Authors: David David , Luwinda Ferdinand Ariandy
Published: August 2017

Dual tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT) is widely used for representation of face image features. DTCWT is more frequently used than Gabor or Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) because it provides good directional selectivity in six different directions. Meanwhile, non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is also frequently used since it can reduce high dimensional feature into smaller one without losing important features. This research focused on comparison between DTCWT and NMF as feature extraction and Euclidean Distance for classification. This research used ORL Faces database. Experimental result showed that NMF provided better results than DTCWT did. NMF reached 92% of accuracy and DTCWT reached 78% of accuracy.

The development of the city is along with population growth in the city, from low density into a higher density. Along with the development of the population of the city that is denser, it is necessary to change the pattern of development, where the trend today is leading to the vertical development although increasing the density of the area is not an easy thing. This is because an increase in the density of the area must be balanced with an increase in facilities and adequate infrastructure. If it is not fulfilled then it will have a negative impact on the city or region. One of the necessary infrastructure for the development is transportation infrastructure since the development of a city will increase density therefore in turn it will generate the daily trip, both from the region and towards the region. In the field of urban design, the formula for the density limitation is set in the urban design guidelines that functions as the foundation for an architect to design the building. Urban design guidelines is mainly formulated in the numbers BCR, FAR, and the maximum height of buildings that will form the frame of the building mass. Therefore, this paper intends to explain the optimum modeling between the density of a region with the treshold of existing road infrastructure. With the modeling of the optimum, then the negative impacts can be reduced and the modeling results will get the maximum density that can be accommodated in an area.

Language as a Socio-Cultural Semiotic: A Case Study on the Fiction Text
Authors: Latjuba Ade Yolanda
Published: August 2017

This article was intended to prove that a language could reflect a socio-cultural situation at a certain period of a nation. The first step taken to achieve this end was choosing a text that had the appropriate register, in accordance with the purpose. The fictional text “Nocturne” was a register which was chosen as the object of research to prove that the language might reflect the socio-cultural situation of a particular period of a nation. This register had the potential of meaning, both visible and hidden. Meaning that appeared to come from the system of meaning that was owned by choice of words, phrases, and sentences. While the meaning that was not visible is the potential meaning that indirectly was stated in the text. The method of this article was interpreted by using a semiotic approach. These words were then associated with sentences in the text, which explained series of event or actions of the story’s figure. From here, it obtained the actual meaning of the text in question. And this article finds that the form of signs that potentially could have a meaning that is integrated into the text. Thus, by isolating the socio-cultural system that has the meaning potential in the text, the marker can easily be interpreted through the semiotic approach. The overall theme of the story can be interpreted two-fold: an overview of the concept of culture Bugis-Makassar Siri’ or impression of the situation calm.

Published: August 2017

Understanding the biological and molecular processes underlying human pathologies
is fundamental in order to develop innovative approaches to treat or prevent
them. Among the technologies that could provide innovative disease models, induced
pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) is one of the most promising. Indeed, one application of
this technology is patient-specific disease modeling. iPSCs obtained by reprogramming
patients’ cells collected from accessible tissues, have the unique capability to differentiate,
under an adequate stimulus, into any human cell type. In particular, iPSCs technology
can be applied to study drug adverse effects, that is a key part of the drug discovery process.
Indeed, drug induced adverse effects are among the most common causes that lead to
abandon the development of new candidate therapeutic molecules, increasing the cost of
drug discovery. An innovative strategy that could be used in drug design to solve drug attrition
rate, and to establish innovative pharmacological models, could be the application
of iPSCs technology in the early stage of the drug discovery process to model druginduced
adverse events. In this review, recently developed disease models based on iPSCs
will be discussed, with a particular focus on available models of drugs’ adverse effect, in
particular hepatic/pancreatic toxicity.

Concrete column structures damages due to flexural moment need to be repaired and strengthened to avoid of sudden failure by applying appropriate methods. The method applied in this study was retrofitting by applying polyester resin concrete. In order to know the effect of polyester resin concrete against axial load capacity, stiffness, ductility and the damage pattern of columns by eccentrically loaded, an experimental laboratory was carried out. In this study, three column specimens are tested. The dimension of the specimen is 150 mm x 150 mm and the high of the column are 1200 mm with the effective high is 600 mm and 600 mm for corbel. The column specimens have a fixed eccentricity of 50 mm. First, initial column tested before yield point of reinforcing bar reached and concrete crack limited to 0,4mm. Further, retrofitting applied to each initial column specimen using normal concrete and polyester resin concrete with the level of resin 15% and 20%, respectively. Retrofitting column tested again with the same loading of initial column until it reaches the collapse load. The result of experiment compares to analysis method by Nawy and Whitney which represent the analysis of normal concrete column capacity. The result showed that levels of resin to be used is 20% because of better workability compared to 15% resin. Further, compressive test on resin concrete cylinder showed that the resin level at 15% and 20% are 82.82 MPa and 76.65 MPa, respectively. The strength of KR-ii decreased about 33.523%. The strength of KR-15ii and KR-20ii increased 5.08% and 24.827% respectively compared to initial column. Specimen column stiffness KR-ii. KR-15ii and KR-20ii decreased about 76.22%, 24.50% and 37.65%, respectively from the initial column. Furthermore, ductility of KR-ii, KR-15ii and KR-20ii decreased about 1.512, 1.250 and 2.50, respectively. The changes of the ultimate capacity load of KR-ii, KR-15ii and KR-20ii by Nawy Method respectively -26.54%, 12.66%, and 13.83%, whereas the method of Whitney respectively -17.68%, 26.25%, and 27.56%. The use of polyester resin concrete can change the pattern of collapse from brittle to ductile columns.Keywords: retrofit, ductility, stiffness, flexural column, eccentricity

The cultivation of strawberry needs of technological innovation to gain competitive advantage strawberry fruit quality and quantity. This is motivated because the decline in the production of strawberries in the area and quality of strawberry fruit is still low. Since 2012 until now, Laboratory of Genetics has identified and developed the character of phenotype and genotype of strawberry plants in Agro Banyuroto, Village Banyuroto Sawangan District of Magelang regency. Character genotypes studied through the identification of ploidy with cytogenetic approach and apply poliploidisasi technology that aims to double the number of sets of chromosomes in order to obtain a plant that has the character of superior phenotype compared with the control. The purpose of this activity was to awaken the capacity of communities that were able to develop and utilize natural resources to meet human needs while maintaining the environmental implementing action plans that lead to sustainable development in a sustainable manner. The method was executed in this activity was the cultivation of strawberries by exploiting natural resources Banyuroto village environment that was using bamboo, strawberry cultivation techniques with vertikultur systems. Moreover, the carrying capacity was also supported by the promotion of village tourism as central region Banyuroto strawberry cultivation of strawberries superior to tourists every week, promotion through Online system (in the network) by utilizing Information Technology and Computing and community empowerment with the diversification of food made from strawberries. The end result of this activity was obtained hallmarks of crops polyploidy were plant growth faster, the ability of the formation of stolons and nursery faster, leaf area and stem diameter was wider, the stem stout and roots were longer, the fruit produced was greater and a sweeter taste with more red fruit color. Innovation strawberry crop is expected to be followed by the cultivation of sustainable optimal as possible so that the results obtained are able to improve the welfare of farmers in Banyuroto strawberries.

Mushroom farmer society Sedyo Lestari is located in the Argosari, Sedayu, Bantul. The high demand for mushrooms media (baglog) is a good business opportunities for this farmer society. But the process of baglog making requires a lot of energy in the form of firewood, especially for sterilization process of the baglog. On the other hand, the mushroom cultivation process itself remains the waste that can be used as fuel for the sterilization process. So far Sedyo Lestari farmer society members do not have the technology to used the mushroom cultivation waste as a fuel. Therefore, it is imperative to transfer knowledge of biomass briquetting technique. The method used in this activities are socialization, training, and mentoring by starting with the introduction of briquettes and briquetting technology. Subsequently made briquette-making machines followed by training briquette making. Mentoring and socialization were also made to all members of farmer society. Outcome of these activities was briquette-making machines that can be used by all members of the society as well as knowledge about the process of making briquettes. The benefit of using briquettes of mushroom cultivation media waste as fuel for subtitute the firewood can provide savings to the expenditures of farmers for buying firewood and solving the waste management problems for farmers.

This research focus on the discourse of Syiah that alleged to Mizan over the first publication of Dialog Sunni-Syiah which published at 1983. Despite of that negative justification, Mizan publisher still exist and productive, especially for producing pop-islamic fiction. By using Pierre Macherey’s literary production theory, spoken and unspoken, then found a ideological islamization project and also an anti-western effort in the other pop-islamic fiction by realizing it through figuration and symbol inside the text; hidayah, islam figure, moslem gathering, ideal by wearing hijab, Arabian’s figure domination, history of islamic resistance, and preferring middle east background. Therefore, unconsciously, pop-islamic fiction reducing the negative image of Mizan as pop-islamic publisher as well as showing the existence of islamic power. Mizan’s presence appears because of the enthusiasm of intellectuals to the islamic ideas books, especially about Islam Iran Revolution at 1979. By the sensitivity of the discourse in Orde Baru era, then Mizan publisher be a  part of negative image in islam. By the Mizan’s productivity producing pop books then the more the image faded, simultaneously awaken islamic power in Indonesia’s popular culture.Keywords: Pop-islamic fiction, Mizan Publisher, spoken and unspoken , silences
