Natural Language Processing Task

Sentiment analysis of texts posted on Twitter is a natural language processing task whose importance has grown along with the increase in the number of users of the platform and the interest of organizations on the opinions of their employees, customers and users.Although Brazil is the sixth country in the world with most active users of Tweeter and Portuguese is the seventh most spoken language in the world, with 221 million speakers (200 million of them living in Brazil), the number of articles that discuss sentiment analysis approaches for Brazilian Portuguese is a small fraction of those that focus on the English language. On the other hand, few works use deep learning for this task when compared with other machine learning and lexical based methods. In this context, the work described in this article addresses the problem using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The paper presents the results of an experimental evaluation that shows that a CNN with a relatively simple architecture can perform much better than a previous approach that uses ensembles of other machine learning classifiers combined with text preprocessing heuristics

Steganalysis method is used to detect the presence or absence of steganography files or can be referred to anti-steganography. Steganalysis can be used for positive purposes, which is to know the weaknesses of a steganography method, so that improvements can be made. One category of steganalysis is blind steganalysis, which is a way to detect secret files without knowing what steganography method is used. Blind steganalysis is difficult to implement, but then machine learning techniques emerged that could be used to create a detection model using experimental data, one of which is Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). A study proposes that the CNN method can detect steganography files using the latest method with a low error probability value compared to other methods, CNN Yedroudj-net. As one of the steganalysis methods with the latest machine learning steganalysis techniques, an experiment is needed to find out whether Yedroudj-net can be a steganalysis for the output of many tools commonly used for steganography applications. Knowing the performance of CNN Yedroudj-net on several steganography tools is very important, to measure the level of ability in terms of steganalysis of some of these tools. Especially so far, machine learning performance is still doubtful in blind steganalysis. Plus some previous research only focused on certain methods to prove the performance of the proposed technique, including Yedroudj-net. This study will use five tools that are Hide In Picture (HIP), OpenStego, SilentEye, Steg and S-Tools, which are not known exactly what steganography methods are used on the tools. Yedroudj-net method will be implemented in the steganography file from the output of the five tools. Then a comparison with the popular steganalysis tool is used, StegSpy. The results show that Yedroudj-net is quite capable of detecting the presence of steganography files, slightly better than StegSpy.

Malaria is a disease activated by a type of microscopic parasite transmitted from infected female mosquito bites to humans. Malaria is a fatal disease that is endemic in many regions of the world. Quick diagnosis of this disease will be very valuable for patients, as traditional methods require tedious work for its detection. Recently, some automated methods have been proposed that exploit hand-crafted feature extraction techniques however, their accuracies are not reliable. Deep learning approaches modernize the world with their superior performance. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are vastly scalable for image classification tasks that extract features through hidden layers of the model without any handcrafting. The detection of malaria-infected red blood cells from segmented microscopic blood images using convolutional neural networks can assist in quick diagnosis, and this will be useful for regions with fewer healthcare experts. The contributions of this paper are two-fold. First, we evaluate the performance of different existing deep learning models for efficient malaria detection. Second, we propose a customized CNN model that outperforms all observed deep learning models. It exploits the bilateral filtering and image augmentation techniques for highlighting features of red blood cells before training the model. Due to image augmentation techniques, the customized CNN model is generalized and avoids over-fitting. All experimental evaluations are performed on the benchmark NIH Malaria Dataset, and the results reveal that the proposed algorithm is 96.82% accurate in detecting malaria from the microscopic blood smears.

Relevant Issue

Deep neural networks are hegemonic approaches to many machine learning areas, including natural language processing (NLP). Thanks to the availability of large corpora collections and the capability of deep architectures to shape internal language mechanisms in self-supervised learning processes (also known as “pre-training”), versatile and performing models are released continuously for every new network design. These networks, somehow, learn a probability distribution of words and relations across the training collection used, inheriting the potential flaws, inconsistencies and biases contained in such a collection. As pre-trained models have been found to be very useful approaches to transfer learning, dealing with bias has become a relevant issue in this new scenario. We introduce bias in a formal way and explore how it has been treated in several networks, in terms of detection and correction. In addition, available resources are identified and a strategy to deal with bias in deep NLP is proposed.

Depthwise convolutions are widely used in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) targeting mobile and embedded systems. Depthwise convolution layers reduce the computation loads and the number of parameters compared to the conventional convolution layers. Many deep neural network (DNN) accelerators adopt an architecture that exploits the high data-reuse factor of DNN computations, such as a systolic array. However, depthwise convolutions have low data-reuse factor and under-utilize the processing elements (PEs) in systolic arrays. In this paper, we present a DNN accelerator design called RiSA, which provides a novel mechanism that boosts the PE utilization for depthwise convolutions on a systolic array with minimal overheads. In addition, the PEs in systolic arrays can be efficiently used only if the data items ( tensors ) are arranged in the desired layout. Typical DNN accelerators provide various types of PE interconnects or additional modules to flexibly rearrange the data items and manage data movements during DNN computations. RiSA provides a lightweight set of tensor management tasks within the PE array itself that eliminates the need for an additional module for tensor reshaping tasks. Using this embedded tensor reshaping, RiSA supports various DNN models, including convolutional neural networks and natural language processing models while maintaining a high area efficiency. Compared to Eyeriss v2, RiSA improves the area and energy efficiency for MobileNet-V1 inference by 1.91× and 1.31×, respectively.

User Data

Sentiment or emotion behind a tweet from Twitter or a post from Facebook can help us answer what opinions or feedback a person has. With the advent of growing user-generated blogs, posts and reviews across various social media and online retails, calls for an understanding of these afore mentioned user data acts as a catalyst in building Recommender systems and drive business plans. User reviews on online retail stores influence buying behavior of customers and thus complements the ever-growing need of sentiment analysis. Machine Learning helps us to read between the lines of tweets by proving us with various algorithms like Naïve Bayes, SVM, etc. Sentiment Analysis uses Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to extract, classify and analyze tweets for sentiments (emotions). There are various packages and frameworks in R and Python that aid in Sentiment Analysis or Text Mining in general.
