AbstractA lot of hype has recently been generated around deep learning, a group of artificial intelligence approaches able to break accuracy records in pattern recognition. Over the course of just a few years, deep learning revolutionized several research fields such as bioinformatics or medicine. Yet such a surge of tools and knowledge is still in its infancy in ecology despite the ever-growing size and the complexity of ecological datasets. Here we performed a literature review of deep learning implementations in ecology to identify its benefits in most ecological disciplines, even in applied ecology, up to decision makers and conservationists alike. We also provide guidelines on useful resources and recommendations for ecologists to start adding deep learning to their toolkit. At a time when automatic monitoring of populations and ecosystems generates a vast amount of data that cannot be processed by humans anymore, deep learning could become a necessity in ecology.

Abstract PURPOSE Identifying molecular subtypes in gliomas has prognostic and therapeutic value, traditionally after invasive neurosurgical tumor resection or biopsy. Recent advances using artificial intelligence (AI) show promise in using pre-therapy imaging for predicting molecular subtype. We performed a systematic review of recent literature on AI methods used to predict molecular subtypes of gliomas. METHODS Literature review conforming to PRSIMA guidelines was performed for publications prior to February 2021 using 4 databases: Ovid Embase, Ovid MEDLINE, Cochrane trials (CENTRAL), and Web of Science core-collection. Keywords included: artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, radiomics, magnetic resonance imaging, glioma, and glioblastoma. Non-machine learning and non-human studies were excluded. Screening was performed using Covidence software. Bias analysis was done using TRIPOD guidelines. RESULTS 11,727 abstracts were retrieved. After applying initial screening exclusion criteria, 1,135 full text reviews were performed, with 82 papers remaining for data extraction. 57% used retrospective single center hospital data, 31.6% used TCIA and BRATS, and 11.4% analyzed multicenter hospital data. An average of 146 patients (range 34-462 patients) were included. Algorithms predicting IDH status comprised 51.8% of studies, MGMT 18.1%, and 1p19q 6.0%. Machine learning methods were used in 71.4%, deep learning in 27.4%, and 1.2% directly compared both methods. The most common algorithm for machine learning were support vector machine (43.3%), and for deep learning convolutional neural network (68.4%). Mean prediction accuracy was 76.6%. CONCLUSION Machine learning is the predominant method for image-based prediction of glioma molecular subtypes. Major limitations include limited datasets (60.2% with under 150 patients) and thus limited generalizability of findings. We recommend using larger annotated datasets for AI network training and testing in order to create more robust AI algorithms, which will provide better prediction accuracy to real world clinical datasets and provide tools that can be translated to clinical practice.

Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning are good fields of research. Recently, the brother of Artificial Intelligence titled "Artificial Satisfaction" was introduced in literature [10]. In this article, we coin the term “Deep Loving”. After the publication of this article, "Deep Loving" will be considered as the friend of Deep Learning. Proposing a new field is different from proposing a new algorithm. In this paper, we strongly focus on defining and introducing "Deep Loving Field" to Research Scientists across the globe. The future of the "Deep Loving" field is predicted by showing few future opportunities in this new field. The definition of Deep Learning is shown followed by a literature review of the "Deep Loving" field. The World's First Deep Loving Algorithm (WFDLA) is designed and implemented in this work by adding Deep Loving concepts to Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm. Results obtained by WFDLA are compared with the PSO algorithm.

The rapid increase of information and accessibility in recent years has activated a paradigm shift in algorithm design for artificial intelligence. Recently, deep learning (a surrogate of Machine Learning) have won several contests in pattern recognition and machine learning. This review comprehensively summarises relevant studies, much of it from prior state-of-the-art techniques. This paper also discusses the motivations and principles regarding learning algorithms for deep architectures.

In the information era, enormous amounts of data have become available on hand to decision makers. Big data refers to datasets that are not only big, but also high in variety and velocity, which makes them difficult to handle using traditional tools and techniques. Due to the rapid growth of such data, solutions need to be studied and provided in order to handle and extract value and knowledge from these datasets. Machine learning is a method of data analysis that automates analytical model building. It is a branch of artificial intelligence based on the idea that systems can learn from data, identify patterns and make decisions with minimal human intervention. Such minimal human intervention can be provided using machine learning, which is the application of advanced deep learning techniques on big data. This paper aims to analyse some of the different machine learning and deep learning algorithms and methods, aswell as the opportunities provided by the AI applications in various decision making domains.

Penyakit Virus Corona 19 (COVID-19) merupakan penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh virus corona yang baru-baru ini ditemukan. Saat ini COVID-19 menjadi fenomena permasalahan untuk kita semua namun hingga sekarang belum ada obat yang ditemukan ampuh dalam mengatasinya. Persoalan lain adalah pada proses pendeteksian orang terjangkit. Hasil pendeteksian Covid-19 menggunakan PCR Swap masih dianggap sangat lambat dan menggunakan Rapid Tes bahkan dianggap kurang meyakinkan dengan melihat beberapa kasus yang ada sebelumnya. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk pendeteksian orang terjangkit COVID-19 lebih cepat dengan tingkat akurasi yang tinggi menggunakan metode Artificial Intelligence yang lebih khusus menggunakan Deep Learning arsitektur Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah literature review, dimana artikel dikumpulkan dan diproses menggunakan aplikasi mendeley, kriteria artikel yang digunakan adalah yang diterbitkan tahun 2020 yang berkaitan dengan penanganan COVID-19 khususnya yang memanfaatkan Artificial Intelligence dalam pembahasannya. Dengan mengumpulkan dan membahas beberapa penelitian yang ada maka dapat dikatakan bahwa dengan menggunakan Artificial Intelligence sistem dapat mendeteksi terjangkitnya seseorang melalui analisa pola yang ada pada hasil CT Scan Paru dengan memanfaatkan tingkat akurasi data latih yang ada.


Deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) have attracted many attentions of researchers in the field of artificial intelligence. Based on several well-known architectures, more researchers and designers have joined the field of applying deep learning and devising a large number of CNNs for processing datasets of interesting. Equipped with modern audio, video, screen-touching components, and other sensors for online pattern recognition, the iOS mobile devices provide developers and users friendly testing and powerful computing environments. This chapter introduces the trend of developing pattern recognition CNN Apps on iOS devices and the neural organization of convolutional neural networks. Deep learning in Matlab and executing CNN models on iOS devices are introduced following the motivation of combining mathematical modelling and computation with neural architectures for developing pattern recognition iOS apps. This chapter also gives contexts of discussing typical hidden layers in the CNN architecture.

The advances in deep learning algorithms, exponential computing power, and availability of digital patient data like never before have led to the wave of interest and investment in artificial intelligence in health care. No radiology conference is complete without a substantial dedication to AI. Many radiology departments are keen to get involved but are unsure of where and how to begin. This short article provides a simple road map to aid departments to get involved with the technology, demystify key concepts, and pique an interest in the field. We have broken down the journey into seven steps; problem, team, data, kit, neural network, validation, and governance.
