Classification of Basurek Batik Using Pre-Trained VGG16 and Support Vector Machine

Abstract

By introducing Indonesian batik motifs, we know that the island of Sumatra, especially Bengkulu and Jambi provinces, has a distinctive batik called Basurek batik. This research aims to classify the two batik motifs using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. First, we extract the image of the batik motif with a pre-trained VGG-16 model and then use them as a dataset for the SVM classification process. The classification process itself uses linear, polynomial, and sigmoid kernels. We divided the data 90:10 and used 10-fold cross-validation to analyze each training and testing data classification result. The results of this study are the highest values of accuracy, precision, and recall of 76.4%, 76.5%, and 76.4% produced by the linear kernel for the training data classification. For the testing data classification, both the linear and polynomial kernels generate the best accuracy, precision, and recall values of 87.5%, 90%, and 85.5%. On average, incorporating the training and testing classification results, we found that the linear kernel is the best function for classifying the Basurek batik motif using the collected images from the internet.
