Judul: Pembobotan dalam Proses Pengindeksan Dokumen Bahasa Indonesia dengan Menggunakan Framework Indri
Abstrak: A very large amount of information has stimulated the development of information search engine to help users in finding information they need. To retrieve the information according to the user’s needs, information search engine should be able to work well. One of the factors that can affect the performance of search engines is indexing. The purpose of this research is to implement automatic indexing process using Indri framework with tf-idf and BM25 term weighting. This testing used 30 queries and 2000 documents. The testing result showed that the performance of information search engine is better when we use the BM25 term weighting than tf-idf term weighting. However, the performance of information search engine with BM25 term weighting and tf-idf term weighting gave good results with around 64% average precision. The number of indexed documents for indexing will affect the indexing time. Increasing of the number of indexed documents will increase the indexing time.

Abstrak: One of the classical models of Information Retrieval (IR) systems is the vector space model. Vector in this model represents the weight of terms contained in the documents and queries. A term can be a word, a phrase, or a unit in a document describing the context of the document. Since each term has a different level of importance in the document, weighting is needed. The commonly used weighting method is TF-IDF (Term Frequency Inverse Document Frequency). Previous research indicates that the distribution of term weighting follow the Poisson distribution, hence a method called RIDF (Residual Inverse Document Frequency) was developed. Other weighting methods by considering the query is called Query Term weighting. Both of the latter methods has not been implemented for documents in Indonesian. This research implements the methods TF-IDF, RIDF and Query Term Weighting on search engine for documents in Indonesian. The result of this research is a search engine with an average precision of 63,9%.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
