“…Deep Learning (DL) is the key factor for an increased interest in research and development in the area of Artificial Intelligence (AI), resulting in a surge of Machine Learning (ML) based applications that are reshaping entire fields and seedling new ones. Variations of Deep Neural Networks (DNN), the algorithms residing at the core of DL, have successfully been implemented in a plethora of domains, including here but not limited to image classification [17,35,80], natural language processing [6,22,73], speech recognition [33,37], data (image, text, audio) generation [7,40,44,61], cybersecurity [18,21,59], and even aiding with the COVID-19 pandemic [52,55].…”
