The growth of popularity of online platforms which allow users to communicate with each other, share opinions about various events, and leave comments boosted the development of natural language processing algorithms. Tens of millions of messages per day are published by users of a particular social network need to be analyzed in real time for moderation in order to prevent the spread of various illegal or offensive information, threats and other types of toxic comments. Of course, such a large amount of information can be processed quite quickly only automatically. that is why there is a need to and a way to teach computers to “understand” a text written by humans. It is a non-trivial task even if the word “understand” here means only “to classify”. the rapid evolution of machine learning technologies has led to ubiquitous implementation of new algorithms. A lot of tasks, which for many years were considered almost impossible to solve, are now quite successfully solved using deep learning technologies. this article considers algorithms built using deep learning technologies and neural networks which can successfully solve the problem of detection and classification of toxic comments. In addition, the article presents the results of the developed algorithms, as well as the results of the ensemble of all considered algorithms on a large training set collected and tagged by Google and Jigsaw.

Pattern classification is related with the automatic finding of regularities in dataset through the utilization of various learning techniques. Thus, the classification of the objects into a set of categories or classes is provided. This study is undertaken to evaluate deep learning methodologies to the classification of stock patterns. In order to classify patterns that are obtained from stock charts, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and long-short term memory networks (LSTMs) are employed. To demonstrate the efficiency of proposed model in categorizing patterns, hand-crafted image dataset is constructed from stock charts in Istanbul Stock Exchange and NASDAQ Stock Exchange. Experimental results show that the usage of convolutional neural networks exhibits superior classification success in recognizing patterns compared to the other deep learning methodologies.

Deep Learning is developing interesting tools which are of great interest for inverse imaging applications. In this work, we consider a medical imaging reconstruction task from subsampled measurements, which is an active research field where Convolutional Neural Networks have already revealed their great potential. However, the commonly used architectures are very deep and, hence, prone to overfitting and unfeasible for clinical usages. Inspired by the ideas of the green-AI literature, we here propose a shallow neural network to perform an efficient Learned Post-Processing on images roughly reconstructed by the filtered backprojection algorithm. The results obtained on images from the training set and on unseen images, using both the non-expensive network and the widely used very deep ResUNet show that the proposed network computes images of comparable or higher quality in about one fourth of time.
