<![CDATA[The determination of poverty status in Lombok Utara district depends on criteria such as income, access to health and education services, and housing conditions. These factors are crucial for assessing the level of community welfare and guiding the allocation of social assistance by the district government. The purpose of this study is to address the gap by utilizing advanced data mining techniques to improve the accuracy of poverty status classification in North Lombok, thereby informing more effective social assistance policies. The method used in this research is the Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Naïve Bayes with split data 80% data training and 20% data testing. The finding indicated that the machine learning model the RF algorithm, which achieved an accuracy rate of 82.56%, proved to play an important role in this process by effectively distinguishing between different categories of poverty based on these criteria. In comparison, the KNN algorithm achieved an accuracy of 70.94% and the Naïve Bayes model achieved an accuracy of 53.47%. It means that the machine learning model using the RF algorithm has more accurate accuracy than the KNN and Naïve Bayes algorithm in predicting or recommending Recipients of Social Assistance from the District Government. The implication is that RF machine learning can help the role of social service officers in predicting the economic status of the community. The high accuracy of the RF algorithm enhances its role in informing targeted policy decisions and optimizing the effectiveness of social assistance programs. Nonetheless, continuous improvement is essential to refine the model's predictive capabilities and ensure the accuracy and reliability of poverty assessments. These continuous improvements are essential to effectively alleviate poverty and break the cycle of socio-economic disparities in the region.]]>
