Several hardware Trojan (HT) detection techniques are available today to ensure the security of hardware systems. However, the existing pre-silicon HT detection techniques have problems such as difficulties in capturing HT path features and poor applicability. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a gate-level HT detection scheme based on a deep learning model. We parse the circuit gate-level netlist and develop an algorithm to extract circuit path sentences based on the signal propagation rule. Path sentences consisting of gate names are extracted as experimental datasets. We apply the theory of natural language processing (NLP) to the task of HT detection and use three neural networks to filter the length of path sentences. Then, based on the deep learning model text convolutional neural network (TextCNN), we propose PS-TextCNN for HT detection. Our approach is verified on seven benchmark circuits of the RS232-series and eight benchmark circuits of the s-series. We achieve an average true positive rate (TPR) of 88.9%. The TPR of the RS232-series reaches a high score of 99.5%. The TPR of the s-series is 79.5%, which is significantly higher than that of the existing gate-level HT detection techniques.

Deep neural network has made surprising achievements in natural language processing, image pattern classification recognition, and other domains in the last few years. It is still tough to apply to hardware-constrained or mobile equipment because of the huge number of parameters, high storage as well as computing costs. In this paper, a new sparse iteration neural network architecture is proposed. First, the pruning method is used to compress the model size and make the network sparse. Then the architecture is iterated on the sparse network model, and the network performance is improved without adding additional parameters. Finally, the hybrid deep learning model was carried out on CV tasks and NLP tasks on ANN, CNN, and Transformer. Compared with the sparse network architecture, we finally found that the accuracy of the MINST, CIFAR10, PASCAL VOC 2012, and SQuAD datasets is improved by 0.47%, 0.64%, 3.75%, and 15.06%, respectively.

In recent years, deep learning has revolutionized natural language processing (NLP) by enabling the development of models that can learn complex representations of language data, leading to significant improvements in performance across a wide range of NLP tasks. Deep learning models for NLP typically use large amounts of data to train deep neural networks, allowing them to learn the patterns and relationships in language data. This is in contrast to traditional NLP approaches, which rely on hand-engineered features and rules to perform NLP tasks. The ability of deep neural networks to learn hierarchical representations of language data, handle variable-length input sequences, and perform well on large datasets makes them well-suited for NLP applications. Driven by the exponential growth of textual data and the increasing demand for condensed, coherent, and informative summaries, text summarization has been a critical research area in the field of NLP. Applying deep learning to text summarization refers to the use of deep neural networks to perform text summarization tasks. In this survey, we begin with a review of fashionable text summarization tasks in recent years, including extractive, abstractive, multi-document, and so on. Next, we discuss most deep learning-based models and their experimental results on these tasks. The paper also covers datasets and data representation for summarization tasks. Finally, we delve into the opportunities and challenges associated with summarization tasks and their corresponding methodologies, aiming to inspire future research efforts to advance the field further. A goal of our survey is to explain how these methods differ in their requirements as understanding them is essential for choosing a technique suited for a specific setting. This survey aims to provide a comprehensive review of existing techniques, evaluation methodologies, and practical applications of automatic text summarization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
