Abstract: Abstract: The increasing use of the Maxim ride-hailing application in Manokwari highlights the need to understand the factors influencing user acceptance and satisfaction. However, the growing number of users does not necessarily&#8230; cessarily reflect a high level of technology acceptance and user satisfaction. This study aims to examine the effects of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, facilitating conditions, and habit on behavioral intention, as well as the effect of behavioral intention on user satisfaction among Maxim users in Manokwari. A quantitative approach based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2) was employed. Data were collected through questionnaires using a purposive sampling technique from 156 valid respondents and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4.0. The results show that performance expectancy (β = 0.343, p < 0.001), effort expectancy (β = 0.191, p = 0.002), facilitating conditions (β = 0.142, p = 0.029), and habit (β = 0.359, p < 0.001) positively and significantly influence behavioral intention. Furthermore, behavioral intention positively and significantly affects user satisfaction (β = 0.771, p < 0.001). These findings confirm the applicability of the UTAUT2 model and provide practical insights for Maxim management and application developers to improve service quality and user satisfaction.   Keywords: behavioral intention; effort expectancy; facilitating conditions; habit; performance expectancy; user satisfaction.     Abstrak: Meningkatnya penggunaan aplikasi transportasi daring Maxim di Manokwari mendorong perlunya memahami faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi penerimaan teknologi dan kepuasan pengguna.

Balqis, Rugaiyah, Jahda Rusti Putri, Mira Afrina, Ibrahim, Ali, Fathoni, Fathoni
Abstract: Abstract: The rapid growth of e-commerce mobile applications has generated large volumes of user reviews, making manual sentiment analysis increasingly impractical. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of three machine&#8230; achine learning algorithms Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest, and Naive Bayes for automated sentiment classification of Indonesian-language mobile application reviews. A dataset of 3,000 user reviews from the RupaRupa application on the Google Play Store was collected and preprocessed through normalization, tokenization, stopword removal, and stemming. TF-IDF vectorization was applied for feature extraction, while the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) was used to address class imbalance across three sentiment categories: positive, negative, and neutral. The results show that SVM achieved the highest accuracy of 90.02%, while Random Forest obtained the best F1-score of 88.08% when sufficient training data were available. Naive Bayes demonstrated relatively stable performance across varying training data sizes. Furthermore, TF-IDF keyword analysis revealed that negative reviews were primarily associated with delivery issues, technical problems, and pricing concerns. These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of machine learning approaches for sentiment classification and provide practical insights for improving mobile application services.   Keywords: sentiment analysis; machine learning; SMOTE; TF-IDF; text classification   Abstrak: Pertumbuhan pesat aplikasi mobile e-commerce telah menghasilkan volume ulasan pengguna yang sangat besar, sehingga analisis sentimen secara manual menjadi semakin tidak praktis.

Al Mas Ud, Khalid, Fathoni, Fathoni, Muhammad Kurniawan, Hafiz
Abstract: Abstract: Obesity is an escalating global health concern, with unhealthy lifestyle patterns contributing significantly to its development. This study aims to evaluate and compare three clustering techniques for categorizing&#8230; ing lifestyle patterns and obesity-related factors: K-Means, Agglomerative Clustering, and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). The data used in this study is sourced from the Food Nutrition dataset, which includes variables such as dietary habits, physical activity, and socio-economic status. The three clustering methods were assessed using evaluation metrics such as Silhouette Score, Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI), and Calinski-Harabasz Index (CHI). The findings revealed that K-Means exhibited the best performance in terms of cluster separation with a Silhouette Score of 0.5559, while GMM showed better flexibility in handling more complex data. Although Agglomerative Clustering produced acceptable results, it had a higher overlap between clusters compared to the other methods. This study offers valuable insights into selecting the most appropriate clustering technique based on the data characteristics.             Keywords: agglomerative; clustering; GMM; k-means; lifestyle patterns; obesity   Abstrak: Obesitas menjadi masalah kesehatan yang semakin meningkat di seluruh dunia, dengan pola hidup yang tidak sehat berperan besar dalam perkembangannya.

ANALYSIS OF THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE SINAGA ATTENDANCE APPLICATION AT SMA NEGERI 1 JATILAWANG USING THE TECHNOLOGY ACCEPTANCE MODEL (TAM)

Sabaniyah, Arbangi Puput, Yunita, Ika Romadhoni, Subarkah, Pungkas
Abstract: This study analyzes the acceptance of teachers and ASN employees of the SINAGA (Sistem Informasi Layanan Kepegawaian) attendance application at SMA Negeri 1 Jatilawang using a modified Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).&#8230; The model was extended by incorporating two external variables: Information Quality and Complexity. This explanatory quantitative research employed the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method involving 60 respondents who are civil servants, consisting of teachers and administrative staff. The results reveal that Information Quality has a positive and significant influence on both Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), while Complexity does not show a significant effect on either variable. Furthermore, PEOU and PU have a positive impact on Attitude Toward Use (ATU), which subsequently affects Behavioral Intention to Use (BIU). Behavioral intention, in turn, strongly influences Actual Use (AU). These findings indicate that teachers’ acceptance of the SINAGA digital attendance system in educational settings is primarily driven by information quality and users’ positive attitudes rather than by system complexity. Theoretically, this study contributes to the expansion of TAM application in the educational context. Practically, it provides valuable insights for improving the effectiveness of SINAGA implementation through better information quality and enhanced user experience.
