Forest fires are one of the disasters that cause problems for the environment. Forest fires can cause damage and threats, not only to forest resources but also to the entire ecosystem, both fauna and plants that can damage biodiversity and the environment of an area and can endanger human life. The source of forest fires was initially thought to come from a dry and hot environment, but in some cases, forest fires are triggered by human activities in clearing land for agriculture or other purposes. One of the factors that influence the spread of forest fires is several variables combined with humidity levels, wind speed, and rainfall. In this study, researchers used machine learning algorithms KNN and Naïve Bayes to predict forest fires and compare the results of the performance levels of each method used. The results obtained indicate that the naive Bayes method has an accuracy value of 53.33% and K-NN has an accuracy value of 62.66%

Beetles (Order Coleoptera) are the largest order of animals. Beetles are a group of insects that make up the order Coleoptera. Estimates of the total number of living beetle species are millions of beetle species whose features make it difficult to visually identify beetle species. Currently, the beetle classification process is still carried out using direct observation and personal assumptions. CNN model ResNet50 is one of the ResNet variants that has 50 layers and VGG16 is a CNN model that utilizes a convolutional layer with a small convolutional filter specification (3×3) and always uses the same padding and maxpool layers of a 2x2 filter. In this Algorithm (CNN) with the ResNet50 model, it succeeded in exploring beetles with accuracy, precision, recall and F-1 Score with values of 93%, 94.24%, 89.28%, 91.69%, while the VGG16 model succeeded in conducting research on beetle species with accuracy, precision, recall and F-1 Score with values of 86.9%, 87.5%, 87%, 87.2%, so it can be said that the classification of beetle species using the CNN algorithm with the ResNet50 model is better than the VGG16 model.

One of the private universities in Pekanbaru, which has nine postgraduate faculties and 10 faculties with 21 study programs. The number of the academic community is quite large, there is already a whats app group that facilitates the entire Academic Community in terms of transacting selling goods or services online. However, in practice it has not been fully effective, one of which is because there are no clear rules in trade ethics, for example, one person may only post a maximum of two products a day because if there are too many, it will overwrite other seller's product postings as well. This often happens, causing whats app groups are only dominated by one or two people who post all the products sold along with their customer testimonials. This of course can harm other sellers, it can also disturb the comfort of the group for both sellers and buyers. Therefore, to answer these problems, a market place is proposed specifically for the entire XYZ’s Academic Community.

Published: November 2022

Employee attrition is a reduction in employees that happens gradually. Employee attrition can damage the organization of a company, including the projects and its employee structure. This study aims to predict employee attrition in a company using the logistic regression method. Employee attrition can be predicted using machine learning because the machine learning approach is not biased due to human interference. In addition, human resources in a company need to know the most influential factors that cause the occurrence of employee attrition. In this study, we proposed feature selection methods to identify those influential factors and simplify the data training. Our approach is to predict employee attrition with three kinds of feature selection methods, namely information gain, select k-best, and recursive feature elimination (RFE). The 10-fold cross-validation was performed as an evaluation method. Prediction of employee attrition using the logistic regression method without applying feature selection gets an accuracy value of 0.865 and an AUC score of 0.932. However, by applying the RFE feature selection showed the highest evaluation result than information gain and select k-best, with an accuracy value of 0.853 and an AUC score of 0.925

Published: November 2022

The Program Indonesia Pintar (PIP) is an educational scholarship from the government for students who lack funds to continue their education, one of which is at the junior high school level. It is still done manually when selecting students who are eligible to receive the PIP scholarship at the junior high school level. This is less efficient because the selection process will take a long to analyze, and the reporting process is not yet computerized. To overcome these problems, a decision support system is needed to assist schools in selecting students who receive PIP assistance. The method used for the development of a decision support system is Simple Additive Weighting (SAW). The choice of this method is because the decision-making process is carried out by searching for the highest alternative from all alternatives so that the assessment is more accurate based on the provisions of the criteria values and preference weights. With the construction of this system, it is expected to be able to provide a solution so that the student selection decision-making process can be carried out quickly and accurately.

Published: November 2022

Background. The study aimed to compare the airway morphology and hyoid bone position in children undergoing adenoidectomy or adenotonsillectomy with healthy individuals with no skeletal problems in similar age and development period. Methods. The subjects in the study were divided into three groups. These groups were defined as those having undergone adenoidectomy (53 children), those having undergone adenotonsillectomy (48 children), and the systemically healthy control group (63 children). Seventeen pharyngeal airway, nine hyoid, and four area measurements were used in the cephalometric radiographs of the children in all the groups. One-way analysis of variance was used to evaluate the children in each group. In addition, Tukey tests were used for a bilateral comparison of significant parameters. The results were considered statistically significant at P<0.05. Results. The mean age of 164 patients in the study group was 12.76±2.85 years. The vertical airway length significantly decreased in the adenotonsillectomy group compared to other groups, while the epiglottic pharyngeal length significantly increased in the former than in the latter (P<0.05). The area measurements showed that although the oropharynx area significantly increased in the adenotonsillectomy group compared to other groups, the hypopharynx and total area measurements were significantly different compared with the control group (P<0.05). No statistically significant difference was found between the three groups in all measurements of the hyoid bone position (P>0.05). Conclusion. The study showed that adenotonsillectomy operations caused more increases in the oropharynx and hypopharynx parts of the pharyngeal airway. Adenoidectomy and adenotonsillectomy operations did not contribute significantly to the hyoid bone position.

Background. Lichen planus is considered a potentially malignant condition with an unknown etiology. This study aimed to determine the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and IgG serum levels in different oral lichenoid lesions before and after treatment with local corticosteroids. Methods. Two groups of 23 individuals, including oral ulcerative lichenoid lesions patients and healthy ones, were evaluated. Toluidine blue staining and biopsy examinations were carried out while visual analog scale (VAS) was used to evaluate symptoms. By applying corticosteroids, CEA and IgG serum levels were determined before and three weeks after intervention and at the end of the study (9 weeks) with ELISA and turbidimetry methods, respectively. Results. Before the intervention, there was no significant difference in CEA serum levels between the control and case groups (P=0.19). Moreover, the CEA serum levels indicated no significant difference before and after treatment in the case group (P=0.30). While IgG serum level was significantly higher before the intervention (P=0.01), it decreased significantly in the case group after treatment (P=0.02). In addition, pain intensity reduced significantly in the case group (P=0.05). According to statistics, 8.2% out of 21.7% of patients with positive staining results exhibited dysplasia signs. Conclusion. However, neither CEA nor IgG serum levels were different in patients diagnosed with or without dysplasia and positive or negative staining results (P>0.05). IgG serum levels and pain severity effectively decreased in the oral ulcerative lichenoid lesions patients treated with local corticosteroids. Therefore, this treatment can be considered an effective and low-complication treatment modality for lichenoid lesions.

Authors: Afrah Ramin , Amini Zahra , Kafieh Rahele , Vard Alireza
Published: November 2022

Background. Brain computer interface (BCI) systems by extracting knowledge from brain signals provide a connection channel to the outside world for disabled people, without physiological interfaces. Event-related potentials (ERPs) are a specific type of electroencephalography signals and P300 is one of the most important ERP components. The critical part of P300-based BCI systems is classification step. In this research, an approach is proposed for P300 classification based on novel machine learning methods using convolutional neural networks (CNN) and autoencoder networks. Methods. In the pre-processing step, channel selection, data augmentation (by ADASYN method), filtering and base-line drift were done. Then, in the classification step, four different CNN classifiers including CNN1D, CNN2D, CNN1D_Autoencoder, and CNN2D-Autoencoder were used for P300 classification. Results. After implementation and tuning the networks, 92% as a best accuracy was achieved by CNN2D_Autoencoder. This result was achieved with a considerable tradeoff between complexity and stability. Conclusion. The acquired results emphasize the ability of the deep learning methods in P300 classification and approve the advantage of using them in BCI systems. Furthermore, autoencoder versions of CNN networks are more stable and have a faster convergence. Meanwhile, ADASYN is a suitable method for augmentation of P300 data and even ERPs by sustaining the premier feature space without copying data. Practical Implications. Our results can increase the accuracy of P300 detection and simultaneously reduce the volume of data using the proposed model. Consequently, they can improve character recognition in P300-speller systems generally used by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients.

Education is a continuous effort to teach, educate, encourage and develop children’s potential. Education can not only be done in the school environment, but also in the family environment. In the perspective of the Christian faith, education begins in the womb. Education during the womb (prenatal) is education carried out by parents to their children, before the child is born. This is a sign that parents are carefully preparing children with Christian characters, who are able to grow in their existence as Christian youths. The main goal of educating children in the womb is not for intelligence, but stimulating children to have physical and spiritual potential that is ready to be developed in the real world. By using a literature review method, namely by examining various reading sources related to the research topic, it was found that prenatal education was oriented towards Christian religious education in the family which indirectly started from the mother, by maintaining behavior based on Christian faith, emotions, and being an example in behavior. Through this research, it is hoped that all family members will be able to grow, develop, and act according to Christian teachings and faith, to get to know Jesus Christ better.
Pendidikan adalah usaha berkesinambungan untuk mengajar, mendidik, mendorong dan mengembangkan potensi anak. Pendidikan tak hanya dapat dilakukan di lingkungan sekolah, tapi juga di lingkungan keluarga. Dalam perspektif iman Kristen, pendidikan dimulai sejak dalam kandungan. Pendidikan semasa dalam kandungan (Pranatal) adalah pendidikan yang dilakukan oleh orang tua kepada anaknya, sebelum anak itu lahir. Hal itu merupakan tanda bahwa orang tua dengan matang mempersiapkan anak yang berkarakter kristiani, yang mampu bertumbuh dalam eksistensinya sebagai pemuda kristen. Mendidik anak dalam kandungan tujuan utamanya bukan agar anak memiliki kepandaian, melainkan menstimulasi anak memiliki potensi jasmani dan rohani yang siap dikembangkan di dunia nyata. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian studi kepustakaan kualitatif, yakni dengan meneliti berbagai sumber bacaan yang terkait dengan topik penelitian, ditemukan hasil penelitian bahwa Pendidikan Pranatal berorientasi dari Pendidikan Agama Kristen dalam keluarga yang secara tidak langsung  (indirect education) dimulai dari Ibu, dengan cara menjaga perilaku sesuai iman Kristen, emosi, serta menjadi teladan dalam berperilaku. Melalui penelitian ini, diharapkan semua anggota keluarga mampu bertumbuh, berkembang, dan bertingkah sesuai dengan ajaran dan iman Kristen, untuk semakin mengenal Yesus Kristus.
