This article uses the exhibition “Infinite Skulls”, which happened in Paris in the beginning of 2019, as a starting point to discuss art created by artificial intelligence and, by extension, unique pieces of art generated by algorithms. We detail the development of DCGAN, the deep learning neural network used in the show, from its cybernetics origin. The show and its creation process are described, identifying elements of creativity and technique, as well as question of the authorship of works. Then it frames these works in the context of generative art, pointing affinities and differences, and the issues of representing through procedures and abstractions. It describes the major breakthrough of neural network for technical images as the ability to represent categories through an abstraction, rather than images themselves. Finally, it tries to understand neural networks more as a tool for artists than an autonomous art creator.

Abstract. Crustal thickness is an important factor affecting lithospheric structure and deep geodynamics. In this paper, a deep learning neural network based on a stacked sparse auto-encoder is proposed for the inversion of crustal thickness in eastern Tibet and the western Yangtze craton. First, with the phase velocity of the Rayleigh surface wave as input and the theoretical crustal thickness as output, 12 deep-sSAE neural networks are constructed, which are trained by 380 000 and tested by 120 000 theoretical models. We then invert the observed phase velocities through these 12 neural networks. According to the test error and misfit of other crustal thickness models, the optimal crustal thickness model is selected as the crustal thickness of the study area. Compared with other ways to detect crustal thickness such as seismic wave reflection and receiver function, we adopt a new way for inversion of earth model parameters, and realize that a deep learning neural network based on data driven with the highly non-linear mapping ability can be widely used by geophysicists, and our result has good agreement with high-resolution crustal thickness models. Compared with other methods, our experimental results based on a deep learning neural network and a new Rayleigh wave phase velocity model reveal some details: there is a northward-dipping Moho gradient zone in the Qiangtang block and a relatively shallow north-west–south-east oriented crust at the Songpan–Ganzi block. Crustal thickness around Xi'an and the Ordos basin is shallow, about 35 km. The change in crustal thickness in the Sichuan–Yunnan block is sharp, where crustal thickness is 60 km north-west and 35 km south-east. We conclude that the deep learning neural network is a promising, efficient, and believable geophysical inversion tool.

Many times, training a large scale deep learning neural network on a single machine becomes more and more difficult for a complex network model. Distributed training provides an efficient solution, but Byzantine attacks may occur on participating workers. They may be compromised or suffer from hardware failures. If they upload poisonous gradients, the training will become unstable or even converge to a saddle point. In this paper, we propose FABA, a Fast Aggregation algorithm against Byzantine Attacks, which removes the outliers in the uploaded gradients and obtains gradients that are close to the true gradients. We show the convergence of our algorithm. The experiments demonstrate that our algorithm can achieve similar performance to non-Byzantine case and higher efficiency as compared to previous algorithms.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have recently grown in popularity in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) due to their unique ability to ingest relatively unstructured data types as input data. Although some elements of the GNN architecture are conceptually similar in operation to traditional neural networks (and neural network variants), other elements represent a departure from traditional deep learning techniques. This tutorial exposes the power and novelty of GNNs to AI practitioners by collating and presenting details regarding the motivations, concepts, mathematics, and applications of the most common and performant variants of GNNs. Importantly, we present this tutorial concisely, alongside practical examples, thus providing a practical and accessible tutorial on the topic of GNNs.

Abstract Background Recently, there has been considerable innovation in artificial intelligence (AI) for healthcare. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) show excellent object detection and classification performance. This study assessed the accuracy of an artificial intelligence (AI) application for the detection of marginal bone loss on periapical radiographs. Methods A Faster region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN) was trained. Overall, 1670 periapical radiographic images were divided into training (n = 1370), validation (n = 150), and test (n = 150) datasets. The system was evaluated in terms of sensitivity, specificity, the mistake diagnostic rate, the omission diagnostic rate, and the positive predictive value. Kappa (κ) statistics were compared between the system and dental clinicians. Results Evaluation metrics of AI system is equal to resident dentist. The agreement between the AI system and expert is moderate to substantial (κ = 0.547 and 0.568 for bone loss sites and bone loss implants, respectively) for detecting marginal bone loss around dental implants. Conclusions This AI system based on Faster R-CNN analysis of periapical radiographs is a highly promising auxiliary diagnostic tool for peri-implant bone loss detection.

In this chapter, an AI (artificial intelligence) solution for LPR (license plate recognition) on moving vehicles is proposed. The license plates in images captured with cameras on moving vehicles have unpredictable distortion and various illumination which make traditional machine vision algorithms unable to recognize the numbers correctly. Therefore, deep learning is leveraged to recognize license plate in such challenging conditions for better recognition accuracy. Additionally, lightweight neural networks are chosen since the power supply of scooter is quite limited. A two-stage method is presented to recognize license plate. First, the license plates in captured images are detected using CNN (convolutional neural network) model and the rotation of the detected license plates are corrected. Subsequently, the characters are recognized as upper-case format (A-Z) and digits (0-9) with second CNN model. Experimental results show that the system achieves 95.7% precision and 95% recall at high speed during the daytime.

Motivated by the recent interest of stock traders and investors towards the deep learning neural network, this study employs the deep learning neural networks, namely, multilayer perceptron, long short-term memory, and convolutional neural network, to forecast the Asian Tiger stock markets. One of the challenges to using deep learning neural networks is to select the input variable. We propose to use multiple linear regression to select the input variable that is significant to the output. Besides, we construct a regional stock market index as a significant input to forecast the Asian Tiger stock markets. A comparison study on the forecasting model shows that the deep learning model can be used as a decision-making system that assists investors to predict short-term movement and trends of stock prices.
