Erken sinyal tespit etmek is a non-finite verbal clause—an infinitive phrase made of the noun tespit (“detection”), the light verb etmek (“to do”), and the infinitive ending -mek. It serves as the subject of the main clause, meaning “detecting early signals.”

Why is there a comma after Erken sinyal tespit etmek?

Turkish allows a comma before the main verb to separate a lengthy or complex subject clause from the predicate. Here it marks the boundary between the infinitive subject and the main verb phrase yardımcı olur.

Why is sorunu in the accusative case?

Sorun (“problem”) takes the accusative suffix -u to become sorunu because it’s a definite direct object—“the problem.” In Turkish, definite objects are marked with -ı/-i/-u/-ü according to vowel harmony.
