Artificial Intelligence has been widely applied today, and the subsequent privacy leakage problems have also been paid attention to. Attacks such as model inference attacks on deep neural networks can easily extract user information from neural networks. Therefore, it is necessary to protect privacy in deep learning. Differential privacy, as a popular topic in privacy-preserving in recent years, which provides rigorous privacy guarantee, can also be used to preserve privacy in deep learning. Although many articles have proposed different methods to combine differential privacy and deep learning, there are no comprehensive papers to analyze and compare the differences and connections between these technologies. For this purpose, this paper is proposed to compare different differential private methods in deep learning. We comparatively analyze and classify several deep learning models under differential privacy. Meanwhile, we also pay attention to the application of differential privacy in Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), comparing and analyzing these models. Finally, we summarize the application of differential privacy in deep neural networks.

COVID-19 has emerged as the latest worrisome pandemic, which is reported to have its outbreak in Wuhan, China. The infection spreads by means of human contact, as a result, it has caused massive infections across 200 countries around the world. Artificial intelligence has likewise contributed to managing the COVID-19 pandemic in various aspects within a short span of time. Deep Neural Networks that are explored in this paper have contributed to the detection of COVID-19 from imaging sources. The datasets, pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction, classification and test results which can be useful for discovering future directions in the domain of automatic diagnosis of the disease, utilizing artificial intelligence-based frameworks, have been investigated in this paper.

<p>Machine learning is being presented as a new solution for a wide range of geoscience problems. Primarily machine learning has been used for 3D seismic data processing, seismic facies analysis and well log data correlation. The rapid development in technology with open-source artificial intelligence libraries and the accessibility of affordable computer graphics processing units (GPU) makes the application of machine learning in geosciences increasingly tractable. However, the application of artificial intelligence in structural interpretation workflows of subsurface datasets is still ambiguous. This study aims to use machine learning techniques to classify images of folds and fold-thrust structures. Here we show that convolutional neural networks (CNNs) as supervised deep learning techniques provide excellent algorithms to discriminate between geological image datasets. Four different datasets of images have been used to train and test the machine learning models. These four datasets are a seismic character dataset with five classes (faults, folds, salt, flat layers and basement), folds types with three classes (buckle, chevron and conjugate), fault types with three classes (normal, reverse and thrust) and fold-thrust geometries with three classes (fault bend fold, fault propagation fold and detachment fold). These image datasets are used to investigate three machine learning models. One Feedforward linear neural network model and two convolutional neural networks models (Convolution 2d layer transforms sequential model and Residual block model (ResNet with 9, 34, and 50 layers)). Validation and testing datasets forms a critical part of testing the model’s performance accuracy. The ResNet model records the highest performance accuracy score, of the machine learning models tested. Our CNN image classification model analysis provides a framework for applying machine learning to increase structural interpretation efficiency, and shows that CNN classification models can be applied effectively to geoscience problems. The study provides a starting point to apply unsupervised machine learning approaches to sub-surface structural interpretation workflows.</p>

 In this work, we consider the task of classifying binary positive-unlabeled (PU) data. The existing discriminative learning based PU models attempt to seek an optimal reweighting strategy for U data, so that a decent decision boundary can be found. However, given limited P data, the conventional PU models tend to suffer from overfitting when adapted to very flexible deep neural networks. In contrast, we are the first to innovate a totally new paradigm to attack the binary PU task, from perspective of generative learning by leveraging the powerful generative adversarial networks (GAN). Our generative positive-unlabeled (GenPU) framework incorporates an array of discriminators and generators that are endowed with different roles in simultaneously producing positive and negative realistic samples. We provide theoretical analysis to justify that, at equilibrium, GenPU is capable of recovering both positive and negative data distributions. Moreover, we show GenPU is generalizable and closely related to the semi-supervised classification. Given rather limited P data, experiments on both synthetic and real-world dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed framework. With infinite realistic and diverse sample streams generated from GenPU, a very flexible classifier can then be trained using deep neural networks.

It is becoming increasingly apparent that a significant amount of the population suffers from mental health problems, such as stress, depression, and anxiety. These issues are a result of a vast range of factors, such as genetic conditions, social circumstances, and lifestyle influences. A key cause, or contributor, for many people is their work; poor mental state can be exacerbated by jobs and a person’s working environment. Additionally, as the information age continues to burgeon, people are increasingly sedentary in their working lives, spending more of their days seated, and less time moving around. It is a well-known fact that a decrease in physical activity is detrimental to mental well-being. Therefore, the need for innovative research and development to combat negativity early is required. Implementing solutions using Artificial Intelligence has great potential in this field of research. This work proposes a solution to this problem domain, utilising two concepts of Artificial Intelligence, namely, Convolutional Neural Networks and Generative Adversarial Networks. A CNN is trained to accurately predict when an individual is experiencing negative emotions, achieving a top accuracy of 80.38% with a loss of 0.42. A GAN is trained to synthesise images from an input domain that can be attributed to evoking position emotions. A Graphical User Interface is created to display the generated media to users in order to boost mood and reduce feelings of stress. The work demonstrates the capability for using Deep Learning to identify stress and negative mood, and the strategies that can be implemented to reduce them.

AbstractDeep learning, which is especially formidable in handling big data, has achieved great success in various fields, including bioinformatics. With the advances of the big data era in biology, it is foreseeable that deep learning will become increasingly important in the field and will be incorporated in vast majorities of analysis pipelines. In this review, we provide both the exoteric introduction of deep learning, and concrete examples and implementations of its representative applications in bioinformatics. We start from the recent achievements of deep learning in the bioinformatics field, pointing out the problems which are suitable to use deep learning. After that, we introduce deep learning in an easy-to-understand fashion, from shallow neural networks to legendary convolutional neural networks, legendary recurrent neural networks, graph neural networks, generative adversarial networks, variational autoencoder, and the most recent state-of-the-art architectures. After that, we provide eight examples, covering five bioinformatics research directions and all the four kinds of data type, with the implementation written in Tensorflow and Keras. Finally, we discuss the common issues, such as overfitting and interpretability, that users will encounter when adopting deep learning methods and provide corresponding suggestions. The implementations are freely available at https://github.com/lykaust15/Deep_learning_examples.

Currently there is no publicly available adequate dataset that could be used for training Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) on car images. All available car datasets differ in noise, pose, and zoom levels. Thus, the objective of this work was to create an improved car image dataset that would be better suited for GAN training. To improve the performance of the GAN, we coupled the LSUN and Stanford car datasets. A new merged dataset was then pruned in order to adjust zoom levels and reduce the noise of images. This process resulted in fewer images that could be used for training, with increased quality though. This pruned dataset was evaluated by training the StyleGAN with original settings. Pruning the combined LSUN and Stanford datasets resulted in 2,067,710 images of cars with less noise and more adjusted zoom levels. The training of the StyleGAN on the LSUN-Stanford car dataset proved to be superior to the training with just the LSUN dataset by 3.7% using the Fréchet Inception Distance (FID) as a metric. Results pointed out that the proposed LSUN-Stanford car dataset is more consistent and better suited for training GAN neural networks than other currently available large car datasets.
