Abstract

The city of Banyuwangi needs a touch of information technology in the agricultural sector, namely in the process of planting orange fruit, because orange fruit planting is carried out continuously to meet export needs. Citrus fruit planting is sometimes carried out without paying attention to the existing soil nutrient content, this condition can result in less than optimal harvest results. The research was carried out by creating a soil nutrient detection application with the aim of providing information to farmers about the soil nutrient content including nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus, pH and moisture resistance before planting citrus fruit. From the results of trials conducted by researchers with farmers based on various types of soil used as trial data, the information shows a match of 89.6%. The results of the research produced an Android-based soil nutrient checking application that farmers can use to check soil nutrients when planting citrus fruit. In conducting the research, the researcher created an application by applying the KNN method and utilizing a microcontroller to input the data. By combining methods and tools, microcontrollers can assist the implementation process so as to provide information in the form of soil suitability for planting citrus fruit based on the nutrient content of the soil being examined. The contribution made from the research results is the application of a KNN method which is used to check soil nutrients so that it can maximize the results of the detection carried out. Meanwhile, another contribution is the use of a tool in the form of a microcontroller which is used to automatically input data which can be obtained using the Bluetooth service in the soil nutrient check application.

Abstract

The digital representation of flowers, characterized by their vivid chromatic attributes, establishes them as viable candidates for deployment as input imagery within the object recognition paradigm. Within the context of object recognition, the imperative of a proficient image segmentation process is underscored, serving to effectively discern the object from its background and, consequently, optimizing the efficacy of the object recognition process. This research unfolds through a methodologically structured tripartite framework, encompassing the initial stage involving input imagery, the subsequent intermediate phase dedicated to image segmentation, and a conclusive stage centered on the quantitative evaluation of methodological outcomes. The second stage, focusing on image segmentation, employs the Otsu thresholding and multilevel thresholding methods. The subsequent third stage involves a thorough assessment of segmentation outcomes through the application of quantitative metrics, including Peak signal-to-oise ratio (PSNR) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). Empirical investigations, incorporating a diverse array of floral input images, reveal a conspicuous inclination towards a specific segmentation methodology. Specifically, the Otsu Thresholding method emerges as the more judicious choice relative to multilevel Thresholding, demonstrating superior performance with a diminished RMSE value and an augmented PSNR value, substantiated by an average RMSE value. This research is propelled by the overarching objective of discerning the most optimal method for the segmentation of flower images, particularly in the face of diverse input images. Its significant contribution lies in providing nuanced insights into the discerning selection of segmentation methodologies, attuned to the variability inherent in diverse forms of input imagery, thereby culminating in optimized outcomes within the domain of flower image recognition.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to measure the usability effectiveness of a web application by using card menus and tree menus using user-friendly criteria and access speed as indicated by the number of clicks made by the user. The method used in this research is the Task-centered User Interface method, where this method allows for planning and evaluating the arrangement of the interface according to user needs. There are four stages in this method, including user identification by conducting needs analysis, the second phase is user interface design. The third phase is the implementation of the card menu and tree menu design, and the fourth face is testing the usability and effectiveness requirements. From the research that has been carried out regarding measuring the effectiveness of using card menus, it is more effective to use than tree menus because you can directly lift the menu and access it. Meanwhile, for usability, the card menus have a higher usability index than the tree menus. Meanwhile, for usability measurements carried out by direct observation and distributing questionnaires, the resulting percentage of user understanding, ease, and speed for the card menu display was 87% and for the tree menu was 60% so that the card menu display was more accepted by users than the tree menu. The new thing provided by the results of this research is in the form of suggestions that can be used by web application developers to use the right type of menu in building web-based applications with the same specifications as in the case of school finance applications.
