This study aims to develop a classification model for toddler nutritional status using a Deep Neural Network (DNN) with a multi-class classification approach. The research utilizes anthropometric data of toddlers aged 0-60 months obtained from UPTD Puskesmas Cendana Putih, North Luwu Regency, covering the period 2023–2025. The dataset consists of 156 records with features including age, weight, height, and Z-score indicators. Data preprocessing involves validation, normalization, and splitting into training and testing sets with a ratio of 85:15. The DNN model is constructed with multiple hidden layers (128, 64, and 32 neurons) and trained using the Adam optimizer and categorical cross-entropy loss function. The results show that the model achieves an accuracy of 91.67% on the testing data, indicating good performance in classifying nutritional status into categories such as undernutrition, normal, and obesity. Evaluation using confusion matrix and classification metrics (precision, recall, and F1-score) reveals that the model performs well on dominant classes but shows limitations in minority classes due to data imbalance. Overall, the proposed model demonstrates potential as a decision support tool to assist healthcare workers in identifying toddler nutritional status more accurately and efficiently.
