<![CDATA[Hearing loss is a significant global health problem, with a high prevalence in Indonesia. Limited access to ENT specialists, especially in remote areas, causes delays in diagnosis and treatment of ear diseases. This research aims to develop an early diagnosis system for ear diseases using deep learning. The proposed method applies Xception and MobileNet-V2 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture with hyperparameter optimization using Bayesian Optimizer. The dataset consists of 1,101 images covering 20 types of ear diseases, collected using an endoscope ear cleaning kit at Mataram University Hospital. The dataset was divided into 60% training data, 20% validation data, and 20% test data. Xception recorded the best performance with accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score of 0.911, 0.166, 0.166, and 0.151, respectively. The best model performance was obtained on MobileNet-V2 with the application of Bayesian Optimizer, resulting in the best hyperparameters at Unit Dense 174, Dropout Rate 0.2, and LXceptionearning Rate 0.003. This scenario resulted in an increase in accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score compared to the scenario without hyperparameter search of 0.004, 0.010, 0.018, and 0.012, respectively. This research demonstrates the potential of deep learning in improving early diagnosis of ear diseases.]]>
