With the development of technology and smart devices in the medical field, the computer system has become an essential part of this development to learn devices in the medical field. One of the learning methods is deep learning (DL), which is a branch of machine learning (ML). The deep learning approach has been used in this field because it is one of the modern methods of obtaining accurate results through its algorithms, and among these algorithms that are used in this field are convolutional neural networks (CNN) and recurrent neural networks (RNN). In this paper we reviewed what have researchers have done in their researches to solve fetal problems, then summarize and carefully discuss the applications in different tasks identified for segmentation and classification of ultrasound images. Finally, this study discussed the potential challenges and directions for applying deep learning in ultrasound image analysis.

Ultrasound scanning is most excellent significant diagnosis techniques utilized for thyroid nodules identification. A thyroid nodule is unnecessary cells that can develop in your base of neck which can be normal or cancerous. Many Computer added diagnosis systems (CAD) have been developed as a second opinion for radiologist. The thyroid nodules classification using machine learning and deep learning approach is latest trend which is using to improve accuracy for differentiation of thyroid nodules from benign and malignant type. In this paper we review the most recent work on CAD system which uses different feature extraction technique and classifier used for thyroid nodules classification with deep learning approach. This paper we illustrate the result obtained by these studies and highlight the limitation of each proposed methods. Moreover we summarize convolution neural network (CNN) architecture for classification of thyroid nodule. This literature review is meant at researcher but it also useful for radiologist who is interesting in CAD tool in ultrasound imaging for second opinion.

Abstract An important aspect of the study of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) in ultrarelativistic collisions of heavy ions is the ability to identify, in experimental data, a subset of the jets that were strongly modified by the interaction with the QGP. In this work, we propose studying Deep Learning techniques for this purpose. Samples of Z+jet events were simulated in vacuum (pp collisions) and medium (PbPb collisions) and used to train Deep Neural Networks with the objective of discriminating between medium- and vacuum-like jets within the medium (PbPb) sample. Dedicated Convolutional Neural Networks, Dense Neural Networks and Recurrent Neural Networks were developed and trained, and their performance was studied. Our results show the potential of these techniques for the identification of jet quenching effects induced by the presence of the QGP.

AbstractRecurrent neural networks (RNNs) with memory (e.g. LSTMs) and attention mechanisms are widely used in natural language processing because they can capture short and long term sequential information for diverse tasks. We propose an integrated deep learning model for microbial DNA sequence data, which exploits convolutional networks, recurrent neural networks, and attention mechanisms to perform sample-associated attribute prediction—phenotype prediction—and extract interesting features, such as informative taxa and predictive k-mer context. In this paper, we develop this novel deep learning approach and evaluate its application to amplicon sequences. We focus on typically short DNA reads of 16s ribosomal RNA (rRNA) marker genes, which identify the heterogeneity of a microbial community sample. Our deep learning approach enables sample-level attribute and taxonomic prediction, with the aim of aiding biological research and supporting medical diagnosis. We demonstrate that our implementation of a novel attention-based deep network architecture, Read2Pheno, achieves read-level phenotypic prediction and, in turn, that aggregating read-level information can robustly predict microbial community properties, host phenotype, and taxonomic classification, with performance comparable to conventional approaches. Most importantly, as a further result of the training process, the network architecture will encode sequences (reads) into dense, meaningful representations: learned embedded vectors output on the intermediate layer of the network model, which can provide biological insight when visualized. Finally, we demonstrate that a model with an attention layer can automatically identify informative regions in sequences/reads which are particularly informative for classification tasks. An implementation of the attention-based deep learning network is available at https://github.com/EESI/sequence_attention.

<p>SMILES randomization, a form of data augmentation, has previously been shown to increase the performance of deep learning models compared to non-augmented baselines. Here, we propose a novel data augmentation method we call “Levenshtein augmentation” which considers local SMILES sub-sequence similarity between reactants and their respective products when creating training pairs. The performance of Levenshtein augmentation was tested using two state of the art models - transformer and sequence-to-sequence based recurrent neural networks with attention. Levenshtein augmentation demonstrated an increase performance over non-augmented, and conventionally SMILES randomization augmented data when used for training of baseline models. Furthermore, Levenshtein augmentation seemingly results in what we define as <i>attentional gain </i>– an enhancement in the pattern recognition capabilities of the underlying network to molecular motifs.</p>
