Abstract

Mosques are places of worship for Muslims. With a large number of mosques, the problems that arise are also diverse, for example the AL Akbar Surabaya mosque has 2 thefts per year. The form of breaking into the charity box was in the form of the destruction of the padlock hinge made of iron plates in the outer courtyard of the mosque. This is a problem for mosque managers. The purpose of this research is to create a security system for the charity box of the Al Akbar National Mosque that can be controlled remotely using the Internet of Things (IoT). This system will ensure the safety of the charity box and prevent the possibility of theft or manipulation of the money contained in it. This security system uses motion sensors as an indicator of suspicious activity around the charity box. When the vibration sensor detects vibration, the system will activate the Buzzer and the ESP32 CAM camera takes pictures to be further processed using a face detection algorithm and the results are sent in the form of a notification to the mosque manager who is connected to the internet network, so that it can take photos that can be accessed in real-time by security control. To control this security system, a mobile application will be built that can be accessed by mosque administrators. Overall, this design will provide a higher level of security for the Al Akbar National Mosque charity box. With a security system that can be accessed and controlled remotely through IoT. The mosque management can quickly respond and take action in unsafe situations.

Abstract

Information and communication technology development has entered the era of Industry 4.0, requiring the educational sector to adapt more rapidly and efficiently. Thus, information technology has been integrated into various learning activities. However, the monitoring of information on students' learning progress is mostly carried out by the schools, while parents typically receive report cards at the end of the term. This does not provide effectiveness, as it limits parental involvement in early supervision. This research is designed to help both teachers and parents in supervising students more directly. This research utilizes NFC (Near Field Communication) technology for recording student attendance at school. Based on the results of application testing, users gave high ratings to the system in terms of interface design, NFC card reading accuracy, ease of managing student permissions, recording student behavior and academic grades, as well as the tool’s completeness and functionality. The average success rate of horizontal NFC card reading reached 100%, while vertical reading achieved 90%. The maximum reading distance was 4 cm for Samsung A50s (version 10.0) and Samsung A30s (version 10.0), and 3 cm for the Redmi Note 8 Pro (version 9.0).

Abstract

Rumpiang Bridge is a vital object and requires special handling for voltage installation; therefore, a construction that is capable of spanning a wide area is needed, where the construction obtained is the 150 kV HV construction, and for the cable span, it is simulated using the Monte Carlo method for the analysis of cable crossing deflection in Barito Kuala, with three types of cables, namely ACSR, AAAC, and AAACS. The simulation was carried out 1000 times by considering random variations of ±10% in cable weight and tensile force and ±5% in the crossing length. The results show that ACSR and AAAC cables have low average deflections, 3.24 meters and 3.26 meters, respectively, with standard deviations of 0.33 meters and 0.32 meters, indicating stable and consistent mechanical performance. While the AAACS cable shows a higher average deflection of 4.72 meters and a standard deviation of 0.48 meters, indicating a greater variation in deflection due to its physical characteristics. All three cables meet the technical requirement of maximum deflection <30 meters, but ACSR cable is recommended as the primary choice due to its combination of low deflection and high stability, which provides a greater safety margin in extreme crossing environmental conditions.

Abstract

Facial biometric technology is widely used in various fields such as bank security, border crossings, airport check-in, home surveillance, remote meetings in offices, prisons, and factories. This makes facial recognition an important field to study and develop. In countries like the United States and Germany, trials have begun for the implementation of Face Recognition technology in airport areas. This technology is used for airport check-in systems to address the issue of long queues, especially during holiday seasons, which is a common occurrence in airports worldwide. Although online check-in methods already exist, they still do not resolve this issue. Unfortunately, this technology has not yet been implemented or discussed for application in Indonesian airports. Therefore, the researchers intend to conduct a study on this technology to ensure that Indonesia does not fall behind other countries in facial detection technology. Based on the test results of the developed system, it can be concluded that the facial detection system is quite effective in identifying faces, but there are some limitations, such as lighting and facial accessories. The system works optimally at light intensities ranging from 806 lumens to 161 lumens, and if the person to be detected is wearing a mask or sunglasses, the system will not be able to recognize the face.

Abstract

Communication is an important aspect of social life, including for deaf people who rely on sign language as their primary means of interaction. However, the limited understanding of sign language in society, especially BISINDO (Bahasa Isyarat Indonesia), is often a barrier to effective communication. This study aims to develop a simple sign language translator system using TensorFlow and Keras-based machine learning technology, as well as image processing support from OpenCV. The system is trained to recognize six basic signs in BISINDO, namely “Halo”, “Nama”, “Saya, “A”, “D”, and “I”, using hand images as training data. Each word is represented by 20 images with variations in horizontal position. The test results show that the system is able to recognize signs with fairly good accuracy under certain conditions, but still has difficulty when faced with variations in hand positions that are different from the training data. This study shows the potential of sign language recognition technology in supporting inclusive communication, as well as the importance of data enrichment and variation in viewpoints in the model training process so that the system can function more optimally in various real conditions.

Abstract

This study discusses how to accurately determine the level of ability of students using Computer Adaptive Testing (CAT). In the implementation of CAT, test participants are given question items according to their abilities. This shows the difference from existing testing systems such as Computer Based Testing (CBT). ADAPTIVE in this system is an automated exam system that is carried out adaptively, adjusting the difficulty level of the questions to the ability of each examinee. The questions given depend on the answer to the previous question: true or false. If the answer is correct, then the next question item has a higher level of difficulty, while if it is wrong, the difficulty level of the next question decreases. CAT in this study is also called the term SIMPATIF (Adaptive Assessment System). The difference between CAT and SIMPATIF is from the selection of question items, in the test using the SIMPATIF application, the selection of question items using the C4.5 algorithm and IRT 3 Parameter Logistics Model (3PL). The 3 parameters are the difficulty level of the question, differentiation, and deceit. In the development of this SIMPATIF. The input attributes from the decision tree have 4 attributes, namely difficulty level, differentiation, deceiver and IRT, while the target attributes are 2, namely YES and NO. The questions used are productive subjects majoring in Multimedia at SMK PGRI 2 Sidoarjo. The study was conducted with 10 students, SIMPATIF only succeeded in 67,901% for the adaptive status of the questions. Meanwhile, if correlated with CBT 76.58%.

Abstract

This research aims to address the class imbalance problem in fraud detection using hybrid resampling techniques, specifically SMOTE-Tomek, combined with Random Forest classifiers. Imbalanced data in fraud detection tasks can severely hinder model performance, resulting in poor detection of minority (fraud) cases. By employing SMOTE to oversample minority class instances and Tomek links to clean the borderline majority class samples, this study evaluates the effectiveness of this hybrid method in improving classification metrics. Using a benchmark credit card fraud dataset, we compare the performance of Random Forest models with and without the hybrid sampling approach. The experimental results show that SMOTE-Tomek significantly enhances recall and F1-score without sacrificing accuracy. This finding underscores the importance of using appropriate resampling strategies for improving model robustness in fraud detection.

Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of a Machine Learning (ML)-based chess game developed in Python. Unlike traditional chess game that rely primarily on alpha-beta pruning and handcrafted evaluation functions, this approach employs supervised learning techniques to create a neural network model capable of evaluating chess positions and making move decisions. The system leverages the python-chess library for game representation and the scikit-learn framework for implementing the machine learning components. We demonstrate that even with relatively simple feature engineering and a modest neural network architecture, the system can learn effective chess strategies. The implementation is designed to run in a Jupyter Notebook environment, providing an interactive interface for human players to compete against the ML agent while facilitating educational insights into both chess strategy and machine learning principles.

Abstract

The control panel on the filling machine is an important component in the industrial automation system that functions to regulate the work sensors, actuators, and time-based control devices. This research begins with the emergence of ideas or needs to develop a system or solve a problem, which is then followed by problem identification and literature study to strengthen the theoretical basis. This study aims to redesign the filling machine control panel using a modular approach based on the Arduino Nano microcontroller. By replacing analog components with digital ones such as relay channels, LCDs, and modular PCBs, a cost efficiency analysis was carried out between the old and new systems. Testing was carried out by evaluating the response time, stability, and actuator coordination of the control panel, as well as conducting an economic analysis that included cost reduction and Return on Investment (ROI) calculations. These indicators were compared between the new and old panels to assess improvements in both technical performance and economic efficiency. The results showed that the new panel improved response speed, stability, and actuator coordination, while achieving cost savings of up to 80% compared to the conventional panel.The Return on Investment (ROI) analysis indicated an ROI of 405%, which demonstrates a significant economic advantage as the initial investment can be recovered multiple times over. This result highlights that the redesigned system is not only technically superior but also cost-effective and flexible, making it highly suitable for small to medium-scale industries. This system is also more modular, easy to program, and supports digital interface integration, making it a feasible and sustainable automation solution
