Abstract

An LSTM-based forecasting model was implemented to identify potential changes in risk levels over time. Technical indicators such as volatility, standard deviation, and moving averages were used to analyze fluctuations in behavioral patterns. The findings indicate significant relationships between changes in economic indicators and their impact on communities, highlighting the importance of early intervention strategies and policy measures.
