Historical Bitcoin price data is used as input to train and test both algorithms. Experimental results show that the K-NN algorithm produces a Root Mean Square Error (RSME) of 389,770 and a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 89,261, while the Neural Network has an RSME of 614,825 and an MAE of 284,190. Performance comparison analysis shows that, on this dataset, K-NN has better performance in predicting Bitcoin prices compared to Neural Network. These findings provide important insights for the selection of crypto asset price prediction models, especially Bitcoin, in financial and investment environments</p> Eko Aziz Apriadi, Sriyanto, Sri Lestari, Suhendro Yusuf Irianto Copyright (c) 2024 Eko Aziz Apriadi, Sriyanto, Sri Lestari, Suhendro Yusuf Irianto http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13418 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Edge Detection Model Performance Using Canny, Prewitt and Sobel in Face Detection https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13497 <p>Detection of objects in the form of objects, humans and other objects at this time has been widely applied in many aspects of life. The help of this technology can facilitate human work, one of which is facial detection to get information about a person's identity. Face identification and detection is closely related to Data Mining science with Image Processing sub-science. This facial detection and recognition can use several technical approaches, one of which is to use edge detection. Edge detection is one of the basic operations of image processing. In the image classification process, edge detection is required before image segmentation processing. There are several methods that can be used to perform edge detection such as Canny, Prewitt and Sobel. These three methods are methods that have accurate and good detection results, with the advantages of each method having its own added value. From the results of previous studies that stated these three methods have good results, it became interesting to conduct a comparative study of these three methods in detecting edges in facial images. Edge detection applied to this study identifies facial images, and will get similarities with the original image from the result analysis process, and is reinforced by measurement results using the Mean Square Error error degree. The final result of this study states that this study the most optimal Mean Square Error measurement results obtained the final results in the Canny method of 10, the Prewitt method of 41 and Sobel of 29. These results show that the value of the Canny method has the smallest Mean Square Error value, which indicates that the Canny method on facial image edge detection has the most optimal results.</p> I Wayan Rangga Pinastawa, Musthofa Galih Pradana, Khoironi Copyright (c) 2024 I Wayan Rangga Pinastawa, Musthofa Galih Pradana, Khoironi http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13497 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Optimizing Facial Expression Recognition with Image Augmentation Techniques: VGG19 Approach on FERC Dataset https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13507 <p>In the field of facial expression recognition (FER), the availability of balanced and representative datasets is key to success in training accurate models. However, Facial Expression Recognition Challenge (FERC) datasets often face the challenge of class imbalance, where some facial expressions have a much smaller number of samples compared to others. This issue can result in biased and unsatisfactory model performance, especially in recognizing less common facial expressions. Data augmentation techniques are becoming an important strategy as they can expand the dataset by creating new variations of existing samples, thus increasing the variety and diversity of the data. Data augmentation can be used to increase the number of samples for less common facial expression classes, thus improving the model's ability to recognize and understand diverse facial expressions. The augmentation results are then combined with balancing techniques such as SMOTE coupled with undersampling to improve model performance. In this study, VGG19 is used to support better model performance. This will provide valuable guidelines for optimizing more advanced CNN models in the future and may encourage further research in creating more innovative augmentation techniques.</p> Fahma Inti Ilmawati, Kusrini, Tonny Hidayat Copyright (c) 2024 Fahma Inti Ilmawati, Kusrini, Tonny Hidayat http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13507 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 SIAKAD Mobile With API Service To Improve Academic Services https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13519 <p style="font-weight: 400;">Developing SIAKAD (commonly called SIAM, Student Academic Information System) Mobile using API Service to improve academic services for students is the goal of researchers doing so because it supports the implementation of education to create better information distribution services for everyone who wants access to it. And this also has an impact on academic performance, it is easier to organize lecturer attendance schedules, value recapitulation, and so on. Conventional SIAKAD (SIAM) which can be accessed via a computer or laptop has limited accessibility and practicality, which can hinder students from accessing academic information flexibly. Therefore, after researchers have examined and paid attention to several systems that can be implemented to assist users in accessing them, the development of SIAKAD in the form of a mobile application is a solution to increasing accessibility and ease of access to academic information. The API service is used as a communication bridge between the SIAKAD mobile application and the backend system. Through this, the Mobile Application can communicate (send requests and receive responses from the backend system) quickly and efficiently. But to shorten the application development time we use the SCRUM method and for the business process model, we use BPMN to create, design and design this application. The results of this study the authors see a compare of the time that can increase after using Mobile in access SIAKAD (SIAM).</p> Amir Mahmud Husein, Andre Juan Simanjuntak, Candra Julius Sinaga, Mei Monica Tampubolon, Priskila Natalia C.

Skin cancer in general there are 2, namely melanoma and non-melanoma. Cases that are often encountered are in non-melanoma types. A critical factor in the treatment of skin cancer is early diagnosis. Doctors usually use the biopsy method to detect skin cancer. Computer-based technology provides convenient, cheaper, and faster diagnosis of skin cancer symptoms. This study aims to identify the type of skin cancer. The data used in the study were 6 types of skin cancer, namely Basal Cell Carcinoma, Dermatofibroma, Melanoma, Nevus image, Pigmented Benign Keratosis image, or Vascular Lesion, with a total of 60 dermoscopy images obtained from the Kaggle site. Dermoscopy image processing begins with a pre-processing process, which converts RGB images to LAB. After that, segmentation is carried out to separate objects from the background. The method of extracting shape and texture features is used to obtain the characteristics of dermoscopy images. As many as 2 types of shape features, namely eccentricity and metric, and 4 types of texture features, namely contrast, correlation, energy, and homogeneity. The result of this study is that it can identify the type of skin cancer based on image features that have been extracted using a program from the Matlab application. The technique of extracting shape and texture features is proven to work well in identifying the type of skin cancer. In the future it is expected to use more data, and add color features in identifying dermoscopy images.</p> Febri Aldi, Sumijan Copyright (c) 2024 Febri Aldi, Sumijan http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13557 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Integrated Selection of Permanent Teacher Appointments Recommended MCDM-AHP and WASPAS Methods https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13063 <p>The teacher's role is very important in improving the national learning system. Many honorary teachers are empowered in curriculum development in a number of schools who want to collaborate in improving the quality of their students. The purpose of this research is to provide rewards to honorary teachers who have long served for the progress of the nation in the world of education to be appointed as permanent teachers. The selection method was carried out through a criteria weighting technique with the MCDM-AHP method which was integrated with the WASPAS method. The technique of developing the MCDM-AHP method as an eigenvector measurement concept with proof of optimization through mathematical algebra matrices that is correlated with the Expert Choice application to get optimal values. The result optimization value is integrated with the WASPAS method as a determinant of the ranking system for permanent teacher candidates. This method is a unification of the concepts of the weight product model and weight sum model methods, so that it has special stages to support decision making with the WASPAS method. The results of selecting twelve honorary teachers for appointment as permanent teachers can be seen from the acquisition of the Qi optimization value as a ranking. The results of support for decision making for permanent teacher appointments with the highest optimization value were given to TC04 with a weight of 0.878; followed by a significant difference in the next rank. The findings of this study provide evidence that the integration of the MCDM-AHP and WASPAS methods provides continuous optimization results for decision-making support.</p> Akmaludin, Erene Gernaria Sihombing, Rinawati, Linda Sari Dewi, Ester Arisawati Copyright (c) 2023 Akmaludin, Erene Gernaria Sihombing, Rinawati, Linda Sari Dewi, Ester Arisawati http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13063 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Exploring Regional Development Patterns using Machine Learning: A Python-based Clustering Analysis of Human Development Index in West Java https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13561 <p>Many local governments now prioritize human development when trying to raise the standard of living and welfare of their citizens. Developing effective development policies in West Java, one of Indonesia's most populous provinces, requires a thorough understanding of human development patterns in various districts and cities. Using the Human Development Index (HDI) as the primary indicator, we examine regional development patterns in this study using machine learning techniques, specifically clustering analysis. This study's scope includes an HDI analysis for each of West Java's 27 districts and cities from 2017 to 2022. Finding clusters of districts or cities with comparable human development traits and comparing and contrasting them are our primary goals. We provide a solution that allows for improved mapping and comprehension of human development patterns in West Java by utilizing the Python programming language as the primary tool and the K-Means clustering algorithm. The study's findings indicate that there are three major categories of districts and cities, each with a distinct human development pattern. By using clustering analysis, we can determine which districts or cities within each group have the highest and lowest levels of human development. This information helps policymakers plan more inclusive and sustainable development. In conclusion, a clustering analysis approach based on machine learning can be a helpful tool for understanding and creating more focused and efficient regional development policies in West Java and other areas.</p> Kartika Mariskhana, Ita Dewi Sintawati, Widiarina Copyright (c) 2024 Kartika Mariskhana, Ita Dewi Sintawati, Widiarina http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13561 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Analyzing Public Sentiment Regarding the Qatar 2023 World Cup Debate Using TF-IDF and K-Nearest Neighbor Weighting https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13275 <p>This research aims to uncover the sentiment of Twitter users regarding the polemics surrounding the 2023 Qatar World Cup using a text-based sentiment analysis approach.

The process of determining nominations for the best administrators is less accurate, requiring computational methods to classify which administrators fall into the best category. In the context of data mining, classification is an important aspect. One of the classification models used is Naïve Bayes which focuses on class probability, and Decision Tree C4.5 which produces a decision tree to determine the priority of indicators that are most influential in predicting the best management. Both of these algorithms have their respective advantages. This research aims to analyze and compare the performance of the Naïve Bayes and Decision Tree classification algorithms. The comparative results of testing the Naïve Bayes and C4.5 algorithms in determining the nominations for the best administrators at the Nurul Jadid Paiton Probolinggo Islamic Boarding School on 455 administrator data tested in this study show that there is a fairly large comparison of accuracy. Naïve Bayes with Forward Selection has an accuracy rate of 91.21%, higher than Naïve Bayes itself whose accuracy results are only 87.64%. there is a difference of 3.57%. Likewise, the accuracy of C4.5 with Forward Selection has an accuracy rate of 90.99%, higher than C4.5 alone which has an accuracy rate of 90.11%. there is a difference of 0.88%. So in the comparison between 4 algorithm model trials, Naïve Bayes and Forward Selection had the most dominant accuracy with an accuracy result of 91.21%.</p> Farhan Dardiri Copyright (c) 2024 Farhan http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13498 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 C4.5 Forward Selection Based Algorithm For Class Level Classification Of Nurul Jadid Islamic Boarding School Students https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13514 <p>Pesantren is an Islamic educational institution that plays a central role in the development of education in Indonesia. Although originally established for Islamic religious education (Pendidikan Agama Islam or PAI), pesantren has evolved into an educational institution that contributes to both scholarly and community service aspects. According to the regulations set by the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia under Number 31 of 2020, pesantren is a community-based institution that upholds the teachings of Islam rahmatan lil'alamin (Islam as a blessing for all) and the noble values of the Indonesian nation. Pesantren education is efficient because it is conducted in a boarding school setting, which shapes the character of its students or 'santri.' However, the current method of determining the grade levels of santri is often inaccurate, relying solely on the average scores of entrance exams without considering essential aspects of subjects. This leads to a decrease in students' interest in learning and delays in achieving higher levels of education. By utilizing data mining techniques, such as the C4.5 algorithm based on Forward Selection, it is possible to address this issue and enhance the accuracy of placing santri into their appropriate grade levels at the Nurul Jadid Paiton Probolinggo pesantren. This improvement can make the pesantren education system more effective in managing student learning</p> Muhammad Isomul Irfan Copyright (c) 2024 Muhammad Isomul Irfan http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13514 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 GOVERNANCE EVALUATION ELECTRONIC SECURITY SYSTEM (ESS) (Case Study: ABC Central Bank) https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13540 <p>As we know, the role of the security system has a very important role for a state institution to provide security and comfort in carrying out its functions, such as the ABC central bank. A good security system is a security system that is supported by a reliable electronic security system and is composed of several components such as a CCTV monitoring system, Access Control System (ACS), Security Alarm System (SAS), and Fire Alarm System (FAS). This system is very necessary to provide support for the duties of these state institutions to protect devices, data and electronic infrastructure from potential threats and security risks. The main functions of electronic security systems include prevention, detection, response to incidents, and recovery after disturbances/disasters. For this reason, efforts are needed to provide an evaluation of the system maturity level and information security management as a form of risk management to maintain the continuity of system use. This research uses the INDEKS KAMI 4.1 to map ESS governance maturity and the OCTAVE Allegro method to analyze information security management. From the analysis carried out, it has been concluded that the ESS implementation has been operated well in accordance with the security system requirements and has reached a good level of governance maturity. Information security management analysis carried out using the OCTAVE Allegro method has succeeded in identifying information security management with the result that information security management has been implemented well. This is proven by the existence of indicators, namely CCTV recording data, log systems as information assets that have been managed and distributed according to authority</p> RZ Abdul Aziz, Anas Ikhsanudin, M Said Hasibuan Copyright (c) 2024 RZ Abdul Aziz, Anas Ikhsanudin, M Said Hasibuan http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13540 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Comparison of Naïve Bayes and SVM in Sentiment Analysis of Product Reviews on Marketplaces https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13559 <p>At this time more and more people are switching to shopping online in existing marketplaces such as Shopee. Marketplaces provide various advantages and disadvantages to customers such as lower costs and goods sent not according to orders. Product reviews from customers greatly affect the sales level of business people so that sentiment analysis is carried out. The importance of conducting sentiment analysis of product reviews in the marketplace is to add an overview of how the product is received by users. This research uses Naïve Bayes and SVM algorithms for sentiment analysis of beauty care product review datasets obtained from Shopee scraping results. This research implements k fold cross validation for data splitting process of 10 folds. The Naïve Bayes algorithm obtained the highest accuracy value of 85.53% on fold 2 and the lowest accuracy value of 77.16% on fold 3. While the SVM algorithm obtained the highest accuracy value of 88.58% on fold 2 and the lowest accuracy value of 82.99% on fold 7. With this it is stated that SVM can work better for sentiment analysis of beauty care product reviews on the Shopee marketplace because it gets a higher average accuracy value of 86.14% compared to the Naïve Bayes algorithm.</p> Nurul Zalza Bilal Jannah, Kusnawi Copyright (c) 2024 Kusnawi Kusnawi, Nurul Zalza Bilal Jannah http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13559 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Comparison of Smartphone Technology using AHP, ELECTRE, and PROMETHEE Methods https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13085 <p>The progress of smartphone technology is now very rapid, supported by many renewable features, even many users are competing to get the latest products without regard to the costs that have been incurred. The problem that arises is that it is increasingly difficult to select technology-based products with many criteria. The purpose of writing this paper is to provide the best solution for selecting technology-based products with multi-criteria to suit user needs by taking into account the costs incurred effectively and the use of contradictory multi-criteria applications. The presence of technology products always has many criteria that make it more difficult for users to choose products as the right choice according to their needs, thus the right method is needed as a solution to obtain technology-based products such as smartphones. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is used for the evaluation and selection process. This AHP method will collaborate with the ELECTRE and PROMETHEE methods as a comparison solution for smartphone product selection. The resulting comparison will be an applied model for smartphone selection that produces the best decision-making support according to user needs. The results of the collaborative implementation process of the ELECTRE and PROMETHEE methods provide a decision on the rating system. The collaborative application of the AHP method to the ELECTRE and PROMETHEE methods provides optimal decision support for the selection process, so that this can be used as a comparison material in making decisions regarding the selection of smartphones as technology-based products.</p> Akmaludin, Adhi Dharma Suriyanto , Nandang Iriadi, Kudiantoro Widianto Copyright (c) 2023 Akmaludin, Adhi Dharma Suriyanto , Kudiantoro Widianto http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13085 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Analyzing UI and UX of Verval PTK: Impact on Elementary School Data Precision https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13572 <p>This study explores the implementation of the Verval PTK application in elementary school data management in Kabupaten Jember, with emphasis on its impact and precision. The research methodology adopts a differential qualitative descriptive design, with the main focus on elementary schools in Kabupaten Jember that have integrated Verval PTK. Five Elementary Schools were involved in the study. Among others, SD Negeri Jember Lor 2, SD Negeri Kepatihan 1, SD Negeri Jember Kidul 2, SD Negeri Kebonsari 1, and SD Negeri Patrang 1. In the analysis, the study involved technical aspects such as usability tests, performance measurements using Lighthouse, and A/B tests. However, challenges related to platform accessibility and stability are still a concern. Performance measurement using Lighthouse shows excellent scores, although SEO scores require further attention to improve. A/B tests highlight significant improvements in time efficiency and data accuracy through Verval PTK implementations, but some low scores require more in-depth analysis. A number of technical recommendations were put forward to improve the security, stability, accessibility, and SEO optimization of Verval PTK. Regular software updates, efficient error management, and real-time performance monitoring are key focuses to support continuous development. This recommendation is directed to strengthen the role of Verval PTK in supporting efficient and accurate school data management.</p> Shamsul Huda, Ari Eko Wardoyo, Henny Wahyu Sulistyo Copyright (c) 2024 Shamsul Huda, Ari Eko Wardoyo, Henny Wahyu Sulistyo http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13572 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Comparative Study: Preemptive Shortest Job First and Round Robin Algorithms https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/12525 <p>Abstract: Operating system is a software acting as an interface between computer hardware and user. Operating system is known as a resource&nbsp; manager. The main responsibility of operating system is to handle resources of computer system. Scheduling is a key concept in computer multitasking and multiprocessing operating system design by switching the CPU among process. Shortest job first (SJF) and round robin are two wellknown algorithms in CPU processing. For shortest job first, this algorithm can be preemptived. In preemptive shortest job first, when a new process coming in, the process can be interupted. Where with round robin algorithm there will be time slices, context switching, or also called quantum, between process. In this journal we wil discuss comparative study between preemptive shortest job first and round robin algorithms. Three comparative studies will be discussed to understand these two algorithms more deeply. For all comparative study, the average waiting time and average turnaround time is more for round robin algorithm. In the first comparative study, we get average waiting time 52% more. For average turnaround time, 30% more. In second comparative analysis, we get 52 % average waiting time more and we get 35 % average turnaround time more. For third comparative analysis, average waiting time we get 50% more and for average turnaround time, we get 28% more. Thus it is concluded in our comparative study for these kind of data the preemptive shortest job first is more efficient then the round robin algorithm.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Keywords: comparative study, premptive shortest job first algorithm, round robin algorithm, turn around time, average waiting time, time slice</p> Rakhmat Purnomo, Tri Dharma Putra Copyright (c) 2023 Rakhmat Purnomo, Tri Dharma Putra http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/12525 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Feasibility Analysis of Bengkel Koding Website Using Black Box Testing and Boundary Value Analysis https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13589 <p>In an era of rapid technological development, application development has become common, especially in coding. However, most websites do not give appropriate assignments and instructors to help improve coding skills. Because of this, the Bengkel Koding of Dian Nuswantoro University Semarang is a solution to improving the quality of coding learning. This research aims to identify the shortcomings in the website and ensure that the website functions as expected by the users. By testing the application like this, researchers can know which problems can affect the user experience. This research uses one of the frequently used tests, namely Black Box testing. The objective is to verify that the system's functions, inputs, and outputs align with the specified requirements. In addition to the Black Box method, this research uses a technique called Boundary Value Analysis. This technique is to identify errors or bugs that can affect the user experience by focusing on the input value boundary. The test results will use a quality ratio that will determine whether or not the system is suitable for use by users.

According to statistics from the 2009 Indonesian Health Profile, skin illness is the third most common ailment seen in outpatient settings across the country's hospitals. Therefore, maintaining healthy skin is important because it protects the body's internal organs from injury and attack by pathogens. The development of image classification, such as the classification of skin diseases, has become a focus in the health sector. This research analyses the performance of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) in web-based skin disease classification and overcomes the problem of imbalanced training data. With data augmentation and preprocess, this research improves data generalization and compares performance metrics such as Recall, Accuracy, and F1 Score. The results show that the average accuracy of CNN is 83.8%, while SVM reaches 81%. Although both models have high metrics for the normal class, other more complicated classes can only be handled by CNN with a value of more than 0.9. Apart from that, the CNN method also provides a higher Confidence Score than SVM, as well as a faster execution time. In conclusion, the CNN method is superior and recommended for skin disease classification based on web applications based on various performance test results.</p> Ahmad Ilham Kushartanto, Fauziah, Rima Tamara Aldisa Copyright (c) 2024 Ahmad Ilham Kushartanto, Fauziah, Rima Tamara Aldisa http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13349 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Development of an Intelligent Imaging System for Determining Maturity of Copra Flesh in Coconuts Using Shape and Texture Extraction https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13369 <p>Copra is dried coconut meat that is used to produce coconut oil.

One of the main challenges faced in the face detection process is the complex background. Complex backgrounds, such as many color combinations in the image, can interfere with the detection process. To overcome this challenge, this research uses a combination of two methods: Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) and Haar Cascade Classifier. Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) is a method used in image processing to identify and describe unique features in an image. The SIFT method looks for keypoint descriptors in images that can be used as a reference in comparing different images. After the keypoint descriptor is found with SIFT, the Haar Cascade Classifier method is used to detect faces in the image. Haar Cascade Classifier is a practical algorithm for object detection in images. After facial features are extracted with these two methods, the results are compared with the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) approach. This research involves the introduction of 28 color images with complex backgrounds. The results of combining these two methods produce an accuracy of 81.75%. This shows that combining these two methods effectively overcomes complex background challenges in face detection.</p> Dyah Kartika Damarsiwi, Elindra Ambar Pambudi, Maulida Ayu Fitriani, Feri Wibowo Copyright (c) 2024 Dyah Kartika Damarsiwi, Elindra Ambar Pambudi, Maulida Ayu Fitriani, Feri Wibowo http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13556 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Music Genre Classification Using K-Nearest Neighbor and Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/12912 <p>Music genre classification plays a pivotal role in organizing and accessing vast music collections, enhancing user experiences, and enabling efficient music recommendation systems.

This is caused by lack of nutrition over a long period of time, exposure to repeated infections, and lack of stimulation. This malnutrition condition is influenced by the mother's health during pregnancy, the health status of adolescents, as well as the economy and culture and the environment, such as sanitation and access to health services. To find out predictions of stunting, currently we still use a common method, namely Secondary Data Analysis, namely by conducting surveys and research to collect data regarding stunting. This data includes risk factors related to stunting, such as maternal nutritional status, child nutritional intake, access to health services, sanitation, and other socioeconomic factors. This secondary data analysis can provide an overview of the prevalence of stunting and the contributing factors. To overcome this, the right solution is needed, one solution that can be used is data mining techniques, where data mining can be used to carry out analysis and predictions for the future, and provide useful information for business or health needs. Based on this analysis, this research will use the Bagging method and Random Forest Algorithm to obtain the accuracy level of stunting predictions in toddlers. Bagging or Bootstrap Aggregation is an ensemble method that can improve classification by randomly combining classifications on the training dataset which can reduce variation and avoid overfitting. Random Forest is a powerful algorithm in machine learning that combines decisions from many independent decision trees to improve prediction performance and model stability. By combining the Bagging method and the Random Forest algorithm, it is hoped that it will be able to provide better stunting prediction results in toddlers. This research uses a dataset with a total of 10,001 data records, 7 attributes and 1 attribute class. Based on the test results using the Bagging method and the Random Forest algorithm in this research, the results obtained were class precision yes 91.72%, class recall yes 98.84%, class precision no 93.55%, class recall no 65.28%, and accuracy of 91.98%.</p> Juwariyem, Sriyanto, Sri Lestari, Chairani Copyright (c) 2024 Juwariyem, Sriyanto, Sri Lestari, Chairani http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13448 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Diabetes Disease Detection Classification Using Light Gradient Boosting (LightGBM) With Hyperparameter Tuning https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13530 <p>Diabetes is a condition caused by an imbalance between the need for insulin in the body and insufficient insulin production by the pancreas, causing an increase in blood sugar concentration.

In Indonesia, Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is one of the most prevalent CVDs. However, due to the high cost of drugs, lengthy treatment duration, and various supporting examinations required, treating CHD can be very expensive. An obstacle to treating heart disease in Indonesia is the insufficient number of cardiologists and experts experienced in interventional cardiology. Along with technological developments, the computer science community is encouraged to contribute to the medical field. For instance, using an electrocardiogram (ECG) can help prevent and minimize problems arising from heart disease. An Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a medical test that measures and records the heart’s electrical activity using a machine that detects electrical impulses. The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in ECG is rapidly increasing and has shown to have great potential in improving the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac patients. AI has become a valuable tool in helping doctors diagnose, predict risk, and manage heart disease with greater accuracy, speed, and precision. One of the machine learning methods used in this research is the decision tree method, which is often employed to make decisions. The decision tree method exhibited promising results, with an accuracy rate of 99% in identifying heart defects at an early stage. This method has significant potential to assist doctors in diagnosing heart defects at an early stage with high accuracy.</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> Jepri Banjarnahor, Friska Sinaga, Dedi Setiadi Sitorus, Wahyu Adventus Andreas Sitanggang, Mardi Turnip Copyright (c) 2024 Jepri Banjarnahor, Friska Sinaga, Dedi Setiadi Sitorus, Wahyu Adventus Andreas Sitanggang, Mardi Turnip http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13596 Mon, 08 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Improving Digital Image Clarity: A Study on the Application of Histogram Equalization for Noise Correction https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13564 <p>This study aims to improve the clarity of digital images by examining the application of the histogram equalization method for noise correction.

By implementing these two services, it is expected that there is no need to pay attention to the problem of Storage needs that are growing at any time and no need to worry about the need for server configuration because both of these things will be fully done by GCR. Implementing Cloud Computing will provide a variety of benefits in addition to those previously mentioned, such as: being able to access data from anywhere and at any time. This implementation is expected to be able to run OutfitHub applications in a Cloud environment in a serverless computing manner without requiring the design of unnecessary virtual machines.</p> Derryl Reflando Tarigan, Muhammad Irsan, Muhammad Faris Fathoni Copyright (c) 2024 Derryl Reflando Tarigan, Muhammad Irsan, Muhammad Faris Fathoni http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://www.polgan.ac.id/jurnal/index.php/sinkron/article/view/13387 Sun, 31 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000
