Open detail

• Forensic File CarverA C# forensic file-carving implementation that scans large binary sources as streams, shares signature prefixes in a byte trie, and applies format-aware boundary checks when a defensible end position can be determined.
• Forensic Telephony WAVE DecoderA Java decoder for RIFF/WAVE telephony audio that expands PCM and G.711 A-law/μ-law into PCM16 working copies while preserving the forensic distinction between evidence and derived analysis data.
• DCT Perceptual HashA C# image-similarity component that derives a 64-bit perceptual signature from a 64×64 DCT workspace and reduces later comparisons to XOR and Hamming distance.
• Variance Image QuantizerA C# RGBA quantizer that uses four-dimensional cumulative moments and variance-driven box splitting, then evaluates the actual encoded PNG size during iterative palette reduction.
• Turkish Finite-State SyllabifierA C# Turkish syllabifier that projects words onto vowel/consonant patterns and emits syllables through a 20-state table-driven finite-state transducer in linear time.
• Turkish Numeric SoundexA C# Soundex adaptation for Turkish names that normalizes Turkish-specific characters and packs the conventional phonetic code into a single Int32 candidate key.
• DbDataReader Streaming SerializationA C# serialization layer that streams DbDataReader results directly to JSON or XML through typed getters, avoiding DataTable/DTO materialization and resolving stable schema metadata once.
• CSV EnumerableA C# streaming mapper for controlled delimiter-separated data that resolves header/property mappings once and reads .gz inputs directly through GZipStream.
• RFID Keyboard-Wedge ReaderA .NET component that reconstructs a 4-byte RFID UID from eight hexadecimal keyboard events, handling Turkish Q/F layouts and keeping the per-key path allocation-minimal.
• Dynamic QR Code GeneratorA C# QR Code Model 2 encoder implementing mode selection, Reed-Solomon error correction, module placement, evaluation of all eight masks, and raster output without delegating the pipeline to a QR service.
• Lightweight AES-128A compact C implementation of the AES-128 block primitive that operates on 16-byte blocks without heap allocation and exposes the round transformations and key schedule directly.
• Turkish Identity Number ValidatorA small C# validator that checks Turkish identity-number check digits directly on a long, without regex, substring extraction or character-array materialization.
• HTS/CDR Analyzer for JavaOffline Java research software for HTS/CDR-style records with source provenance, RAW/DEDUP separation, and explainable contact, IMEI, temporal, and cell-site analysis.

Algorithms developed and optimized for specific mathematical, statistical and software-engineering problems.

• Subset Sum Algorithm Optimization and ParallelizationAn optimization project comparing exhaustive subset enumeration, dynamic programming and thread-based parallelism for counting subsets whose values match a target sum.
• NFA-to-DFA ConverterA finite-automata project that converts an NFA defined by transitions and accepting states into an equivalent DFA through reachable state subsets.
