Loan Repayment Prediction Using XGBoost and Neural Network in Japan's Technical Internship Training
Delayed repayment of financial aid among participants in Japan’s Technical Internship Training Program presents challenges for training institutions in managing funds efficiently. To address this issue, this study aims to compare the performance of two machine learning models: Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) in predicting the likelihood of delayed loan repayments. The research begins with data preprocessing, including handling missing values, normalization, and feature selection based on a correlation threshold of 0.06, where features with absolute correlation values below this threshold are excluded. Three models are tested: XGBoost Default, XGBoost optimized using GridSearchCV, and MLP. These models are evaluated using performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and ROC-AUC. The XGBoost Default model achieves the highest accuracy at 95% and precision of 95%, although its recall is slightly lower at 83%. Tuning XGBoost improves recall to 84%, albeit with a marginal reduction in accuracy to 94%. In contrast, the MLP model demonstrates the lowest performance, with an accuracy of 92% and recall of 74%, indicating limitations in identifying delayed repayments. XGBoost also outperforms MLP in terms of ROC-AUC, scoring 91% compared to MLP’s 86%. These findings suggest that XGBoost is the more effective model for this predictive task. The results have practical implications for training institutions, enabling better participant selection, reducing repayment delays, and supporting more effective financial aid management
Implementation of an Integrated Cloud-Based Electronic Medical Record System at Community Health Center
Klambir Lima is a village located in Hamparan Perak District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra Province. It is a small village with a dense population but has only one government community health center (puskesmas). This results in suboptimal patient services. Furthermore, there is no existing application for recording patient data or medical records that could assist in patient data management. Patient medical records are a crucial feature in healthcare services. They are useful for recording or storing a patient's health or illness history, which enables accurate treatment or medication tailored to the patient's needs. Therefore, the Klambir Lima Health Center requires an electronic medical records application based on Cloud Computing. Data will be stored in cloud storage, aiming to minimize damage or loss of data, which is a vital asset. In this research, the author developed the application using the R&D (Research and Development) method. The role and utility of the research were well established to ensure better implementation of the application. The research objective is to create a system capable of recording electronic-based medical records via cloud computing media. This will enable the Klambir Lima Health Center to improve its healthcare services for both BPJS (national health insurance) and non-BPJS patient
Explainable Machine Learning for Poverty Prediction in Central Java Regencies and Cities
Poverty remains a multidimensional challenge in Central Java, necessitating robust data-driven approaches to identify its socioeconomic determinants. This study applied six machine learning models, specifically Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Random Forest, CatBoost, LightGBM, Elastic Net Regression, and a Stacking ensemble using district-level data from Statistics Indonesia covering demographics, education, labor, infrastructure, and household welfare. Model evaluation combined an 80:20 hold-out split, 10-fold cross-validation, and noise perturbation tests. Results show that XGBoost achieved the best individual performance (MAE = 2,180.01; RMSE = 3,512.07; R² = 0.931), while the Stacking ensemble surpassed all single learners (MAE = 2,640.99; RMSE = 3,202.79; R² = 0.942). Interpretability was ensured through SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations), Partial Dependence Plots (PDP), and Accumulated Local Effects (ALE), consistently identifying Number of Households, Per Capita Expenditure, and Uninhabitable Houses as the most influential predictors. Counterfactual simulations indicated that increasing per capita expenditure by 10% could reduce the poverty index by 9.9%, while reducing household size by 10% lowered it by 11.3%. Robustness checks revealed Brebes as an influential district shaping model stability. Overall, the findings demonstrate that boosting and stacking ensembles, when combined with explainable AI tools, not only enhance predictive accuracy but also provide transparent, policy-relevant evidence to strengthen poverty alleviation programs in Central Java. This study contributes both methodological advances in explainable machine learning and practical insights for targeted poverty reduction strategies

Integration of YOLOv8 and FastAPI for Early Detection of Nail Diseases
Nails are important indicators of various health conditions, including fungal infections (onychomycosis), autoimmune disorders (psoriasis), and subungual melanoma (black line). However, early detection of these diseases remains limited due to low accessibility and public awareness. This study aims to develop an end-to-end, web-based early detection system for nail diseases by integrating the YOLOv8 object detection algorithm with the FastAPI framework. A total of 600 annotated nail images obtained from Kaggle were categorized into four classes: healthy nail, psoriasis, black line, and onychomycosis. The model was trained using PyTorch on Google Colab with GPU acceleration and evaluated using precision, recall, and mean Average Precision ([email protected]). The model achieved a precision of 93%, recall of 88%, and [email protected] of 89%. Manual testing on 100 images via the deployed web application showed an overall accuracy of 97%. Class-wise accuracy reached 100% for healthy nail and psoriasis, 92% for black line, and 96% for onychomycosis. These results demonstrate that the system performs reliably across various conditions. The main contribution of this study is the implementation of a real-time, web-integrated nail disease detection system that is accessible to both medical professionals and the general public. Future research may focus on expanding the dataset, optimizing model robustness under varied lighting and background conditions, and conducting clinical validation

Design of Intelligent Model for Text-Based Fake News Detection Using K-Nearest Neighbor Method
Text-based fake news detection is a crucial issue considering its negative impacts on society and individuals. One of the main impacts that has a significant and detrimental impact on society is disinformation, where false or misleading information can cause confusion and uncertainty in society. This can lead to misunderstandings and develop into riots in society which can lead to legal problems that are detrimental to society. In order to overcome this problem, a method is needed to detect fake news. This study aims to build a fake news detection method using machine learning, which is a technology widely used by researchers to detect and analyze past data. Various methods have been produced using machine learning, including the K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) method which is proposed as an effective solution to detect fake news. K-NN is a machine learning algorithm that works by classifying text based on its proximity to known data in feature space. This method is proposed because of its ability to handle non-linear data and its low complexity. The application of K-NN can increase the accuracy in detecting fake news by utilizing the characteristics of relevant text, thus helping in efforts to filter information and maintain the integrity of news circulating in the community. In a study conducted using the FakeNewsDetection dataset, the model evaluation results showed that KNN produced a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.011 and a Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of 0.077, better than the performance of other methods such as SVM and Neural Network
AHP-SWARA Implementation Method for Evaluation and Selection Employee Promotion
The evaluation process of employee selection is very important for organizations that want to carry out quality leadership, the purpose of this study is to objectively prove the results of the selection of job promotions that have been evaluated continuously every time leadership occurs. The evaluation results of the leadership selection process become routine, so that the results of leadership promotions can provide improvisation to organizations that are increasingly advancing towards future leadership targets. The proposed method for the evaluation and selection process uses the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and specifically Stepwise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (SWARA). Both of these methods utilize expert intervention in providing input in providing assessments of multi-criteria and alternatives. So that the priority of the criteria is carried out by an index process similar to that owned by the two methods, thus providing more optimal results for decision-making support. The assessment of the results requires seven criteria and twenty-four alternatives. The results obtained require two index processes for both criteria and alternatives. The first rank is determined by the weight of the calculation results of the seven criteria and alternative assessments from experts. The first rank of twenty-six employees was given to K20 with a weight of 0.932 and followed by K2 with a weight of 0.08. Thus, job promotion can be developed with a double index that can provide optimal results in supporting job promotion decision makin
