High-resolution functional imaging is providing increasingly rich measurements of brain activity in animals and humans. A major challenge is to leverage such data to gain insight into the brain's computational mechanisms. The first step is to define candidate brain-computational models (BCMs) that can perform the behavioural task in question. We would then like to infer which of the candidate BCMs best accounts for measured brain-activity data. Here we describe a method that complements each BCM by a measurement model (MM), which simulates the way the brain-activity measurements reflect neuronal activity (e.g. local averaging in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) voxels or sparse sampling in array recordings). The resulting generative model (BCM-MM) produces simulated measurements. To avoid having to fit the MM to predict each individual measurement channel of the brain-activity data, we compare the measured and predicted data at the level of summary statistics. We describe a novel particular implementation of this approach, called probabilistic representational similarity analysis (pRSA) with MMs, which uses representational dissimilarity matrices (RDMs) as the summary statistics. We validate this method by simulations of fMRI measurements (locally averaging voxels) based on a deep convolutional neural network for visual object recognition. Results indicate that the way the measurements sample the activity patterns strongly affects the apparent representational dissimilarities. However, modelling of the measurement process can account for these effects, and different BCMs remain distinguishable even under substantial noise. The pRSA method enables us to perform Bayesian inference on the set of BCMs and to recognize the data-generating model in each case. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Interpreting BOLD: a dialogue between cognitive and cellular neuroscience’.


Recently, DDoS attacks is the most significant threat in network security. Both industry and academia are currently debating how to detect and protect against DDoS attacks. Many studies are provided to detect these types of attacks. Deep learning techniques are the most suitable and efficient algorithm for categorizing normal and attack data. Hence, a deep neural network approach is proposed in this study to mitigate DDoS attacks effectively. We used a deep learning neural network to identify and classify traffic as benign or one of four different DDoS attacks. We will concentrate on four different DDoS types: Slowloris, Slowhttptest, DDoS Hulk, and GoldenEye. The rest of the paper is organized as follow: Firstly, we introduce the work, Section 2 defines the related works, Section 3 presents the problem statement, Section 4 describes the proposed methodology, Section 5 illustrate the results of the proposed methodology and shows how the proposed methodology outperforms state-of-the-art work and finally Section VI concludes the paper.

Deep learning approaches have attracted a lot of attention in the automatic detection of Covid-19 and transfer learning is the most common approach. However, majority of the pre-trained models are trained on color images, which can cause inefficiencies when fine-tuning the models on Covid-19 images which are often grayscale. To address this issue, we propose a deep learning architecture called CovidNet which requires a relatively smaller number of parameters. CovidNet accepts grayscale images as inputs and is suitable for training with limited training dataset. Experimental results show that CovidNet outperforms other state-of-the-art deep learning models for Covid-19 detection.

Abstract This paper provides the state of the art of data science in economics. Through a novel taxonomy of applications and methods advances in data science are investigated. The data science advances are investigated in three individual classes of deep learning models, ensemble models, and hybrid models. Application domains include stock market, marketing, E-commerce, corporate banking, and cryptocurrency. Prisma method, a systematic literature review methodology is used to ensure the quality of the survey. The findings revealed that the trends are on advancement of hybrid models as more than 51% of the reviewed articles applied hybrid model. On the other hand, it is found that based on the RMSE accuracy metric, hybrid models had higher prediction accuracy than other algorithms. While it is expected the trends go toward the advancements of deep learning models.

Deep Learning (DL) algorithms enabled computational models consist of multiple processing layers that represent data with multiple levels of abstraction. In recent years, usage of deep learning is rapidly proliferating in almost every domain, especially in medical image processing, medical image analysis, and bioinformatics. Consequently, deep learning has dramatically changed and improved the means of recognition, prediction, and diagnosis effectively in numerous areas of healthcare such as pathology, brain tumor, lung cancer, abdomen, cardiac, and retina. Considering the wide range of applications of deep learning, the objective of this article is to review major deep learning concepts pertinent to brain tumor analysis (e.g., segmentation, classification, prediction, evaluation.). A review conducted by summarizing a large number of scientific contributions to the field (i.e., deep learning in brain tumor analysis) is presented in this study. A coherent taxonomy of research landscape from the literature has also been mapped, and the major aspects of this emerging field have been discussed and analyzed. A critical discussion section to show the limitations of deep learning techniques has been included at the end to elaborate open research challenges and directions for future work in this emergent area.

 Computer vision (CV) refers to the study of the computer simulation of human visual science. Major task of CV is to collect images (or video) so that they could be used for analysis, gathering information, and making decisions or judgements. CV has greatly progressed and developed in the past few decades. In recent years, deep learning (DL) approaches have won several contests in pattern recognition and machine learning. (DL) dramatically improved the state-of-the-art in visual object recognition, object detection, handwritten recognition and many other domains. Handwritten recognition technique is one of this tasks that targeted to extract the text from documents or another images type. In contrast to the English domain, there are a limited works on the Arabic language that achieved satisfactory results, Due to the Arabic language cursive nature that induces many technical difficulties. This paper highlighted the pre-processing and binarization methods that have been used in the literature along with proposed numerous directions for developing. We review the various current deep learning approaches and tools used for Arabic handwritten recognition (AHWR), identified challenges along this line of this research, and gives several recommendations including a framework based (DL) that is particularly applicable for dealing with cursive nature languages.

Humans and animals have a “number sense,” an innate capability to intuitively assess the number of visual items in a set, its numerosity. This capability implies that mechanisms to extract numerosity indwell the brain’s visual system, which is primarily concerned with visual object recognition. Here, we show that network units tuned to abstract numerosity, and therefore reminiscent of real number neurons, spontaneously emerge in a biologically inspired deep neural network that was merely trained on visual object recognition. These numerosity-tuned units underlay the network’s number discrimination performance that showed all the characteristics of human and animal number discriminations as predicted by the Weber-Fechner law. These findings explain the spontaneous emergence of the number sense based on mechanisms inherent to the visual system.

The brain processes involved in visual object recognition are described. Evidence is presented that what is computed are sparse distributed representations of objects that are invariant with respect to transforms including position, size, and even view in the ventral stream towards the inferior temporal visual cortex. Then biologically plausible unsupervised learning mechanisms that can perform this computation are described that use a synaptic modification rule what utilises a memory trace. These are compared with deep learning and other machine learning approaches that require supervision.
