Abstract Objective: The aim of the present study was to predict osteoporosis on panoramic radiographs of women over 50 years of age through deep learning algorithms.Method: Panoramic radiographs of 744 female patients over 50 years of age were labeled as C1, C2, and C3 depending on mandibular cortical index (MCI). According to this index; C1: presence of a smooth and sharp mandibular cortex (normal); C2: resorption cavities at endosteal margin and 1 to 3-layer stratification (osteopenia); C3: completely porotic cortex (osteoporosis). The data of the present study were reviewed in different categories including C1-C2-C3, C1-C2, C1-C3 and C1-(C2+C3) as two-class and three-class prediction. The data were separated as 20% random test data; and the remaining data were used for training and validation with 5-fold cross-validation. AlexNET, GoogleNET, ResNET-50, SqueezeNET, and ShuffleNET deep learning models are trained through the transfer learning method. The results were evaluated by performance criteria including accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F1-score, AUC and training duration. Findings: The dataset C1-C2-C3 has an accuracy rate of 81.14% with AlexNET; the dataset C1-C2 has an accuracy rate of 88.94% with GoogleNET; the dataset C1-C3 has an accuracy rate of 98.56% with AlexNET; and the dataset C1-(C2+C3) has an accuracy rate of 92.79% with GoogleNET. Conclusion: The highest accuracy was obtained in differentiation of C3 and C1 where osseous structure characteristics change significantly. Since the C2 score represent the intermediate stage (osteopenia), structural characteristics of the bone present behaviors closer to C1 and C3 scores. Therefore, the data set including the C2 score provided relatively lower accuracy results.

Classification of hazelnuts is one of the values adding processes that increase the marketability and profitability of its production. While traditional classification methods are used commonly, machine learning and deep learning can be implemented to enhance the hazelnut classification processes. This paper presents the results of a comparative study of machine learning frameworks to classify hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) cultivars (‘Sivri’, ‘Kara’, ‘Tombul’) using DL4J and ensemble learning algorithms. For each cultivar, 50 samples were used for evaluations. Maximum length, width, compression strength, and weight of hazelnuts were measured using a caliper and a force transducer. Gradient boosting machine (Boosting), random forest (Bagging), and DL4J feedforward (Deep Learning) algorithms were applied in traditional machine learning algorithms. The data set was partitioned into a 10-fold-cross validation method. The classifier performance criteria of accuracy (%), error percentage (%), F-Measure, Cohen’s Kappa, recall, precision, true positive (TP), false positive (FP), true negative (TN), false negative (FN) values are provided in the results section. The results showed classification accuracies of 94% for Gradient Boosting, 100% for Random Forest, and 94% for DL4J Feedforward algorithms.

AbstractThis paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of data pre-processing and word embedding techniques in the context of Arabic document classification in the domain of health-related communication on social media. We evaluate 26 text pre-processings applied to Arabic tweets within the process of training a classifier to identify health-related tweets. For this task we use the (traditional) machine learning classifiers KNN, SVM, Multinomial NB and Logistic Regression. Furthermore, we report experimental results with the deep learning architectures BLSTM and CNN for the same text classification problem. Since word embeddings are more typically used as the input layer in deep networks, in the deep learning experiments we evaluate several state-of-the-art pre-trained word embeddings with the same text pre-processing applied. To achieve these goals, we use two data sets: one for both training and testing, and another for testing the generality of our models only. Our results point to the conclusion that only four out of the 26 pre-processings improve the classification accuracy significantly. For the first data set of Arabic tweets, we found that Mazajak CBOW pre-trained word embeddings as the input to a BLSTM deep network led to the most accurate classifier with F1 score of 89.7%. For the second data set, Mazajak Skip-Gram pre-trained word embeddings as the input to BLSTM led to the most accurate model with F1 score of 75.2% and accuracy of 90.7% compared to F1 score of 90.8% achieved by Mazajak CBOW for the same architecture but with lower accuracy of 70.89%. Our results also show that the performance of the best of the traditional classifier we trained is comparable to the deep learning methods on the first dataset, but significantly worse on the second dataset.

In the past decades, due to the low design cost and easy maintenance, text-based CAPTCHAs have been extensively used in constructing security mechanisms for user authentications. With the recent advances in machine/deep learning in recognizing CAPTCHA images, growing attack methods are presented to break text-based CAPTCHAs. These machine learning/deep learning-based attacks often rely on training models on massive volumes of training data. The poorly constructed CAPTCHA data also leads to low accuracy of attacks. To investigate this issue, we propose a simple, generic, and effective preprocessing approach to filter and enhance the original CAPTCHA data set so as to improve the accuracy of the previous attack methods. In particular, the proposed preprocessing approach consists of a data selector and a data augmentor. The data selector can automatically filter out a training data set with training significance. Meanwhile, the data augmentor uses four different image noises to generate different CAPTCHA images. The well-constructed CAPTCHA data set can better train deep learning models to further improve the accuracy rate. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the accuracy rates of five commonly used attack methods after combining our preprocessing approach are 2.62% to 8.31% higher than those without preprocessing approach. Moreover, we also discuss potential research directions for future work.

AbstractEvaluation of car damages from an accident is one of the most important processes in the car insurance business. Currently, it still needs a manual examination of every basic part. It is expected that a smart device will be able to do this evaluation more efficiently in the future. In this study, we evaluated and compared five deep learning algorithms for semantic segmentation of car parts. The baseline reference algorithm was Mask R-CNN, and the other algorithms were HTC, CBNet, PANet, and GCNet. Runs of instance segmentation were conducted with those five algorithms. HTC with ResNet-50 was the best algorithm for instance segmentation on various kinds of cars such as sedans, trucks, and SUVs. It achieved a mean average precision at 55.2 on our original data set, that assigned different labels to the left and right sides and 59.1 when a single label was assigned to both sides. In addition, the models from every algorithm were tested for robustness, by running them on images of parts, in a real environment with various weather conditions, including snow, frost, fog and various lighting conditions. GCNet was the most robust; it achieved a mean performance under corruption, mPC = 35.2, and a relative degradation of performance on corrupted data, compared to clean data (rPC), of 64.4%, when left and right sides were assigned different labels, and mPC = 38.1 and rPC = $$69.6\%$$ 69.6 % when left- and right-side parts were considered the same part. The findings from this study may directly benefit developers of automated car damage evaluation system in their quest for the best design.

It is unknown if the ability of Portuguese in the identification of NimStim data set, which was created in America to provide facial expressions that could be recognized by untrained people, is (or not) similar to the Americans. To test this hypothesis the performance of Portuguese in the recognition of Happiness, Surprise, Sadness, Fear, Disgust and Anger NimStim facial expressions was compared with the Americans, but no significant differences were found. In both populations the easiest emotion to identify was Happiness while Fear was the most difficult one. However, with exception for Surprise, Portuguese tend to show a lower accuracy rate for all the emotions studied. Results highlighted some cultural differences.

Network data is composed of nodes and edges. Successful application of machine learning/deep learning algorithms on network data to make node classification and link prediction have been shown in the area of social networks through which highly customized suggestions are offered to social<br>network users. Similarly one can attempt the use of machine learning/deep learning algorithms on biological network data to generate predictions of scientific usefulness. In the presented work, compound-drug target interaction network data set from bindingDB has been used to train deep learning neural network and a multi class classification has been implemented to classify PubChem compound queried by the user into class labels of PBD IDs. This way target interaction prediction for PubChem compounds is carried out using deep learning. The user is required to input the PubChem Compound ID (CID) of the compound the user wishes to gain information about its predicted biological activity and the tool outputs the RCSB PDB IDs of the predicted drug target interaction for the input CID. Further the tool also optimizes the compound of interest of the user toward drug likeness properties through a deep learning based structure optimization with a deep learning based<br>drug likeness optimization protocol. The tool also incorporates a feature to perform automated In Silico modelling for the compounds and the predicted drug targets to uncover their protein-ligand interaction profiles.

AbstractDeep learning algorithms have tremendous potential utility in the classification of biomedical images. For example, images acquired with retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) can be used to accurately classify patients with adult macular degeneration (AMD), and distinguish them from healthy control patients. However, previous research has suggested that large amounts of data are required in order to train deep learning algorithms, because of the large number of parameters that need to be fit. Here, we show that a moderate amount of data (data from approximately 1,800 patients) may be enough to reach close-to-maximal performance in the classification of AMD patients from OCT images. These results suggest that deep learning algorithms can be trained on moderate amounts of data, provided that images are relatively homogenous, and the effective number of parameters is sufficiently small. Furthermore, we demonstrate that in this application, cross-validation with a separate test set that is not used in any part of the training does not differ substantially from cross-validation with a validation data-set used to determine the optimal stopping point for training.

The heart sound signal is one of the signals that reflect the health of the heart. Research on the heart sound signal contributes to the early diagnosis and prevention of cardiovascular diseases. As a commonly used deep learning network, convolutional neural network (CNN) has been widely used in images. In this paper, the method of analyzing heart sound through using CNN has been studied. Firstly, the original data set was preprocessed, and then the heart sounds were segmented on U-net, based on the deep CNN. Finally, the classification of heart sounds was completed through CNN. The data from 2016 PhysioNet/CinC Challenge was utilized for algorithm validation, and the following results were obtained. When the heart sound segmented, the overall accuracy rate was 0.991, the accuracy of the first heart sound was 0.991, the accuracy of the systolic period was 0.996, the accuracy of the second heart sound was 0.996, and the accuracy of the diastolic period was 0.997, and the average accuracy rate was 0.995; While in classification, the accuracy was 0.964, the sensitivity was 0.781, and the specificity was 0.873. These results show that deep learning based on CNN shows good performance in the segmentation and classification of the heart sound signal.
