According to recent studies, several factors that contribute to the increasing prevalence of obesity in Indonesia include poor diet, lack of consumption of vegetables and fruits, high consumption of fast food, area of residence, and lack of physical activity. In addition, psychological factors, high consumption of alcohol and cigarettes, cultural differences, and stress factors also trigger obesity. The rapid development of the medical field cannot be separated from the availability of data that is increasingly easy to access and increasing knowledge in the medical field. This makes machine learning increasingly needed for pattern recognition from very large medical data, including obesity data. In this study, the factors that influence obesity status in Indonesia will be determined. In order to achieve this, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) was used. This method is one of the classification methods that has better scalability and more efficient over its previous methods. Besides that, to overcome the imbalanced data, Adaptive Synthetic Nominal Algorithm (ADASYN-N) is used in order to balance the data and improve its prediction accuracy. Both the ADASYN-N and XGBoost methods will be applied to obesity data from the Indonesian Basic Health Research Survey in 2013. This study shows that female is more at risk in determining obesity status in Indonesia based on the highest gain value (37%). In addition, age 35-54 years, strenuous activity, and eating vegetables for 6 days are also risk factors of obesity.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Indonesian Journal of Statistics and Its Applications}, author={Rombe, Yoris and Thamrin, Sri Astuti and Lawi, Armin}, year={2022}, month={Aug.}, pages={309–317} }
