Providing a framework for designing electronic and virtual learning environments based on the principles and criteria of cognitive flexibility

Background and Objectives: In order to solve the problem of education in complex and unstructured domains, Spiro and his colleagues proposed the theory of cognitive flexibility, in which they advocated multiple forms of pedagogical models, ...

On the Origin of Deep Learning

This paper is a review of the evolutionary history of deep learning models. It covers from the genesis of neural networks when associationism modeling of the brain is studied, to the models that dominate the last decade of research in deep ...

A comprehensive review on ensemble deep learning: Opportunities and challenges

In machine learning, two approaches outperform traditional algorithms: ensemble learning and deep learning. The former refers to methods that integrate multiple base models in the same framework to obtain a stronger model that outperforms t...

Computational bioacoustics with deep learning: a review and roadmap

Animal vocalisations and natural soundscapes are fascinating objects of study, and contain valuable evidence about animal behaviours, populations and ecosystems. They are studied in bioacoustics and ecoacoustics, with signal processing and ...

Deep learning and computer vision will transform entomology

ABSTRACT Most animal species on Earth are insects, and recent reports suggest that their abundance is in drastic decline. Although these reports come from a wide range of insect taxa and regions, the evidence to assess the extent of the phe...

Seeing ourselves in anatomy: Embedding equity, diversity, and inclusivity to transform learning in a UK BSc curriculum.

Deep learning as a tool for ecology and evolution

Abstract Deep learning is driving recent advances behind many everyday technologies, including speech and image recognition, natural language processing and autonomous driving. It is also gaining popularity in biology, where it has been use...

Time-series forecasting with deep learning: a survey

Numerous deep learning architectures have been developed to accommodate the diversity of time-series datasets across different domains. In this article, we survey common encoder and decoder designs used in both one-step-ahead and multi-hori...
