Nowadays, deep learning has been widely used. In natural language learning, the analysis of complex semantics has been achieved because of its high degree of flexibility. The deceptive opinions detection is an important application area in deep learning model, and related mechanisms have been given attention and researched. On-line opinions are quite short, varied types and content. In order to effectively identify deceptive opinions, we need to comprehensively study the characteristics of deceptive opinions, and explore novel characteristics besides the textual semantics and emotional polarity that have been widely used in text analysis. The detection mechanism based on deep learning has better self-adaptability and can effectively identify all kinds of deceptive opinions. In this paper, we optimize the convolution neural network model by embedding the word order characteristics in its convolution layer and pooling layer, which makes convolution neural network more suitable for various text classification and deceptive opinions detection. The TensorFlow-based experiments demonstrate that the detection mechanism proposed in this paper achieve more accurate deceptive opinion detection results.

Diagnosis of a clinical condition is a challenging task, which often requires significant medical investigation. Previous work related to diagnostic inferencing problems mostly consider multivariate observational data (e.g. physiological signals, lab tests etc.). In contrast, we explore the problem using free-text medical notes recorded in an electronic health record (EHR). Complex tasks like these can benefit from structured knowledge bases, but those are not scalable. We instead exploit raw text from Wikipedia as a knowledge source. Memory networks have been demonstrated to be effective in tasks which require comprehension of free-form text. They use the final iteration of the learned representation to predict probable classes. We introduce condensed memory neural networks (C-MemNNs), a novel model with iterative condensation of memory representations that preserves the hierarchy of features in the memory. Experiments on the MIMIC-III dataset show that the proposed model outperforms other variants of memory networks to predict the most probable diagnoses given a complex clinical scenario.
