Classification of radiological patterns of tuberculosis with a Convolutional neural network in x-ray images
Authors: Espinosa Adrian Trueba , Sanchez -Arrazola Jessica , Cervantes Jair , Garcia-Lamont Farid , Ruiz Castilla José Sergio
Published: July 2024

In this paper we propose the classification of radiological patterns with the presence of tuberculosis in X-ray images, it was observed that two to six patterns (consolidation, fibrosis, opacity, opacity, pleural, nodules and cavitations) are present in the radiographs of the patients. It is important to mention that species specialists consider the type of TB pattern in order to provide appropriate treatment. It should be noted that not all medical centres have specialists who can immediately interpret radiological patterns. Considering the above, the aim is to classify patterns by means of a convolutional neural network to help make a more accurate diagnosis on X-rays, so that doctors can recommend immediate treatment and thus avoid infecting more people. For the classification of tuberculosis patterns, a proprietary convolutional neural network (CNN) was proposed and compared against the VGG16, InceptionV3 and ResNet-50 architectures, which were selected based on the results of other radiograph classification research [1]–[3] . The results obtained for the Macro-averange AUC-SVM metric for the proposed architecture and InceptionV3 were 0.80, and for VGG16 it was 0.75, and for the ResNet-50 network it was 0.79. The proposed architecture has better classification results, as does InceptionV3.
BİREYLERİN FİNANSAL YATIRIM KARARLARI VE TOPLUMSAL HAFIZA İLİŞKİSİ: DAVRANIŞSAL KARAR YANLILIKLARI PERSPEKTİFİNDEN DEĞERLENDİRME
Authors: Ertuğrul Ayşenur , Kılıç Esra
Published: July 2024

Davranışsal iktisat kavramı, ortaya atıldığından beri birçok çalışmada konu olarak çalışılmakta ve her geçen gün üzerine daha fazla çalışmalar yapılmaktadır. Bireylerin belirsizlik ortamında karar verme anlarında rasyonel bir birey gibi davranamadığını savunan davranışsal iktisat, bilişsel yanlılıklar üzerinden karar alma davranışlarının etkilendiğini bu yüzden bireylerin rasyonel davranamadığını öne sürmektedir. İnsan doğası gereği rasyonellik kavramına uzak kalan bireyler karar alma durumlarında bazı önyargılarda bulunarak hata yapabilmektedirler.
Nitekim rasyonel karar alamayan bireylerin bir tetikleyicisi olmalı ki oda bu çalışma ile birlikte “toplumsal hafıza” kavramının bilişsel yanlılıklar ile bağlantılı olabileceği öne sürülmektedir. Bireylerde belirsizlik dönemlerinde literatürde geçen aşina olma önyargısı, kayıptan kaçınma, doğrulama önyargısı, sürü davranışı, pişmanlıktan kaçınma, aşırı iyimserlik çerçeveleme önyargısı gibi yanlılıkların karar alma davranışında etkili olduğu ve Daniel Kahneman tarafından öne sürülen hafıza çalışmaları ile ilişkili olabileceğine değinilmektedir. Ancak literatürde toplumsal hafıza ve davranışsal iktisat kavramı ile ilgili net bir çalışma yapılmamış olsa da ilişkili olabilecek çalışmalar örneklendirilmiş ve literatüre katkı sağlayacağını düşündüğümüz bu çalışma ile ileriye dönük çalışmalar için de öneriler de bulunulmuştur
Mental Health Crisis in the Digital Era: The Role of Mass Media in Increasing Awareness and Access to Services
Authors: Rahmah St. , Susilo Catur Budi , Ermawan Budi
Published: July 2024

The development of technology and mass media has had an impact on people's mental well-being. One of them is the increasing prevalence of mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety, which are directly related to social media use, work pressure, and the social isolation that results from digital life. The aim of this research is to examine the role of mass media in increasing awareness and access to mental health services. The research method used is descriptive analysis with a qualitative approach, involving surveys and interviews with respondents representing various age groups and social backgrounds. Data were collected to evaluate the extent to which mass media provide accurate and educational information about mental health and facilitate access to appropriate support services. The research results show that mass media has an important role in increasing public awareness about mental health issues. Articles, television programs and online campaigns have succeeded in turning negative stigma into a broader understanding of mental health. In addition, the media also plays a role in promoting available mental health services, such as counseling and therapy, thereby increasing accessibility for individuals who need them. The conclusion of this research confirms that mass media has great potential to be an effective tool in overcoming the mental health crisis in the digital era. By providing appropriate and educational information and facilitating access to mental health services, mass media can act as an agent of positive change in an effort to improve people's mental well-being. Therefore, cooperation between the government, health institutions and mass media is very important to create a supportive environment for individuals who experience mental health problems in this digital era.

Authors: Donda Ana Carolina , Parreira Gislaine Leão , Gadêlha José Eduardo Ferreira da Silva , Barros Ludmila Santos , Junqueira Marina Porto Ferreira , Ferreira Rogério Alves
Published: July 2024

O estudo analisa a incidência da dengue na cidade de Rio Verde, Goiás, entre os anos de 2016 e 2023, com foco nas variações anuais de casos e óbitos, e nas disparidades entre os bairros. A dengue, uma doença viral transmitida pelo mosquito Aedes aegypti, representa um sério problema de saúde pública, especialmente em regiões tropicais. Os dados revelam que 2022 foi o ano com maior incidência de casos, totalizando 9318, enquanto 2021 apresentou a menor incidência, com 877 casos. O bairro Gameleira lidera com 1302 notificações, seguido por Rio Verde Centro e Promissão, com 941 e 844 notificações respectivamente. A maior densidade populacional no bairro Rio Verde Centro e a falta de conscientização no bairro Promissão contribuem para esses números elevados. A análise dos dados de letalidade sugere variações nas condições de manejo clínico e eficácia das medidas de controle ao longo dos anos. O estudo enfatiza a necessidade de estratégias contínuas e adaptativas de vigilância epidemiológica, controle de vetores e educação pública para enfrentar a dengue de maneira eficaz e sustentável. Recomenda-se uma abordagem multidisciplinar que envolva saúde pública, planejamento urbano e gestão ambiental.

As lesões microvasculares da retina estão nas complicações mais comuns entre pacientes diabéticos, principalmente naqueles que apresentam uma grande variabilidade glicêmica, sendo uma das causas mais frequentes de cegueira adquirida. Devido ao aumento gradual do número de diabéticos e, por consequência, do número de indivíduos com retinopatia diabética, sua análise é essencial. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a relação da variabilidade glicêmica com alterações microvasculares da retina em pacientes diabéticos usuários do dispositivo Libre. Foram convidados indivíduos que apresentavam Diabetes Mellitus (DM) tipo 1 ou 2, usuários do sensor de glicemia tecidual (FreeStyle Libre). Para a análise do perfil glicêmico, os voluntários compartilharam seus dados através de gráficos fornecido pelo aplicativo LibreView. Foram compartilhados 5 gráficos com os valores referentes a cada 3 meses dos dados glicêmicos, de abril de 2022 até julho de 2023. Para a avaliação de lesões microvasculares e classificação da retinopatia diabética, os voluntários foram submetidos a 2 exames de aferição da acuidade visual, retinografia através da biomicroscopia e utilizando um retinógrafo portátil digital. Todos os voluntários apresentaram padrão de acuidade visual preconizado normal (20-20) de acordo com a escala de Snellen e ausência de sinais de retinopatia. A maioria dos voluntários (85,71%) apresentou uma variabilidade glicêmica entre (39,96- 42,42%), pouco acima dos níveis desejados (≤ 36%), condição provavelmente mantida devido a biomonitorização, contribuindo para a ausência de retinopatia diabética. Assim, conclui-se que a variabilidade glicêmica apresentada pelos voluntários no período analisado não levou a alterações microvasculares da retina.

Pretendemos lançar um olhar sobre a desigualdade social na contemporaneidade pelas lentes da perspectiva marxista e marxiana. Também busca elucidar o conceito a partir de outros autores que, de forma indireta contribuíram conceitualmente para se elaborar uma concepção do que é a desigualdade social, propondo-se, além das teorizações, reflexões na contemporaneidade e, busca de saídas para o problema que aflige uma parcela significativa da sociedade – a classe trabalhadora. Pretendeu-se elaborar uma origem da desigualdade social baseando-se em teorias dos pensadores clássicos da política como, Maquiavel, Hobbes, Locke e Rousseau, seguindo com Marx e Weber, sendo estes dois últimos, os autores que se dedicaram ao tema na tentativa de definir as bases conceituais da desigualdade social a partir da estratificação social. Enquanto Marx a vê a partir do antagonismo de classe – burguesia e proletariado -, portanto, dimensão econômica, Weber foca no indivíduo imbuído das dimensões econômica, social e política – a pessoa é responsável por sua posição na sociedade. Fez-se alguns apontamentos das políticas geradoras da desigualdade social, especialmente no Brasil do primeiro quarto do século 21.
The urgency of implementation SAK EP in replacing SAK ETAP in savings and loan cooperatives
Authors: Asmara Rina Yuliastuty , Kamil Islamiah , Ariani Meiliyah
Published: July 2024

Savings and Loans Cooperatives (KSP) play an important role in the community’s economy, especially in providing financial access to their members. However, in man- aging their finances, many KSPs still use the Entity Without Public Accountability Financial Accounting System (SAK ETAP). This Community Service aims to ana- lyze the urgency of implementing Financial Accounting Standards for Fund Manage- ment Entities (SAK EP) as a replacement for SAK ETAP in the KSP context. The community service method is carried out through socialization, training and direct assistance to KSP administrators and members in implementing SAK EP. Com- munity Service Results show that the implementation of SAK EP in KSP provides significant benefits, including increased transparency, accountability and reliability of financial information. The use of SAK EP also helps KSP in meeting regulatory requirements and increasing the trust of members and external parties such as banks and the government. Apart from that, this community service also strengthens un- derstanding and accounting skills for KSP administrators and members, which in turn can improve the quality of financial management and overall KSP business growth. This community service emphasizes the urgency of implementing SAK EP  in replacing SAK ETAP in KSP as an important step towards better financial gov- ernance, which has a positive impact on the economic growth of society as a whole.

Abstract. The Use of Tombstone Statues: Pre-Islamic Cultural Influence in Islamic Cemetery Complexes in The Bugis Ethnic Region, South Sulawesi. Unlike several previous studies that focused on the discovery and distribution of tombstone statues in the Makassar ethnic region, this research specifically examines the  influence  of  pre-Islamic  culture  on  the  use  of  tombstone statues  in  the  Bugis  ethnic  area,  including  Barru,  Bone,  Pinrang,  Sidrap,  Enrekang,  and  East  Luwu Regencies. The study was conducted with the desk study method, reviewing various literature sources that  document  the  presence  of  tombstone  statues  in  the  Bugis  ethnic  region,  including  the  research reports  of  Archaeological  Center  (Balai  Arkeologi),  scientific  articles,  books,  theses,  dissertations, technical  study  reports,  conservation,  and  zoning  report  from  the  Cultural  Heritage  Preservation Office  (Balai  Pelestarian  Cagar  Budaya),  as well as other online reference sources. This research reveals that the use of these tombstones was suspected to be the influence of pre-Islamic culture, which had developed strongly in the previous period. This is evidenced by the discovery of megalithic statues in  several  areas  in  South  Sulawesi  and  its  neighboring  province  in  Central  Sulawesi,  which functioned as ceremonial media and representations of ancestral spirits.

Introduction: The choice of treatment of vestibular schwannoma (VS) depends on several factors, including the tumor size, the patient’s age and overall health, and the presence and severity of symptoms.Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of intentional subtotal resection (STR) of tumor followed by Gamma Knife surgery (GKS) in patients with larger VS (Koos 3 and 4).Materials and methods: The retrospective analysis was performed on 18 patients. Data of VS volumes measured in MRI, the facial nerve function assessed in the House-Brackmann scoring system (HB), and the results of audiological examination expressed on the Gardner-Robertson scale (GR) were collected preoperatively, postoperatively, and post-GKS.Results: Preoperatively, the main symptom was hearing loss observed in 13 out of 18 patients. The facial nerve function was assessed as HB 1 in 16, whereas HB 2 in 2 patients. The mean volume of the tumor in the initial MRI amounted to 16.81 cm3 . Postoperatively, the facial nerve was assessed as HB 1 or 2 in 16, whereas HB 3 in 2 patients. Serviceable hearing was presented by only 4 persons. The Mean diameter of the tumor after subtotal surgery amounted to 3.16 cm3 , 1.83 cm3 after GKS, and 1.58 cm3 at the last follow-up. The facial nerve function and hearing level remained the same as before GKS in all patients.Conclusions: STR followed by GKS can be a safe and effective method of treatment of large VS concerning the functional outcome of the facial nerve and the tumor volume growth control.

Beyond Reason and Personal Integrity: Toward a Pedagogy of Coercive Restraint
Authors: Baptiste Ian
Published: July 2024

This article challenges a popular assumption in adult education that all
forms of coercion are evil; it begins to articulate a pedagogy of coercive
restraint for use when faced with perpetrators of social injustices. The
author clarifies the need for such a pedagogy based on critiques of adult
education theories and practices. Forms and levels of restraint
appropriate to different levels of conflict are described. The pedagogy
of coercion is then situated within the broader pedagogy of
mobilization, with suggestions for development of the ideas.

Résumé

Cet article remet en question la croyance populaire voulant que toute
forme de coercition soit nécessairement répréhensible. On y articule
une pédagogie de la contrainte physique à utiliser dans les cas
d'injustice sociale. En se fondant sur les critiques formulées à l'égard
de la théorie et la pratique de l'éducation des adultes, l'auteur soutient
qu'une telle pédagogie repond à un besoin. Il décrit les formes et les
degrés de contrainte physique qui sont appropriés en présence de
différents types de conflits. Le texte situe la pédagogie de la coercition
dans le contexte élargi de la pédagogie de la mobilisation, et contribue
quelques idées pour sa mise en pratique.
Unmasking Power: Foucault and Adult Learning
Authors: Brookfield Stephen
Published: July 2024

Adult educators talk emphatically of empowerment as a process through
which adult learners find their voices and develop the self-confidence to
take control of their lives. Empowering adults has come to signify what
is distinctive and admirable about the field. Michel Foucault, the
French social theorist, developed an analysis of productive power coexisting
to different degrees as repression and liberation. Foucault
maintains that, in modern society, sovereign power (exercised from
above by a clearly discernible authority) has been replaced by
disciplinary power (exercised by people on themselves and others in
their lives). An appreciation of Foucault's ideas can help adult
educators avoid a naive understanding of how power manifests itself in
their daily practices—particularly the false face of apparently
beneficient power exercised to help adult learners realize their full
potential.

Résumé

Les éducateurs d'adultes mettent de l'avant l'empowerment en tant que
processus permettant aux apprenants de trouver leurs voix et de
développer leur confiance en soi en vue de prendre le contrôle de leurs
vies. L'empowerment des adultes en est arrivé à référer à ce qui est
distinctif et admirable dans le domaine. Michel Foucault a élaboré une
analyse du pouvoir de production qui co-existe à differents degrés
comme force de répression et de libération. Foucault soutient que dans
la société moderne le pouvoir souverain (celui exerce d'en haul par une
autorité identifiable) a été remplacé par un pouvoir disciplinaire
(exercé par les gens sur eux-mêmes, sur leur vie et sur celles d'autres
personnes dans leur entourage). Un examen des vues de Foucault
pourrait aider les éducateurs d'adultes à dépasser une compréhension
naive de la manière dont le pouvoir se manifeste dans leurs activités
courantes, particulièrement l'image erronée du pouvoir apparemment
bénéfique exercé dans le but d'aider les apprenants adultes à réaliser
leur plein potentiel.
Women's Transitions from Welfare: "Where Does That Leave Us? Employable or in the Pit?"
Authors: Andruske Cynthia Lee
Published: July 2024

In a globalized market training, education, and credentials are
important as individuals compete for spaces in the workplace. For
some, like single mothers on welfare, acquisition of training and
credentials becomes a long, arduous, circuitous "walk" as they attempt
to enter the labour force. This article examines how government policies
and labour market demands influence women's transitions from
welfare, explores the experiences of women in a case study, and
analyzes the role that using brainstorming, popular education
techniques, and content in a pre-employment upgrading program had
on women's educational and employment needs as they attempted to
leave welfare.

Résumé

Dans un marché de formation désormais mondial, l'éducation et les
références d'emploi sont essentielles lorsqu'on est en compétition pour
une place dans le marché du travail. Pour certains, comme les mères
célibataires vivant de l'aide sociale, acquérir de la formation et avoir
des références devient un processus long, ardu, voire circulaire,
lorsqu'ils cherchent à s'intégrer au marché du travail. À travers une
étude de cas, cet article examine comment les politiques
gouvernementales et les exigences du marché de l'emploi influencent
l'issue de la démarche desfemmes qui tentent de sortir de l'aide sociale.
Il explore des expériences de femmes et analyse le rôle de l'utilisation
du remue-méninge et des techniques et des contenus d'éducation
populaire dans un programme de pré-emploi visant à combler les
besoins éducatifs de ces femmes à mesure qu'elles tentent de quitter
l'aide sociale.
L'@lphabétisation et les technologies de l'information à l'aube du nouveau millénaire: nouvelle conception, nouvelles perspectives
Authors: Karsenti Thierry
Published: July 2024

Résumé

Ce texte à caractère théorique traite d'abord d'une nouvelle conception
de l'@lphabétisation qui intègre les technologies de l'information et de
la communication (TIC). Nous présentons ensuite un bref survol de la
situation de l'alphabétisation au Québec et au Canada afin de montrer
qu'il s'agit bien d'un problème actuel qui sévit, en silence, au coeur
même des sociétés dites «développées». Nous abordons ensuite
l'analphabétisme informatique, un nouveau problème social. Puis, nous
teutons d'illustrer des avantages incontestables inhérents à une
intégration pédagogique efficiente des technologies : une motivation et
un apprentissage accrus pour les apprenants; des impacts positifs
importants sur les apprentissages en lecture, en écriture, en calcul et en
utilisation des technologies.

This text, of a theoretical nature, first presents a new conception of
literacy (called l'@phabetisation) which integrates information and
communication technologies (ICT). Then, an overview is given of the
context of literacy in Quebec and in Canada, in order to show that
illiteracy is indeed a contemporary problem that festers in silence at the
heart of so-called developed countries. Next, technological illiteracy is
examined as a new social challenge. Following this, the undeniable
advantages inherent in the efficient pedagogical integration of
technologies are illustrated: increased motivation and learning for the
students; significant positive effects on learning in terms of reading,
writing, numeracy, and the use of technologies.
Myth and Misguided Faith? Women's Experiences in a Literacy Program
Authors: Rumann Susan Marie , Chávez Chávez Rudolfo
Published: July 2024

This article portrays the contextualized experiences of five women of
Mexican American heritage within a literacy program. In-depth
interviewing and shadowing within an ethnographic, feminist
perspective were used to collect their stories. From inductive analysis of
these data a structure of myth framework emerged, which was then used
to examine the women's stones of their il/literacy journey, the terrains

Authors: Lini Priscila , Soares André Luis Ramos , Demamann Maria da Gloria Tavares
Published: July 2024

This article proposes a case study of analysis in forensic anthropology and bone pathology in a human skull deposited at the Dental Sculpture Laboratory, human anatomy sector of the Institute of Biosciences, Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul, and possible interpretations for these alterations. In addition to diagnostic hypotheses, we intend to present possible comorbidities, as well as estimates of biological sex, approximation of age and other elements that can be determined through human identification criteria in forensic anthropology. The methodology used consisted of qualitative analysis of completely skeletonized bone material, in three criteria – sex, age and ancestral affinity – as well as a survey of the possible bone pathology, its etiology and consequences on the individual's health while still alive. The results point to the presence of a debilitating disease of inflammatory origin and several secondary problems resulting from this condition.

The present study focuses on gnathostomiasis, a parasitic disease caused by the nematode gnathostoma that affects both humans and other animals, with a prevalence of 0,14 %. The aim of the study is to analyze the main research related to gnathostomiasis, its diagnosis and treatment. To achieve this objective, a systematic review of clinical cases, observational and retrospective studies of the disease was carried out, following the PRISMA methodology. The literature search, conducted between 2018 and 2022 in the Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, Redalyc and Dialnet databases, resulted in the identification of five articles relevant and pertinent to the topic. The study findings indicate that gnathostomiasis, on the rise in Latin America and Asia, is transmitted mainly through the consumption of raw fish infected with Gnathostoma larvae. Although preventive measures and treatments, such as albendazole, are available, their efficacy is limited, and it is difficult to implement changes in dietary habits. Therefore, more research is needed to better understand the disease, develop more effective diagnostics and treatments, and raise awareness among physicians of its increasing global prevalence

Electrical burns are one of the most drastic traumas to which an individual can be exposed; being able to directly or indirectly compromise almost all tissues of the human body. They cause more than 3 000 admissions to specialized burn units in the United States. Up to 40 % of serious electrical injuries are fatal, resulting in approximately 1000 deaths per year.Its incidence depends on the type of exposure to electricity: low voltage, due to contact with electrical cables or plugs. High voltage, due to occupational exposures and power lines while climbing trees or poles. These voltages are more likely to cause injuries to deep tissues and internal organs compared to low voltage injuries and also the degree of body surface area burned.Its approach constitutes a challenge, since the risks of visceral involvement are added to the morbidity and mortality inherent to the burn. Early treatment of intra-abdominal complications allows a more conservative approach, reducing ostomies and their associated comorbidity. It is preferable to manage the abdominal defect by preserving the tissues themselves and restoring the midline. In our case, it was feasible to perform a primary closure of the abdominal wall. Your treatment will depend on factors such as: the amount of tissue lost, intra-abdominal contamination, general condition, and factors such as: physical resources and experience of the hospital. Mortality from burns ranges between 3 and 55 %, those with the highest risk of death are those at extreme ages, higher degrees of burns, injuries associated with inhalation, and injuries in patients with comorbidities

The evaluation of learning results is a strategy that generates inputs for curricular feedback and continuous improvement of the academic management of vocational training programs. On the one hand, it contributes to determining the level of achievement of the graduation profile that students reach according to the progress of the study plan and, on the other, it allows identifying the level of performance of the teachers who participate during the design and application processes of the evaluation instruments. This article shows the application of three performance indicators: efficiency, quality and estimation, to identify the potential of teachers according to the role they must assume in an evaluation process. The study was carried out based on the learning results evaluation methodology developed by the Technical University of Cotopaxi in which 224 teachers participated, of which 143 met acceptable parameters of efficiency, quality and estimation, allowing 67 to be categorized as developers. of items, 56 as technical reviewers and 20 as technical heads

The relevance of the study of the chosen topic is conditioned by the fact that a wide panorama of compositions in the field of vocal and choral music appears, reflecting the modern process of reviving the national culture of Ukraine. The variety of their content, concepts, and structures contributes to the populariztion of the spiritual and creative heritage of the Ukrainian people, which requires special research in modern conditions. The purpose of the study is to identify genre features and stylistic patterns that characteriz the works of the vocal and choral branch of musical art. In the course of the study, methods of analysis, comparison, and synthesis were used. As a result, genre models of vocal and choral compositions of small (painting; prayer; monologue; song; arrangement) and large forms (cantata, choral concert suite, vocal and instrumental cycle, choral cycle) were discovered. The leading stylistic components of modern vocal and choral compositions were established, their content was emphasizd (synthesis of elements of archaic play (action); folk songs; spiritual chant and modal, classical tonal, chromatic sound systems in small forms; a unique author’s idea, processing of primary sources from folk song art and church services based on a wide range of different fret and technical systems in large forms). The study's conclusions confirm the utilization of folk, church, and academic traditions, both past and present, alongside structural, compositional, technical, intonational, and rhythmic elements from various musical genres and cultures in vocal and choral compositions of the first quarter of the 21st century

Published: July 2024

Digital currencies, such as Bitcoin (BTC), Litecoin (LTC), Ethereum (ETH), Stellar (XLM) and Tether (USDT), have been attracting the interest of investors and speculators. Over the last several years, the exponential growth in the value of digital currency has captured the interest of many individuals who see it as an attractive investment opportunity. After all, investors must deal with the expected volatility of Bitcoin prices as part of their investments. The future development of cryptocurrency can be challenging to forecast because of the extreme unpredictability and disorder of external events. In this research, fuzzy models for cryptocurrency price forecasting using a level set-based Fuzzy Clustering Based on Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (FC-MCDM). Compared to linguistic and functional fuzzy clustering, the construction and processing of fuzzy rules in a multi-criteria decision-making-based collection set differ. Based on level sets, the model produces the weighted average of the functions that active fuzzy rules provide as output. In the model's outputs, the activation levels of the fuzzy rules are represented directly by the output functions. Computational experiments are carried out to test the efficacy of the level-set approach for one-step-ahead prediction of cryptocurrency closing prices. Meanwhile, level set-based fuzzy clustering outperforms the other methods when the direction of price change evaluates performance
