Coffee is a vital agricultural commodity, and precise classification of coffee beans is crucial for quality assessment and agricultural practices. In this study, we propose a methodology utilizing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) based on ResNet-101 architecture for coffee bean classification. The novelty of our approach lies in the integration of comprehensive feature extraction from grayscale coffee bean images, including mean, standard deviation, skewness, energy, entropy, and smoothness, with the transfer learning capabilities of CNN. Through this integration, we achieved exceptional classification performance, with the CNN model attaining accuracy, recall, precision, and F1-score metrics of 99.44% and 100% on the training data, and 100% on the testing data. These results underscore the robustness and generalization capability of our methodology in accurately classifying coffee bean types. While the dataset used in this study is experimental, the comprehensive feature extraction and the effectiveness of the CNN architecture suggest the potential for accurate classification of coffee bean types beyond the experimental data, provided the new data shares similar characteristics to the collected samples. For future research, we recommend exploring the integration of two transfer learning techniques within CNN architectures to further enhance coffee bean classification systems. Specifically, leveraging pre-trained CNN models as a foundation for feature extraction, while simultaneously fine-tuning specific layers to adapt to the nuances of coffee bean classification tasks, could offer improved model performance and scalability.Coffee is a vital agricultural commodity, and precise classification of coffee beans is crucial for quality assessment and agricultural practices.

Static Analysis-Based Security Enhancement for Mobile Applications Using Mobile Security Framework (MOBSF)
Mobile application security is crucial to protect users’ personal data and maintain trust in the application. Without proper security testing, an app becomes vulnerable to threats such as data theft and cyber attacks. This study aims to identify and fix security vulnerabilities in the XYZ mobile application, a social platform used to report domestic violence and child sexual abuse cases. The analysis was conducted using static analysis with the Mobile Security Framework (MOBSF). The XYZ app was developed using Flutter and falls under the hybrid application category. Since it handles sensitive information from victims and reporters, ensuring its security is essential. The analysis revealed four major vulnerabilities with high risk levels, mainly related to misconfiguration and weak security settings. After addressing these issues, the app’s security score improved from 37/100 (high risk) to 61/100 (low risk). These improvements were implemented in the final development phase before the app was released to users. MOBSF helped developers detect potential vulnerabilities early through static analysis, serving as a security baseline. This approach ensured the app no longer contained risks such as debug certificates, enabled debug mode, or support for outdated Android versions. The findings show that MOBSF-based security analysis is effective in detecting and reducing application security weaknesses, making the XYZ app more secure in protecting user data.Mobile application security is crucial to protect users’ personal data and maintain trust in the application.

Model training was conducted on Google Colab with data augmentation to enhance dataset variability and prevent overfitting. After 20 epochs, the model demonstrated strong performance in the ripe category (mAP50: 0.774, Precision: 0.645, Recall: 0.812) and satisfactory results for semi-ripe fruits (mAP50: 0.695, Precision: 0.624, Recall: 0.679). However, detection performance for unripe fruits was lower (mAP50: 0.4). The system achieved an inference time of 183.4 ms per image, with fast preprocessing and postprocessing (0.5 ms each), indicating its suitability for real-time applications. While the model performs well overall, further improvement is needed in detecting unripe coffee fruits for enhanced system effectiveness
Hierarchical Clustering of Education Indicators in Papua Island: A Ward’s Method Approach
Education development aims to ensure inclusive, equitable education and increase learning opportunities for all Indonesian citizens. Papua Island is still not an island with a high education level; data on education indicators indicate this in each Regency / City on the island of Papua, with a value below the national average. Identifying districts/cities is needed to improve education, so clustering is carried out using the Ward method. This research aims to group and map regencies/cities on the island of Papua based on education indicators. The results of this study are expected to be a consideration and benchmark for the government in making decisions regarding education in districts/cities on the island of Papua, considering the region\u27s characteristics. This is an applied research with the data type used, namely secondary data on education indicators in Papua Island in 2022. Data sources are obtained from the official website of the Central Bureau of Statistics of each province on the island of Papua. Four education indicators are taken into account in this research, namely the School Participation Rate (SPR), the Gross Enrollment Rate (GER), the Net Enrollment Ratio (NER), and the Average Years of Schooling (AYS), which are then detailed into 10 variables. The cluster analysis process uses Euclidean distance and cluster validation using the Dunn Index. The results showed that 3 clusters formed. Cluster 1 consists of 27 districts/cities; this first group is classified as a high level of education. Cluster 2 consists of 7 districts/cities with a medium level of education, and Cluster 3 has eight districts/cities with a low level of education—cluster results based on the highest Dunn Index validation value of 0.414
