For example, accurate assessment of early endosome pathology is crucial to the study of Down syndrome (DS) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as other neurological disorders with endosomal-lysosomal pathology. We describe a method for quantification of immunolabeled early endosomes within transmitter-identified basal forebrain cholinergic neurons (BFCNs) using 3-dimensional (3D) reconstructed confocal z-stacks employing Imaris software. Quantification of 3D reconstructed z-stacks was performed using two different image analysis programs ImageJ and Imaris. We found ImageJ consistently overcounted the number of early endosomes present within individual BFCNs. Difficulty separating densely packed early endosomes within defined BFCNs was observed in ImageJ compared to Imaris. Previous methods quantifying endosomal-lysosomal pathology relied on confocal microscopy images taken in a si 3D space readily achievable. Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) permits humans to interact with machines by decoding brainwaves to command for a variety of purposes. Convolutional neural networks (ConvNet) have improved the state-of-the-art of motor imagery decoding in an end-to-end approach. However, shallow ConvNets usually perform better than their deep counterparts. Thus, we aim to design a novel ConvNet that is deeper than the existing models, with an increase in terms of performances, and with optimal complexity. We develop a ConvNet based on Inception and Xception architectures that uses convolutional layers to extract temporal and spatial features. We adopt separable convolutions and depthwise convolutions to enable faster and efficient ConvNet. Then, we introduce a new block that is inspired by Inception to learn more rich features to improve the classification performances. The obtained results are comparable wit
