This article describes how spam detection in the social media text is becoming increasing important because of the exponential increase in the spam volume over the network. It is challenging, especially in case of text within the limited number of characters. Effective spam detection requires more number of efficient features to be learned. In the current article, the use of a deep learning technology known as a convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed for spam detection with an added semantic layer on the top of it. The resultant model is known as a semantic convolutional neural network (SCNN). A semantic layer is composed of training the random word vectors with the help of Word2vec to get the semantically enriched word embedding. WordNet and ConceptNet are used to find the word similar to a given word, in case it is missing in the word2vec. The architecture is evaluated on two corpora: SMS Spam dataset (UCI repository) and Twitter dataset (Tweets scrapped from public live tweets). The authors' approach outperforms the-state-of-the-art results with 98.65% accuracy on SMS spam dataset and 94.40% accuracy on Twitter dataset.

Automatic logo based document image retrieval process is an essential and mostly used method in the feature extraction applications. In this paper the architecture of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was elaborately explained with pictorial representations in order to understand the complex Convolutional Neural Networks process in a simplified way. The main objective of this paper is to effectively utilize the CNN in the process of automatic logo based document image retrieval methods.

Image Production

Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is extensively used technique for image retrieval from large image databases. However, users are not satisfied with the conventional image retrieval techniques. In addition, the advent of web development and transmission networks, the number of images available to users continues to increase. Therefore, a permanent and considerable digital image production in many areas takes place. Quick access to the similar images of a given query image from this extensive collection of images pose great challenges and require proficient techniques. From query by image to retrieval of relevant images, CBIR has key phases such as feature extraction, similarity measurement, and retrieval of relevant images. However, extracting the features of the images is one of the important steps. Recently Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) shows good results in the field of computer vision due to the ability of feature extraction from the images. Alex Net is a classical Deep CNN for image feature extraction. We have modified the Alex Net Architecture with a few changes and proposed a novel framework to improve its ability for feature extraction and for similarity measurement. The proposal approach optimizes Alex Net in the aspect of pooling layer. In particular, average pooling is replaced by max-avg pooling and the non-linear activation function Maxout is used after every Convolution layer for better feature extraction. This paper introduces CNN for features extraction from images in CBIR system and also presents Euclidean distance along with the Comprehensive Values for better results. The proposed framework goes beyond image retrieval, including the large-scale database. The performance of the proposed work is evaluated using precision. The proposed work show better results than existing works.

The widespread deployment of social media has helped researchers access an enormous amount of data in various domains, including the pandemic caused by the COVID-19 spread. This study presents a heuristic approach to classify Commercial Instagram Posts (CIPs) and explores how the businesses around the Holy Shrine – a sacred complex in Mashhad, Iran, surrounded by numerous shopping centers – were impacted by the pandemic. Two datasets of Instagram posts (one gathered data from March 14th to April 10th, 2020, when Holy Shrine and nearby shops were closed, and one extracted data from the same period in 2019), two word embedding models – aimed at vectorizing associated caption of each post, and two neural networks – multi-layer perceptron and convolutional neural network – were employed to classify CIPs in 2019. Among the scenarios defined for the 2019 CIPs classification, the results revealed that the combination of MLP and CBoW achieved the best performance, which was then used for the 2020 CIPs classification. It is found out that the fraction of CIPs to total Instagram posts has increased from 5.58% in 2019 to 8.08% in 2020, meaning that business owners were using Instagram to increase their sales and continue their commercial activities to compensate for the closure of their stores during the pandemic. Moreover, the portion of non-commercial Instagram posts (NCIPs) in total posts has decreased from 94.42% in 2019 to 91.92% in 2020, implying the fact that since the Holy Shrine was closed, Mashhad citizens and tourists could not visit it and take photos to post on their Instagram accounts.

Abstract The patent database is often used in searches of inspirational stimuli for innovative design opportunities because of its large size, extensive variety and rich design information in patent documents. However, most patent mining research only focuses on textual information and ignores visual information. Herein, we propose a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based patent image retrieval method. The core of this approach is a novel neural network architecture named Dual-VGG that is aimed to accomplish two tasks: visual material type prediction and international patent classification (IPC) class label prediction. In turn, the trained neural network provides the deep features in the image embedding vectors that can be utilized for patent image retrieval and visual mapping. The accuracy of both training tasks and patent image embedding space are evaluated to show the performance of our model. This approach is also illustrated in a case study of robot arm design retrieval. Compared to traditional keyword-based searching and Google image searching, the proposed method discovers more useful visual information for engineering design.

Fake news on social media is a major challenge and studies have shown that fake news can propagate exponentially quickly in early stages. Therefore, we focus on early detection of fake news, and consider that only news article text is available at the time of detection, since additional information such as user responses and propagation patterns can be obtained only after the news spreads. However, we find historical user responses to previous articles are available and can be treated as soft semantic labels, that enrich the binary label of an article, by providing insights into why the article must be labeled as fake. We propose a novel Two-Level Convolutional Neural Network with User Response Generator (TCNN-URG) where TCNN captures semantic information from article text by representing it at the sentence and word level, and URG learns a generative model of user response to article text from historical user responses which it can use to generate responses to new articles in order to assist fake news detection. We conduct experiments on one available dataset and a larger dataset collected by ourselves. Experimental results show that TCNN-URG outperforms the baselines based on prior approaches that detect fake news from article text alone.
