Credit card fraud is a critical issue in digital financial transactions. This study aims to develop and evaluate fraud detection models using Logistic Regression and Gradient Boosting on an imbalanced dataset, where fraudulent transactions constitute only a small portion of the data. To address this imbalance, the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) was applied during preprocessing. Logistic Regression, used as a baseline model, achieved 95% accuracy, 78.6% precision, 55.9% recall, and a 65.3% F1-score. After applying class weighting and SMOTE, recall improved to 88.7%, but precision dropped to 52%, indicating that the model became overly sensitive and prone to false positives. Gradient Boosting initially produced better results, with 98% accuracy, 95.5% precision, 84.3% recall, and an 89.5% F1-score. After hyperparameter tuning and resampling, its performance improved further to 96.7% precision, 86.1% recall, and a 91.1% F1-score. These results indicate that Gradient Boosting is more effective in handling imbalanced data and offers greater reliability in detecting fraudulent transactions. The findings support the growing evidence in favor of ensemble learning techniques in fraud detection applications. This research contributes practical insights into improving the accuracy and security of machine learning-based fraud detection systems in financial services.

Background: The increasing complexity of industrial production systems requires machine condition monitoring solutions that are capable of operating in real time with high accuracy and responsiveness to support predictive maintenance strategies. Conventional cloud based monitoring systems often experience limitations such as high latency and dependence on stable network connectivity, which can delay decision making processes in critical industrial operations. Objective: This study aims to design and evaluate an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) architecture based on edge computing to improve the efficiency of industrial sensor data processing and accelerate anomaly detection in industrial machines. Method: The research adopts an experimental approach by designing a system architecture consisting of a sensor layer, edge computing layer, and cloud layer. Industrial sensors, including vibration, temperature, and current sensors, continuously collect machine operational data, which are then processed locally at the edge node using a machine learning based anomaly detection algorithm. System testing is conducted in a simulated manufacturing environment to evaluate performance based on latency, reliability, and detection accuracy. Results: The results indicate that edge based data processing significantly reduces latency compared with cloud-based processing and enables faster responses to machine condition changes. Additionally, the implemented anomaly detection algorithm achieves high accuracy in identifying abnormal sensor data patterns.

Background: The development of industrial technology in the Industry 4.0 era has encouraged the implementation of intelligent monitoring systems to improve machine reliability and operational efficiency. However, machine fault diagnosis systems based on artificial intelligence often face limitations in terms of interpretability because the models used are complex and difficult to explain. Objective: This study aims to develop a deep learning-based industrial machine fault diagnosis system integrated with an Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) approach to improve diagnostic accuracy while providing interpretable insights for users. Method: The research method involves collecting data from industrial machine sensors consisting of vibration signals, temperature measurements, and acoustic signals, followed by data preprocessing and feature extraction processes. The processed data are then used to train a deep learning-based diagnostic model, after which explainability methods such as SHAP or LIME are applied to analyze the contribution of each feature to the model’s prediction results. Model performance is evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. Results: The results indicate that the proposed deep learning model achieves better performance compared to conventional machine learning methods such as Support Vector Machine and Random Forest. Furthermore, the explainability analysis reveals that vibration amplitude, increases in machine component temperature, and anomalies in acoustic signals are the main factors influencing machine fault detection. Therefore, the proposed system not only improves the accuracy of machine fault diagnosis but also provides transparency in the decision-making process, thereby supporting the implementation of predictive maintenance in smart manufacturing environments.

This study aims to explore public perceptions of urban spatial planning policies in addressing the impacts of urbanization in Medan. Data were collected using a 15-item Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed descriptively, using proxy factor analysis (PCA), and using cross-demographic difference tests.

Adolescent girls often complain of dysmenorrhea, or discomfort during menstruation, which can range from mild to severe and interfere with daily activities, especially learning. To prevent this disease from lowering the quality of life of adolescents, it must be treated. Education about dysmenorrhea and its treatment is one of the actions that can be taken. The study used a pre-experimental design approach, a quantitative research design, and a single-group pre-test-post-test research plan without a control group design. Using a proportional stratified random sampling approach, 57 female students of class X formed a research sample. The use of films on dysmenorrhea for health education serves as an independent variable of the study. Adolescent girls' knowledge and attitudes about dysmenorrhea function as a study-dependent variable. The validity and reliability of these instruments are checked. Univariate and bivariate analysis were used as data analysis methods in this study. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test is used for hypothesis testing. It was determined that health education using dysmenorrhea film had an impact on the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls about the treatment of dysmenorrhea based on the findings of the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test (Asymp.) with a value of 2-tailed 0.000 (p<0.05). The findings of the study showed that among grade 10 students at SMA Negeri 13 Selatan Halamahera, health education through dysmenorrhea films had an impact on the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls about the treatment of dysmenorrhea.

The growing demand for transparency, accountability, and measurable performance has transformed higher education institutions into complex public organizations required to deliver reliable and stakeholder-oriented services. Within this governance-driven environment, institutional governance plays a fundamental role in shaping service excellence and institutional legitimacy. Drawing on a public administration perspective, this study examines how governance dimensions influence academic service performance in higher education. This research employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, document analysis, and institutional observations involving university leaders, academic administrators, faculty members, and students. The analysis focuses on governance dimensions—transparency, accountability, participation, effectiveness, and responsibility—and their integration into institutional systems such as performance management, quality assurance, and digital infrastructure. The findings reveal that governance frameworks are formally established through regulations and digital systems; however, their operational integration remains uneven. Transparency improves service reliability when supported by consistent information management, while accountability mechanisms tend to emphasize procedural compliance rather than performance-based evaluation. Stakeholder participation is institutionalized but largely consultative. The study concludes that service excellence in higher education is a governance-driven outcome that requires systemic alignment between governance principles, institutional capacity, and performance management processes. Strengthened governance integration enhances service reliability and institutional legitimacy.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the implementation of the Intelligent Tutoring Sistem (ITS) based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) on improving the understanding of mathematical concepts, especially in fractional and basic geometry materials, in Class V students of SD Negeri 2 Badran, Temanggung Regency. The research method used was a quasiexperimental experiment with a Non-equivalent Control Group Design. The research sample consisted of 48 students who were divided into two groups, namely the experimental group (n=24) who received learning with the help of AI-based ITS, and the control group (n=24) who received conventional learning with lecture methods and practice questions. The research instrument is in the form of a test of understanding of mathematical concepts that has been validated by experts and tested for reliability. Data were analyzed using parametric statistical tests of the Independent Sample t-test and N-Gain Score to measure the improvement. The results showed that there was a significant difference in understanding of mathematical concepts between the experimental group and the control group. The average post-test score of the experimental group (82.45) was significantly higher than that of the control group (70.12) with a p< value of 0.05. N-Gain analysis showed that the improvement in conceptual understanding in the experimental group was in the "moderate" category (g=0.56), while the control group was in the "low" category (g=0.32). These findings indicate that AI-based ITS is effective in improving students' understanding of mathematical concepts. The advantages of the system lie in its ability to provide instant feedback, personalize materials according to learning pace, and present interactive materials, thus helping to better construct students' conceptual understanding. It is recommended that schools consider the integration of ITS technology as a supplementary tool in mathematics learning at the elementary level.

This study examines the application of double integrals in calculating the volume of cylindrical concrete piles as a basis for estimating material requirements in building foundation structures. The volume calculation was carried out using a double-integral approach in polar coordinates for three pile segments with lengths of 4 m, 3.9 m, and 4 m, each having a diameter of 60 cm. The results were then validated using the standard geometric formula to ensure consistency and mathematical reliability. The obtained concrete volume was subsequently used to estimate material needs based on a 1:1.5:3 mix proportion consisting of cement, sand, and gravel. The findings indicate that double integrals can be effectively applied to generate accurate estimations of both volume and material requirements, supporting logistical planning in construction. This approach also highlights the strong connection between mathematical concepts—particularly multivariable calculus—and practical applications in civil engineering. Furthermore, the study emphasizes that double integrals may serve as a relevant alternative when structural modeling requires deeper analytical exploration or validation beyond conventional geometry. Therefore, the implementation of double integrals not only reinforces theoretical understanding but also enhances precision in evaluating structural components within building foundation planning.
