Being blessed with fertile land and suitable for planting various crops is a gift from the creator. Indonesia is often dubbed as the world's granary because it is one of the largest rice-producing countries in the world. Indonesia is an agricultural country based on the statement of the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) which states that the number of Indonesian farmers reached 31.70 in 2013. The agricultural sector is one of the country's foreign exchange that helps the economy. Farming activities are one of the livelihoods of most Indonesian people. The productivity of Indonesian farmers who are still productive ranges from more than 40-54 years old with traditional methods. Meanwhile, the younger generation who are more aware of technology are now reluctant to become farmers simply because of the prestige factor that exists in each individual, the fear before trying and underestimating the farming profession. Not being able to utilize technology wisely is a negative impact of technological advances that cause users to become lazy, but there is a positive impact behind it, one of which is spreading agricultural information throughout the earth quickly.

Transfer Learning VGG16 For Image Classification of Tomato Leaf Disease

2023-11-16T13:59:25+07:00

Tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum) are one of Indonesia's mainstay horticultural commodities that are exported throughout Southeast Asia. However, the export value of tomatoes in 2021 recorded a decrease of 34.07% from 2020. The decline in the quality and quantity of tomatoes is generally caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, and mite outbreaks that mostly attack the leaves such as late blight and two-spotted spider mite. This research utilizes one of the image processing methods to classify tomato leaf diseases in 3 labels, namely tomato healthy, tomato late blight, and tomato two-spotted spider mite. The image processing algorithm used in this research is Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) which can extract leaf image features in depth through its layer architecture. The VGG16 transfer learning architecture is used in this study because of its simple structure and can be modified by adding a fully connected layer, namely dropout with a value of 0.5 to adjust the model and improve its performance. Green Channel + CLAHE is also applied at the preprocessing stage with an epoch parameter of 30. The dataset used consists of 1,591 images of healthy tomato leaves, 1,909 images of late blight tomato leaves, and 1,676 images of two-spotted spider mite leaves. Two scenarios were conducted on the model, namely the model with callback function and the model without callback function. Based on the training and evaluation of the model that has been carried out, the model with the callback function is able to produce an accuracy value of 99.03% with precision for the labels tomato healthy 0.99, tomato late blight 1.00, and tomato two-spotted spider mite 0.98, and the number of incorrectly predicted images is only 15. This shows a higher value than the model without the callback function. Against 21 test images from other datasets, the model with callback function was able to produce accurate classification with high prediction values.

2023-11-23T14:14:00+07:00

Introduction - Colorectal cancer is one of the third ranked cancers in Indonesia and has a high level of malignancy. The bioactive compound Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) is known to have antioxidant and cytotoxic activity, so it has the potential to be developed as an anticancer agent. Purpose - This study aims to determine the potential of EGCG compounds as anticancer in silico. Methodology/Approach - The in-silico tests used are molecular docking and ADMET/Pharmacokinetic profiles using biosig pkcsm.Finding - The results of the respective binding affinities formed from EGCG compounds with the target protein affinities of COX-2 and Caspace-3 are -9.2 and -5.4 which are better links between EGCG and Caspace. The Lipinski rule show that the epigallocatecin compound has strength to absorb is 47%. This indicates that EGCG has the potential as a candidate for colorectal anticancer drugs with poor absorption. Originality/Value/Implications – In Silico, many studies have been carried out, but it is still rare to combine molecular docking methods with pKCSM to determine the solubility properties of compounds. The prospect of this research can become a basic or key for developing ECGC compounds into preparations because they have low bioavailability and can be continued in in vitro and in vivo research.
