Abstract

There are various ways to improve the quality of someone's education, one of them is reading. By reading, insight and knowledge of various kinds of things can increase. But, the ability and someone's understanding of reading is different. This can be a problem for readers if the reading material exceeds his comprehension ability. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the load of reading material using Lexile Levels. Lexile Levels are a value that gives a size the complexity of reading material and someone's reading ability. Thus, the reading material will be classified based a value on the Lexile Levels. Lexile Levels will cluster the reading material into 2 clusters which is easy, and difficult. The clustering process will use the k-means method. After the clustering process, reading material will be classified using the reading load Random Forest method. The k-means method was chosen because of the method has a simple computing process and fast also. Random Forest algorithm is a method that can build decision tree and it’s able to build several decision trees then choose the best tree. The results of this experiment indicate that the experiment scenario uses 2 cluster and SMOTE and GIFS preprocessing are carried out shows good results with an accuracy of 76.03%, precision of 81.85% and recall of 76.05%.
