The Foreshadowing of Women’s Tragic Fate: An Analysis of Snow Flower and the Secret Fan from the Perspective of Space Theory
No full textSnow Flower and the Secret Fan, written by a Chinese-American writer Lisa See, swept the United States as soon as it was published, becoming another masterpiece introducing Chinese elements into Chinese-American literature. In the book, Lisa See gives a detailed description of the fate of Lily and Snow Flower that spans decades. By applying Edward Soja’s theory of “Thirdspace”, different kinds of spaces in the novel and women’s survival crisis and miserable situation are analyzed. We can see that Lisa See places deep sympathy on the fate of women in the male-centered society and tries to make a profound analysis of women’s own weaknesses, thus arousing our concern and reflection on the tragic fate of women at that time

Prediction of Tempe Raw Material Needs for Home Industry Using Tsukamoto Fuzzy Logic Algorithm
No full textThe home tempeh industry is faced with the challenge of accurately predicting raw material needs. Implementing an effective prediction system can help estimate the amount of tempeh production in the future, so as to avoid stock shortages of raw materials. In addition, when tempeh producers have accurate predictions, they can manage soybean stocks better, especially when there is a stock shortage, so that production is not affected by rising soybean prices. This research aims to develop a Tsukamoto Fuzzy Logic based prediction system to overcome this problem. Research methods include collecting historical production data, designing fuzzy models, and system testing. Interim results show that the developed system is able to increase prediction accuracy by up to 95%, which in turn can reduce production costs and minimize waste of raw materials
A Descriptive Study on Filipino Language Politeness in High School Students’ Interaction
No full textLanguage politeness is vital in Philippine communication, reflecting hierarchical social structures and cultural values. This study explores (1) the politeness strategies students use in school contexts and (2) differences in strategies when interacting with male versus female peers. High school students speaking Binisayang Surigaonon, Cebuano, Butuanon, Bisaya, and Kamayo demonstrate an awareness of Filipino norms, favoring indirect language to show respect, avoid conflict, and maintain harmony. Common markers include “please,” compliments, and formal titles, with minimal gender differences, indicating shared respect-based communication. Educators are encouraged to promote balanced language use by combining direct and indirect approaches, incorporating role-playing and interactive activities to help students adapt politeness strategies across contexts. This adaptability supports students’ intercultural communication skills and aligns with cultural expectations, fostering social and academic growth in multilingual settings

Enhancing Lung and Breast Cancer Screening with Advanced AI and Image Processing Techniques
No full textThis research investigates the application of CNNs for diagnostics improvements in lung and breast cancers based on AI image classification approaches. Using the datasets with 15,000 images describing lung cancer and 10,000 images describing cases of breast cancer, the models showed high performance: 90% for lung cancer and 99% for breast cancer classification. The descriptive analysis pointed out different features in imaging, such as dense tissue structure and irregular cell patterns; the models successfully identified these. The findings underlined the vital role that AI could play in assisting radiologists by delivering preliminary analysis, triaging high-risk cases, and leading to early cancer detection. Essential challenges were highlighted: ethical considerations concerning patients\u27 privacy and AI algorithms\u27 transparency. The limitation of the dataset diversity resulted in the conclusion that only broader data can ensure good generalization in various clinical settings. They recommended integrating the AI tool with clinical workflow and also called for training radiologists for effectiveness. Future research directions include real-time imaging and patient data integration for comprehensive diagnostic support and multi-modal approaches that combine imaging with genomics for more precise predictions. This leads to a more personalized cancer diagnosis and treatment plan, thus ultimately improving the results of the patients. This research, therefore, underlines the transformative capabilities of AI and image processing in modernizing cancer screening and diagnostics toward more accurate and efficient healthcare practices
