The article suggests taking a look at the artistic development of “artificial intelligence” not in the aspect of its humanization and challenge to humanism, but as a tool for processing data, the number of which and the features technically exceed the capabilities of human understanding. The influence of dataism on culture is considered. The article analyzes the works of contemporary artists (Mario Klingemann, Zach Blas, etc.) working with the phenomenon of “algorithmic apophenia”. The thesis is considered that the transformation of data into information in computer neural networks is methodologically comparable to the creative approaches of modernist artists, which allows us to reach a new level of artis-r tic reflection in the culture that conditioned by machine civilization. Critical and reflexive models of apophenia in contemporary art are collided.

Deep learning is an artificial intelligence function that imitates the workings of the human brain in processing data and creating patterns for use in decision making. Deep learning is a subset of machine learning in artificial intelligence (AI) that has networks capable of learning and recognizing patterns from data that is unstructured or unlabelled. It is also known as deep neural learning or deep neural network. Convolutional Neural Networks (ConvNets or CNNs) are a category of Neural Networks that have proven very effective in areas such as image recognition and classification. ConvNets have been successful in identifying faces, objects and traffic signs apart from powering vision in robots and self-driving cars. ConvNets can also be used for Radio Imaging which helps in disease detection. This paper helps in detecting COVID-19 from the X-ray images provided to the model using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and image augmentation techniques.

Several types of sensors have been available in off-the-shelf mobile devices, including motion, magnetic, vision, acoustic, and location sensors. This paper focuses on the fusion of the data acquired from motion and magnetic sensors, i.e., accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer sensors, for the recognition of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) using pattern recognition techniques. The system developed in this study includes data acquisition, data processing, data fusion, and artificial intelligence methods. Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are included in artificial intelligence methods, which are used in this study for the recognition of ADL. The purpose of this study is the creation of a new method using ANN for the identification of ADL, comparing three types of ANN, in order to achieve results with a reliable accuracy. The best accuracy was obtained with Deep Learning, which, after the application of the L2 regularization and normalization techniques on the sensors’ data, reports an accuracy of 89.51%.

Актуальность. Определяется увеличением заболеваемости глаукомой во всем мире как одной из основных причин снижения зрения и поздней постановкой диагноза при имеющихся выраженных изменений со стороны органа зрения. Цель. Повысить эффективность диагностики глаукомы на основании оценки диска зрительного нерва и перипапиллярной сетчатки нейросетью и искусственным интеллектом. Материал и методы. Для обучения нейронной сети были выделены четыре диагноза: первый – «норма», второй – начальная глаукома, третий – развитая стадия глаукомы, четвертый – глаукома далеко зашедшей стадии. Классификация производилась на основе снимков глазного дна: область диска зрительного нерва и перипапиллярной сетчатки. В результате классификации входные данные разбивались на два класса «норма» и «глаукома». Для целей обучения и оценки качества обучения, множество данных было разбито на два подмножества: тренировочное и тестовое. В тренировочное подмножество были включены 8193 снимка с глаукомными изменениями диска зрительного нерва и «норма» (пациенты без глаукомы). Стадии заболевания были верифицированы согласно действующей классификации первичной открытоугольной глаукомы 3 (тремя) экспертами со стажем работы от 5 до 25 лет. В тестовое подмножество были включены 407 снимков, из них 199 – «норма», 208 – с начальной, развитой и далекозашедшей стадиями глаукомы. Для решения задачи классификации на «норма»/«глаукома» была выбрана архитектура нейронной сети, состоящая из пяти сверточных слоев. Результаты. Чувствительность тестирования дисков зрительных нервов с помощью нейронной сети составила 0,91, специфичность – 0,93. Анализ полученных результатов работы показал эффективность разработанной нейронной сети и ее преимущество перед имеющимися методами диагностики глаукомы. Выводы. Использование нейросетей и искусственного интеллекта является современным, эффективным и перспективным методом диагностики глаукомы.

AbstractBiologically inspired spiking neural networks are increasingly popular in the field of artificial intelligence due to their ability to solve complex problems while being power efficient. They do so by leveraging the timing of discrete spikes as main information carrier. Though, industrial applications are still lacking, partially because the question of how to encode incoming data into discrete spike events cannot be uniformly answered. In this paper, we summarise the signal encoding schemes presented in the literature and propose a uniform nomenclature to prevent the vague usage of ambiguous definitions. Therefore we survey both, the theoretical foundations as well as applications of the encoding schemes. This work provides a foundation in spiking signal encoding and gives an overview over different application-oriented implementations which utilise the schemes.

Three different modeling approaches were applied to explain truck accidents at interchanges in Washington State during a 27-month period. Three models were developed for each ramp type including linear regression, neural networks, and a hybrid system using fuzzy logic and neural networks. The study showed that linear regression was able to predict accident frequencies that fell within one standard deviation from the overall mean of the dependent variable. However, the coefficient of determination was very low in all cases. The other two artificial intelligence (AI) approaches showed a high level of performance in identifying different patterns of accidents in the training data and presented a better fit when compared to the regression model. However, the ability of these AI models to predict test data that were not included in the training process showed unsatisfactory results.
