Judul: Penentuan Frekuensi dalam Metode Polinom Lokal Kuadrat Terkecil untuk Mendeteksi Loncatan
Abstrak: Metode polinom lokal kuadrat terkecil adalah suatu metode statistika yang dapat digunakan untuk mendeteksi adanya loncatan persamaan regresi. Metode ini didasarkan pada pengepasan suatu fhgsi polinom terhadap tetangga terdekat dari beberapa data. Banyaknya data setiap tetangga disebut fiekuensi (k). Penentuan fiekuensi yang tepat diperlukan untuk mendapatkan hasil pendeteksian yang benar. Penentuan ini dilakukan dengan simulasi.

Abstrak: Ordinary least squares method is generally used to estimate parameter of a linear model. However, ordinary least squares is vulnerable against outliers because this method treats every element of data with equal weight. To overcome this problem, several studies have been done to find methods that produce more robust estimator. The robust methods being studied in this paper are weighted least squares, least absolute deviations, least median squares, and least trimmed squares methods. The comparison among those methods indicates that the method of least absolute deviation and weighted least squares are more resistant in case of the presence of outliers in the dependent variable. Meanwhile, least median squares and least trimmed squares methods are resistant to the presence of outliers both in the dependent and independent variable.

Abstrak: Animal hides or skins are the most valuable by product of the meat industry. Most of those hides are converted into leather by leather tanning process. Chrome based tanning is the most popular tanning process. At the chrome based tanning process, a lot of amount chrome are throw away into the environment that make a significant effect to the biological and ecological environment damaged. Due to concerns over the use and disposal of chromed tanned leather, the leather industry is now facing increasing scrutiny over its use of chrome as tanning agent. The use of non-chrome tannages has gradually become pre-eminent to producing leather, particularly in the European automotive leather markets. Chamois leather is one of leather product. It is produced from animal hides/skins by oil tanning process, usually with fish oil. High price and odour problems to the chamois leather that produced using fish oil motivate to do some research to solve that problems. Rubber seed oil is an oil that predicted can substitute fish oil. Pretanning process is needed to increase the oil penetration and protects the pelt from putrefying during oxidation periods (Khrisnan et al., 2005). Relugan GT 50 is the agent that used on this research. Relugan GT 50 is an aldehyde tanning agent, produced by BASF. This research was aimed to find out the effects of Relugan GT 50 concentration (offer) and rubber seeds (Hevea brasiliensis) oil to the chamois leather’s quality. Beside that, this research is also aimed to decide the best combination of the factors to produce chamois leather also to know the chamois leather characteristics. The preliminary research was carried out by analyzing the rubber seed’s kernel and eggshell as well as physico-chemical properties of the rubber seed oil. The main research was done by tanning the skin with Relugan GT 50 in concentrations of 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5% followed by rubber seed oil concentrations of 10, 20, and 30%. The experimental design used was completely randomize factorial design. The preliminary research shows that rubber seed’s kernel was 49% and rubber seed’s eggshell was 51%. The rubber seed’s oil characterstics were density of 0.94 (g/cm3), viscosity of 48,4 centistokes, colour of 2713 PtCo units, inodine value 113 g iod/ 100 g, peroxide value of 24 miliequivalent/1000 gram oil, acid value of 15 mg KOH/g oil and FFA content of 5.8%. The research shows that Relugan GT 50 concentration significantly affected shrinkage temperature (Ts) and pH; rubber seed oil concentration significantly affect the organoleptic properties of the leather. The optimum conditions for the tanning were Relugan GT of 3.0% concentration and 10% rubber seeds oil. The physical properties of the leather were shrinkage temperature of 75oC, thickness of 0.92 mm, tensile strength of 21.50 N/mm2, elongation at break of 144%, tear strength of 55.77 N/mm, water absorption of 266% (2 hours) and 299% (24 hours). The chemical properties were oil content of 2.5%, ash content of 1.2% and pH of 8. The organoleptic properties were softness of 7–8, colour of 8-9, and odour of 8-9.
