Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to compare the performance of ensemble trees such as Random Forest (RF) and Double Random Forest (DRF) from view points of interpretability of the models. Both models have strong predictive performance but the inner working of the models is not human understandable. Model interpretability is required to explain the relationship between the predictors and the response. We apply association rules to simplify the essence of the models.Methods: This study compares interpretability of RF and DRF using association rules. Each decision tree formed from each model is converted into if-then rules by following the path from root node to leaf nodes. The data was selected in such a way that they were underfit data. This is due to the fact that DRF has been shown by other researchers to overcome the underfitting problem faced by RF. A Simulation study has been conducted to evaluate the extracted rules from RF and DRF. The rules extracted from both models are compared in terms of model interpretability based on support and confidence values. Association rules may also be applied to identify the characteristics of poor people who are working in Yogyakarta.Result: The simulation results revealed that the interpretability of DRF outperformed RF especially in the case of modelling underfit data.  On the other hand, using empirical data we have been able to characterize the profile of poor people who are working in Yogyakarta based on the most frequent rules.Novelty: Research on interpretable DRF is still rare, especially the interpretation model using association rules. Previous studies focused only on interpreting the random forest model using association rules. In this study, the rules extracted from the random forest and double random forest models are compared based on the quality of the rules extracted.

Abstract

Purpose: This study analyzes the use of the BAKSO (Create Online Population Administration) application for users, namely employees of the East Lombok Regency Population and Civil Registration Office and the Admin of each village. The measurement uses variables consisting of infrastructure, ICT, bureaucracy, leadership, and implementation of digital government.Methods: The method used is a quantitative type, primary data in the form of a survey of 115 respondents from East Lombok Regency Population and Civil Registration Office office employees and village admins who used the BAKSO application (Create Online Population Administration). Using the Likert Scale (1: strongly disagree, 2: disagree, 3: neutral, 4: agree, and 5: strongly agree). The analysis technique for this study uses SmartPLS 3.Results: The results of this study show that infrastructure and ICT variables have a positive and significant influence on the implementation of digital government in the implementation of the BAKSO application. Meanwhile, bureaucratic and leadership variables have little impact and are substantial in implementing the BAKSO application in East Lombok Regency.Novelty: This study is unique because it examines users who are also employees who use the BAKSO application (Make Online Population Administration) with a measuring indicator, namely the online service index (OSI); most of the previous research on this theory was only oriented to assessing public satisfaction with online services. This research provides a new perspective on using the Online Service Index (OSI) on the scope of application-based online services from an employee perspective. In addition, the empirical contribution lies in the professionalism of employees in using the BAKSO application. So that later, it can provide space for the government to pay attention to human resources in running Online Service Index (OSI)-based application services.

Abstract

Purpose: The results of microarray data analysis is important in cancer diagnosis, especially in early stages asymptomatic cancers like ovarian cancer. One of the challenges in analyzing microarray data is the problem of imbalanced data. Unfortunately, research that carries out cancer classification from microarray data often ignores this challenge, so that it doesn’t use appropriate evaluation metrics. It makes the results biased towards the majority class. This study uses a popular evaluation metric “accuracy” and an evaluation metric that is suitable for imbalanced data “balanced accuracy (BA)” to gain information from the confusion matrix regarding accuracy and BA values in case of ovarian cancer classification.Methods: This study use Classification and Regression Tree (CART) as the classifier. CART optimized by pruning. CART optimal is determined from the results of CART complexity analysis and confusion matrix.Results: The confusion matrix and CART interpretations in this research show that CART with low complexity is still able to predict majority class respondents well. However, when none of the data in the minority class was classified correctly, the accuracy value was still quite high, namely 86.97% and 88.03% respectively at the training and testing stages, while the BA value at both stages was only 50%.Novelty: It is very important to ensure that the evaluation metrics used match the characteristics of the data being processed. This research illustrate the difference between accuracy and BA. It concluded that that classification of an imbalanced dataset without doing resampling can use BA as evaluation metric, because based on the results, BA is more fairly to both classes.

Abstract

Purpose: Comparing 2 models or prototype programs which can recognize Indonesian Sign Language System or Sistem Isyarat Bahasa Indonesia (SIBI) fonts from hand gesture and translate it’s into writing Messages in real-time.Methods: After selecting datasets and reprocessed by the researcher into 1 dataset, which are a combination of several sign image datasets of the SIBI letters images available on the Kaggle website, the dataset is converted into landmarks. The landmarks are divided into 26 sign classes and preprocessed to a total of 19,826 rows of data, and then divided into 67% training data and 33% test data. Next, both K-NN and Random Forest algorithm are implemented into different program and get tested into 2 different tests, model evaluation and real-time. At the end, the result is compared to see the increase of accuracy level of both K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) and Random Forest algorithm.Result: The constructed and trained model is then evaluated and the results of Precision, Recall, Accuracy, and F1-Score are 99.88% using the Random Forest algorithm. The results of real-time program testing with the K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm get higher results, where the average accuracy value reaches 99%.Novelty: From the result shows that the model built with the Random Forest algorithm is superior, but the K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm is better in real-time testing. Therefore, image data and its diversity should be increased, in order to improve recognition accuracy. The program could be enhanced by adding a function where the program can recognize hand gesture, not only one or two hands but also can recognize a hand gesture with movements so the program can recognize static and dynamic letter (required hands movement).

Abstract

Purpose: Spatial data is used to display digital maps. Geographic information systems' access performance depends on spatial data formats. This study compared JSON and MySQL database data display speeds. Open-source RDBMSs work with various programming languages. JSON displays data in text format. The purpose of this study is to select spatial data for polygon and multipolygon Geographic Information Systems (GIS).Design of study: access speed to the GIS determined the method. This study evaluated how effectively JSON and MySQL displayed digital maps in GIS using two types of geographical data. JSON was in the server directory, and MySQL was on the database server. To measure performance, these two spatial data sets were compared using the same server parameters. Testers employed various tools, operating systems, devices, and browsers.Result: JSON data is stored on a live server and is easier to access while having more data. This test compares file size and speed on three online devices. This test generates JSON as the fastest geographic data, with an average access time of 3.9 seconds and 8.5 MB loaded. MySQL, which averages 9.7 seconds, loads 6.3 MB of files. Despite its larger file size, JSON is faster for spatial data, according to tests.Originality: Its comparison of JSON and MySQL databases based on its application for geographical data display in GIS is unique. This test offers geographic data in JSON faster than MYSQL. JSON can be used to choose location data that GIS can readily access.

Abstract

This study delves into comparing LSTM and GRU, two recurrent neural network (RNN) models, for classifying emotion data through electroencephalography (EEG) signals. Both models adeptly handle sequential data challenges, showcasing their unique strengths. In EEG emotion dataset experiments, LSTM demonstrated superior performance in emotion classification compared to GRU, despite GRU’s quicker training processes. Evaluation metrics encompassing accuracy, recall, F1-score, and area under the curve (AUC) underscored LSTM’s dominance, which was particularly evident in the ROC curve analysis. This research sheds light on the nuanced capabilities of these RNN models, offering valuable insights into their efficacy in emotion classification tasks based on EEG data. The study explores parameters, such as the number of layers, neurons, and the utilization of dropout, providing a detailed analysis of their impact on emotion recognition accuracy.Purpose: The proposed model in this study is the result of optimizing LSTM and GRU networks through careful parameter tuning to find the best model for classifying EEG emotion data. The experimental results indicate that the LSTM model can achieve an accuracy level of up to 100%.Methods: To improve the accuracy of the LSTM and GRU methods in this research, hyperparameter tuning techniques were applied, such as adding layers, dense layers, flattening layers, selecting the number of neurons, and introducing dropout to mitigate the risk of overfitting. The goal was to find the best model for both methods.Results: The proposed model in this study is capable of classifying EEG emotion data very effectively. The experimental results demonstrate that the LSTM model achieves a maximum accuracy of 100%, while the GRU model achieves a highest accuracy of approximately 98%.Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in the optimization of hyperparameters for both LSTM and GRU methods, leading to the development of novel architectures capable of effectively classifying EEG emotion data.

Abstract

Purpose: Malaria, particularly the Falciparum strain, is a deadly disease caused by Plasmodium falciparum. Malaria diagnosis heavily relies on a microscopist's expertise. To expedite identification, machine learning research has been extensively conducted. However, it has not yet achieved high accuracy, partly due to the use of microscopic images as the dataset. Otsu thresholding, an optimal image segmentation method, maximizes pixel variance to separate the foreground (objects of interest) from the background, which is especially effective in various lighting conditions. Otsu thresholding aims to enhance accuracy and reliability in detecting and classifying Plasmodium falciparum parasites in blood samples.Methods: Dataset of microscopic images of thin blood smears with Plasmodium falciparum, taken from several sources, such as the UC Irvine Machine Learning Repository (UCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Kaggle, and Public Health Image Library (PHIL). The methodology combines various image processing techniques, including illumination correction, contrast enhancement, and noise filtering, to prepare the images effectively. The subsequent segmentation using Otsu thresholding method isolates the parasite regions of interest. The classification process involving CNN and SVM evaluates the performance of accuracy to identify different stages of Plasmodium falciparum parasites.Results: The research found the effectiveness of the Otsu thresholding segmentation method in identifying Plasmodium falciparum parasites in microscopic images. By utilizing Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers, the study achieved impressive accuracy rates, with the CNN achieving 96.5% accuracy and the SVM achieving 95.7%.Novelty: This research recorded significant improvement over previous studies that utilized feature extraction and selection methods. At the same time, previous research achieved an accuracy of 82.67. The key innovation here is the adoption of the Otsu thresholding segmentation method, which enhances the identification of Plasmodium falciparum parasites in microscopic images by integrating traditional image processing techniques like Otsu thresholding with modern machine learning methods like CNN and SVM. This significant improvement suggests that the proposed approach offers a more robust and reliable solution for malaria diagnosis.
