Indramayu mango is a seasonal fruit that is highly favored due to its delicious taste and high nutritional content. However, high mango production is often not supported by adequate post-harvest facilities, particularly in terms of fruit ripeness classification. Currently, mango ripeness classification is still performed manually, which tends to be subjective and inconsistent. To address this issue, this study proposes a ripeness detection system for Indramayu mangoes by integrating the TGS2602 gas sensor and the YOLOv11 algorithm based on image processing. The TGS2602 sensor is used to detect ethylene gas emitted by ripe mangoes, while YOLOv11 is employed for visual image analysis of the fruit. This study aims to evaluate the system’s performance in classifying ripe and unripe mangoes, as well as analyze the integration between the gas sensor and the object detection model. The test results show that the TGS2602 sensor can detect increased ethylene gas concentration in ripe mangoes, while YOLOv11 demonstrates high accuracy in detecting mangoes based on visual images, with precision and recall close to 1.0. The system was also tested under various lighting conditions, including dark environments, and still performed well, although with a slight decrease in accuracy under low-light conditions.

This study addresses the problem of how the implementation of HOTS-based Android gamification influences the higher-order thinking skills of students with ADHD, a group that often faces challenges in traditional learning environments. A quantitative experimental research design was applied, involving 26 students with ADHD from four special needs schools (SLBs) in West Kalimantan. The intervention included HOTS-oriented Android gamified learning, and students' performance was measured using pre-tests and post-tests based on HOTS-level questions. The average pre-test score was 23.72, while the post-test score increased to 53.21. A paired sample t-test showed a significant improvement (t = 8.688 > t_table = 1.708, at a 5% significance level). However, only 57.69% of students met the minimum mastery criteria (KKM = 67), indicating that 15 out of 26 students achieved the expected learning standard. The implementation of HOTS-based Android gamification significantly improved the higher-order thinking skills of students with ADHD. Nonetheless, the overall results, based on average scores and classical completeness, indicate that many students still did not reach the expected level of mastery. Further enhancements in instructional design may be necessary to optimize outcomes for this group of learners.

This study presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of four traditional machine learning algorithms Decision Tree, Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Support Vector Machine for Android malware detection using the preprocessed TUANDROMD dataset comprising 4,465 instances and 241 features representing both static and dynamic application characteristics. Motivated by the limitations of conventional signature-based and hybrid detection methods, especially in managing imbalanced datasets and detecting emerging malware variants, the study employed SMOTE to ensure balanced training data and fair model evaluation. The dataset was divided into 80% training and 20% testing subsets, and models were assessed using key performance metrics including accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and ROC AUC. The findings revealed that the proposed Random Forest model outperformed the other classifiers, achieving an accuracy of 0.993, precision of 0.992, recall of 1.000, F1-score of 0.996, and a near-perfect ROC AUC of 0.9998 surpassing state-of-the-art approaches. These results affirm the superior predictive capability, consistency, and robustness of the Random Forest algorithm in Android malware detection. The study concludes that base models, when integrated with class-balancing techniques, provide reliable and efficient malware detection across imbalanced datasets. For future research, the study recommends exploring advanced hybrid or ensemble frameworks that integrate Random Forest with deep learning architectures or other meta-heuristic optimization techniques to further enhance detection accuracy, adaptability, and resilience against rapidly evolving Android malware threats.
