Research Aiding the Medical Sector
Dr. Muhammad Misdram successfully earned his doctoral degree and became the first graduate of the Doctoral Computer Science Department in 2024. At the open defending session, he managed to defend his dissertation entitled ‘Handling a Small Unbalanced Dataset on Classification Using the Gaussian Based-Smotedan Gradually Generative Adversarial Network (GradGan).’ According to Dr. Muhammad Misdram, he conducted research to aid the medical sector and developed a method with the capability of detecting and predicting patients’ recovery.
“I have been researching this topic for two years. This GradGan method detects the accuracy values of the tested dataset with the best accuracy possible,” he explained.
Misdram admitted that the Doctoral Computer Science Department at Udinus had an excellent education system, and the faculty members were able to guide their students to graduate with the best results.
“I did not doubt when I enrolled here at Udinus and became its first cohort. This is because Udinus is one of the best IT campuses in Central Java with a good accreditation and institution,” Dr. Muhammad Misdram revealed.
During developing his dissertation, Dr. Muhammad Misdram was instructed by three promotors, namely, Prof. Dr. Ir. Edi Noersasongko, M.Kom., Purwanto, S.Si., M.Kom., Ph.D., and Dr. Muljono, S.Si., M.Kom. (Humas Udinus/Alex. Foto: Humas Udinus)
