Comparison of algorithm Support Vector Machine and C4.5 for identification of pests and diseases in chili plants
Get PDFData from the Central Bureau of Statistics of the population working in the agricultural sector continued to decline from 39.22 million in 2013 to 38.97 million in 2014, the number dropped back to 37.75 million in 2015. According to the MIT G-Lab Team (global entrepreneurship program) concludes five factors that make it difficult to raise agricultural productivity to compete in the domestic market, namely the low education of farmers in dealing with pests, the difficulty of access to finance for rural areas, lack of skills, lack of access to information and lack of application of agricultural technology. Chili plants are plants that are very susceptible to pests so BPS noted a decrease in chili production reaching 25%. Information about chili pests is collected so that it becomes a database that can be used to identify disease pests using the data mining method. The use of data mining algorithms is expected to help in the identification of pests and diseases in chili plants. In this study comparing the performance classification techniques of Support Vector Machine (SVM) and C4.5 algorithms. The attributes used consist of Leaves, Stems, and Fruits. By using each training data and testing data as many as 30 data. The results of the study were conducted, based on the accuracy of SVM, which was 82.33% and C4.5 89.29 %%. The final result of this study was that the accuracy of the C4.5 method was better
Industry 4.0 Competence Model for Malaysia Industry4WRD
Get PDFThe Fourth Industrial Revolution, one of the most debated and researched topic, with countries and businesses directing their focus and effort towards understanding, cultivating, manipulating, and implementing the new approach.

An analysis of taxpayer compliance using a cost-benefit approach.
Get PDFThis study seeks to analyze and enhance understanding of taxpayer
compliance with tax obligations in a systematic way by using the cost benefit approach. Data from a sample of 250 audited service tax payers
are used to examine the compliance factors. The hypotheses are tested using Spearman’s rho for ordinal variables and biserial correlation for dichotomous data. A decision matrix is used to make a logical
conclusion on the business firm reporting behavior based on the
derived expected utility value and compliance level. The results show a
positive significant correlation between taxable sales, return submission and taxpayer compliance, but taxpayer compliance has a negative relationship with deficiency amount, penalty, and three other variables. The study suggests that minor penalties are unlikely to deter
non-compliant behavior and economic factors seem to exert more influence on compliance. The methodology and matrix diagram can be customized to the requirements of tax audit management for assisting in audit case selection and strategy program to detect underdeclaration
and minimize shortfall in tax revenue. The taxpayer
compliance-Correlation-Expected utility matrix analyzes the taxpayer’s expected utility function and compliance behavior, and provides an insight to what the most likely decision of a taxpayer is under certain assumptions
