This study deals with the Feed Forward Neutral Network (FFNN) model to classify the level content of waste based on teaching and learning concept. An FFNN with twenty images is used for testing the input samples through the neural network learning to compute the sum squared error to ensure the performance of the model. After several training the neural network was able to learn and match the target. Thirty images for each class are used as a fullest of inputs samples for classifying. Result from the neural network and the rules decision are used to build the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) graph. Decision graph show the performance of the system based on Area Under Curve (AUC) for the solid waste system is classified as WS-Class equal to 0.9875 and as WS-grade equal to 0.8293. The system has been successfully designated with the motivation of waste been monitoring system, to escalate the results that can applied to wide variety of local municipal authorities system.
