SENTIMENT ANALYSIS OF E - COMMERCE TOKOPEDIA REVIEWS USING MT5

Berlian Ishma Zhafira Sujana, Ir. Indriati, S.T, M.Kom., Rizal Setya Perdana, S.Kom., M.Kom., Ph.D.Pages 1-7AI and Robotics

Sentiment analysis of Indonesian e-commerce reviews plays an important role in understanding user perceptions of products and services. Transformer-based models, particularly the Multilingual Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer (mT5), provide an effective text-to-text approach for sentiment classification tasks. However, model performance is highly influenced by the selection of training hyperparameters. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of batch size variation and number of training epochs on the performance of the mT5 model in Tokopedia review sentiment classification. The dataset consists of Indonesian reviews categorized into two sentiment classes, positive and negative. The research stages include preprocessing, SentencePiece tokenization, mT5 model training, and evaluation using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1- score metrics. The experimental results show that a smaller batch size tends to produce more stable performance but requires longer training time, while a larger batch size requires more epochs to reach optimal convergence. The configuration using batch size 4 and 10 epochs achieves the best performance with a training accuracy of 0.963. These findings highlight the importance of proper hyperparameter selection in optimizing Transformerbased models for Indonesian sentiment analysis.

Indigenous artisans of the Panay Bukidnon community continue to struggle with preserving their cultural heritage and promoting their handmade products due to limited market access, labor-intensive profiling processes, and the absence of digital tools that support fair pricing and broader cultural visibility. These challenges restrict their economic opportunities and hinder the passing down of traditional craftsmanship. To address this gap, this study developed Sa Gugma sa Atong Kultura, a community-driven marketplace for indigenous artisan designed to highlight Panay Bukidnon culture while enabling artisans to manage their profiles, showcase products, and engage in direct e-commerce transactions. Using an Agile development process, the system was built as a responsive web application with a React.js frontend, Node.js backend, and MySQL database. Twenty-six participants including Indigenous artisans, the Head of the Calinog Indigenous Peoples Office, customers, and IT experts were involved through interviews, surveys, observations, and system testing. The platform integrates key features such as artisan profiling, cultural content, messaging, and a machine learning-based dynamic pricing algorithm that adjusts product prices based on historical data, seasonal patterns, and local supply and demand. Results showed that the system is excellent with an overall mean score of 4.80 and received positive evaluations in functionality, usability, reliability, performance efficiency, maintainability, and portability based on an ISO/IEC 25010:2011-adapted assessment. Overall, the findings demonstrate that the platform not only promotes the cultural identity of the Panay Bukidnon community

StudySync: A Licensure Exam for Teachers Review Application

Pauline B. Estoque, Chasty F. Dayag, Rafael A. BesanaPages 105-117Web and Mobile

This study aimed to develop an application entitled “StudySync: A Licensure Exam for Teachers Review Application”. The study utilized a descriptive - developmental method of research. Android Studio was used to create the application. The Agile Met hodology - Scrum Framework guided the research and system development. The application included key features such as a timed simulation exam, an analytics page displaying bar graphs for each subject, and a profile section where users could view their quiz history and upload a profile photo. A total enumeration technique was employed to evaluate the application. The data was gathered using a standardized questionnaire deve loped by John Brooke in 1986, the System Usability Scale (SUS). The usability of StudyS ync was evaluated by 70 4 th - year students from the College of Education of ISUFST - San Enrique Campus. The data were tabulated and analyzed using the mean. The results revealed that the developed StudySync system achieved a grand System Usability Score (SUS ) of 92.02, graded as A+, falling within the 90 - 95 percentile range, and is described as “Excellent”. The system was deemed highly acceptable, with a Net Promoter Score (NPS) categorized as “Promoter”. Based on these findings, the College of Education may encourage students to utilize StudySync as a su pplementary tool for reviewing for the LET, and may upload the application to the Google Play Store to reach a wider audience, and develop a tutorial video to guide students in using the system effectively. T his study was conducted at the Iloilo State University of Fisheries Science and Technology - San Enrique Campus (ISUFST - SEC) in San Enrique, Iloilo, from August to October 2025.

This research aimed to develop "ResearcHive: A Mobile - Based Research Repository Application" and evaluate its usability. Using a descriptive - developmental method, the study was conducted at Iloilo State University of Fisheries, Science and Technology - San Enrique Campus, from August to November 2025. The study employed a System Development Life Cycle - Waterfall Model. The mobile application was developed using Android Studio with Java and XML, and the web application was created in Visual Studio Code using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with Supabase functioning as the database. The system allows users to add, update, store, manage, and generate analytics and report s of research studies, as well as browse, search, and download research documents anytime and anywhere. The study utilized a standardized questionnaire checklist designed by John Brooke (1986) to assess its usability. The respondents were four (4) research coordinators from the four (4) departments, the librarian, and two hundred fifty - seven (257) third - year and fourth - year students, forty (40) from the College of Education, forty - five (45) from the College of Computer Studies, seventy - five (75) from the College of Agriculture, and ninety - seven (97) from the College of Management, randomly selected students of ISUFST - SEC. The data gathered was tabulated and analyzed using the System Usability Score (SUS). The system got an SUS score of 96.16, denoting an "A+" grade and within the 96 - 100 Percentile. It can be described as 'Best Imaginable' and 'Acceptable' as to its acceptability, and having a Net Promoter Score described as "Promoter." Based on the results, the study recommends integrating a chatbot for user assistance, including faculty research, and expanding the system to other campuses for a unified repository.
