Abstract

Abstract. Brain tumors are a critical disease due to the abnormal growth of cells in the brain, which can damage surrounding normal cells and increasing the risk of death in patients. With advancements in technology, artificial intelligence can be developed to segment brain tumor areas, aiding medical professionals in identifying tumor characteristics and determining appropriate treatment plans. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models can be utilized for segmentation tasks because their ability to classify each pixel of an image, assign specific labels, and map them into homogeneous groups. To enhance the capability of CNNs against the possibility of vanishing gradients, the Residual Network (ResNet) architecture can be applied to the segmentation model. The use of ResNet provides additional capability for the network to choose between the training results in the current epoch or skip to the next network when the training results approach the identity value. However, ResNet also reduces the scale of images and feature maps during downsampling operations, sacrificing spatial resolution. This study proposes the implementation of the Nearest Neighbor Upsampling method on ResNet to improve the model's accuracy in the task of MRI brain tumor segmentation.  Purpose: This research proposes a method to increase the accuracy of brain tumor MRI image segmentation using the ResNet model by implementing the Nearest Neighbor Upsampling method. Methods/Study design/approach: The method used is Nearest Neighbor Upsampling on ResNet to enhance image dimensions and fill gaps in MRI brain tumor images during the learning process, preserving spatial information and context crucial for segmentation. Result/Findings: The optimization of the brain segmentation model for classifying brain tumor regions using ResNet and Nearest Neighbor Upsampling achieves an increase in accuracy from 96.94% to 98.44% and a decrease in loss value from 0.0881 to 0.0874. Novelty/Originality/Value: This research addresses the limitations of the Residual Network (ResNet) model, such as the drawback of reducing the scale of images and feature maps during downsampling, resulting in a loss of spatial resolution. To overcome this challenge, the study introduces the Nearest Neighbor Upsampling method applied to ResNet, demonstrating its effectiveness in representing spatial information and image context, thereby improving segmentation accuracy.

Abstract

Abstract. Heart failure is caused by a disruption in the heart’s muscle wall, which results in the heart’s inability to pump blood in sufficient quantities to meet the body’s demand for blood. The increasing prevalence and mortality rates of heart failure can be reduced through early disease detection using data mining processes. Data mining is believed to aid in discovering and interpreting specific patterns in decision-making based on processed information. Data mining has also been applied in various fields, one of which is the healthcare sector. One of the data mining techniques used to predict a decision is the classification technique. Purpose: This research aims to apply SMOTE and PSO to the Random Forest classification algorithm in predicting the survival of heart failure patients and to determine its accuracy results. Methods/Study design/approach: To predict the survival of heart failure patients, we utilize the Random Forest classification algorithm and incorporate data imbalance handling with SMOTE and feature selection techniques with PSO on the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset. The data mining process consists of three distinct phases. Result/Findings: The application of SMOTE and PSO on the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset in the Random Forest classification process resulted in an accuracy rate of 93.9%. In contrast, the Random Forest classification process without SMOTE and PSO resulted in an accuracy rate of only 88.33%. This indicates that the proposed method combination can optimize the performance of the classification algorithm, achieving a higher accuracy compared to previous research. Novelty/Originality/Value: Data imbalance and irrelevant features in the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset significantly impact the classification process. Therefore, this research utilizes SMOTE as a data balancing method and PSO as a feature selection technique in the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset before the classification process of the Random Forest algorithm.

Abstract. Indonesia is known for its traditional food both domestically and abroad. Several cakes are included in favorite traditional foods. Of the many types of cakes that exist, it is visually easy to recognize by humans, but computer vision requires special techniques in identifying image objects to types of cakes. Therefore, to recognize objects in the form of images of cakes as one of Indonesian specialties, a deep learning algorithm technique, namely the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) can be used. Purpose: This study aims to find out how the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) works by optimizing the hyperband hyperparameter in the classification process and knowing the accuracy value when hyperband is applied to the optimal hyperparameter selection process for classifying Indonesian snack images. Methods/Study design/approach: This study optimizes the hyperparameter Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) using Hyperband on the Indonesian cake dataset. The dataset is 1845 images of Indonesian snacks which consists of 1523 training data, 162 validation data and 160 testing data with 8 classes. In training data, the dataset is divided by 82% on training data, 9% validation, and 9% testing. Result/Findings: The best hyperparameter value produced is 480 for the number of dense neurons 2 and 0.0001 for the learning rate. The proposed method succeeded in achieving a training value of 87.53%, for the validation process it was obtained 66.8%, the testing process was obtained 79.37%. Results obtained from model training of 50 epochs. Novelty/Originality/Value: Previous research focused on the application and development of algorithms for the classification of Indonesian snacks. Therefore, optimizing hyperparameters in a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) using Hyperband can be an alternative in selecting the optimal architecture and hyperparameters.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of statistical e-comic based on multisensory approach integrated with collaborative learning model in improving mathematical connection ability of deaf students. The research approach used is mixed-methods with Single Subject Research (SSR) design type A-B-A. The subjects consisted of three deaf students of class VIII-B in SLB Negeri Ungaran who were purposively selected. Data collection techniques included mathematical connection tests, learning observations, semi-structured interviews, and visual documentation. Quantitative data was analysed using visual inspection charts within and between conditions, while qualitative data was analysed through reduction, presentation, interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that statistical e-comic media was effective in significantly improving deaf students' mathematical connections, both from cognitive (concept understanding), affective (motivation and attitude), and psychomotor aspects (digital skills and participation). The conclusion shows that statistical e-comic with multisensory approach and collaborative learning is able to bridge the gap of mathematical understanding contextually and applicatively.

Abstract

Tuberculosis remains a major global health challenge, and the manual interpretation of chest X-rays is often limited by the subjectivity and shortage of radiology experts. While deep learning approaches like DenseNet have shown promise in medical imaging, the integration of attention mechanisms such as the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) for tuberculosis detection has been less explored. This study aimed to develop a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model utilizing DenseNet-169 combined with CBAM to accurately classify chest X-ray images into normal and tuberculosis classes. A dataset of 7,000 chest X-ray images was preprocessed and partitioned into training, validation, and testing sets. DenseNet-169 served as the backbone architecture, while CBAM was applied to emphasize crucial spatial and channel features. Evaluated across standard metrics, the proposed model achieved an accuracy of 99.43%, a precision of 99.72%, a recall of 99.14%, and an F1-score of 99.43%, successfully outperforming the baseline DenseNet-169 model without CBAM. Ultimately, the integration of CBAM with DenseNet-169 demonstrates remarkable potential in improving tuberculosis detection, confirming that attention mechanisms can substantially enhance deep learning performance in medical imaging.
