Handwritten character recognition (HCR) is the detection of characters from images, documents and other sources and changes them in machine-readable shape for further processing. The accurate recognition of intricate-shaped compound handwritten characters is still a great challenge. Recent advances in convolutional neural network (CNN) have made great progress in HCR by learning discriminatory characteristics from large amounts of raw data. In this paper, CNN is implemented to recognize the characters from a test dataset. The main focus of this work is to investigate CNN capability to recognize the characters from the image dataset and the accuracy of recognition with training and testing. CNN recognizes the characters by considering the forms and contrasting the features that differentiate among characters. Our CNN implementation is experimented with the dataset NIST to obtain the accuracy of handwritten characters. Test result provides that an accuracy of 92.91% accuracy is obtained on 200 images with a training set of 1000 images from NIST.

We present a modern hybrid paradigm for managing tacit semantic awareness and qualitative meaning in short texts. The main goals of this proposed technique are to use deep learning approaches to identify multilevel textual sentiment with far less time and more accurate and simple network structure training for better performance. In this analysis, the proposed new hybrid deep learning HARC model architecture for the recognition of multilevel textual sentiment that combines hierarchical attention with Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU), and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) outperforms other compared approaches. BiGRU and BiLSTM were used in this model to eliminate individual context functions and to adequately manage long-range features. Dilated CNN was used to replicate the retrieved feature by forwarding vector instances for better support in the hierarchical attention layer, and it was used to eliminate better text information using higher coupling correlations. Our method handles the most important features to recover the limitations of handling context and semantics sufficiently. On a variety of datasets, our proposed HARC algorithm solution outperformed traditional machine learning approaches as well as comparable deep learning models by a margin of 1%. The accuracy of the proposed HARC method was 82.50 percent IMDB, 98.00 percent for toxic data, 92.31 percent for Cornflower, and 94.60 percent for Emotion recognition data. Our method works better than other basic and CNN and RNN based hybrid models. In the future, we will work for more levels of text emotions from long and more complex text.

Deep learning methods have shown early progress in analyzing complicated ECG signals, especially in heartbeat classification and arrhythmia detection. There is still a great deal of space for further research on this area before reaching a definite decision. This study introduced a novel hybrid framework based on a bidirectional recurrent neural network (BiRNN) with a multilayered dilated convolution neural network (CNN) for arrhythmia classification. Initially, the raw ECG signals are filtered using Chebyshev Type II method and the Daubechies wavelet method is used to solve fractal problems and signal discontinuities. Then, a synthetic signal is generated using a generative adversarial network (GAN) to handle imbalanced signal classes. The proposed Bidirectional RNN with Dilated CNN (BRDC) architecture takes advantage of multilayered dilated CNN and bidirectional RNN units (bidirectional gated recurrent Units, BiGRU, bidirectional long short-term memory, BiLSTM) to generate fusion features and then, fusion features are classified in the fully connected layer. The PhysioNet 2017 challenge (MIT-BIH) dataset is used to train and validate the proposed approach. By combining fusion features with dilated CNN, the proposed approach outperforms the existing model for arrhythmia detection with 99.90 % accuracy, 98.41 % F1-score, 97.96 % precision, and 99.90 % recall. Overall, our hybrid BRDC model provides a cost-effective ECG signal reduction and high-performance automated recognition technique to identify arrhythmia. In the future, an automatic and cloud-based system with more arrhythmia data variance to test the model's robustness will be given the highest priority.

Automatic leaf disease detection techniques are effective for reducing the time-consuming effort of monitoring large crop farms and early identification of disease symptoms of plant leaves. Although crop tomatoes are seen to be susceptible to a variety of diseases that can reduce the production of the crop. In recent years, advanced deep learning methods show successful applications for plant disease detection based on observed symptoms on leaves. However, these methods have some limitations. This study proposed a high-performance tomato leaf disease detection approach, namely attention-based dilated CNN logistic regression (ADCLR). Firstly, we develop a new feature extraction method using attention-based dilated CNN to extract most relevant features in a faster time. In our preprocessing, we use Bilateral filtering to handle larger features to make the image smoother and the Ostu image segmentation process to remove noise in a fast and simple way. In this proposed method, we preprocess the image with bilateral filtering and Otsu segmentation. Then, we use the Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (CGAN) model to generate a synthetic image from the image which is preprocessed in the previous stage. The synthetic image is generated to handle imbalance and noisy or wrongly labeled data to obtain good prediction results. Then, the extracted features are normalized to lower the dimensionality. Finally, extracted features from preprocessed data are combined and then classified using fast and simple logistic regression (LR) classifier. The experimental outcomes show the state-of-the-art performance on the Plant Village database of tomato leaf disease by achieving 100%, 100%, 96.6% training, testing, and validation accuracy, respectively, for multiclass. From the experimental analysis, it is clearly demonstrated that the proposed multimodal approach can be utilized to detect tomato leaf disease precisely, simply and quickly. We have a potential plan to improve the model to make it cloud-based automated leaf disease classification for different plants.
