Community welfare is a primary objective of national development, encompassing various aspects such as health, education, and decent employment, all of which play crucial roles in achieving national stability and progress. However, welfare is not solely dependent on economic factors but also on the overall quality of life. Unfortunately, disparities in welfare persist across different regions, influenced by local environmental factors, including access to education, which in turn affects job opportunities and income levels. Inequalities in employment opportunities can potentially slow down national development by reducing the number of individuals capable of contributing productively to key economic sectors. To enhance national development, further analysis of welfare indicators such as the open unemployment rate, human development index, labor force participation rate, and poverty levels is essential. Therefore, this study conducts cluster analysis on welfare indicators across districts/cities in Central Java for the year 2023. Both hierarchical and non-hierarchical (K-Means) clustering methods are employed to identify patterns of inequality by partitioning data into groups based on specific similarities. This approach facilitates a more effective review of policies to address welfare disparities across various regions. The findings indicate that the welfare indicators in Central Java are in a relatively poor condition, with low labor force participation rates, low human development indices, and high poverty rates. The hierarchical and non-hierarchical cluster analysis identified 5 optimal clusters, with all welfare variables having significant influence, requiring four iterations to reach the final centroids.

This study explores the integration of hybrid AI control models, combining reinforcement learning (RL) and robust adaptive control, to improve the adaptability, performance, and stability of autonomous manufacturing systems. Traditional control systems, while effective under stable conditions, often struggle to cope with disturbances and varying production demands. Hybrid AI models, which integrate classical control methods such as Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) with machine learning techniques like RL, deep Q-networks (DQN), and deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG), enhance decision-making capabilities in dynamic production environments. The study develops a hybrid RL robust control framework and tests it in both simulation and real-world scenarios. Performance metrics, including production efficiency, system stability, and adaptability, are assessed under various disturbance conditions, such as machine failures and fluctuating demands. The hybrid model significantly outperforms traditional PID control in terms of efficiency and stability, demonstrating faster convergence and better adaptability in dynamic environments. Statistical analysis confirms the superiority of the hybrid system over standalone RL models and traditional PID control. This model’s scalability and adaptability make it a promising solution for Industry 4.0 applications, addressing key challenges in real-world manufacturing systems by ensuring computational efficiency and the ability to manage large-scale data. The findings contribute to the development of more robust and efficient control strategies for autonomous manufacturing systems in uncertain environments.
