<![CDATA[The development of machine learning in predicting the mechanical properties of alloy steel has become an important research subject in recent years. This is due to the ability of machine learning to extract complex patterns from large and intricate data, which can be used to understand the relationship between chemical composition, microstructure, and mechanical properties of alloy steel. This research aims to design a machine learning model to predict the mechanical properties of low alloy steel, such as Yield Strength (YS) and Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS), based on the percentage composition of chemical elements in low alloy steel and the heat treatment applied. The machine learning model in this study consists of 10 input variables and 2 target variables. The research compares the performance of 3 machine learning algorithms, namely Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The research findings indicate that the ANN algorithm model performs best in predicting the mechanical properties of low alloy steel. This model has Mean Absolute Error (MAE) values of 16.5 and 19.593 for predicting YS and UTS, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values of 19.111 and 22.005, and coefficient of determination (R) values of 0.964 and 0.947 for YS and UTS respectively. The modeling uses the ANN algorithm with an 80% training data and 20% testing data split, and applies the K-Fold Cross Validation method with a value of K=5. The best parameters obtained are a learning rate of 0.001, momentum of 0.1, and a hidden layer neuron count of 9. These results indicate that ANN has great potential in addressing the complexity and variability in material data. The implications of these findings are that the implementation of ANN in manufacturing and material engineering industries can enhance the accuracy and efficiency in material strength prediction processes, which, in turn, can aid in designing and developing better and more durable products.]]>
