Histopathology is the study of tissue structure under the microscope to determine if the cells are normal or abnormal. Histopathology is a very important exam that is used to determine the patients’ treatment plan. The classification of histopathology images is very difficult to even an experienced pathologist, and a second opinion is often needed. Convolutional neural network (CNN), a particular type of deep learning architecture, obtained outstanding results in computer vision tasks like image classification. In this paper, we propose a novel CNN architecture to classify histopathology images. The proposed model consists of 15 convolution layers and two fully connected layers. A comparison between different activation functions was performed to detect the most efficient one, taking into account two different optimizers. To train and evaluate the proposed model, the publicly available PatchCamelyon dataset was used. The dataset consists of 220,000 annotated images for training and 57,000 unannotated images for testing. The proposed model achieved higher performance compared to the state-of-the-art architectures with an AUC of 95.46%.

SUMMARY In this paper, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) were used to distinguish between tectonic and non-tectonic seismicity. The proposed CNNs consisted of seven convolutional layers with small kernels and one fully connected layer, which only relied on the acoustic waveform without extracting features manually. For a single station, the accuracy of the model was 0.90, and the event accuracy could reach 0.93. The proposed model was tested using data from January 2019 to August 2019 in China. The event accuracy could reach 0.92, showing that the proposed model could distinguish between tectonic and non-tectonic seismicity.

This paper provides an analysis of state-of-the-art activation functions with respect to supervised classification of deep neural network. These activation functions comprise of Rectified Linear Units (ReLU), Exponential Linear Unit (ELU), Scaled Exponential Linear Unit (SELU), Gaussian Error Linear Unit (GELU), and the Inverse Square Root Linear Unit (ISRLU). To evaluate, experiments over two deep learning network architectures integrating these activation functions are conducted. The first model, basing on Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), is evaluated with MNIST dataset to perform these activation functions.Meanwhile, the second model, likely VGGish-based architecture, is applied for Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC) Task 1A in DCASE 2018 challenge, thus evaluate whether these activation functions work well in different datasets as well as different network architectures.

In this paper, the structure of a separable convolutional neural network that consists of an embedding layer, separable convolutional layers, convolutional layer and global average pooling is represented for binary and multiclass text classifications. The advantage of the proposed structure is the absence of multiple fully connected layers, which is used to increase the classification accuracy but raises the computational cost. The combination of low-cost separable convolutional layers and a convolutional layer is proposed to gain high accuracy and, simultaneously, to reduce the complexity of neural classifiers. Advantages are demonstrated at binary and multiclass classifications of written texts by means of the proposed networks under the sigmoid and Softmax activation functions in convolutional layer. At binary and multiclass classifications, the accuracy obtained by separable convolutional neural networks is higher in comparison with some investigated types of recurrent neural networks and fully connected networks.

In medical science, brain tumor is the most common and aggressive disease and is known to be risk factors that have been confirmed by research. A brain tumor is the anomalous development of cell inside the brain. One conventional strategy to separate brain tumors is by reviewing the MRI pictures of the patient's mind. In this paper, we have designed a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to perceive whether the image contains tumor or not. We have designed 5 different CNN and examined each design on the basis of convolution layers, max-pooling, and flattening layers and activation functions. In each design we have made some changes on layers i.e. using different pooling layers in design 2 and 4, using different activation functions in design 2 and 3, and adding more Fully Connected layers in design 5. We examine their results and compare it with other designs. After comparing their results we find a best design out of 5 based on their accuracy. Utilizing our Convolutional neural network, we could accomplish a training accuracy and validation accuracy of design 3 at 100 epochs is 99.99% and 92.34%, best case scenario.

<abstract><p>We consider the problem of the detection of brain hemorrhages from three-dimensional (3D) electrical impedance tomography (EIT) measurements. This is a condition requiring urgent treatment for which EIT might provide a portable and quick diagnosis. We employ two neural network architectures - a fully connected and a convolutional one - for the classification of hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes. The networks are trained on a dataset with $ 40\, 000 $ samples of synthetic electrode measurements generated with the complete electrode model on realistic heads with a 3-layer structure. We consider changes in head anatomy and layers, electrode position, measurement noise and conductivity values. We then test the networks on several datasets of unseen EIT data, with more complex stroke modeling (different shapes and volumes), higher levels of noise and different amounts of electrode misplacement. On most test datasets we achieve $ \geq 90\% $ average accuracy with fully connected neural networks, while the convolutional ones display an average accuracy $ \geq 80\% $. Despite the use of simple neural network architectures, the results obtained are very promising and motivate the applications of EIT-based classification methods on real phantoms and ultimately on human patients.</p></abstract>

This article presents a neural network model that permits to build a conceptual hierarchy to approximate functions over a given interval. Bio-inspired axo-axonic connections are used. In these connections the signal weight between two neurons is computed by the output of other neuron. Such arquitecture can generate polynomial expressions with lineal activation functions. This network can approximate any pattern set with a polynomial equation. This neural system classifies an input pattern as an element belonging to a category that the system has, until an exhaustive classification is obtained. The proposed model is not a hierarchy of neural networks, it establishes relationships among all the different neural networks in order to propagate the activation. Each neural network is in charge of the input pattern recognition to any prototyped category, and also in charge of transmitting the activation to other neural networks to be able to continue with the approximation.

AbstractThe paper presents memristor crossbar architectures for implementing layers in deep neural networks, including the fully connected layer, the convolutional layer, and the pooling layer. The crossbars achieve positive and negative weight values and approximately realize various nonlinear activation functions. Then the layers constructed by the crossbars are adopted to build the memristor-based multi-layer neural network (MMNN) and the memristor-based convolutional neural network (MCNN). Two kinds of in-situ weight update schemes, which are the fixed-voltage update and the approximately linear update, respectively, are used to train the networks. Consider variations resulted from the inherent characteristics of memristors and the errors of programming voltages, the robustness of MMNN and MCNN to these variations is analyzed. The simulation results on standard datasets show that deep neural networks (DNNs) built by the memristor crossbars work satisfactorily in pattern recognition tasks and have certain robustness to memristor variations.

Early diagnosis of pathological brains leads to early interventions in brain diseases, which may help control the illness conditions, prolong the life of patients, and even cure them. Therefore, the classification of brain diseases is a challenging but helpful task. However, it is hard to collect brain images, and the superabundance of images is also a great challenge for computing resources. This study proposes a new approach named TReC: Transferred Residual Networks (ResNet)-Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM), a specific model for small-scale samples, to detect brain diseases based on MRI. At first, the ResNet model, which is pre-trained on the ImageNet dataset, serves as initialization. Subsequently, a simple attention mechanism named CBAM is introduced and added into every ResNet residual block. At the same time, the fully connected (FC) layers of the ResNet are replaced with new FC layers, which meet the goal of classification. Finally, all the parameters of our model, such as the ResNet, the CBAM, and new FC layers, are retrained. The effectiveness of the proposed model is evaluated on brain magnetic resonance (MR) datasets for multi-class and two-class tasks. Compared with other state-of-the-art models, our model reaches the best performance for two-class and multi-class tasks on brain diseases.
