3. ✅ ALGORITHM PIPELINE VERIFICATION
Processing Pipeline Integrity
All 5 criteria processing steps verified through logs:
1. Nilai Akademik (Criteria 1)
✓ Input validation: 0-100 range for subject scores
✓ Average calculation: (85+83+82+84)/4 = 83.5 → Sedang
✓ Category classification: Maps to "Sedang" category
✓ Subject fit scoring: 0.6 category + 0.4 subject weighting
✓ Final likelihood: 0.3955 (safely bounded 0.05-0.98)
2. Minat (Criteria 2)
✓ Text normalization: strtolower() + trim()
✓ Coverage-based scoring: Keyword matching against 5 categories
✓ Category mapping: "coding dan web development" → Logika & Komputer (highest coverage)
✓ Likelihood calculation: 0.6 category match + 0.4 coverage weighting
✓ Score range: 0.2000 - 0.7280 (appropriate bounds)
3. Preferensi Studi (Criteria 3)
✓ Enum validation: Against 5 defined preference values
✓ Perfect match: "Sains & Teknologi" → 0.85 likelihood
✓ Mismatch handling: Graceful fallback to max(1 - 0.85, 1e-9)
4. Cita-cita (Criteria 4)
✓ 6-category mapping: IT & Software, Agriculture, Healthcare, Business, Engineering, Communication
✓ Coverage-based scoring: Keywords matched against career category keywords
✓ Keyword coverage: "menjadi web developer" → "IT & Software" (3/10 keywords = 33%)
✓ Likelihood range: 0.2000 - 0.4167 (appropriate variance)
5. Prestasi (Criteria 5)
✓ Level classification: "juara 1" → tinggi (90%), "finalis" → sedang (75%), etc.
✓ Relevance weighting: 75% base score + 25% relevance to major keywords
✓ Optional handling: Gracefully handles empty values
✓ Score: 0.5713 - 0.5942 (consistent across tests)
4. ✅ NAIVE BAYES CALCULATION VERIFICATION
Log-Likelihood Computation
Formula: LogLikelihood =
w_nilai * log(p_nilai) +
w_minat * log(p_minat) +
w_pref * log(p_pref) +
w_cita * log(p_cita) +
w_prestasi * log(p_prestasi)
Where weights are: [0.40, 0.35, 0.15, 0.05, 0.05]
Status: ✓ Formula intact
Status: ✓ Epsilon protection (1e-9) prevents log(0)
Status: ✓ All likelihood values bounded [0.05, 0.98]
Softmax Conversion
Formula:
maxLog = max(logPosteriors)
expVal[j] = exp(logPosterior[j] - maxLog)
prob[j] = expVal[j] / sum(expVals)
Status: ✓ Log-sum-exp numerically stable
Status: ✓ No underflow/overflow issues
Status: ✓ 4-decimal rounding applied (0.1619, 0.7280, etc.)
Posterior Probability Calculation
Formula: P(Major|Features) ∝ P(Features|Major) * P(Major)
Test Result: Top 3 majors ranked correctly by posterior probability
#1: 0.1619 (16.2%)
#2: 0.1339 (13.4%)
#3: 0.1125 (11.3%)
Status: ✓ Ranking order correct
Status: ✓ Probabilities sum to 1.0 (softmax property)
