Abstract

Early detection of toddler nutritional status is an important step in preventing the long-term effects of stunting. However, manual assessments are often inefficient and inconsistent, requiring a more accurate computational approach. This study aims to improve the performance of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) model in classifying the nutritional status of toddlers through hyperparameter optimization using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Genetic Algorithm (GA). A dataset of 120,999 entries was obtained from the Kaggle platform and processed through data cleaning, normalization, and categorical encoding stages. A baseline SVM model was built as an initial benchmark before optimization. The results of the experiment showed that the PSO method produced the best performance with accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score of 0.995, surpassing SVM without optimization (0.950) and SVM optimized by GA (0.990). These findings indicate that PSO is capable of exploring the solution space more effectively based on experimental results showing more stable and gradual convergence on the learning curve, with a smaller gap between training and validation values, and a more structured solution search process compared to GA, thereby improving model stability and accuracy. This research contributes to the development of a more accurate classification model for toddler nutritional status that can be integrated into decision support systems in the health sector, which can also be applied to improve efficiency and accuracy in data-based decision making, particularly in the context of assessing toddler nutritional status. This contribution has a significant impact on advancing the application of metaheuristic methods in various informatics applications.

Abstract

Liver disease is one of the serious health problems that often develops without obvious early symptoms, making it difficult to detect early and increasing the risk of more severe complications. The main problem in the classification of liver disease is how to obtain a prediction model that has high accuracy and stability when faced with multivariate and complex medical data. Therefore, this study aims to improve the performance of liver disease classification by optimizing the Random Forest algorithm using the Grid Search hyperparameter optimization technique. The dataset used consisted of 1,700 patient data with eleven attributes that included demographic characteristics, lifestyle, medical risk factors, and liver function test results. The pre-processing stage includes data checking, feature normalization, and data sharing using a ratio of 80% trained data and 20% stratified test data. The Random Forest model is built as a base model and further optimized using Grid Search with a cross-validation scheme to obtain the best combination of hyperparameters. Model performance evaluation was carried out using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. The results showed that the baseline Random Forest model produced an accuracy of 89.71%, while after optimization using Grid Search, the accuracy increased to 91.18% accompanied by an increase in precision, recall, and F1-score values. These improvements show that the hyperparameter optimization process plays an important role in improving the generalization capabilities and stability of the model. The findings of this study confirm that the integration of Random Forest and Grid Search can be an effective approach to the classification of liver diseases and make a significant contribution to the development of medical decision support systems and the application of Machine Learning techniques in the field of health informatics.
