Accurately extracting brain tissue is a critical and primary step in brain neuroimaging research. Due to the differences in brain size and structure between humans and nonhuman primates, the performance of the existing tools for brain tissue extraction, working on macaque brain MRI, is constrained. A new transfer learning training strategy was utilized to address the limitations, such as insufficient training data and unsatisfactory model generalization ability, when deep neural networks processing the limited samples of macaque magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).

Images are powerful tools with which to convey human emotions, with different images stimulating diverse emotions. Numerous factors affect the emotions stimulated by the image, and many researchers have previously focused on low-level features such as color, texture and so on. Inspired by the successful use of deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) in the visual recognition field, we used a data augmentation method for small data sets to gain the sufficient number of the training dataset.
