Vanilla convolutional neural networks are known to provide superior performance not only in image recognition tasks but also in natural language processing and time series analysis. One of the strengths of convolutional layers is the ability to learn features about spatial relations in the input domain using various pa…

We consider the task of detecting regulatory elements in the human genome directly from raw DNA. Past work has focused on small snippets of DNA, making it difficult to model long-distance dependencies that arise from DNA's 3-dimensional conformation. In order to study long-distance dependencies, we develop and release …

Different types of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been applied to detect cancerous lung nodules from computed tomography (CT) scans. However, the size of a nodule is very diverse and can range anywhere between 3 and 30 millimeters. The high variation of nodule sizes makes classifying them a difficult and cha…

There are many award-winning pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which have a common phenomenon of increasing depth in convolutional layers. However, I inspect on VGG network, which is one of the famous model submitted to ILSVRC-2014, to show that slight modification in the basic architecture can enhance th…

Despite their impressive performance in many tasks, deep neural networks often struggle at relational reasoning. This has recently been remedied with the introduction of a plug-in relational module that considers relations between pairs of objects. Unfortunately, this is combinatorially expensive. In this extended abst…

We present an updated version of the VESICLE-CNN algorithm presented by Roncal et al. (2014). The original implementation makes use of a patch-based approach. This methodology is known to be slow due to repeated computations. We update this implementation to be fully convolutional through the use of dilated convolution…

This paper describes a family of pseudo-Anosov braids with small dilatation. The smallest dilatations occurring for braids with 3, 4 and 5 strands appear in this family. A pseudo-Anosov braid with 2g+1 strands determines a hyperelliptic mapping class with the same dilatation on a genus-g surface. Penner showed that log…

For any nonorientable closed surface, we determine the minimal dilatation among pseudo-Anosov mapping classes arising from Penner's construction. We deduce that the sequence of minimal Penner dilatations has exactly two accumulation points, in contrast to the case of orientable surfaces where there is only one accumula…

This paper concerns a family of pseudo-Anosov braids with dilatations arbitrarily close to one. The associated graph maps and train tracks have stable "star-like" shapes, and the characteristic polynomials of their transition matrices form Salem-Boyd sequences. These examples show that the logarithms of least dilatatio…
