Dementia is the most frequent degenerative sickness in adults where early diagnosis can forestall or prolong progression. In this study, we used a deep learning techniques for classification of dementia. Data were collected from OASIS database of all the patients receiving dementia screening. The data included the patient’s sex, age, education, social economic status, Mini-Mental State Examination, Clinical Dementia Rating, Atlas Scaling Factor, Estimated Total Intracranial Volume and Normalized Whole Brain Volume. The performance of every algorithm is juxtaposed with Generalized Regression Neural Network (GRNN), Radial Basis Neural Network (RBNN), Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network (MPNN) and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) using Sensitivity, Specificity, Detection Rate. The results show that with 100% efficiency, GRNN, RBNN and LSTM tend to be the best in the classification of dementia. The use of deep learning such as LSTM for early diagnosis of dementia can help improve the process of dementia diagnosis.

Gene promoters are the key DNA regulatory elements positioned around the transcription start sites and are responsible for regulating gene transcription process. Various alignment-based, signal-based and content-based approaches are reported for the prediction of promoters. However, since all promoter sequences do not show explicit features, the prediction performance of these techniques is poor. Therefore, many machine learning and deep learning models have been proposed for promoter prediction. In this work, we studied methods for vector encoding and promoter classification using genome sequences of three distinct higher eukaryotes viz. yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), A. thaliana (plant) and human (Homo sapiens). We compared one-hot vector encoding method with frequency-based tokenization (FBT) for data pre-processing on 1-D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model. We found that FBT gives a shorter input dimension reducing the training time without affecting the sensitivity and specificity of classification. We employed the deep learning techniques, mainly CNN and recurrent neural network with Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) and random forest (RF) classifier for promoter classification at k-mer sizes of 2, 4 and 8. We found CNN to be superior in classification of promoters from non-promoter sequences (binary classification) as well as species-specific classification of promoter sequences (multiclass classification). In summary, the contribution of this work lies in the use of synthetic shuffled negative dataset and frequency-based tokenization for pre-processing. This study provides a comprehensive and generic framework for classification tasks in genomic applications and can be extended to various classification problems.

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.

Social media provides opportunities for individuals to anonymously communicate and express hateful feelings and opinions at the comfort of their rooms. This anonymity has become a shield for many individuals or groups who use social media to express deep hatred for other individuals or groups, tribes or race, religion, gender, as well as belief systems. In this study, a comparative analysis is performed using Long Short-Term Memory and Convolutional Neural Network deep learning techniques for Hate Speech classification. This analysis demonstrates that the Long Short-Term Memory classifier achieved an accuracy of 92.47%, while the Convolutional Neural Network classifier achieved an accuracy of 92.74%. These results showed that deep learning techniques can effectively classify hate speech from normal speech.

Early diagnosis of the coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19) is essential for controlling this pandemic. COVID-19 has been spreading rapidly all over the world. There is no vaccine available for this virus yet. Fast and accurate COVID-19 screening is possible using computed tomography (CT) scan images. The deep learning techniques used in the proposed method was based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). Our manuscript focuses on differentiating the CT scan images of COVID-19 and non-COVID 19 CT using different deep learning techniques. A self developed model named CTnet-10 was designed for the COVID-19 diagnosis, having an accuracy of 82.1 %. Also, other models that we tested are DenseNet-169, VGG-16, ResNet-50, InceptionV3, and VGG-19. The VGG-19 proved to be superior with an accuracy of 94.52 % as compared to all other deep learning models. Automated diagnosis of COVID-19 from the CT scan pictures can be used by the doctors as a quick and efficient method for COVID-19 screening.

Although there have been various researches in the detection of different figurative language, there is no single work in the automatic classification of euphemisms. Our primary work is to present a system for the automatic classification of euphemistic phrases in a document. In this research, a large dataset consisting of 100,000 sentences is collected from different resources for identifying euphemism or non-euphemism utterances. In this work, several approaches are focused to improve the euphemism classification: 1. A Combination of lexical n-gram features 2.Three Feature-weighting schemes 3.Deep learning classification algorithms. In this paper, four machine learning (J48, Random Forest, Multinomial Naïve Bayes, and SVM) and three deep learning algorithms (Multilayer Perceptron, Convolutional Neural Network, and Long Short-Term Memory) are investigated with various combinations of features and feature weighting schemes to classify the sentences. According to our experiments, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) achieves precision 95.43%, recall 95.06%, F-Score 95.25%, accuracy 95.26%, and Kappa 0.905 by using a combination of unigram and bigram features with TF-IDF feature weighting scheme in the classification of euphemism. These results of experiments show CNN with a strong combination of unigram and bigram features set with TF-IDF feature weighting scheme outperforms another six classification algorithms in detecting the euphemisms in our dataset.

Abstract Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) utilise deep learning techniques to identify intrusions with maximum accuracy and reduce false alarm rates. The feature extraction is also automated in these techniques. In this paper, an ensemble of different Deep Neural Network (DNN) models like MultiLayer Perceptron (MLP), BackPropagation Network (BPN) and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) are stacked to build a robust anomaly detection model. The performance of the ensemble model is analysed on different datasets, namely UNSW-NB15 and a campus generated dataset named VIT_SPARC20. Other types of traffic, namely unencrypted normal traffic, normal encrypted traffic, encrypted and unencrypted malicious traffic, are captured in the VIT_SPARC20 dataset. Encrypted normal and malicious traffic of VIT_SPARC20 is categorised by the deep learning models without decrypting its contents, thus preserving the confidentiality and integrity of the data transmitted. XGBoost integrates the results of each deep learning model to achieve higher accuracy. From experimental analysis, it is inferred that UNSW_ NB results in a maximal accuracy of 99.5%. The performance of VIT_SPARC20 in terms of accuracy, precision and recall are 99.4%. 98% and 97%, respectively.

Recently, Electroencephalography (EEG) motor imagery (MI) signals have received increasing attention because it became possible to use these signals to encode a person’s intention to perform an action. Researchers have used MI signals to help people with partial or total paralysis, control devices such as exoskeletons, wheelchairs, prostheses, and even independent driving. Therefore, classifying the motor imagery tasks of these signals is important for a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) system. Classifying the MI tasks from EEG signals is difficult to offer a good decoder due to the dynamic nature of the signal, its low signal-to-noise ratio, complexity, and dependence on the sensor positions. In this paper, we investigate five multilayer methods for classifying MI tasks: proposed methods based on Artificial Neural Network, Convolutional Neural Network 1 (CNN1), CNN2, CNN1 with CNN2 merged, and the modified CNN1 with CNN2 merged. These proposed methods use different spatial and temporal characteristics extracted from raw EEG data. We demonstrate that our proposed CNN1-based method outperforms state-of-the-art machine/deep learning techniques for EEG classification by an accuracy value of 68.77% and use spatial and frequency characteristics on the BCI Competition IV-2a dataset, which includes nine subjects performing four MI tasks (left/right hand, feet, and tongue). The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of this proposed method for the classification of MI-EEG signals and can be applied successfully to BCI systems where the amount of data is large due to daily recording.
