The main challenges in multi-label emotion classification on social media include extreme label imbalance, distribution shift between training and application data, and weak lexical signals for specific emotions. This study aims to build a reliable emotion modeling framework for long-tail social media corpora while demonstrating generalizable post-training calibration practices. The novelty lies in the integration of four components: (1) per-label posterior calibration using Platt scaling, (2) precision-targeted per-label thresholding frozen from the development set, (3) score-quantile–based rate targeting to align predicted prevalence with domain-based rates, and (4) context-limited lexicon-aware boosting with a final clamp. The proposed pipeline is lightweight and model-agnostic. This research adopts a quantitative experimental approach by varying post-training calibration components to measure their impact on classification performance. An IndoBERTweet model is trained using BCEWithLogitsLoss on manually annotated data, then calibrated and evaluated on development and test sets. The results demonstrate balanced micro- and macro-level performance, improved detection of minority labels, and emotion mapping over 3,500 tweets with prevalence distributions consistent with Plutchik’s theory of emotions.</em></p> Rizki Yustisia Sari Sabar Sabar Joni Joni Gelard Unthirta Pratama Ronal Ronal Fadli Hastito Copyright (c) 2026 Rizki Yustisia Sari, Sabar Sabar, Joni Joni, Gelard Unthirta Pratama, Ronal Ronal, Fadli Hastito https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-01-23 2026-01-23 18 1 1 19 10.5614/joki.2028.18.1.1 Design and Development of a Water Level Monitoring System on a Water Level Simulator https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/joki/article/view/26040 <p><em>Water level monitoring is generally still done manually.

Traditional visual manual inspection often results in inconsistency, subjectivity, and reduced production throughput. This research implements the Roboflow Detection Transformer (RF-DETR), an end-to-end transformer-based object detection architecture, to identify subtle and complex coffee bean defects. The study uses image processing and machine learning with a labeled dataset of 2,010 coffee bean images classified into five defect categories: brown, black, unripe, broken black, and partially black. The data are split into 75% training, 17% validation, and 8% testing. Performance evaluation shows RF-DETR detects and classifies all defect types effectively, achieving a mean Average Precision (mAP) of 97,6%, with 95,7% precision, 91,0% recall, and an F1 score of 93,29%. These results indicate that RF-DETR balances accurate spatial localization with reliable class prediction, minimizes false positives, and maintains strong detection sensitivity. Therefore, RF-DETR provides a solid technological basis for high-precision, real-time automated coffee bean sorting in industrial settings. For deployment, it can be integrated with production cameras and conveyor sorting actuators to deliver fast, consistent decisions. Future work may optimize augmentation, lighting calibration, and edge computing deployment to improve robustness across varied production lines in practice.</em></p> Sabar Sabar Nazuwatussya’diyah Nazuwatussya’diyah Kisna Pertiwi Muhamad Fathurahman Copyright (c) 2026 Sabar Sabar, Nazuwatussya’diyah Nazuwatussya’diyah, Kisna Pertiwi, Muhamad Fathurahman https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-01-23 2026-01-23 18 1 29 38 10.5614/joki.2026.18.1.3 Model Reference Adaptive Control for pH Neutralization in Batik Wastewater Treatment https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/joki/article/view/26372 <p class="abstractJOKI">The batik industry generates wastewater with elevated pH levels due to sodium hydroxide usage in dyeing processes, frequently exceeding the regulatory standard of pH 6–9. Traditional dilution methods prove economically inefficient, necessitating more adaptive control strategies. This research designs and simulates a nonlinear adaptive control system based on Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) for pH neutralization using acetic acid. The Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) mathematical model was developed from mass balance, acid-base equilibrium, and electroneutrality principles, then simulated using Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) functions in MATLAB. MRAC performance was compared with conventional PI controller across various initial wastewater pH conditions. Simulation results demonstrate that MRAC achieves faster convergence, reaching pH 7 in 2488.68 seconds from initial pH 9, compared to PI controller (3080.96 seconds) or uncontrolled system (10225 seconds). With settling time of 2377 seconds versus 2566.4 seconds for PI, MRAC reduces neutralizer consumption by 0.61% (9.5380 L versus 9.5969 L) while maintaining safety criteria above the lower pH bound of 6.80. Lyapunov stability analysis confirms the asymptotic stability of the adaptive controller. This study demonstrates that MRAC offers superior performance for batik wastewater pH control while reducing dependency on uneconomical dilution methods.</p> Nazuwatussya'diyah Nazuwatussya'diyah Estiyanti Ekawati Justin Pradipta Copyright (c) 2026 Nazuwatussya'diyah Nazuwatussya'diyah, Estiyanti Ekawati, Justin Pradipta https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-02-06 2026-02-06 18 1 39 57 10.5614/joki.2026.18.1.4 Design of an Electrochemical-Based Biosensor Strip for Blood Sugar and Uric Acid Testing https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/joki/article/view/26605 <p><em>Rapid and accurate monitoring of glucose and uric acid levels is essential for the early detection of metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus and hyperuricemia. This study aims to develop an electrochemical biosensor strip based on a conductive carbon electrode for the detection of glucose and uric acid using glucose oxidase and uricase enzymes. The strip was designed with a three-electrode configuration on an acrylic substrate, which was selected due to its lower resistance and superior coating stability compared to PVC. The signal detection system employed a transimpedance amplifier circuit using the LM358, integrated with an Arduino Uno. Measurements were performed using artificial blood samples with various glucose concentrations (0–200 mg/dL) and uric acid concentrations (0–12 mg/dL). Calibration results demonstrated a linear relationship between analyte concentration and the output current, with R² values approaching 1. After correction, the glucose strip exhibited 92–100% accuracy and 92–97% precision, while the uric acid strip achieved 76–99% accuracy and 96–97% precision. These findings indicate that the developed biosensor strip provides consistent and reasonably accurate measurements, demonstrating its potential as an economical and portable point-of-care device for monitoring glucose and uric acid.</em></p> Retno Maharsi Vista Sari Afifah Zikra Maizi Ading Atma Gamilang Doni Bowo Nugroho Amrina Mustaqim Copyright (c) 2026 Retno Maharsi, Vista Sari Afifah, Zikra Maizi, Ading Atma Gamilang, Doni Bowo Nugroho, Amrina Mustaqim https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-02-13 2026-02-13 18 1 58 69 10.5614/joki.2026.18.1.5 Development of a Twin-Motor Aeropendulum with Fuzzy Logic Controller Based on MATLAB-Simulink and Arduino https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/joki/article/view/26977 <p><em>This paper presents the design and development of a twin-motor aeropendulum (half-quadcopter) system as a control systems learning platform using a fuzzy logic controller (FLC). The system is implemented using a real plant in the form of a half-quadcopter, an IMU MPU6050 sensor combined with a complementary filter for angle estimation, and an integration of Arduino and Matlab-Simulink for controller design and response visualization. Compared to conventional PID controllers, the FLC is selected due to its ability to handle system nonlinearities without requiring an accurate mathematical model. The main contribution of this work lies in the development of a low-cost educational platform that integrates a real plant, a non-contact sensor with improved durability, and real-time system response visualization. Experimental results at a 30° setpoint show a rise time of 0.5 s, a settling time of 5.8 s, a maximum overshoot of 21.3%, and a steady-state error of 0.2%, along with good disturbance rejection capability. These results demonstrate that the proposed system is effective and suitable as an interactive learning platform to enhance students’ understanding of control system concepts.</em></p> Muhammad Iqbal Heri Subagiyo Yusmar Palapa Wijaya Amirul Huda Copyright (c) 2026 MUhammad Iqbal, Heri Subagiyo, Yusmar Palapa Wijaya, Amirul Huda https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-04-23 2026-04-23 18 1 70 82 10.5614/joki.2026.18.1.6 Integration of Sensor-Based IoT Automation for Feeding and Cleaning in Smart Bird Cage Systems https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/joki/article/view/26869 <p class="AbstractJOKI" style="line-height: normal;">Pet songbirds require consistent care, but prolonged owner absence often leads to irregular feeding and poor sanitation. Existing IoT-based bird care systems remain fragmented, focusing primarily on single aspects like feeding, while sanitation mechanisms are often mechanically complex or ignored. This study proposes an integrated IoT autonomous bird cage that uniquely combines feeding, watering, and a simplified stepper-motor-driven brush-and-spray cleaning mechanism into a single framework. Controlled by an Arduino Uno R4 WiFi and an RTC module for precise offline scheduling, the system utilizes a robust capacitive sensor for water monitoring to overcome the unreliability of standard acoustic sensors in confined micro-climates. Experimental testing demonstrated sub-centimeter sensor accuracy and a 0% failure rate for automated water refilling, outperforming the 20% failure rate observed in the ultrasonic feed sensor. Furthermore, the novel cleaning subsystem achieved a 94% quantitative waste removal efficiency. These results confirm the proposed architecture is a reliable, comprehensive solution that significantly reduces manual intervention in smart pet management.</p> Muhammad Farid Rahman Muhammad Khoirul Anam Faiz Husnayain Rifki Suwandi Copyright (c) 2026 Muhammad Faris Rahman, Muhammad Khoirul Anam, Faiz Husnayain, Rifki Suwandi https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-04-23 2026-04-23 18 1 83 92 10.5614/joki.2026.18.1.7 Design and Implementation of an IoT-Based Water Quality Monitoring System Using Salinity and Temperature for Malaria Mosquito Larval Habitat Risk Identification https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/joki/article/view/26856 <p><em>Malaria remains a public health problem in Indonesia, particularly in endemic coastal regions where aquatic habitats serve as breeding sites for Anopheles larvae. This study develops a multi-point Internet of Things (IoT)-based aquatic environmental monitoring system to detect conditions that support larval development through real-time measurement of water salinity and temperature. The system employs a WQ7706D digital salinity sensor, an ESP32 microcontroller, and a low-power NRF24L01 wireless communication module. Laboratory testing indicates that the sensor achieves stable readings after a 20-second stabilization period, with salinity variation of ±0,05 ppt under steady conditions. Field implementation at two coastal water sites in Hanura Village recorded salinity ranges of 1,35–2,3 ppt and temperature ranges of 28,8–30,5°C, which potentially support larval development. The wireless communication system successfully transmitted data up to 150 m with minimal packet loss. Power consumption analysis shows a daily energy requirement of 1,794 Ah, enabling autonomous operation for 10 ± 1</em> <em> days using a 12 V 20 Ah battery without recharging.

This study aims to design an adaptive traffic light control system based on a Mamdani-type Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) by integrating three input variables: the number of vehicles, queue length, and vehicle type/size. The novelty of this research lies in the use of the vehicle type variable as an explicit input within the FLC model. The system was designed by determining the universe of discourse, membership functions, and a base of 27 IF-THEN rules, which were then implemented in Python using the scikit-fuzzy library through MIN-MAX inference mechanisms and Centroid of Area (COA) defuzzification. Testing was conducted on 27 input combinations representing traffic conditions ranging from low to heavy. The simulation results show that the generated green light duration ranges from 5.09 to 91.60 seconds, with a tendency to increase alongside the rise in the number of vehicles, queue length, and vehicle size. Thus, the proposed model is capable of generating green light duration decisions that are more responsive and representative of mixed traffic conditions.</em></p> Yulia Nur Rahmatin Tina Ainur Rahma Mochamad Naser Ramadhan Ahmad Aminudin Copyright (c) 2026 Yulia Nur Rahmatin, Tina Ainur Rahma, Mochamad Naser Ramadhan, Ahmad Aminudin https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-04-27 2026-04-27 18 1 134 146 10.5614/joki.2026.18.1.11 Development of a Desktop Application for an Automated Storage System Based on Robotics and Computer Vision https://journals.itb.ac.id/index.php/joki/article/view/27309 <p><em>Conventional storage and management processes in industrial sector are highly vulnerable to risks such as data entry errors, disorganized item placement, and time in</em><em>efficiency due to human intervention.

In Indonesia, SD measurement still heavily relies on manual Campbell–Stokes (CS) recorders, which are prone to subjective errors, labor-intensive, and unreliable under cloudy conditions. This study develops a low-cost IoT-based SD logger using a solar cell and an INA219 sensor to estimate direct solar radiation. An ESP32 microcontroller processes the data, supported by an RTC module and an SD card for timestamping and local storage. Calibration was performed against Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) satellite data, applying the WMO pyrheliometric threshold of 120 W/m². Remote access is provided via a Telegram bot. A 14-day field test yielded RMSE = 104.8 W/m², MAE = 56.1 W/m², and stronger correlation against CAMS (R² = 0.640, r = 0.802) than CS (r = 0.749). The mean daily SD difference was 1.09 hours against CAMS and 2.03 hours against CS. Binary classification for sunshine detection achieved an accuracy of 88.4%, precision of 79.3%, recall of 77.2%, and F1-score of 78.2%. This prototype offers an automated, accurate, weatherproof, and remotely accessible alternative to conventional CS recorders, with strong potential to advance SD monitoring and modernize meteorological infrastructure in Indonesia.</p> Mohammad Attar Gibran Adrian Renaldi Rachmat Afif Izaaz Neil Farel Rindra Tempo Gabrielle Luoise Abraham Vasco Yehezkiel Sidauruk Kris Anderson P.

This study presents the development and experimental evaluation of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based environmental monitoring and automated irrigation system for agricultural applications. The system integrates a NodeMCU ESP8266 microcontroller with capacitive soil moisture, soil pH, and DHT11 temperature sensors to monitor key environmental parameters. Data are transmitted via Wi-Fi to the Blynk cloud platform, enabling real-time monitoring through a smartphone interface and a 16×2 LCD display. Automated irrigation is implemented using a relay-controlled 5V DC water pump that operates based on predefined soil moisture thresholds. Experimental validation was conducted by comparing sensor measurements with a standard reference instrument (ETP-302). The results indicate average errors of 3.4% for soil moisture, 4.1% for soil pH, and 2.8% for temperature measurements. The irrigation system successfully activated within the dry soil threshold range (430–520 ADC) and stopped automatically when sufficient moisture was reached, reducing unnecessary water consumption. Overall, the proposed low-cost IoT-based system demonstrates reliable performance, acceptable accuracy, and effective irrigation control, supporting smart agriculture and sustainable precision water management.</p> Yogi Priyo Istiyono Siti Rokhmanila Ojak Abdul Rozak Copyright (c) 2026 Yogi Priyo Istiyono, Siti Rokhmanila, Ojak Abdul Rozak https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-04-30 2026-04-30 18 1 175 189 10.5614/joki.2026.18.1.14
