Description: Statistical approaches to early vision processes need a huge amount of computing power. These algorithms can usually be implemented on parallel computing structures. With the Cellular Neural Networks [9] (CNN), a new image processing tool is coming into consideration. Its VLSI implementation takes place on a single analog chip containing several thousands (recently about 10,000 to ...

This paper reports the performances of shallow word-level convolutional neural networks (CNN), our earlier work (2015) [3, 4], on the eight datasets with relatively large training data that were used for testing the very deep characterlevel CNN in Conneau et al. (2016) [1]. Our findings are as follows. The shallow word-level CNNs achieve better error rates than the error rates reported in [1] t...

BACKGROUND Cell polarity genes including Crumbs (Crb) and Par complexes are essential for controlling photoreceptor morphogenesis. Among the Crb and Par complexes, Bazooka (Baz, Par-3 homolog) acts as a nodal component for other cell polarity proteins. Therefore, finding other genes interacting with Baz will help us to understand the cell polarity genes' role in photoreceptor morphogenesis. M...

By means of the delta operator, a new type of CNN, the (δ,c)-CNN, is introduced. It is a superclass of continuoustime (CT) and discrete-time (DT) CNNs with any saturation-, high-gain-, or hardlimiting sign-nonlinearity. It is shown that the (δ,c)-CNN allows continuous transition between different types of nonlinearities and between CTand DT-CNNs, providing a unifying framework for CNN theory. I...
