In this paper, deep learning framework is proposed for text sentiment classification in Arabic. Four different architectures are explored. Three are based on Deep Belief Networks and Deep Auto Encoders, where the input data model is based on the ordinary Bag-of-Words, with features based on the recently developed Arabic Sentiment Lexicon in combination with other standard lexicon features. The fourth model, based on the Recursive Auto Encoder, is proposed to tackle the lack of context handling in the first three models. The evaluation is carried out using Linguistic Data Consortium Arabic Tree Bank dataset, with benchmarking against the state of the art systems in sentiment classification with reported results on the same dataset. The results show high improvement of the fourth model over the state of the art, with the advantage of using no lexicon resources that are scarce and costly in terms of their development.

With the development of deep representation learning, the domain of reinforcement learning (RL) has become a powerful learning framework now capable of learning complex policies in high dimensional environments. This review summarises deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithms, provides a taxonomy of automated driving tasks where (D)RL methods have been employed, highlights the key challenges algorithmically as well as in terms of deployment of real world autonomous driving agents, the role of simulators in training agents, and finally methods to evaluate, test and robustifying existing solutions in RL and imitation learning.
