Evaluation of Cryptocurrency Price Prediction Using LSTM and CNNs Models
Authors: Wen Ng Shi , Ling Lew Sook 
Published: December 2023

Cryptocurrencies created by Nakamoto in 2009 have gained significant interest due to their potential for high returns. However, the cryptocurrency market's unpredictability makes it challenging to forecast prices accurately. To tackle this issue, a deep learning model has been developed that utilizes Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to predict cryptocurrency prices. LSTMs, a type of recurrent neural network, are well-suited for analyzing time series data and have been successful in various prediction applications. Additionally, CNNs, primarily used for image analysis tasks, can be employed to extract relevant patterns and characteristics from input data in Bitcoin price prediction applications. This study contributes to the existing related works on cryptocurrency price prediction by exploring various predictive models and techniques, which involve a machine learning model, deep learning model, time series analysis, and as well as a hybrid model that combines deep learning methods to predict cryptocurrency prices as well as enhance the accuracy and reliability of the price predictions. To ensure accurate predictions in this study, a trustworthy dataset from investing.com was sought. The dataset, sourced from investing.com, consists of 1826 time series data samples. The dataset covers the time frame from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2022, providing data for a period of 5 years. Subsequently, pre-processing was conducted on the dataset to guarantee the quality of the input. As a result of absent values and concerns regarding the dataset's obsolescence, an alternative dataset was sourced to avoid these issues. The performance of the LSTM and CNN models was evaluated using root mean squared error (RMSE), mean squared error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and R-squared (R2). It was observed that they outperformed each other to a certain degree in short-term forecasts compared to long-term predictions, where the R2Â values for LSTM range from 0.973 to 0.986, while for CNNs, they range from 0.972 to 0.988 for 1 day, 3 days and 7 days windows length. Nevertheless, the LSTM model demonstrated the most favorable performance with the lowest error rate. The RMSE values for the LSTM model ranged from 1203.97 to 1645.36, whereas the RMSE values for the CNNs model ranged from 1107.77 to 1670.93. As a result, the LSTM model exhibited a lower error rate in RMSE and achieved the highest accuracy in R2Â compared to the CNNs model. Considering these comparative outcomes, the LSTM model can be deemed as the most suitable model for this specific case

Published: December 2023

The hand signature is a unique handwritten name or symbol that serves as a proof of identity. Due to its practicality and widespread use, hand signature is still used by financial institutions as a means of verifying and validating the identity of their customers. The emergence of the COVID-19 global pandemic has raised hygiene concerns regarding the conventional touch-based hand signature recognition system, which often requires sharing the acquisition devices among the public. This paper presents in-air hand gesture signature recognition using convolutional neural networks to address this concern. We designed a shallow multi-scale convolutional neural network using 3x3 and 5x5 kernel filter sizes to extract features on different scales. The feature maps from these two filters are then concatenated to provide more robust features, which improve the modelâ€™s performance.Â The experiment results show that the proposed architecture outperforms other architectures, which obtained the highest accuracy of 93.00%. On the other hand, our architecture consumed significantly fewer computational resources, requiring only an average of 3 minutes and 33 seconds to train. Additionally, the performance of the proposed architecture could be further enhanced by integrating it with recurrent neural networks (RNN). This integrated architecture of convolutional recurrent neural networks (C-RNN) can capture spatio-temporal features simultaneously.

Published: December 2023

Background: In Cuba, there is neither a registry of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI), nor are analysis of performance measures widely reported.Objective: A review of Cuban studies of patients with STEMI was carried out to describe quality of medical care.Methods: Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, Scopus and SciELO, as well as archives of national journals, were all searched for articles on STEMI in Cuba, from 2000 to March 2020. They were included if they reported number or percentage of application of reperfusion therapy; administration of aspirin, enalapril-captopril (ACEI) or beta-blockers; status of patients at discharge; and patient or system delay times. Finally, 17 reports with 7823 patients were included.Results: Thrombolytic therapy was administered to 3991 patients (51%), and 695 patients (8.9%) died. Only four studies, with 880 patients, presented data about prescription of ACEI, aspirin, and beta-blockers, which were administered to 381 (45.3%), 824 (93.6%), 464 (52.7%) patients, respectively. Coronary intervention was reported in 5 studies with 3422 patients, being performed in 661 (19.3%). Conclusions: Quality of care of patients with STEMI seems to be poorer than reported in similar scenarios. Thrombolytic administration is still low, although mortality decreases in this period.

Authors: ÖK Nusret , GÜRBÜZ Muhammet Erdi , KOSELER Aylin 
Published: December 2023

Objective: In our study where we examined the effect of tramadol maintenance on VAS score in geriatric patients, we observed until the post-op 60th minute. Investigation of the incidence of pain in patients who underwent knee arthroplasty in the study. We aimed to examine the effect of the *17 allele of the CYP2D6 genome on the post-op tramadol activity.
Methods: 110 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty in our service in Pamukkale University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, and 100 healthy individuals without complaints as the control group were included in this study. Tramadol 100 mg (contramal) was administered intravenously to each patient. The port-op 0-15-30-45-60.min VAS scores of the patients were recorded.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 62.36 years. While 86.4% of the patients in our study were female, this rate was 46% in the control group. We found 3.65% (n=14) *17 carriers with the presence of *17 allele in the patient (n=7) and control groups (n=7). The VAS score of the patients in the *1/*1 group at VAS post-op 0th minute was 91.07. The VAS score of the patients in the *1/*17 group was 95.0. There was no statistically significant difference between genomes (p>0.050). Similarly post-op 15., 30., 45. And 60. Min There was no statistically significant difference between the genomes per (p>0.050). We observed a statistically significant decrease in the postoperative VAS score between 0-60 minutes in both groups in time-dependent variation (p=0.000).
Conclusion: When we examine the studies with different results in the literature in which tramadol is classified as IM or EM in relation to the *17 allele, according to the results of our study: We think that the *17 allele should be evaluated as EM and NM.

Published: December 2023

Purpose: The use of biological agents, particularly anti-TNF-alpha treatments, is associated with an elevated risk of tuberculosis (TB). Hence, a comprehensive assessment of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) before biologic therapies is imperative. The objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of an online tuberculin skin test (TST)/ interferon-γ release assay (IGRA) interpreter (OI-TST/IGRA) in assessing the risk of LTBI prior to initiating biological therapies in psoriasis patients.
Materials and methods: 116 psoriasis patients who were previously evaluated for TB by a pulmonologist before being treated with a biologic agent were re-evaluated retrospectively with OI-TST/IGRA (tstin3d.com). Mean positive predictive value (PPV), mean annual risk of development of active tuberculosis (ARDATB), and mean cumulative risk of active tuberculosis (CRATB) values were calculated with OI-TST/IGRA and compared with previous results. Chi-square, Fisher-Freeman-Halton exact tests, Cohen's Kappa, and Mann-Whitney U-test were used in comparisons of groups.
Results: The PPV of the LTBI-positive group was significantly higher than the LTBI-negative group. The PPV, ARDATB and CRATB values of the TST size of >15 mm group were significantly higher than the TST size of 5-9 mm and TST size of 10-15 mm groups. The PPV, ARDATB, and CRATB values of the QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-tube test (QFT-GIT)-positive group were significantly higher than the QFT-GIT-negative group. And the same values of the chest X-ray (CXR)-positive group were significantly higher than the CXR-negative group. The PPV, ARDATB, and CRATB values were positively correlated with QFT-GIT and CXR results. In addition, the PPV was positively correlated with previous LTBI decisions and TSTs.
Conclusion: OI-TST/IGRA in which many factors are questioned and PPV, ARDATB, and CRATB values are evaluated together, may be a valuable tool for assessing the risk of active TB in psoriasis patients and preventing overdiagnosis and unnecessary prophylaxis.

Modernity and Spirituality in Malaysian Anglophone Poetry: An Interview with the late Ghulam-Sarwar Yousof
Authors: Amatulhafeez Alvi  , Ravichandran Vengadasamy  
Published: December 2023

Malaysian literature in English epitomises the move to the new world and incorporates various national and international, social, political, and cultural subjects. Ghulam-Sarwar Yousof (1939-2022), an eminent Malaysian playwright and poet, voices the spiritual vacuum these changes bring within the modern man and draws the path towards relief, solace, and comfort in the soul’s journey back to the Creator. Ghulam-Sarwar’s poetry explores various social and cultural aspects, but no endeavour to date has been taken to discuss its spiritual dimensions. Given this background, this interview with Ghulam-Sarwar Yousof outlines his perspectives on the quest for spirituality and the modern man’s hunger and restlessness to find a meaning for existence as a way to connecting with the higher Being. Using the qualitative method of semi-structured interview that contains both structured and unstructured questions, the paper sheds light on the artistic abilities Yousof shows in blending themes of self, love, nature, and society. The paper attempts to critically appreciate the interweaving of modernity with spirituality in Ghulam-Sarwar’s poetry and demonstrates how it is clothed in simple language, coupled with a sublime content, and delineated with harmonious and rhythmic intensity of his mystical experiences. It seeks to situate his mystic poetry within the realm of modern Anglophone poetry.
