Understanding of animal collectives is limited by the ability to track each individual. We describe an algorithm and software that extract all trajectories from video, with high identification accuracy for collectives of up to 100 individuals. idtracker.ai uses two convolutional networks: one that detects when animals touch or cross and another for animal identification. The tool is trained with a protocol that adapts to video conditions and tracking difficulty.The idtracker.ai software tracks freely moving animals in large groups of up to 100 individuals. The tool is versatile and has been applied to groups of fruit flies, zebrafish, medaka, ants and mice.

In today’s society, investment wealth management has become a mainstream of the contemporary era. Investment wealth management refers to the use of funds by investors to arrange funds reasonably, for example, savings, bank financial products, bonds, stocks, commodity spots, real estate, gold, art, and many others. Wealth management tools manage and assign families, individuals, enterprises, and institutions to achieve the purpose of increasing and maintaining value to accelerate asset growth. Among them, in investment and financial management, people’s favorite product of investment often stocks, because the stock market has great advantages and charm, especially compared with other investment methods. More and more scholars have developed methods of prediction from multiple angles for the stock market. According to the feature of financial time series and the task of price prediction, this article proposes a new framework structure to achieve a more accurate prediction of the stock price, which combines Convolution Neural Network (CNN) and Long–Short-Term Memory Neural Network (LSTM). This new method is aptly named stock sequence array convolutional LSTM (SACLSTM). It constructs a sequence array of historical data and its leading indicators (options and futures), and uses the array as the input image of the CNN framework, and extracts certain feature vectors through the convolutional layer and the layer of pooling, and as the input vector of LSTM, and takes ten stocks in U.S.A and Taiwan as the experimental data. Compared with previous methods, the prediction performance of the proposed algorithm in this article leads to better results when compared directly.

Cyberbullying is disturbing and troubling online misconduct. It appears in various forms and is usually in a textual format in most social networks. Intelligent systems are necessary for automated detection of these incidents. Some of the recent experiments have tackled this issue with traditional machine learning models. Most of the models have been applied to one social network at a time. The latest research has seen different models based on deep learning algorithms make an impact on the detection of cyberbullying. These detection mechanisms have resulted in efficient identification of incidences while others have limitations of standard identification versions. This paper performs an empirical analysis to determine the effectiveness and performance of deep learning algorithms in detecting insults in Social Commentary. The following four deep learning models were used for experimental results, namely: Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BLSTM), Gated Recurrent Units (GRU), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). Data pre-processing steps were followed that included text cleaning, tokenization, stemming, Lemmatization, and removal of stop words. After performing data pre-processing, clean textual data is passed to deep learning algorithms for prediction. The results show that the BLSTM model achieved high accuracy and F 1-measure scores in comparison to RNN, LSTM, and GRU. Our in-depth results shown which deep learning models can be most effective against cyberbullying when directly compared with others and paves the way for future hybrid technologies that may be employed to combat this serious online issue.

The demand for automatic detection of Novel Coronavirus or COVID-19 is increasing across the globe. The exponential rise in cases burdens healthcare facilities, and a vast amount of multimedia healthcare data is being explored to find a solution. This study presents a practical solution to detect COVID-19 from chest X-rays while distinguishing those from normal and impacted by Viral Pneumonia via Deep Convolution Neural Networks (CNN). In this study, three pre-trained CNN models (EfficientNetB0, VGG16, and InceptionV3) are evaluated through transfer learning. The rationale for selecting these specific models is their balance of accuracy and efficiency with fewer parameters suitable for mobile applications. The dataset used for the study is publicly available and compiled from different sources. This study uses deep learning techniques and performance metrics (accuracy, recall, specificity, precision, and F1 scores). The results show that the proposed approach produced a high-quality model, with an overall accuracy of 92.93%, COVID-19, a sensitivity of 94.79%. The work indicates a definite possibility to implement computer vision design to enable effective detection and screening measures.

Background In network meta-analyses, several treatments can be compared by connecting evidence from clinical trials that have investigated two or more treatments. The resulting trial network allows estimating the relative effects of all pairs of treatments taking indirect evidence into account. For a valid analysis of the network, consistent information from different pathways is assumed. Consistency can be checked by contrasting effect estimates from direct comparisons with the evidence of the remaining network. Unfortunately, one deviating direct comparison may have side effects on the network estimates of others, thus producing hot spots of inconsistency. Methods We provide a tool, the net heat plot, to render transparent which direct comparisons drive each network estimate and to display hot spots of inconsistency: this permits singling out which of the suspicious direct comparisons are sufficient to explain the presence of inconsistency. We base our methods on fixed-effects models. For disclosure of potential drivers, the plot comprises the contribution of each direct estimate to network estimates resulting from regression diagnostics. In combination, we show heat colors corresponding to the change in agreement between direct and indirect estimate when relaxing the assumption of consistency for one direct comparison. A clustering procedure is applied to the heat matrix in order to find hot spots of inconsistency. Results The method is shown to work with several examples, which are constructed by perturbing the effect of single study designs, and with two published network meta-analyses. Once the possible sources of inconsistencies are identified, our method also reveals which network estimates they affect. Conclusion Our proposal is seen to be useful for identifying sources of inconsistencies in the network together with the interrelatedness of effect estimates. It opens the way for a further analysis based on subject matter considerations.

In recent years, machine learning has become a hot research method in various fields and has been applied to every aspect of our life, providing an intelligent solution to problems that could not be solved or difficult to be solved before.

Link prediction, a critical pursuit in complex networks research, revolves around the predictive understanding of connections between nodes. Our novel approach introduces a hypergraph to model the network, diverging from the conventional “node–edge” structures. This departure involves the strategic mapping of hyper-motifs into open and closed structures, and the utilization of hyper-motifs as hyper-nodes. This paper proposes the learning embedding based on hyper-motif of the network (LEHMN) model to improve the link prediction process. This innovative framework aims at enhancing our capacity to discern and represent nuanced structural similarities between nodes that might elude traditional models. To further refine our approach, we introduce the depth and breadth motif random walk strategy. This strategy, designed with a consideration for both connectivity and structural similarity, excels in acquiring node sequences. We apply this method to both open and closed hyper-motif structures, emphasizing its versatility and effectiveness in capturing the intricate relationships inherent in the network. In the realm of experimental validation, our proposed model outshines state-of-the-art baselines when tested on diverse datasets. The results highlight significant improvements across various scenarios, underscoring the robustness and efficacy of our approach. This substantiates the pivotal role our method plays in advancing link prediction within the dynamic landscape of complex networks research.
