Cyst and tumor in oral cavity are seriously noticed by health experts along with increasing death cases of oral cancer in developing country. Early detection of cyst and tumor using dental panoramic image is needed since its initial growth does not cause any complaints. Image processing is done by mean for distinguishing the classification of cyst and tumor. The results in previous studies about classification of cyst and tumor were done by using a mathematical computation approach namely supports vector machine method that have still not satisfied and have not been validated. Therefore, in this study we propose a method, i.e., nonparametric regression model based on local polynomial estimator that can be improve the classification accuracy of cyst and tumor on human dental panoramic image. By using the proposed method, we get the classification accuracy of cyst and tumor, i.e., 90.91% which is greater than those by using the support vector machine method, i.e., 76.67%. Also, in validation process we obtain that the nonparametric regression model approach gives a significant Press's Q statistical testing value. So, we conclude that the nonparametric regression model approach improves the classification accuracy and gives better outcome to classify cyst and tumor using dental panoramic image than the support vector machine method.
Accuracy is very important in time series forecasting where the model obtained depends on historical, linear, or nonlinear data patterns. This study aims to forecast short term electricity load in East Java, Indonesia, whereas electricity load is one of major and vital need in our daily life. The linear approach is carried out using the ARIMA method, while the nonlinear approach used in this study consist of the SVR and LSSVR models. The parameter selection greatly affects the results of accuracy, so an optimization method is needed. The usual grid search optimization method does not guarantee an optimum solution and more importantly, it is not efficient in some practical applications. Therefore metaheuristic optimization methods are needed, including GA and PSO which can find the entire possible space for the search for solutions. PSO is easier to apply but is prone to have premature convergence due to trapped in the minimum locale. To overcome this, modified PSO is developed to seek the optimal position according to the specified criteria. The result of this research is that the accuracy of the nonlinear approach is much better than the linear approach. The addition of an optimization method to the SVR provides a significant change in accuracy compared to LSSVR. Meanwhile, MPSO is the best optimization method because it produces a lowest RMSE value.
