Abstract

Protection of digital images is becoming increasingly important with the growing use of images as a medium of information in various fields, particularly in the healthcare sector. Medical images such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) contain sensitive information that requires extra security against unauthorized access and data manipulation. This study aims to design and build a digital image security system using a dual encryption approach and authenticity verification based on watermarking. The security process is carried out in two main stages. First, images with text-based watermarks are encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm to protect their visual content. Second, the AES key is re-encrypted using the Blowfish algorithm to prevent the key from being stored in plaintext, thereby creating an additional layer of protection. The watermark is embedded into the image using the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) method and is first converted into a hash value using the SHA-256 algorithm, which serves to verify the integrity of the image after decryption. The testing was conducted using the public dataset “Brain Tumor Image Dataset (Semantic Segmentation)” from Kaggle, which consists of brain MRI images in .jpg and .png formats. The system evaluation encompassed functionality, data security, and process efficiency through system function testing, measurement of encrypted data randomness (entropy test), file penetration using OpenSSL, and performance analysis in terms of processing time and file size. The research results show that the system successfully implemented double encryption with a high entropy level (approaching 8.00) and resistance to penetration attacks. In terms of efficiency, the system achieved an average encryption time of 81.35 ms and decryption time of 13.68 ms with minimal file size increase. Integrity testing confirmed that the SVD-SHA256-based watermark remained intact after the encryption-decryption process, enabling verification of image authenticity. The developed system efficiently maintains the confidentiality and authenticity of digital images and can be applied in electronic medical record systems or sensitive digital archives. Keywords: Digital images, double encryption, AES, Blowfish, SVD

Abstract

Each insurance participant pays a premium to the insurance company during the coverage period. In paying the sum insured to insurance participants, insurance companies need to prepare reserve costs. This reserve fee is used to pay for the needs of insurance companies and insurance participants. This research explains the calculation of premium sufficiency reserve for joint life insurance for life insurance participants aged x years and y years with Laplace distribution. The parameters of the Laplace distribution are estimated using the method of momen and the method of maximum likelihood. The solution of the problem is obtained by determining the initial life annuity term, single premium, and annual premium so that the premium sufficiency reserve formula based on Laplace distribution is obtained. The results of the calculation of premium sufficiency reserves of joint life insurance using Laplace distribution are more less the same as the prospective reserves of joint life insurance using Laplace distribution.

Abstract

The pu IDR ose of this research is to solve the 0/1 integer knapsack problem, which is a problem of selecting items from a number of available items where each item has different weights and profits. The delivery of items at J&T Cargo Purwokerto is one of many item selection problems. The delivery of items at J&T Cargo Purwokerto is carried out progressively with higher profit values ​​first, due to the delivery capacity being able to accommodate only 700 kg. In order for J&T Cargo Purwokerto to obtain maximum profit, item selection for delivery must be carried out first. The item selection at J&T Cargo Purwokerto can be solved using the 0/1 integer knapsack problem method with a forward recursive dynamic programming algorithm with the help of Matlab R2021A software. The results of the research indicate that on July 1, 2025, a maximum profit of IDR 3,038,850 was achieved with a weight of 700 kg. On 2nd July 2025, a maximum profit of IDR 4,884,985 was achieved with a weight of 700 kg. On 3rd July 2025, a maximum profit of IDR 7,732,155 was achieved with a weight of 699 kg.

Abstract

This study aims to compare the performance of Islamic and conventional bank stock portfolios in Indonesia using the Markowitz Model approach that focuses on return and risk optimization. The object of research includes four banking issuers, namely BBCA and BBNI (conventional), and BRIS and BTPS (sharia), with daily closing price data during the period March 2020 to March 2021. Calculations were made on expected return, risk (standard deviation), sharpe ratio, and optimal portfolio composition. The results show that the Islamic stock portfolio has a higher expected return (0.009385) than the conventional portfolio (0.001652), but is accompanied by greater risk. Nevertheless, the efficiency of the Islamic portfolio remains competitive based on the sharpe ratio indicator and the ratio of return to variance. The optimal composition in the Islamic portfolio is dominated by BTPS stocks (68.69%), while in the conventional portfolio it is dominated by BBNI stocks (62.19%). These findings suggest that an Islamic bank stock portfolio can be an investment alternative that is not only ethical, but also financially superior in terms of risk and return.

Abstract

Indonesia’s Civil Servants (PNS) pension system uses a defined benefit scheme managed by PT Taspen (Persero). However, the scheme faces serious challenges such as increasing life expectancy, a growing number of retirees, and an imbalance in pension contributions and liabilities. Evaluation of the liability calculation method is important to ensure the sustainability of the system. This study aims to compare the Projected Unit Credit (PUC) and Individual Level Premium (ILP) methods in calculating the pension fund for PNS Group III/D. This research uses a quantitative approach through actuarial simulation of data on civil servants of Group III/D with the assumptions of salary, retirement age, and annual salary increase. The analysis is done by calculating Actuarial Liability and Normal Cost for each method. The results show that the PUC method produces a Normal Cost that increases with the age of participants, while ILP provides a fixed contribution even though it is larger at the beginning. Both Actuarial Liability values also increase as the retirement age approaches, but ILP tends to be higher at all ages. From the manager's perspective, ILP is more stable and planned, while PUC is lighter on participants at the beginning and takes into account salary increases. Therefore, the choice of method must consider the ability of the agency to pay contributions consistently and the expectations of participants to get decent retirement benefits. The results of this study are expected to be taken into consideration in improving a fairer and more sustainable pension system for PNS, especially Group III/D.

Abstract

Education not only emphasizes academic excellence but also requires the development of students' character, talents, and soft skills. Extracurricular activities play a crucial role in providing students with opportunities to explore their potential beyond the classroom. However, students often encounter difficulties in selecting the most suitable extracurricular activity, which may result in low motivation and reduced participation. To address this issue, a web-based Decision Support System (DSS) was developed using the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). The system considers multiple criteria, namely interest, talent, academic achievement, parental support, physical condition, and equipment cost, to generate objective recommendations. The research was conducted at SMKN 1 Bukit Sundi with seven extracurricular alternatives, including Futsal, Volleyball, Pramuka, Paskibra, Marching Band, OSIS, PMR, and Randai. The system was implemented using PHP and MySQL, providing an automated process of normalization, weighting, calculation of ideal solutions, and ranking. Results showed that Futsal achieved the highest preference value (0.755846), followed by Volleyball and Pramuka, while Randai ranked lowest with a value of 0.223794. These findings indicate that student preferences are strongly aligned with sports and leadership activities, while traditional art forms are less favoured. The system proved to be consistent with manual calculations and successfully enhanced transparency, efficiency, and accessibility in extracurricular selection. Compared to alternative methods such as SAW, TOPSIS offered greater flexibility by accommodating both benefit and cost attributes simultaneously. This study contributes practically by providing a tool that supports schools and students in decision-making, and academically by extending the application of TOPSIS in vocational education.

Abstract

Predicting stock trends with precision in the ever-evolving financial markets continues to be a formidable challenge. This research investigates an innovative approach that amalgamates the capabilities of BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) for sentiment classification (Pang et al., 2002; ?) with supervised machine learning techniques to elevate the accuracy of stock trend prediction. By harnessing the natural language processing process of BERT and its capacity to understand context and sentiment in textual data, coupled with established machine learning methodologies, we aim to provide a robust solution to the intricacies of stock market prediction. By leveraging BERT's natural language processing capabilities, we extract sentiment features from financial news articles. These sentiment scores, combined with traditional financial indicators, form a comprehensive set of features for our predictive model. We aggregate daily net sentiment, among other metrics, and demonstrate its statistically significant predictive efficacy concerning subsequent movements in the stock market. We employed a machine learning model to establish a quantitative relationship between the aggregation of daily net sentiment and trends in stock market movements. Which improved the state-of-the-art performance by 15 percentage points. This research contributes to the ongoing effort to improve stock trend prediction methods, ultimately aiding market participants in making informed investment choices.
