IND4.0 students of the Master of Electrical Engineering (MTE) Faculty of Engineering, Syiah Kuala University (USK), and DS&AI students of the Master of Artificial Intelligence, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA) USK,
were presenters at the international conference IEEE Global Conference on Consumer Electronics (GCCE) 2023, the 12th held by the IEEE Consumer Technology Society (CTSoc), Japan on 10-13 October 2023. This year's IEEE GCCE conference was held in a hybrid manner by presenting various research related to information technology, artificial intelligence, technology security and smart cities. Some of the countries involved include Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, New Zealand, Thailand, Germany, India and the Philippines.
The IND4.0 student team represented by Wildan Mumtaz, Muhammad Jurej Alhamdi, Nizam Albar, Teuku Abrar Mifta, and Jamalur Ridha presented research with the title "A Low-cost Raspberry Pi and Deep Learning System for Customer Analysis". This research explains how buyer analysis can be applied to an artificial intelligence-based system integrated on a microcomputer with a low computing load that is efficient and economical.
In another paper, the DS-AI team represented by Teuku Rizky Noviandy, Aga Maulana and Faris Khowarizmi, with the research title presented "Effect of CLAHE-based Enhancement on Bean Leaf Disease Classification through Explainable AI" presented research related to the effect of using CLAHE (Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization) in improving the quality of leaf images on the performance of leaf disease classification models and applying explainable artificial intelligence (Explainable AI). Both of these studies were supervised directly by Dr. Ir. Kahlil, S.T., M.Eng. (IEEE Senior Member) and received positive responses and input from examiners at the international conference.
The Erasmus+ IND4.0 project has been running since 2019 and will be implemented at USK as part of the Master of Science in Electrical Engineering. Apart from that, the Erasmus+ DS&AI project at USK was established on June 25 2021 and began accepting students in the odd semester of the 2021/2022 academic year. To date, USK has participated in nine Erasmus+ activities, namely: EXPERTS Program, INDOPED, SPIRE, S-FARM, DS/AI, Ind4.0, OPTBANK, UN4DRR, SPIRIT and CABNEI.
