Judul: Aplikasi Android Penerjemah Bahasa non-Latin dengan Pengenalan Citra Karakter
Abstrak: Bahasa dengan karakter nonlatin merupakan bahasa yang sulit untuk dipelajari karena penulisannya yang relatif rumit. Beberapa bahasa yang menggunakan karakter nonlatin antara lain Arab, Cina (sederhana), Rusia, Jepang, Korea, dan Thailand. Pada penelitian ini, suatu sistem pengenalan karakter nonlatin berbasis Android dirancang untuk mengenali citra karakter nonlatin menggunakan Tesseract library OCR (Optical Character Recognition) dan menerjemahkannya menjadi bahasa Indonesia dan Inggris menggunakan Microsoft Translator. OCR adalah teknik untuk mengubah teks nondigital menjadi teks digital atau dapat diartikan sebagai pengenalan karakter optik. Pada penelitian ini terdapat 8 kebutuhan fungsional, yaitu memilih bahasa asal, mengambil citra menggunakan kamera dan memotongnya, mengambil citra melalui galeri, melakukan konversi dari citra ke teks, mengedit teks nonlatin hasil OCR, memilih bahasa tujuan, menampilkan hasil terjemahannya, dan me-reset aplikasi. Berdasarkan 650 contoh karakter nonlatin yang terdiri dari 5 bahasa telah diuji, nilai akurasi terbaik yang didapat adalah 95.03% pada kondisi pencahayaan normal. Adapun faktor-faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi akurasi tersebut antara lain: intensitas cahaya, kemiringan, fokus, dan penulisan secara vertikal. Evaluasi usability menghasilkan nilai 82.4%. Kata

Judul: Aplikasi Pencari Info Obat dengan Masukan Citra Teks Kemasan Obat Berbasis Android Menggunakan Tesseract OCR Engine
Abstrak: Detailed information on drug is usually written on a leaflet that can only be read when the package has been opened. It is difficult for consumers who just want to know the detailed information of certain drug to decide whether the drug will be bought or not. A solution is needed to convert drug brand text image into editable text, so that it can be used as a keyword query for drug info searching on the internet. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a process to convert image into editable text. Tesseract performs several processes to identify drug brand text image. The processes are image preprocessing, feature extraction, segmentation, and word recognition. This research developed an Android application to recognize drug brand text image. Tesseract is used because it has good accuracy in recognizing text with serif and sans serif font which have far density between characters. Drug packaging input image of the application can be taken from a camera or gallery. The best accuracy of this application in recognizing characters with 70 drug packaging images reached 96.80%.

Judul: Biology and ecology of the buffalo fly, haematobia exigua de meijere (diptera:muscidae)
Abstrak: The life history of the buffalo fly was observed at room temperature of 27°-29.5°C and at a relative humidity of 48-68 percent. The eggs hatched after 17-22 hours, with an average of 18 hours. First instar larvae measured 1.25 + 0.16 mm long and 0.27 + 0.037 mm wide. reach the second larval stage. It took 6-12 hours to the second instar larvae measured 2.676 +0.187 mm long and 0.353 +0.028 mm wide. The second instar took about 12-24 hours to reach the third larval stage. The third instar measured 6.833 + 0.189 mm long and 0.919 + 0.051 mm wide. It took about 2-3 days for the third instar to become pupae. Duration of the pupal stage was about 5-7 days before the adults emerged. Under laboratory condition, the buffalo fly completed its life cycle in 9.5 to 10.5 days, whereas under field condition it took 9-14 days with an average of 10.5 days. The growth ratio which was based on the measurements of the cephalo-pharyngeal skeleton of each instar was 1.797. The preoviposition period was 8-12 days and mating usually occurred on the 6th or 7th day. The longevity of the male was 29 days, whereas it was 32 days in the female. The range of egg production under laboratory condition was between 20-139 per female fly. The belly and hind legs of the carabao were the most preferred habitat either during cloudy and cool dry or shiny and warm day. When the weather was clear and the carabao was in the shade, the flies tended to be more distributed particularly on the shoulder, dewlap, back and horns. The carabaos had relatively fewer Musca sp. and Stomoxys calcitrans than cattle; never the less carabaos had a higher infestation of buffalo fly than cattle. Oviposition occured either during the day or night but the buffalo flies were more active during the night than in the day time. The effect of various lengths of exposure time of manure in relation to the oviposition was profound. observed, the maximum number of the buffalo flies was occurred when the dung was exposed for 30 minutes. With increasing time of exposure the number and variety of insects also increase. It was evident that Sepsidae and psychodidae were the most dominant insects emerging from the dung. The number of buffalo flies also increased with increasing
