Judul: Pengenalan Suara Berdasarkan Usia dan Jenis Kelamin Menggunakan Algoritme Support Vector Machine (SVM)
Abstrak: Voice recognition using computers is made possible due to the unique characteristics and frequencies that each voice possesses. These vocal characteristics can be grouped according to gender (male or female) or age (child, teenager, or adult). The purpose of this research is to identify individual voices that have been placed within one of the groups based on age and gender. The data used comes from the research of Fransiswa (2010) and consists of six classes: boys (AL), girls (AP), teenage boys (RL), teenage girls (RP), men (TL), and women (TP). The method used to extract vocal characteristics was the Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficient (MFCC) and pattern recognition was performed using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) with several variations of the kernel such as Linear, Polynomial, and Radial Basis Function (RBF). The parameters affecting the MFCC process include: The value of the coefficients, overlap, time frame, and the rate of sampling. The average highest accuracy value of 98,24% was obtained using the RBF Kernel

Judul: Perbandingan Metode Pengenalan Pola Suara Menggunakan Codebook dan Probabilistic Neural Network Berdasarkan Kisaran Usia dan Jenis Kelamin
Abstrak: Voice signal be used to identify a speaker, including the age range and gender based on the difference of its frequency characteristic. This research compares two method of voice identification namely codebook and probability neural network (PNN) in recognizing the age range and gender of the speaker. In this research, the age range is divided into three categories namely children (8-11 years old), teenagers (12-17 years old) and adults (30-50 years old). Each age category is divided based on gender, so that there are six categories in total. This research utilized 600 voice data representing the total six categories. MFCC is used as a method of feature extraction, whereas K-means is used as the clustering method. Several important parameters in the MFCC process are the number of cepstral coefficients, overlap, and time frame. The overlap and time frame values are 0.5 and 40 ms, respectively; whereas the chosen cepstral coefficients to produce the maximum accuracy are 13, 20, and 26. The comparison of voice identification is constructed from three different proportions of training data and testing data (25%:75%, 50%:50%, 75%:25%). It is shown that the accuracy of codebook method is 97.20% whereas that of PNN is 95.17%.

Judul: Mercury Toxicity and It’s Effect on Histopathology Change of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
Abstrak: Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is one of fish species that oportunity to contaminated with mercury. The effects of pollutants can damage living organisms organs and can cause death. The effects caused mercury had acute or chronic character. The aims of this study are to determine threshold and acute toxicity of mercury chloride (HgCl2) of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), to assess the effect of mercury chloride (HgCl2) on several biometric parameters (survival, growth rate of average daily weighted, liver condition, bile and reproductive variability of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), assess the level of damage to the histological structure of the gills, liver and kidney of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) caused mercury chloride (HgCl2) exposure. This study was conducted from February to June 2013. Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were used in this study were female with average weight 20 grams or 11-13 cm length range. Toxicant materials used in this study was mercury chloride (HgCl2). Fish were reared in each aquarium 60x40x30 containing 48 liters of water. This study consists of three stages: a preliminary test, acute test, and sub-chronic test. To determine the changes in biometric condition of tilapia approximated by measuring the survival rate (SR), the growth rate of average daily weight , the content of mercury in the fish organs, hepatosomatic index (HSI), the relative bile volume (VER), gonadal soamtic index (IKG), fecundity and oocit diameter, tissue damage caused by mercury in fish organs by making histological preparations stained with hematoxylin and eosin. The median lethal concentration (96 hr, LC50) of Mercury Chloride was calculated as 1,64 mgL--1.The survival rate was highest in the control treatment (46,67 %) . Mercury chloride with concentration 0.196 mgL--1 show significant effect to changes HSI and relative bile volume, and oocyte diameter of Nile tilapia (p < 0,05). Mercury chloride with a concentration of 0,164 mgL-1 and 0,196 mgL-1 have not a significant effect on the growth rate of weight, gonadal somatic index and fecundity of Nile tilapia (p > 0,05). Mercury chloride cause damage to gills (hyperplasia, hypertrophy, proliferation and neukrosis), liver (hyperplasia, hemorhage, shrinkage of hepatocytes, proliferation and neukrosis) and kidney (hyperplasia, hemorrhage, shrinkage of the glomerulus, proliferation and neukrosis).
