. Next, we illustrate the differences between shallow learning and DL. Moreover, a discussion is provided on the currently prevailing cyber-attacks in IoT and other networks, and the effectiveness of DL methods to manage these attacks. Besides, this paper describes studies that highlight the DL technique, cybersecurity applications, and the source of datasets. Next, a discussion is provided on the feasibility of DL systems for malware detection and classification, intrusion detection, and other frequent cyber-attacks, including identifying file type, spam, and network traffic. Our review indicates that high classification accuracy of 99.72% is obtained by restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) when applied to a custom dataset, while long short-term memory (LSTM) achieves an accuracy of 99.80% for KDD Cup 99 dataset. Finally, this article discusses the importance of cybersecurity for reliable and practicable IoT-driven healthcare systems., Comment: 14 Pages, 8 Figures

Because of todays technological developments and the influence of digital systems into every aspect of our lives, importance of cyber security improves more and more day-by-day. Projects, educational processes and seminars realized for this aim create and improve awareness among individuals and provide useful tools for growing equipped generations. The aim of this study is to focus on a cyber security eco-system, which was self-occurred within the interactive educational environment designed under the scope of TUBITAK 4004 Nature Education and Science Schools Projects (with the name of A Cyber Security Adventure) with the use of important technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence. The eco-system occurred within the interactive educational process where high school students took place caused both students and the project team to experience an indirect social experiment environment. In this sense, it is thought that the findings and comments presented in the study will give important ideas to everyone involved in cyber security education, life-long learning processes, and the technology use in software oriented educational tools., Comment: International Scientific and Vocational Studies Congress - Engineering 2019, pp. 505-513, 3 figures, 1 table

Artificial intelligence is known as the most effective technological field for rapid developments shaping the future of the world. Even today, it is possible to see intense use of intelligence systems in all fields of the life. Although advantages of the Artificial Intelligence are widely observed, there is also a dark side employing efforts to design hacking oriented techniques against Artificial Intelligence. Thanks to such techniques, it is possible to trick intelligent systems causing directed results for unsuccessful outputs. That is critical for also cyber wars of the future as it is predicted that the wars will be done unmanned, autonomous intelligent systems. Moving from the explanations, objective of this study is to provide information regarding adversarial examples threatening the Artificial Intelligence and focus on details of some techniques, which are used for creating adversarial examples. Adversarial examples are known as training data, which can trick a Machine Learning technique to learn incorrectly about the target problem and cause an unsuccessful or maliciously directed intelligent system at the end. The study enables the readers to learn enough about details of recent techniques for creating adversarial examples., Comment: International Science and Innovation Congress 2019, pp. 643-655, 13 pages, 10 figures

Software testing process consists of activities that implemented after it is planned and including to document related testing activities. Test processes must be applied necessarily for able to clearly see the quality of software, the degree of reliability, whether it is ready for delivery, the degree of effectiveness and remains of how much testing. One of the most important phase of these processes is test planning activities. Test planning activities directly affects the project's success in software projects. In this study, software testing process, and test planning activities carried out in this process was first clearly demonstrated by the literature review. Later, a basic software testing process and test planning process were determined and explained step by step. In this way, it was aimed to give a different and deep perspective to the test planning activities and to raise awareness on the topic. As a result of the research, it was seen that the test planning activities are not applied adequately at present, software testers, experts or researchers do not have enough knowledge about the details of the method, and this situation causes very serious negative results in the delivery and cost in software projects. Finally, the topic was discussed in detail, and some conclusions and recommendations were given for the personnel in the field of software testing. In this point, the study is expected to contribute the literature., Comment: 19 pages, 2 tables

It is very important to adhere strictly to ethical and social influences when delivering most of our life to artificial intelligence systems. With industry 4.0, the internet of things, data analysis and automation have begun to be of great importance in our lives. With the Yapanese version of Industry 5.0, it has come to our attention that machine-human interaction and human intelligence are working in harmony with the cognitive computer. In this context, robots working on artificial intelligence algorithms co-ordinated with the development of technology have begun to enter our lives. But the consequences of the recent complaints of the Robots have been that important issues have arisen about how to be followed in terms of intellectual property and ethics. Although there are no laws regulating robots in our country at present, laws on robot ethics and rights abroad have entered into force. This means that it is important that we organize the necessary arrangements in the way that robots and artificial intelligence are so important in the new world order. In this study, it was aimed to examine the existing rules of machine and robot ethics and to set an example for the arrangements to be made in our country, and various discussions were given in this context., Comment: 8 pages

The aim of the current work is to assess the challenges that gamification in education are facing nowadays. Benefits and disadvantages of using gamification in classroom are both discussed to offer a clearer view on the impact of using gamification within learning process. Exploratory study cases are provided to investigate the relation between motivation and engagement of the students and gamification in training. Following this idea, a survey was conducted to assess how students behavior and motivation is affected by introducing a single, specific gamification element during a semester learning process. To stimulate competition among students, a ranking type plugin was introduced within the university learning management system used for extramural education. The results prove that motivation decreases by comparison to the previous semester., Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures

The objective of this paper is to introduce an artificial intelligence based optimization approach, which is inspired from Piagets theory on cognitive development. The approach has been designed according to essential processes that an individual may experience while learning something new or improving his / her knowledge. These processes are associated with the Piagets ideas on an individuals cognitive development. The approach expressed in this paper is a simple algorithm employing swarm intelligence oriented tasks in order to overcome single-objective optimization problems. For evaluating effectiveness of this early version of the algorithm, test operations have been done via some benchmark functions. The obtained results show that the approach / algorithm can be an alternative to the literature in terms of single-objective optimization. The authors have suggested the name: Cognitive Development Optimization Algorithm (CoDOA) for the related intelligent optimization approach., Comment: 8 pages, 1 figure, 2 tables
