Abstract

Information about rainfall levels at a time and in a region is very important because rainfall influences human activities. Rainfall is the amount of water that falls to the earth in a certain period of time, measured in millimeters. One piece of information related to rainfall is daily rainfall predictions. In this study, an attempt was made to classify daily rainfall at the Padang Pariaman climatology station into 5 categories, namely very light rain, light rain, moderate rain, heavy rain and very heavy rain. There are 4 weather parameters used, namely air temperature, humidity, wind speed and duration of sunlight. One of the methods used to predict rainfall is data mining, a computer learning to analyze data automatically thus obtaining a perfect new model. One of the best prediction algorithms in data mining is Fuzzy K-Nearest Neighbor (FK-NN). FK-NN uses the largest membership degree value of the test data in each class to predict the class. The number of sample classes for rainfall data in Padang Pariaman Regency has an imbalance class. To overcome the imbalance class, Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) method is used to generate minority data as much as majority data. The results of this study by using FK-NN classification with 343 test data, parameters K = 12, and euclidean distance is quite good at the accuracy level of 76,38%..
