<![CDATA[Javanese script is one of Indonesia's cultural heritages that are increasingly rarely used today. The difficulty of recognizing the shapes of letters, let alone writing them, is the main obstacle in using the Hanacaraka script. This research offers an alternative to Hanacaraka script recognition using a combination of image feature extraction and machine learning, where we utilize a pre-trained SquzeeNet model and Multilayer Backpropagation algorithm. Of the 18 models built using ReLu, Sigmoid, and Tanh activation functions, we found that the Tanh activation function, using the combination of 50-50-100 neuron configuration and 25 epochs, was the most optimal function used to classify the training data with accuracy, precision, and recall values of 93.8%. Meanwhile, the Tanh activation function, using the 50-100-50 neuron configuration and 50 epochs, is the most optimal function to classify the testing data, with accuracy, precision, and recall values of 89.1%, 89.5%, and 89.5%. All built models show a training and testing performance ratio below 10%. From this result, we conclude that all models have good reliability in the training and testing classification process.]]>
