Did you know that an artificial neural network is designed to mimic the brain?
Inspired by biological neurons in the brain, artificial neural networks are large collections of “neurons”, or nodes, connected by “synapses”, or weighted couplings, which are trained to perform certain tasks. An artificial neural network processes information using its entire network structure. The inspiration initially came from the desire to understand how the brain works.

I solemnly believe that she did not cry for real. Even if her tears were genuine, they would be more appropriate for the families of the deceased who were murdered. Paying a visit to the families would be more humanitarian than shedding tears for tangible things.
#StepDownHasina
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina had visited the Mirpur-10 metro rail station which was vandalised during the quota reform protests. Witnessing the aftermath of the destruction, the premier could not hold back her tears.

Braving it out ... and blaming the opposition.
Hasina's playbook. Will it work? The first indication of whether it will is to see what happens when the internet is restored - the country's ICT minister has said the government will likely put broadband (though not mobile) internet back online tonight. Most people in Bangladesh use mobile phones rather than computers to access social media/internet etc, but nonetheless it will be interesting to see what people being to post and its impact.
In the past the Awami League government has managed to arrest its way out of difficult situations, that is to say it arrests hundreds/thousands of opposition activists and that simply stops the opposition from organising protests - and the government may try to do this agains. So far the police are saying that 532 people have been arrested including senior leaders of opposition BNP/Jamaat. In addition, the well respected Prothom Alo newspaper reports that 61,000 people have been charged with violence. It is unlikely that these are are 61,000 "named" people, but by not naming individuals in criminal cases, but by putting a number, the police can effectively arrest anyone they want and show them arrested in relation to one of these cases. A great way of arresting anyone who the authorities see as a troublemaker or threat. This is how it has been done before. However, in the past, it was only opposition activists involved in protests and that is far from the case here - in fact it is not clear at all whether opposition activists and leaders were involved that much with the protests - and so the question is whether the police will start arresting students in large numbers. This may be far more difficult for the government to do and get away with.
⚠️ Confirmed: Live network data show #Bangladesh is now in the midst of a near-total national internet shutdown; the new measure follows earlier efforts to throttle social media and restrict mobile data services, and comes amid reports of rising deaths at student protests 📉
All the results from seven #AI projects at one event.
Save the date now, and come join us on 20th October. We are eager to listen to your feedback about our results so far, and how it would be worth continuing.

@simusafe's 6th Consortium meeting in progress right now. It's great to meet up even if it's only virtually. Talking results and future planning. @inea_eu #H2020Transport#covidsafe#research
