A COMPARISON OF THE NAIVE BAYES AND K-NN ALGORITHMS IN PREDICTING THE FRESHNESS OF MILKFISH AT FISH AUCTIONS
Full text linkThis research aims to compare the performance of two machine learning algorithms, Naive Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN), in predicting the freshness of milkfish (Chanos chanos) at fish auctions. Predicting fish freshness is an important aspect to ensure product quality and customer satisfaction. The Naive Bayes algorithm, which is based on Bayes' Theorem with the assumption of independence between features, as well as the K-NN algorithm, which uses an instance-based approach to classify data based on proximity to k nearest neighbors, were implemented and tested. Evaluation is carried out using accuracy and Kappa metrics. The results show that Naive Bayes achieved an accuracy of 73.44% with a Kappa value of 0.594, indicating good performance in predicting the freshness of milkfish. In contrast, K-NN shows an accuracy of 68.75% and a Kappa value of 0.461, which means its performance is lower compared to Naive Bayes. Further analysis revealed that Naive Bayes is more computationally efficient and faster at making predictions, making it better suited for real-time applications at fish auctions. However, Naive Bayes has limitations in assuming feature independence which may not always be true in real-world situations. On the other hand, K-NN although more flexible and capable of capturing complex patterns in data, tends to be slow and requires optimization of parameters such as k values to improve its performance. In conclusion, Naive Bayes is recommended for predicting the freshness of milkfish at fish auctions because of its higher accuracy and reliability. Further research is needed to optimize these two algorithms through parameter adjustments and the use of ensemble methods to improve overall prediction performance
Mapping and rebranding ornamental fish farming in Depok, West Java, contributions to the SDGs
No full textPurpose: This study aims to identify and prioritize effective rebranding strategies for the ornamental fish farming industry in Depok, West Java, using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to address challenges such as limited market access, environmental sustainability issues, and economic feasibility concerns while aligning with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Research Methodology: The research employs a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative research through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders and quantitative analysis using the AHP to systematically evaluate and prioritize rebranding strategies based on multiple criteria.
Results: The study identified market access as the most critical criterion, followed by environmental sustainability and economic feasibility, with digital marketing emerging as the most effective rebranding strategy, scoring 0.67, followed by sustainability certification (0.22) and community outreach programs (0.11).
Limitations: The research is limited by a small sample size, potentially affecting result generalizability. The AHP methodology introduces possible subjective biases through pairwise comparisons. The study's regional specificity may constrain broader applicability. Furthermore, the emphasis on rebranding strategies may not encompass all potential solutions to industry challenges.
Contribution: This research provides actionable insights for stakeholders in the ornamental fish farming industry to implement sustainable development strategies, aligning with SDGs 1, 8, and 14. It offers a systematic approach to decision-making through the application of AHP.
Novelty: This study innovatively applies the AHP to rebranding strategies in ornamental fish farming, uniquely integrating sustainable development principles with quantitative decision-making. This approach offers a new paradigm for strategic planning in aquaculture, contrasting with traditional qualitative methods in the field
Enhancing the Efficiency of Jakarta's Mass Rapid Transit System with XGBoost Algorithm for Passenger Prediction
Full text linkThis study is based on a machine learning algorithm known as XGBoost. We used the XGBoost algorithm to forecast the capacity of Jakarta's mass transit system. Using preprocessed raw data obtained from the Jakarta Open Data website for the period 2020-2021 as a training medium, we achieved a mean absolute percentage error of 69. However, after the model was fine-tuned, the MAPE was significantly reduced by 28.99% to 49.97. The XGBoost algorithm was found to be effective in detecting patterns and trends in the data, which can be used to improve routes and plan future studies by providing valuable insights. It is possible that additional data points, such as holidays and weather conditions, will further enhance the accuracy of the model in future research. As a result of implementing XGBoost, Jakarta's transportation system can optimize resource utilization and improve customer service in order to improve passenger satisfaction. Future studies may benefit from additional data points, such as holidays and weather conditions, in order to improve XGBoost's efficiency
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
