ANALYTIC NETWORK PROCESS IN DETERMINING RECIPIENTS OF EDUCATION GRANTS NORTH SUMATRA PROVINCE

Putri, Adelia Fariza, Fakhriza, M
Abstract: This study aims to apply the Analytic Network Process (ANP) method as a decision support tool in determining the eligibility of education grant recipients in North Sumatra Province. The background of this research arises&#8230; from the large number of grant applicants compared to the available budget, as well as the absence of clear and objective evaluation standards. The ANP method was chosen because it allows the interdependence between assessment criteria such as institutional feasibility, performance and achievement, social and educational impact, and accountability and transparency to be analyzed comprehensively. Data were obtained through interviews, documentation, and observation at the North Sumatra Provincial Education Office. The results of the ANP model show that the criterion with the highest weight is accountability and transparency (0.44), followed by social and educational impact (0.31). Among the three alternatives, community-based education foundations (A2) obtained the highest total weight (0.30), indicating that they are the most eligible recipients of education grants. The implementation of the ANP-based decision support system produces valid and consistent ranking results (CR < 0.1), enabling faster, fairer, and more transparent decision-making. Therefore, the ANP method contributes significantly to improving governance, objectivity, and accountability in the distribution of education grants in North Sumatra Province.

Abstract: Abstract: School building construction is an important part of educational facilities and infrastructure. Many elementary school buildings in Asahan Regency are damaged, unfit for use or lack facilities including classrooms&#8230; oms and other supporting infrastructure. The results of the selection that are not transparent in deciding the feasibility of rehabilitation and construction of elementary school buildings are often subjective and time-consuming. This causes decisions to be taken that cannot be made as quickly as possible and inequality, where schools that actually need rehabilitation more do not get priority for rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to implement data mining in the selection of school building construction projects with the K-Means clustering algorithm in clustering the feasibility of rehabilitation of elementary school building construction. The results of this study found 31 elementary schools that are eligible for school building construction rehabilitation and 4 are not eligible for school building construction rehabilitation.

REAL - TIME FACE DETECTION USING MATLAB HAAR CASCADE ALGORITHM

Jannah, Miftahul, Wanayumini, Wanayumini, Ardana, Abdul Aziz, Selase, Septinur, Nurliana, Nurliana
Abstract: Abstract: Face detection remains a challenging task in computer vision due to real-world factors such as uneven lighting, varying viewpoints, distance, and occlusion. This study aims to develop and evaluate a real-time facial&#8230; acial feature detection application (detecting face, eyes, nose, and mouth) using MATLAB and a webcam. Detection is performed using the Viola-Jones Cascade Classifier method through the vision.CascadeObjectDetector function. Key parameters that were adjusted include the MergeThreshold (ranging from 4 to 50 depending on the feature) and MinSize (based on estimated feature size within the frame). However, this study does not include tuning of other parameters such as FalseAlarmRate, which constitutes a limitation of the employed method. The adjustment of these parameters proved significant in improving detection accuracy and robustness under varying lighting conditions. Nevertheless, the system still encounters difficulties in detecting facial features in the presence of occlusion. This study also has the potential to serve as a foundation for further developments in face recognition, emotion detection, or biometric authentication.             Keywords: computer vision; haar cascade; MATLAB   Abstrak: Deteksi wajah merupakan tantangan dalam visi komputer karena dipengaruhi oleh kondisi nyata seperti pencahayaan tidak merata, sudut pandang, jarak, dan obstruksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan dan menguji aplikasi deteksi fitur wajah secara real-time (wajah, mata, hidung, dan mulut) menggunakan MATLAB dan kamera webcam. Deteksi dilakukan dengan metode Viola-Jones Cascade Classifier melalui fungsi vision.CascadeObjectDetector. Parameter penting yang disesuaikan adalah MergeThreshold (antara 4 hingga 50 tergantung fitur), MinSize (mengikuti estimasi ukuran fitur dalam frame). Namun, penelitian ini tidak mencakup penyesuaian parameter lain seperti FalseAlarmRate, yang menjadi salah satu keterbatasan metode yang digunakan. Penyesuaian parameter ini terbukti signifikan dalam meningkatkan akurasi deteksi dan ketahanan terhadap variasi kondisi pencahayaan. Namun, sistem masih mengalami kesulitan mendeteksi fitur wajah jika terjadi obstruksi. Penelitian ini juga berpotensi menjadi dasar untuk pengembangan lebih lanjut dalam face recognition, emotion detection, atau biometric authentication.   Kata kunci: visi computer; haar cascade; MATLAB  

THE USE OF IOT IN WATER UTILIZATION STRATEGIES FOR SMART IRRIGATION SYSTEMS BASED ON MACHINE LEARNING

Junaidi, Junaidi
Abstract: Abstract: Water irrigation is a crucial aspect of agriculture that often becomes the primary concern for farmers, especially because suboptimal management can lead to decreased crop yields and reduced income. So far, farmers&#8230; mers have been practicing irrigation manually, where plants are watered twice a day, in the morning and evening, based on weather conditions without considering soil temperature or moisture levels. Based on the observations conducted, it was found that excessive water application increases water accumulation, resulting in nutrient loss from the soil and even root diseases. The objective of this study is to develop a system utilizing an ESP32 microcontroller and sensors to detect soil moisture, with a machine learning-based K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) model, enabling farmers to remotely monitor and control their crops using an Android device. The testing results showed that with input data of 32°C temperature, 40% soil moisture, and 60% air humidity, the system produced a nearest distance of 0.000 and 0.541 from the closest k-nearest neighbors, with a status label of "needs water." As a result, the relay activates the water pump to irrigate the field. Meanwhile, for data with a nearest distance of 0.897, the system identified the status as "does not need water," indicating that the soil remains wet or moist. This study is expected to help reduce farmers' workloads by optimizing water usage according to plant needs and improving crop quality and yield.         Keywords: k-nearest neighbor (KNN); mikrokontroller ESP32; machine learning; water irrigation   Abstrak: Irigasi air merupakan aspek penting dalam pertanian yang menjadi perhatian utama petani, terutama karena pengelolaan yang kurang optimal berdampak pada penurunan hasil panen dan pendapatan. Selama ini, praktik irigasi oleh petani dilakukan secara manual, di mana penyiraman tanaman dilakukan dua kali sehari pada pagi dan sore berdasarkan kondisi cuaca tanpa memperhatikan suhu atau kelembaban tanah. Berdasarkan hasil observasi yang dilakukan, ditemukan masalah yaitu pemberian air secara berlebih menyebabkan akumulasi air meningkat mengakibatkan kehilangan nutrisi tanah dan bahkan penyakit akar. Tujuan penelitian ini menciptakan sistem yang dirancang menggunakan mikrokontroler ESP32 dan sensor untuk mendeteksi kelembaban tanah, dengan model K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) berbasis machine learning sehingga memudahkan petani untuk mengontrol tanaman mereka dari jarak jauh menggunakan android. Hasil pengujian yang dilakukan dengan data inputan berupa suhu 32°C, kelembaban tanah 40% dan kelembaban udara 60%, sistem menghasilkan jarak terdekat sebesar 0.000 dan 0.541 dari k-nearest terdekat dengan label status "butuh air". Maka relay akan mengaktifkan pompa air untuk mengairi lahan. Kemudian, pada data dengan jarak terdekat 0.897, sistem mengidentifikasi status "tidak butuh air", menunjukkan bahwa kondisi tanah masih basah atau lembab. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat membantu meringankan beban kerja petani mengoptimalkan penggunaan air sesuai dengan kebutuhan tanaman dan meningkatkan kualitas hasil panen.
