<![CDATA[Bantuan Pangan Non Tunai (BPNT) is assistance distributed by the government to underprivileged communities to ease the financial burden that is increasingly burdening their lives. In a number of cases, it was found that the number of people who received BPNT was not properly targeted, so it was necessary to analyze the pattern of the characteristics of BPNT recipients so that the assistance was right on target. There are many criteria that must be considered to determine the people who are entitled to receive BPNT, so an appropriate algorithm is needed to determine the right cluster when analyzing characteristic patterns. This study applies the K-Medoids algorithm to classify BPNT data obtained from Firza Syahputra's research in 2020–2021, with a total of 732 attributes, so that the government can consider the factors that characterize beneficiaries. Perform tests using the Silhouette coefficient, which is useful for maximizing clustering results. The clustering result is three clusters, and the silhouette coefficient is 0.4439221599010089. The results of the analysis show that clustering performed using the K-Medoids algorithm can assume that clusters are grouped according to grouping: cluster 0 is eligible to receive BPNT, cluster 1 is considered, and cluster 2 is not eligible to receive BPNT.]]>
