Artificial Neural Network on Solid Waste Generation Based on Five (5) Categories Within Barangay Sagrada Familia in Hagonoy, Bulacan

Solid waste generation is one of the world’s most prevalent challenges, especially in places with crowded populations and inadequate solid waste disposal strategies. There are several extant influencing variables on solid waste creation. In this regard, the researchers focus on five (5) elements or categories that contributed the most to solid trash generation. The researchers sought to determine which one has the greatest influence on solid waste generation in Barangay Sagrada Familia among these five categories. This will contribute to their future solid waste management plan through minimizing, segregating, and recycling the solid waste, which is one of the causes of their flooding problem. ANN (Artificial Neural Network) is a simplified computational brain model that is one of the most often utilized artificial intelligence in solid waste management. To get the desired outcomes, Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB) testing is essential. The researchers gathered information from studies, theories, and literature in the field. The researchers then performed a survey to gather data and existing data in the barangay and used Excel and Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB) to construct the model for a Neural Network analysis. Finally, the authors analyzed the Neural Network, with the goal value varying according to Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient (R).
