In the sign language fingerspelling scheme, letters in the alphabet are presented by a distinctive finger shape or movement. The presented work is conducted for autokinetic translating fingerspelling signs to text. A recognition framework by using intensity and depth information is proposed and compared with some distinguished works. Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) and Zernike moments are used as discriminative features due to their simplicity and good performance. A Deep Belief Network (DBN) composed of three Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) is used as a classifier. Experiments are executed on a challenging database, which consists of 120,000 pictures representing 24 alphabet letters over five different users. The proposed approach obtained higher average accuracy, outperforming all other methods. This indicates the effectiveness and the abilities of the proposed framework.

Background: Enhancing the resiliency of electric power grids is becoming a crucial issue due to the outages that have recently occurred. One solution could be the prediction of imminent failure that is engendered by line contingency or grid disturbances. Therefore, a number of researchers have initiated investigations to generate techniques for predicting outages. However, extended blackouts can still occur due to the frailty of distribution power grids. Objective: This paper implements a proactive prediction model based on deep-belief networks to predict the imminent outages using previous historical blackouts, trigger alarms, and suggest solutions for blackouts. These actions can prevent outages, stop cascading failures and diminish the resulting economic losses. Methods: The proposed model is divided into three phases: A, B and C. The first phase (A) represents the initial segment that collects and extracts data and trains the deep belief network using the collected data. Phase B defines the Power outage threshold and determines whether the grid is in a normal state. Phase C involves detecting potential unsafe events, triggering alarms and proposing emergency action plans for restoration. Results: Different machine learning and deep learning algorithms are used in our experiments to validate our proposition, such as Random forest, Bayesian nets and others. Deep belief Networks can achieve 97.30% accuracy and 97.06% precision. Conclusion: The obtained findings demonstrate that the proposed model would be convenient for blackouts’ prediction and that the deep-belief network represents a powerful deep learning tool that can offer plausible results.

People’s attitudes, opinions, feelings and sentiments which are usually expressed in the written languages are studied by using a well known concept called the sentiment analysis. The emotions are expressed at various different levels like document, sentence and phrase level are studied by using the sentiment analysis approach. The sentiment analysis combined with the Deep learning methodologies achieves the greater classification in a larger dataset. The proposed approach and methods are Sentiment Analysis and deep belief networks, these are used to process the user reviews and to give rise to a possible classification for recommendations system for the user. The user assessment classification can be progressed by applying noise reduction or pre-processing to the system dataset. Further by the input nodes the system uses an exploration of user’s sentiments to build a feature vector. Finally, the data learning is achieved for the suggestions; by using deep belief network. The prototypical achieves superior precision and accuracy when compared with the LSTM and SVM algorithms.
