Abstract

Identifying which students may struggle in examinations early on is a critical challenge in vocational schools. This study aims to create and compare two machine learning models to predict the graduation status of Vocational High School (SMK) students majoring in Software and Game Development (PPLG). This prediction is based on their Competency Skills Test (UKK) scores. We used data from 310 students and tested two methods: Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The results are very clear: the SVM model performed exceptionally well, achieving an accuracy of 99%. SVM was able to recognize both 'Competent' and 'Not Yet Competent' students in a balanced manner. Conversely, the ANN model's performance was poor, with an accuracy of only 66%. This occurred because the ANN failed to learn and simply guessed that all students would pass. This research concludes that SVM is a highly effective method to be used as an early warning system. With this system, schools can more quickly assist students who are at risk of failing. SVM achieved 99% accuracy with perfect precision for the Competent class and full recall for the Not Yet Competent class. ROC-AUC and PR-AUC indicated excellent separability and strong minority-class detection. ANN achieved only 66% accuracy, predicting all samples as Competent. Learning curves revealed stagnation and failure to learn minority class patterns. Additional baseline models (Logistic Regression, Random Forest) were tested, with SVM outperforming all others consistently. Statistical significance testing using McNemar's test confirmed that SVM provides significantly better classification performance than ANN (p < 0.01).

Abstract

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a medical system that has been historically proven effective in diagnosing and managing various symptoms through the concepts of the Five Element imbalance, Yin-Yang, and acupuncture points. In the era of artificial intelligence, the utilization of Large Language Models (LLMs) specifically designed for the healthcare domain, referred to as Health-LLM Agents (AI-based health agents powered by LLMs), holds great potential in supporting TCM practices with greater efficiency and precision. This study aims to design and evaluate the performance of a Health-LLM Agent in predicting imbalances among the Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water) based on patient symptoms, while also recommending appropriate acupuncture points for therapy. The methodology involves fine-tuning an LLM model with prompt engineering tailored to TCM terminology and principles, along with integrating symptom data in semi-structured text format. Evaluation is conducted using expert validation and classification metrics such as diagnostic accuracy, relevance of acupuncture point recommendations, and result interpretability. The findings indicate that the Health-LLM Agent achieves an 81% accuracy in predicting Five Element imbalances and receives 92% positive validation from TCM practitioners regarding acupuncture point recommendations. These results demonstrate that the Health-LLM Agent can serve as a promising tool to support the digitalization and personalization of TCM diagnosis through AI-based systems
