Implementation of the K-Nearest Neighbor Algorithm for Birth Rate Prediction
This study aims to predict the monthly birth rate using the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) regression algorithm. The dataset consists of historical data from 2010 to 2020, covering six districts and including variables such as total population, number of couples of reproductive age, family planning participation rate, and monthly birth rate as the prediction target. Data preprocessing involved handling missing values and applying Min-Max normalization. To maintain the time-series nature of the data, a chronological split was used, with 576 records from 2010 to 2018 for training and 216 records from 2019 to 2020 for testing. The model was evaluated using Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and R-squared (R²). The best performance was achieved at K = 7, with MAE = 19.94, RMSE = 30.91, and R² = 0.34. Additionally, the KNN model was compared with Linear Regression and Decision Tree, where KNN outperformed both alternatives. The final model was implemented in a web-based application to facilitate demographic data management and automatic birth rate prediction per district. This system is expected to support policy planning in the fields of population control and public health.This study aims to predict the monthly birth rate using the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) regression algorithm.

Stunting Risk Detection and Food Recommendation via Maternal Diagnosis Using the CF Method
Stunting in children often stems from maternal health conditions during pregnancy. This study aims to develop an intelligent rule-based IF–THEN system using the Certainty Factor method as a decision-support tool for the early detection of stunting risk factors. The detection is performed indirectly by diagnosing maternal health conditions during pregnancy. The knowledge base was constructed through interviews with obstetricians and nutritionists, encompassing 20 symptoms categorized into three primary conditions namely Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED), anemia, and preeclampsia. A total of 119 pregnant women from 11 villages in Muara Satu District participated as respondents. Implementation results revealed that among the respondents, 20 were identified with CED, 96 had anemia, and 3 exhibited signs of preeclampsia. Based on Certainty Factor (CF) calculations, the confidence distribution for CED included 2 respondents with CF <50%, 5 respondents within the 50–80% range, and 13 respondents with CF >80%. For anemia, 1 respondent had a CF value <50%, 4 fell within the 50–80% range, and 91 respondents had CF values above 80%. Meanwhile, for preeclampsia, all respondents exceeded the 50% CF threshold, with 1 respondent in the 50–80% range and 2 respondents >80%. In addition to diagnosis, the system provides tailored meal recommendations (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) based on the identified health conditions. Expert validation indicated a 90% agreement rate. However, results still require confirmation through clinical examinations and consultations to ensure medical accuracy
Support Vector Machine Classification Algorithm for Detecting DDoS Attacks on Network Traffic
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks represent a significant danger in network security because they can lead to extensive service interruptions. With these attacks increasingly mirroring regular traffic, smart and effective detection systems are essential. This research seeks to assess the efficacy of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification algorithm in identifying DDoS attacks in network traffic. The data utilized is CICIDS2017, focusing on the subset Friday-WorkingHours-Afternoon-DDos.pcap_ISCX.csv, which contains both legitimate traffic and DDoS attacks like DoS-Hulk, DoS-GoldenEye, and DDoS. The preprocessing stage included eliminating duplicates and null entries, label binary encoding, normalization through Min-Max Scaler, and feature selection applying the Chi-Square technique. The data was divided into 80% for training and 20% for testing purposes. The Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel was utilized to train the SVM model, and hyperparameter optimization was performed with GridSearchCV. The evaluation of the model\u27s performance was conducted through accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, confusion matrix, and visual representations including ROC and Precision-Recall Curves. The findings indicate that prior to tuning, the model reached an accuracy of 97%, which increased to 99% post-tuning, accompanied by an F1-score of 0.99. This shows that the SVM algorithm, when paired with appropriate preprocessing and optimization, is very efficient in identifying DDoS attacks within network traffic.Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks represent a significant danger in network security because they can lead to extensive service interruptions.

Detection of Ripeness in Oil Palm Fresh Fruit Bunches Using the YOLO12S Algorithm on Digital Images
Indonesia is the world\u27s largest producer of palm oil, with a production volume reaching 46.82 million tons in 2022. This industry heavily relies on the quality of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) harvests, which is determined by the accuracy of ripeness at the time of harvest. Unfortunately, ripeness assessment of FFB is still conducted manually and subjectively by field workers, posing risks to both efficiency and production accuracy. Although various studies have employed YOLOv5 and YOLOv8 for fruit ripeness detection, few have explored the potential of YOLO12s in classifying FFB ripeness in a comprehensive and efficient manner. In this study, we present the application of the YOLO12s algorithm to automatically classify the ripeness levels of oil palm FFB using digital images. The YOLO12s model was trained on 14,620 FFB images categorized into four ripeness levels: unripe, under-ripe, ripe, and overripe. Evaluation results showed a precision of 93.1%, recall of 95.9%, [email protected] of 97.8%, and [email protected]–0.95 of 78.8%. The model was able to perform inference in approximately 4.7 milliseconds per image and demonstrated good generalization despite challenges related to varying lighting conditions. These results indicate that YOLO12s holds great potential to replace subjective manual methods with a more accurate, consistent, and efficient classification solution to support the harvesting process in the palm oil industry.Indonesia is the world\u27s largest producer of palm oil, with a production volume reaching 46.82 million tons in 2022.

A Hybrid Framework Based on YOLOv8 and Vision Transformer for Multi-Class Detection and Classification of Coffee Fruit Maturity Levels
Detection and classification of coffee cherries based on maturity levels present a significant challenge in agricultural product processing systems, primarily due to the high visual similarity among classes within a single bunch. This study aims to develop a multi-class detection and classification system for coffee cherries by integrating YOLOv8 and Vision Transformer (ViT) as a classification enhancer. The initial detection process is conducted using YOLOv8 to identify and automatically crop coffee cherry objects from bunch images. These cropped images are then re-classified using the Vision Transformer to improve prediction accuracy. The training process was carried out with a learning rate of 0.0001, a batch size of 16, and epoch variations of 50, 100, and 150. Evaluation results demonstrate that the integration of YOLOv8 and ViT significantly improves classification accuracy compared to using YOLOv8 alone. At 100 epochs, the YOLOv8+ViT model achieved an accuracy of 89.52%, a precision of 90.43%, and a recall of 89.52%, outperforming the standalone YOLOv8 model, which only reached an accuracy of 75.44%. These results indicate that the Vision Transformer effectively enhances classification performance, particularly for visually similar coffee cherry classes. The integration of these two methods offers a promising alternative solution for improving image-based multi-class classification in agriculture and other domains involving complex visual objects
