In this paper we introduce a deep neural network architecture to perform information extraction on character-based sequences, e.g. named-entity recognition on Chinese text or secondary-structure detection on protein sequences. With a task-independent architecture, the deep network relies only on simple character-based features, which obviates the need for task-specific feature engineering. The proposed discriminative framework includes three important strategies, 1 a deep learning module mapping characters to vector representations is included to capture the semantic relationship between characters; 2 abundant online sequences unlabeled are utilized to improve the vector representation through semi-supervised learning; and 3 the constraints of spatial dependency among output labels are modeled explicitly in the deep architecture. The experiments on four benchmark datasets have demonstrated that, the proposed architecture consistently leads to the state-of-the-art performance. The state-of-the-art of face recognition has been significantly advanced by the emergence of deep learning. Very deep neural networks recently achieved great success on general object recognition because of their superb learning capacity. This motivates us to investigate their effectiveness on face recognition. This paper proposes two very deep neural network architectures, referred to as DeepID3, for face recognition. These two architectures are rebuilt from stacked convolution and inception layers proposed in VGG net and GoogLeNet to make them suitable to face recognition. Joint face identification-verification supervisory signals are added to both intermediate and final feature extraction layers during training. An ensemble of the proposed two architectures achieves 99.53 LFW face verification accuracy and 96.0 LFW rank-1 face identification accuracy, respectively. A further discussion of LFW face verification result is given in the end. Recently several different deep learning architectures have been proposed that take a string of characters as the raw input signal and automatically derive features for text classification. Little studies are available that compare the effectiveness of these approaches for character based text classification with each other. In this paper we perform such an empirical comparison for the important cybersecurity problem of DGA detection: classifying domain names as either benign vs. produced by malware (i.e., by a Domain Generation Algorithm). Training and evaluating on a dataset with 2M domain names shows that there is surprisingly little difference between various convolutional neural network (CNN) and recurrent neural network (RNN) based architectures in terms of accuracy, prompting a preference for the simpler architectures, since they are faster to train and less prone to overfitting. Recently there has been a dramatic increase in the performance of recognition systems due to the introduction of deep architectures for representation learning and classification. However, the mathematical reasons for this success remain elusive. This tutorial will review recent work that aims to provide a mathematical justification for several properties of deep networks, such as global optimality, geometric stability, and invariance of the learned representations.
