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: Speaker Identification System Modeling Using MFCC as Feature Extraction and SVM as Pattern Recognition
Abstrak: Everyday people exchange information using voice may also exchange information with the media texts and tools. Voice signal every human has the character and qualities of different or unique. Indonesia has a diverse ethnic, communities and cultures, many problems are for the same word has different pronunciation patterns. Because of this problem could be a problem in the speaker identification system, so it is necessary to develop a system that is relatively more robust to the problem of intra-speaker variability and noise. Speaker identification system is more focused on the analysis of the two subsystems, namely Feature Extractor and Pattern Recogniser. Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCC) is one of feature extraction that is often used for processing the human voice for calculating the cepstral coefficients with the consideration of human hearing. Support Vector Machine (SVM) is one of the classification techniques of data with the supervised learning that is able to classify the multi-class so it is suitable for the classification of more than two classes. Data collection was performed using a microphone to record sound. Sound source was obtained from 10 adult speakers with differences in gender, age and ethnicity, which each speakers say 50 times the word "COMPUTER" so that obtained 500 data. Record duration is 2 seconds with a frequency of 16 KHz. Before data is processed, a preprocessing stage consisting of the elimination of silence, normalization and noise addition. Gaussian noise is added from the level of 80 dB to 0 dB. After the MFCC feature extraction is done, the next stage is SVM pattern recognition using QP and SMO algorithms. Kernel function tested for RBF, Linear, and Quadratic for each algorithm. Pattern Recognition using Kernel quadratic function with a ratio of 90 : 10 for the test data that the original sound without noise, SMO algorithm produces accuracy of 97.0% and the accuracy of the system can maintain above 70% up to 40dB noise addition. The number of errors for all 10 speakers using the test data of the original sound without noise is at most the number 9 speakers (Male, 41 years old, Java). The processing time SMO algorithm is better than the QP algorithm. Future studies may be added to increase the accuracy of Noise Cancelling the voice data is contaminated by noise.

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).
