A Large-Scale CNN Ensemble for Medication Safety Analysis
Revealing Adverse Drug Reactions (ADR) is an essential part of post-marketing
drug surveillance, and data from health-related forums and medical communities
can be of a great significance for estimating such effects. In this paper, we
propose an end-to-end CNN-based method for predicting drug safety on user
comments from healthcare discussion forums. We present an architecture that is
based on a vast ensemble of CNNs with varied structural parameters, where the
prediction is determined by the majority vote. To evaluate the performance of
the proposed solution, we present a large-scale dataset collected from a
medical website that consists of over 50 thousand reviews for more than 4000
drugs. The results demonstrate that our model significantly outperforms
conventional approaches and predicts medicine safety with an accuracy of 87.17%
for binary and 62.88% for multi-classification tasks
Why and When Can Deep -- but Not Shallow -- Networks Avoid the Curse of Dimensionality: a Review
The paper characterizes classes of functions for which deep learning can be
exponentially better than shallow learning. Deep convolutional networks are a
special case of these conditions, though weight sharing is not the main reason
for their exponential advantage
Deep Discrete Hashing with Self-supervised Pairwise Labels
Hashing methods have been widely used for applications of large-scale image
retrieval and classification. Non-deep hashing methods using handcrafted
features have been significantly outperformed by deep hashing methods due to
their better feature representation and end-to-end learning framework. However,
the most striking successes in deep hashing have mostly involved discriminative
models, which require labels. In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised
deep hashing method, named Deep Discrete Hashing (DDH), for large-scale image
retrieval and classification. In the proposed framework, we address two main
problems: 1) how to directly learn discrete binary codes? 2) how to equip the
binary representation with the ability of accurate image retrieval and
classification in an unsupervised way? We resolve these problems by introducing
an intermediate variable and a loss function steering the learning process,
which is based on the neighborhood structure in the original space.
Experimental results on standard datasets (CIFAR-10, NUS-WIDE, and Oxford-17)
demonstrate that our DDH significantly outperforms existing hashing methods by
large margin in terms of~mAP for image retrieval and object recognition. Code
