BackgroundSince the emergence of COVID-19 in December 2019, multidisciplinary research teams have wrestled with how best to control the pandemic in light of its considerable physical, psychological and economic damage. Mass testing has been advocated as a potential remedy; however, mass testing using physical tests is a costly and hard-to-scale solution.MethodsThis study demonstrates the feasibility of an alternative form of COVID-19 detection, harnessing digital technology through the use of audio biomarkers and deep learning. Specifically, we show that a deep neural network based model can be trained to detect symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19 cases using breath and cough audio recordings.ResultsOur model, a custom convolutional neural network, demonstrates strong empirical performance on a data set consisting of 355 crowdsourced participants, achieving an area under the curve of the receiver operating characteristics of 0.846 on the task of COVID-19 classification.ConclusionThis study offers a proof of concept for diagnosing COVID-19 using cough and breath audio signals and motivates a comprehensive follow-up research study on a wider data sample, given the evident advantages of a low-cost, highly scalable digital COVID-19 diagnostic tool.

Considering that the garbage classification is urgent, a 23-layer convolutional neural network (CNN) model is designed in this paper, with the emphasis on the real-time garbage classification, to solve the low accuracy of garbage classification and recycling and difficulty in manual recycling. Firstly, the depthwise separable convolution was used to reduce the Params of the model. Then, the attention mechanism was used to improve the accuracy of the garbage classification model. Finally, the model fine-tuning method was used to further improve the performance of the garbage classification model. Besides, we compared the model with classic image classification models including AlexNet, VGG16, and ResNet18 and lightweight classification models including MobileNetV2 and SuffleNetV2 and found that the model GAF_dense has a higher accuracy rate, fewer Params, and FLOPs. To further check the performance of the model, we tested the CIFAR-10 data set and found the accuracy rates of the model (GAF_dense) are 0.018 and 0.03 higher than ResNet18 and SufflenetV2, respectively. In the ImageNet data set, the accuracy rates of the model (GAF_dense) are 0.225 and 0.146 higher than Resnet18 and SufflenetV2, respectively. Therefore, the garbage classification model proposed in this paper is suitable for garbage classification and other classification tasks to protect the ecological environment, which can be applied to classification tasks such as environmental science, children’s education, and environmental protection.

BACKGROUND: Convolution neural network is often superior to other similar algorithms in image classification. Convolution layer and sub-sampling layer have the function of extracting sample features, and the feature of sharing weights greatly reduces the training parameters of the network. OBJECTIVE: This paper describes the improved convolution neural network structure, including convolution layer, sub-sampling layer and full connection layer. This paper also introduces five kinds of diseases and normal eye images reflected by the blood filament of the eyeball “yan.mat” data set, convenient to use MATLAB software for calculation. METHODSL: In this paper, we improve the structure of the classical LeNet-5 convolutional neural network, and design a network structure with different convolution kernels, different sub-sampling methods and different classifiers, and use this structure to solve the problem of ocular bloodstream disease recognition. RESULTS: The experimental results show that the improved convolutional neural network structure is ideal for the recognition of eye blood silk data set, which shows that the convolution neural network has the characteristics of strong classification and strong robustness. The improved structure can classify the diseases reflected by eyeball bloodstain well.

In the present era, cyberspace is growing tremendously and the intrusion detection system (IDS) plays a key role in it to ensure information security. The IDS, which works in network and host level, should be capable of identifying various malicious attacks. The job of network-based IDS is to differentiate between normal and malicious traffic data and raise an alert in case of an attack. Apart from the traditional signature and anomaly-based approaches, many researchers have employed various deep learning (DL) techniques for detecting intrusion as DL models are capable of extracting salient features automatically from the input data. The application of deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), which is utilized quite often for solving research problems in image processing and vision fields, is not explored much for IDS. In this paper, a DCNN architecture for IDS which is trained on KDDCUP 99 data set is proposed. This work also shows that the DCNN-IDS model performs superior when compared with other existing works.

The Face

In order to improve the low accuracy of the face recognition methods in the case of e-health, this paper proposed a novel face recognition approach, which is based on convolutional neural network (CNN). In detail, through resolving the convolutional kernel, rectified linear unit (ReLU) activation function, dropout, and batch normalization, this novel approach reduces the number of parameters of the CNN model, improves the non-linearity of the CNN model, and alleviates overfitting of the CNN model. In these ways, the accuracy of face recognition is increased. In the experiments, the proposed approach is compared with principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machine (SVM) on ORL, Cohn-Kanade, and extended Yale-B face recognition data set, and it proves that this approach is promising.

Demand Forecasting Model

With the development of online cars, the demand for travel prediction is increasing in order to reduce the information asymmetry between passengers and drivers of online car-hailing. This paper proposes a travel demand forecasting model named OC-CNN based on the convolutional neural network to forecast the travel demand. In order to make full use of the spatial characteristics of the travel demand distribution, this paper meshes the prediction area and creates a travel demand data set of the graphical structure to preserve its spatial properties. Taking advantage of the convolutional neural network in image feature extraction, the historical demand data of the first twenty-five minutes of the entire region are used as a model input to predict the travel demand for the next five minutes. In order to verify the performance of the proposed method, one-month data from online car-hailing of the Chengdu Fourth Ring Road are used. The results show that the model successfully extracts the spatiotemporal features of the data, and the prediction accuracies of the proposed method are superior to those of the representative methods, including the Bayesian Ridge Model, Linear Regression, Support Vector Regression, and Long Short-Term Memory networks.
