Abstract

Children’s health and development are critical for maintaining national productivity and independence, with stunting being a major concern. Stunting, a form of malnutrition, impairs growth and development, affecting millions of people globally, including a significant number in Indonesia. This study addresses the challenge of stunting by developing a predictive model using machine learning techniques to forecast stunting risks based on public health data. The literature review section discusses the factors that influence stunting, and these factors are used as features to build a stunting prediction model. Then the features were used to build a model with three machine learning algorithms Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Random Forest, and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) to build and evaluate models that predict stunting. The models were trained and assessed using public datasets and the most effective algorithm was integrated into a mobile application for practical use. The results indicate that the XGBoost model outperforms the other models with an accuracy of 85%, making it the optimal choice for implementation in a mobile application. The next-best model is selected to be implemented through a mobile application so that users can directly use the model that has been built. This application aims to enhance early detection and intervention efforts for stunting, potentially improving child health outcomes and contributing to long-term productivity by building predictive models and implementing the models into a mobile application. This study contributes to the implementation of models built using public data for application in mobile applications.
