The application of deep neural networks to finance has received a great deal of attention from researchers because no assumption about a suitable mathematical model has to be made prior to forecasting and they are capable of extracting useful information from large sets of data, which is required to describe nonlinear input-output relations of financial time series. The paper presents a new deep neural network model where single layered autoencoder and 4 layered neural network are serially coupled for stock price forecasting. The autoencoder extracts deep features, which are fed into multi-layer neural networks to predict the next day's stock closing prices. The proposed deep neural network is progressively learned layer by layer ahead of the final learning of the total network. The proposed model to predict daily close prices of KOrea composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) is built, and its performance is demonstrated.

This paper proposes a novel approach to the problem of audio signal clustering using a stacked autoencoder. The proposed stacked autoencoder learns an efficient representation for the input signal, enables clustering constituent signals with similar characteristics, and therefore the original sources can be separated based on the clustering results. STFT (Short-Time Fourier Transform) is performed to extract time-frequency spectrum, and rectangular windows at all the possible locations are used as input values to the autoencoder. The outputs at the middle, encoding layer, are used to cluster the rectangular windows and the original sources are separated by the Wiener filters derived from the clustering results. Source separation experiments were carried out in comparison to the conventional NMF (Non-negative Matrix Factorization), and the estimated sources by the proposed method well represent the characteristics of the orignal sources as shown in the time-frequency representation.

Nonresponse and missing values are caused by sample dropouts and avoidance of answers to surveys. In this case, problems with the possibility of information loss and biased reasoning arise, and a replacement of missing values with appropriate values is required. In this paper, as an alternative to missing values imputation, we compare several replacement methods, which use mean, linear regression, random forest, K-nearest neighbor, autoencoder and denoising autoencoder based on deep learning. These methods of imputing missing values are explained, and each method is compared by using continuous simulation data and real data. The comparison results confirm that in most cases, the performance of the random forest imputation method and the denoising autoencoder imputation method are better than the others.

The present work proposes a classification system for the HEp-2 cell images using an unsupervised deep feature learning method. Unlike most of the state-of-the-art methods in the literature that utilize deep learning in a strictly supervised way, we propose here the use of the deep convolutional autoencoder (DCAE) as the principal feature extractor for classifying the different types of the HEp-2 cell images. The network takes the original cell images as the inputs and learns to reconstruct them in order to capture the features related to the global shape of the cells. A final feature vector is constructed by using the latent representations extracted from the DCAE, giving a highly discriminative feature representation. The created features will be fed to a nonlinear classifier whose output will represent the final type of the cell image. We have tested the discriminability of the proposed features on one of the most popular HEp-2 cell classification datasets, the SNPHEp-2 dataset and the results show that the proposed features manage to capture the distinctive characteristics of the different cell types while performing at least as well as the actual deep learning based state-of-the-art methods.

This paper proposes a noise-tolerant image classification system using multiple autoencoders. The development of deep learning technology has dramatically improved the performance of image classifiers. However, if the images are contaminated by noise, the performance degrades rapidly. Noise added to the image is inevitably generated in the process of obtaining and transmitting the image. Therefore, in order to use the classifier in a real environment, we have to deal with the noise. On the other hand, the autoencoder is an artificial neural network model that is trained to have similar input and output values. If the input data is similar to the training data, the error between the input data and output data of the autoencoder will be small. However, if the input data is not similar to the training data, the error will be large. The proposed system uses the relationship between the input data and the output data of the autoencoder, and it has two phases to classify the images. In the first phase, the classes with the highest likelihood of classification are selected and subject to the procedure again in the second phase. For the performance analysis of the proposed system, classification accuracy was tested on a Gaussian noise-contaminated MNIST dataset. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the proposed system in the noisy environment has higher accuracy than the CNN-based classification technique.

In this paper, we propose a new image analysis method based on regression manifold 3-D PCA. The proposed method is a new image analysis method consisting of a regression analysis algorithm with a structure designed based on an autoencoder capable of nonlinear expansion of manifold 3-D PCA and PCA for efficient dimension reduction when entering large-capacity image data. With the configuration of an autoencoder, a regression manifold 3-DPCA, which derives the best hyperplane through three-dimensional rotation of image pixel values, and a Bayesian rule structure similar to a deep learning structure, are applied. Experiments are performed to verify performance. The image is improved by utilizing the fine dust image, and accuracy performance evaluation is performed through the classification model. As a result, it can be confirmed that it is effective for deep learning performance.

This study aims to solve the problem of class imbalance in numerical data by using a deep learning-based Variational AutoEncoder and to improve the performance of the learning model by augmenting the learning data. We propose 'D-VAE' to artificially increase the number of records for a given table data. The main features of the proposed technique go through discretization and feature selection in the preprocessing process to optimize the data. In the discretization process, K-means are applied and grouped, and then converted into one-hot vectors by one-hot encoding technique. Subsequently, for memory efficiency, sample data are generated with Variational AutoEncoder using only features that help predict with RFECV among feature selection techniques. To verify the performance of the proposed model, we demonstrate its validity by conducting experiments by data augmentation ratio.

Deep learning is a promising solution to a number of complex problems based on its inherent capability to approximate almost all types of functions without the demand for handcrafted feature extraction. New wireless transmission and access schemes based on deep learning are being increasingly proposed as substitutes for existing approaches, providing a lower complexity and better performance gain. Among such schemes, a communications system is viewed as an end-to-end autoencoder. The learning process applied in autoencoders can automatically deal with some nonlinear or unknown properties in communications systems. Deep learning can also be used to optimize each processing block for required tasks such as channel decoding, signal detection, and multiple access. On top of recent related research trends, we suggest appropriate research approaches for communications systems to adopt deep learning.

In this paper, a stacked convolutional autoencoder model is proposed in order to classify Alzheimer's disease with high accuracy in PET/CT images. The proposed model makes use of the latent space representation - which is also called the bottleneck, of the encoder-decoder architecture: The input image is sent through the pipeline and the encoder part, using stacked convolutional filters, extracts the most useful information. This information is in the bottleneck, which then uses Softmax classification operation to classify between Alzheimer's disease, Mild Cognitive Impairment, and Normal Control. Using the data from Dong-A University, the model performs classification in detecting Alzheimer's disease up to 98.54% accuracy.

Loose parts monitoring and detecting alarm type in real Nuclear Power Plant have challenges such as background noise, insufficient alarm data, and difficulty of distinction between alarm data that occur during start and stop. Although many signal processing methods and alarm determination algorithms have been developed, it is not easy to determine valid alarm and extract the meaning data from alarm signal including background noise. To address these issues, this paper proposes a denoising autoencoder-based majority vote classification. Training and test data are prepared by acquiring alarm data from real NPP and simulation facility for data augmentation, and noisy data is reproduced by adding Gaussian noise. Using DAEs with 3, 5, 7, and 9 layers, features are extracted for each model and classified into neural networks. Finally, the results obtained from each DAE are classified by majority voting. Also, through comparison with other methods, the accuracy and the false alarm rate are compared, and the excellence of the proposed method is confirmed.
