Taskin Kavzoglu's Homepage

Welcome to My Homepage,

        I am an associate proffesor working at Gebze Institute of Technology. I am from Trabzon, Turkey where I graduated from Geodesy and Photogrammetry Department of Karadeniz Technical University in 1993. Then, I started my MSc degree on close-range photogrammetry while I was working as a research assistant at the same department. In 1995 I was awarded by Turkish Government to pursue my master and PhD degrees abroad as a result of a national examination. I successfully completed my master degree on Geographical Information Systems in 1997 and my PhD degree on Remote Sensing at The University of Nottingham. The aim of my PhD supervised by Prof. Paul M. Mather was to find out the behaviour of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and produce some guidelines on how to design and use ANNs effectively. Currently, my research interests are remote sensing, ANNs, and pruning techniques. You can check my publications here and my CV in detail here. I am happily married to Sebnem who gave me two sons, BERKAY and TURKAY.  You can visit my Official Site at Gebze Institute of Technology.
