scholarly journals Forensic Suicidal Inquiry of Depressed Individuals using LSTM and Convolutional Neural Networks

Social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Tumblretc, are vastly popular among the general population. People post updates, tweets etc., and almost 75% of the times, these posts are a combination of emotions. The idea is to analyze suicidal-depression tendencies in adults with traumatizing experiences or socio-economic difficulties. This makes the overall analysis of sentiments especially extremely complex, which we aim to resolve here in this project by breaking down all the sentences into individual words, and along with emoticons and hashtags, converting each one of them into tokens, and then applying deep learning algorithms on the same, to accurately determine the sentiments of given messages. The objective of the project undertaken is to determine the suicidal- sentiment of various depressed individuals, and how likely is it that they are inclined to commit suicide on the basis of their tweets.

Parkinson's disease is a common neurodegenerative neurological disorder, which affects the patient's quality of life, has significant social and economic effects, and is difficult to diagnose early due to the gradual appearance of symptoms. Examining the discussion of Parkinson’s disease in social media platforms such as Twitter provides a platform where patients communicate each other in both diagnosis and treatment stage of the Parkinson’s disease. The purpose of this work is to evaluate and compare the sentiment analysis of people about Parkinson's disease by using deep learning and word embedding models. To the best of our knowledge, this is the very first study to analyze Parkinson's disease from social media by using word embedding models and deep learning algorithms. In this study, Word2Vec, GloVe, and FastText are employed as word embedding models for the purpose of enriching tweets in terms of semantic, context, and syntax. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and Long Short-Term Memory Networks (LSTMs) are implemented for the classification task. This study demonstrates the efficiency of using word embedding models and deep learning algorithms to understand the needs of patients’ and provide a valuable contribution to the treatment process by analyzing sentiments of them with 93.63% accuracy performance.

This work presents quantitative prediction of severity of the disease caused by Phytophthora infestans in potato crops using machine learning algorithms such as multilayer perceptron, deep learning convolutional neural networks, support vector regression, and random forests. The machine learning algorithms are trained using datasets extracted from multispectral data captured at the canopy level with an unmanned aerial vehicle, carrying an inexpensive digital camera. The results indicate that deep learning convolutional neural networks, random forests and multilayer perceptron using band differences can predict the level of Phytophthora infestans affectation on potato crops with acceptable accuracy.

Studies carried out by researchers show that data growth can be exploited in such a way that the use of deep learning algorithms allow predictions with a high level of precision based on the data, which is why the latest studies are focused on the use of convolutional neural networks as the optimal algorithm for image classification. The present research work has focused on making the diagnosis of a disease that affects the cornea called keratoconus through the use of deep learning algorithms to detect patterns that will later be used to carry out preventive detections. The algorithm used to perform the classifications has been convolutional neural networks as well as image preprocessing to remove noise that can limit neural network learning, resulting in more than 1900 classified images out of a total of >2000 images distributed between normal eyes and those with keratoconus, which is equivalent to 92%.

Micro blogging websites are nothing but social media website to which user makes quick and frequent posts. Twitter is one of the well-known micro blog sites which offer the space for person which can read and put up messages that are 148 characters in duration. Twitter messages also are referred to as Tweets. And will use these tweets as raw facts. Then use a way that automatically extracts tweets into advantageous, bad or neutral sentiments. By the usage of the sentiment evaluation the consumer can recognize the feedback about the product or services before make a purchase. The organization can use sentiment evaluation to know the opinion of clients about their products, so can examine customer pleasure and in line with that they could improve their product. Now-a-days social networking sites are at the growth, so massive amount of data is generated. Millions of human beings are sharing their views each day on micro blogging sites, since it includes short and simple expressions. In this thesis, able to discuss approximately a paradigm to extract the sentiment from a famous micro running a blog carrier, Twitter, wherein customers submit their opinions for the whole thing. And can use the deep mastering algorithm to categories the twitters which incorporates Convolutional Neural Networks. The experimental end result is presented to demonstrate the use and effectiveness of the proposed system.


Landslides can easily be tragic to human life and property. Increase in the rate of human settlement in the mountains has resulted in safety concerns. Landslides have caused economic loss between 1-2% of the GDP in many developing countries. In this study, we discuss a deep learning approach to detect landslides. Convolutional Neural Networks are used for feature extraction for our proposed model. As there was no source of an exact and precise data set for feature extraction, therefore, a new data set was built for testing the model. We have tested and compared this work with our proposed model and with other machine-learning algorithms such as Logistic Regression, Random Forest, AdaBoost, K-Nearest Neighbors and Support Vector Machine. Our proposed deep learning model produces a classification accuracy of 96.90% outperforming the classical machine-learning algorithms.

In this study, a deep learning algorithm based on the you-only-look-once (YOLO) approach is proposed for the quality inspection of printed circuit boards (PCBs). The high accuracy and efficiency of deep learning algorithms has resulted in their increased adoption in every field. Similarly, accurate detection of defects in PCBs by using deep learning algorithms, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), has garnered considerable attention. In the proposed method, highly skilled quality inspection engineers first use an interface to record and label defective PCBs. The data are then used to train a YOLO/CNN model to detect defects in PCBs. In this study, 11,000 images and a network of 24 convolutional layers and 2 fully connected layers were used. The proposed model achieved a defect detection accuracy of 98.79% in PCBs with a batch size of 32.

In this paper, an accurate two-stage deep learning method is proposed to detect vulnerable plaques in ultrasonic images of cardiovascular. Firstly, a Fully Convonutional Neural Network (FCN) named U-Net is used to segment the original Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography (IVOCT) cardiovascular images. We experiment on different threshold values to find the best threshold for removing noise and background in the original images. Secondly, a modified Faster RCNN is adopted to do precise detection. The modified Faster R-CNN utilize six-scale anchors (122,162,322,642,1282,2562) instead of the conventional one scale or three scale approaches. First, we present three problems in cardiovascular vulnerable plaque diagnosis, then we demonstrate how our method solve these problems. The proposed method in this paper apply deep convolutional neural networks to the whole diagnostic procedure. Test results show the Recall rate, Precision rate, IoU (Intersection-over-Union) rate and Total score are 0.94, 0.885, 0.913 and 0.913 respectively, higher than the 1st team of CCCV2017 Cardiovascular OCT Vulnerable Plaque Detection Challenge. AP of the designed Faster RCNN is 83.4%, higher than conventional approaches which use one-scale or three-scale anchors. These results demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed method and the power of deep learning approaches in diagnose cardiovascular vulnerable plaques.

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.
