Ozone that was generated by using dielectric barrier discharge plasma (DBDP) reactor has been investigated. In this study, we compared ozone production with reactor series and parallelled at atmospheric pressure. The reactor used models of a wire mesh - aluminum foil configuration. The first reactor uses a series circuit with two reactors and the second reactor uses a parallel circuit with two reactors. Ozone was produced by DBDP reactor using AC high Voltage. Oxygen that source of ozone has been taken from the pure oxygen and natural gas. Some analysis conducted including the variation of voltage, the flow rate of gas and type of source gas which affect produced concentration. Some parameters varied including voltage from 0 - 10 kV and the flow rate of gas 4 - 12 L / min. The results showed that ozone concentration in the series reactor is higher than that of the parallel reactor. The series reactor could produce ozone with a concentration of 348 ppm at a voltage of 10 kV. Then the parallel reactor of ozone could produce with a concentration of 240 ppm at a voltage of 10 kV. We found that series reactor could produce more high ozone concentration at the same voltage.

The use of chemical compounds in dyeing is still dominant. This results in the redundant use of water for the washing. Therefore, there needs to be a research on an alternative method. This research is aimed at understanding the effect of both positive and negative corona plasma irradiations on fabric. It is expected that characteristics of voltage, current, and electrode spacing, as well as ion mobility from the corona plasma will be known, both for with and without grey polyester knit fabric. Other than that, dampness characteristics of the grey polyester knit fabric will also be known. Plasma discharge is generated using point-plane electrode configuration connected to a high voltage DC power supply. The number of point electrodes is 100. Meanwhile, irradiation on the fabric is performed by putting the grey polyester knit on top of the plane electrode. Characterization was then carried out by varying the voltage, spacing of both point and plane electrodes, with and without the fabric. Other than that, variation was also made for the duration of grey polyester knit fabric irradiation. The next step was water drop test to observe 1 mL water absorption on the grey polyester knit. Results show that adding potential difference increases the current of corona spark plasma discharge for both positive and negative current corona discharges. The same case was also observed when the plasma discharge was irradiated on the plane electrode, either with or without the grey polyester knit fabric. The presence of grey polyester knit altered discharge mobility in that the small spacing of the fabric increases mobility for both negative and positive corona discharge. Hence, the further the electrodes spacing, the less mobile charge particles become. Results of water drop test show that longer irradiation on the fabric speeds up water absorption in the grey polyester knit fabric, both for positive and negative corona irradiations.

The increasing use of non-Newtonian fluids as lubricants has received much attention due to their high shear. The present study explores a lubrication mechanism in lubricated textured contact for mixed slip/no-slip pattern considering cavitation. The effect of texturing depth on the bearing performance is also investigated. The numerical method based on commercial CFD (computational fluid dynamic) software is carried out to analyze the tribological characteristics (i.e., hydrodynamic pressure distribution) of lubricated textured contact. To model slip, the enhanced user-defined-function (UDF) in the FLUENT® package is developed. The analysis results show that giving textures as well as a slip to one of the parallel sliding surfaces can generate significant hydrodynamic pressure to affect the load support. The increase in the load support is also indicated by increasing the streamline recirculating flow. Besides, numerical results suggest that cavitation modeling has a significant effect on performance. Ignoring cavitation leads to less accurate results.

Petrophysical analysis has been performed by evaluating log data that have been validated with core data using Geoframe 4.2 software. Using secondary log and core data which are located at depth of 1414 - 3820 ft, the research purpose is identifying reservoir characteristics of "X" field prospect zone. Sand A-Zone has permeability of 9.38% error curve and porosity curve error of 0.78%. In Sand B Zone permeability error of 52.32% curve and porosity error of 7.13%. In Sand C Zone permeability error of 198.8% curve and porosity error of 2.85%. In Sand D Zone permeability error of 61.54% curve and porosity error of 29.87%. In Sand E Zone permeability error of 54.73% curve and porosity error of 4.52%. There is no good correlation and error values that tend to be large because the lithology in Sand B and Sand C Zone has a tight range of lithology, so the reading of logging tool gives a fairly high error, especially in permeability data which still shows a decrease in error value after validated with core data. Quantitative analysis obtained by petrophysical parameter range from six zones porosity of 26 %, permeability of 2661 mD, and water saturation of 0.37 frac.

One of the spectroscopy method, which can determine constituent in material, is Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS). LIBS is an atomic emission method that uses radiation pulses from the high energy laser. LIBS allows the detection of spectral lines of elements present in the excited sample. In this present research, a pulse Nd: YAG laser with 1064 nm wavelength was used in LIBS system to the analysis of concrete elements. Spectrum analysis of calcium element in concrete was performed to understand the characteristics of generated laser plasma. Characteristics of laser plasma were shown through energy and pulse repetition rate laser variations. Using the higher energy laser, the larger plasma diameter was made. Furthermore, the graphs show increment in intensity and peaks, which have better sharpness. The laser repetition rate does not affect the size of the plasma, but the greater frequency of laser shots cause the lower emission intensity.

Analysis of sodium aerosol is very important in various field including nuclear power station, electronic industry, and medical field. In medical field, aerosol detection can be employed to earlier detection of disease based on liquid in human being. In this present work, aerosol sodium detection has been performed using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) utilizing pulse Nd:YAG laser. In the study, sodium aerosol made of sodium chloride (NaCl) liquid was deposited on a copper (Cu) metal plate. The Cu plate functions as a metal subtarget to initiate a plasma emission and to improve the emission intensity of sodium line. Experimentally, a pulse laser Nd YAG (1064 nm, 7 ns, dan 45 mJ) was focused on a sodium aerosol to induce a luminous plasma. The plasma was then sent into the spectrometer to obtain the emission spectrum of sodium. The observed sodium aerosol samples were made in five variations based on their various molarities (concentrations). Variations are made, ranging from 1 molar to 3 molar with the difference of each sample of 0.5 molar. Sharp Na lines at 588.9 nm and 589.3 nm, which overlap due to low resolution of spectrometer were clearly detected. The other lines coming from Cu subtarget occurs at 324.7 nm and 327.4 nm.

One of the MCNP applications is to determine the radiation dose distribution in the brachytherapy process. In this research performed the calculation of the distribution of radiation doses in the lung organ and some organs at risk, so it can be known whether the doses received by the surrounding organs are still within normal limits or not. The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) recommends that the doses administered in patient radiotherapy have inaccuracies that are allowed to be within the range of ± 5 %. This simulation is used to determine the energy of γ-radiation absorbed per particle transformation in the lung organ and other organs around it. The radioactive source used is 131Cs in the form of points with activity varying from 1.7 mCi to 2.3 mCi, and the number of seeds grown varies from 10 to 60. The simulation of the geometry of the human body is made up of phantom ORNL-MIRD. This research made left lung geometry as target organ with density 0,296 g / cm3 and located at a Cartesian coordinate position that is (8,5; 0; 43,5). From the absorbed dose can be calculated dose distribution on each organ including the target organ and the surrounding organ. If the target organ is considered to receive a dose of 100%, then the surrounding organs are left an atrial wall of 59.58%, left atrium content of 14.32%, left a ventricular wall of 11.62%, left the ventricular content of 15.5 % and right lung by 0.17%. From the results of the dose distribution can be said that the organs that exist around the target organs are still safe because receiving a radiation dose is still below 60%.

The aims of this study were to investigate the noise reduction in a CT image using a modified Wiener filtering-edge detection method. We modified the noise reduction algorithm of a combination of the Wiener filter and edge detection by addition of a dilation stage after edge detection. We then evaluated kernel size of the Wiener filter, threshold values in the edge detection, and size of structuring elements in the dilation process. Images of adult anthropomorphic and self-built wire phantoms were acquired by the new 4-row multislice CT Toshiba Alexion™. The images of the anthropomorphic phantom were used for a visual evaluation, while the images of the wire-phantom were used to obtain the spatial resolution and noise of the images. A Wiener filter-edge detection filter coupled with dilation, potentially reduced more CT noise. We found that the spatial resolution and noise of the filtered images were influenced by the size of the Wiener filter kernel, threshold of edge detection, and size of structuring element.

ZnO semiconductor is one of the photocatalyst materials that has become a concern in the world of research. This is due to its ability to degrade pollutants effectively, economically and environmentally friendly. Many studies have been developed to enhance the photocatalytic activity of ZnO, one of them by the addition of doping. Increasing the concentration of non-metallic doping on ZnO will affect its energy level so that it can improve the physical properties and optical properties. Nitrogen has been considered as a very good dopant because it has an ionic radius comparable to oxygen and also has small ionization energy. High nitrogen-doped ZnO thin films have been deposited by sol-gel spray coating methods on glass substrate. Using spectrophotometer UV-Vis Materials were characterized to obtain the absorbance spectrum, in order to analyze its optical absorption region. The result shows that all materials have high absorption in the UV region. In general, the graph shows that the absorption spectra in the UV region increase with increasing percentage of dopant and have maximum absorption spectra on the sample with 40% dopant. It indicates that high N-doping enhanced the light absorption capacity of ZnO.

Ion wind drying also called corona wind drying in this study using a pin-multi ring concentric electrode. The purpose of the research is to determine the velocity of the ion wind by the characteristic of the method (MOC) and to apply it for drying the black turmeric (Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb). In theory, the ion wind velocity is equal to the ion mobility multiplied by the electric field. In MOC, the ion mobility is obtained from the graph of the relationship between the electric corona discharge current and the applied high voltage. The ion wind produced by corona discharge has been drying of the black turmeric slices with an applied high voltage 4 kV, the gap electrode 6 mm and drying time 0-30 minutes with a 5 minute time interval. Sliced black turmeric was circle formed with a radius of 15 mm and a thickness of 2-8 mm with an interval of 2 mm thickness. According to the results obtained, a constant of comparing the ion wind velocity with the MOC.. Its value is around 102 which is hypotheses of the value of the relative permittivity the ion wind. The drying rate maximum of the black turmeric (Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb) slices occurs at the beginning of drying is after a 5 minute drying time. This characteristic for all the variations of the samples radius. This causes the moisture content of the black turmeric slices to drop drastically.

Testing the quality of cooking oil is very important, especially to ensure the quality and identification of other unexpected mixture of cooking oil. In this paper, the fluorescence polarisation method will be used to test the presence of lard contamination on cooking oil. Fluorescence polarization is similar to fluorescence intensity, in that it is based on the emission of light by an excited fluorophore. However, samples are excited by polarized light which is selected by specific polarizing filters. The angle of linearly polarized incoming light was adjusted by using a polarizer. The change of fluorescent polarization angle was measured by using a second polarizer (analyzer) to obtain a relation between θ-value and φ-value for all samples. The samples were various edible oils, i.e., chicken oil, lard, and canola oil. The test is carried out by measuring the change in the average polarization angle of the fluorescent light to the polarizing angle of each incoming light over the sample directly. The results of the critical angle showed that all three samples were characteristic. Chicken oil has φc = 20° with θAv = 11.28° to 13.63°, lard has φc = 40° with θAv = 7.13° to 9.51°, whereas canola oil has φc = 30° with θAv = 2.59°. These results show that the fluorescence polarization method has a good prospect for oil contamination test on cooking oil.

Until the next following decades, energy mixed in Indonesia will be dominated by coal. Many studies assert that biomass can be used as coal substitution but it is not the case in the real world because the cost of biomass is still higher than the coal price. This study proposes the cheaper way of making biomass by using special method of local waste processing unit that has a patented name, TOSS. This kind of biomass, which was invented by STT PLN Jakarta, school of technology, is more economical than other biomass because waste as raw materials is much cheaper than other commonly used biomass like wooden forestry or agroplantations. Many cities in the world are solving their municipal waste problem by using large scale and high tech approach, which process is conducted in the landfill area. TOSS is using small scale and simple technology that can convert waste to become pellet by local people in its source. The pilot project at Klungkung showed that the pellet of TOSS can be used not only for cooking but also for diesel fuel substitution. This study will use that finding to show that TOSS pellet can also reduce coal consumption by mixing it with normal coal. The simulation is conducted by calculating the equivalent energy and capacity of waste energy from TOSS in term of coal equivalent under the context of Indonesia.

In this paper we studied contribution of electro-optics effect for evaluation of canola oil quality using transmission and fluorescence polarization. The samples were two different quality of canola oils, i.e. edible canola and expired canola based on the date of expiration at the time of measurement. The physical variable of polarization angle was measured using a pair of polarizers from a 532 nm of green pointer laser. The electro-optics effect was produced by applying high DC voltage 0-9 kV on samples. The result shows that the change of polarization angle of expired oil is greater than the good one for both transmission and fluorescence. The increasing polarization angle is accompanied by increasing saturated FAs and decreasing polyunsaturated FAs simultaneously, in agreement with our previous reports.The fluorescence polarization is dependent on the polarizer's angle of incoming light and has average angle greater than transmission light. The electro-optic fluorescence is twice as electro-optics transmission due to possibly coupling between pure scattering and fluorescence together, in which large size of TG molecules play an important role into the light scattering and fluorescence perpendicular to the incoming light.This fluorescence light method provides more accurate measurement that transmission light and seems powerful comparison to the other spectroscopy methods.

Generally, personal identification system is still done by conventional techniques, such as using ID cards, passwords or PIN numbers. These systems is easily lost, damaged or forgotten. In this paper we present a new method for identifying a person with a biometric based on palm of the hand. This system does not require a peg like an identification system based on existing hand geometry. Phase of development are: first, the palm image scanned in the RGB format is converted into a gray level. Then the image is converted to binary by giving the correct threshold value. From the binary image, we carry out the edge detection process to get the contour perimeter of the palm. From the contour perimeter of the palm, we measure the length of 8 edges contour perimeter of the fingers i.e. the right edge of the thumb, the left edge of the index finger, the right edge of the index finger, the left edge of middle finger, the right edge of middle finger, the left edge of pinkie, the right edge of pinkie, and the left edge of ring finger. The identification process is performed by minimum distance, which is the smallest euclidean distance value associated with the test image and database. The experimental results giving good performance with a success of up to 90%.

A fractal is a geometric figure that combines the several characteristics among others: its parts have the same form as the whole, fragmented, and formation by iteration. The concept of fractals has been spread over all fields of sciences, technology, and art. The properties of fractal sets are necessary to be investigated and favorable for the practical applications. This paper aims to provide an algorithm for creating multicolor symmetrical fractal pattern generator. Generator algorithm consists of base, iteration, coloration, and duplication. To help the reader better understand the algorithm, we will present some script using Matlab. We describe a mathematically based algorithm that can fill a spatial region with a sequence of randomly placed which may be transformed copies of one motif or several motifs. This flexible algorithm can be used to produce a variety of aesthetically pleasing fractal patterns, of which we show some examples. We hope that the existence of fractals can show that mathematics is not a dry and flat subject, but it is a beautiful subject and can produce works that have a high degree of art and intellectual value.

One of the renewable alternative energy and has the potential to be developed is biogas energy. However, in its development there are still some obstacles, one of which is leakage on digester. This leakage is caused by excess gas pressure inside the digester, so the excess gas that should be used is wasted. In addition leaks on the digester can also cause air pollution and global warming. It is therefore necessary to design an effective by adding a controller as a pressure regulator of the biogas flow distribution. The MPX5700AP pressure sensor is installed to measure the pressure of the gas inside the digester. Excess gas in the next digester is flowed and accommodated in the container tube. Based on the research that has been done, can be produced an effective digester. With the automatic pressure control, the biogas distribution process becomes more optimal so as to minimize the exhaust gas from the digester.

Rapid growth in environmental awareness raised the strict regulations on air pollution control and led to great developments in air filtration or cleaning technologies. The membrane is one of the promising technologies for air filtration due to its high efficiency, low cost, and easy to scale-up. Two types of air filtration membranes have been used to provide high efficiencies in contaminant removal, namely electro-spun fibrous and microporous polymeric membranes. The fibrous membranes composed of randomly oriented fibers, either micro-or nano-fiber, and have been widely used to remove fine particles, such as aerosols. Meanwhile, the microporous membranes have a pore size that can remove both particulate and molecular, such as toxic gases. This paper reviews the role of membrane technologies in air pollution control. The performances of the membranes are presented comprehensively. Besides, the developments of the membranes to improve the filtration efficiency and reduce air-flow resistance are also discussed.

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease; it caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this paper, we discuss how to use the Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion to analyze the stability of disease free of the tuberculosis transmission model. From this method, can be found the number of roots of the characteristic polynomial (eigenvalues) with positive real parts is equal to the number of changes in sign of the first column of the Routh array. If all of the eigenvalues are negative, then the model is stable. While the bifurcation method is used to analyze the stability of the endemic equilibrium point of the tuberculosis transmission, the endemic equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable if reproduction number greater than one and additional parameters requirement that bifurcation met. Finally, numerical simulations are demonstrated to verify the used method.

Influenza Virus is an infectious disease caused by the Orthomyxoviridae virus. This paper discussed mathematical modeling that explains the model of the influenza virus transmission with SEIR model, where S is susceptible, E is exposed, I is infected, and R is recovered. Basic reproduction numbers (R0) are used to analyze the stability of the model. When R0 less than 1 the virus free equilibrium is stable asymptotically local, while when R0 greater than 1 the endemic equilibrium is stable asymptotically local. From the numerical simulation results based on data from Pekalongan, Indonesia, it's found that reproduction number is equal to 0,03492209390.This indicates that the virus free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable and the endemic equilibrium is not locally asymptotically stable, so that there is no virus transmission in Pekalongan.

In medicine study, one of the things that is interesting enough to be studied is "time-to-event". In general, time-to-event is used in doing survival analysis, such as analysis of Parkinson disease. Parkinson disease is one of the diseases which affects dopamine producer in brain area that is called by substantia nigra. The symptom of Parkinson disease is measured specifically by stages that are called by Hoehn and Yahr stages. This stages are distributed on integers between 0 to 5 with stage 0 is stage that does not have big impact and stage 5 is the most severe level. In this study, the survival function will be constructed from the time that the patient has the Hoehn and Yahr stages at A until increase to stage B with A < B. With A = 1, 2 and B = 3, 4, 5, overall it will be estimated six graphs of survival function. The process of construction survival function is using the Independent Metropolis-Hastings algorithm in Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods on Bayesian Inference with uniform proposal distribution and the results are compared with Kaplan-Meier estimator for survival function. The result that is obtained through this algorithm is more represents the actual survival function if it is compared with Kaplan-Meier estimator, although there are so many censored data in the dataset.

Land-use management is the key parameter in developing an agropolitan area. The Spatial Plan of Pati District 2010-2030 contains plans for the Gembong Subdistrict to be developed into an agropolitan area. The Gembong Reservoir is one of the reservoirs in the region that has a vital role in supporting the area development. The main problem in managing the Gembong reservoir is the decreasing availability of reservoir water. Increased sedimentation affects the availability of reservoir water, which is used as a supply of irrigation areas. Management of water availability must be based on optimization analysis, because the volume of storage is limited and increasing inflow to the reservoir to increase the water level requires a long time. Therefore, the optimization model of reservoir water management is urgent to be formulated, so that the reservoir operator can be utilized to determine the allocation of supplementary water. This article presents a study of the results of observations in the field and secondary data, as well as reviews of related scientific articles, to be able to identify potential environmental stresses on reservoir water availability and its management.

A temporal point process is a one-dimensional point process where events are observed by time. A temporal point process can be viewed as a renewal process with time between events as random variables. The conditional intensity function of the process represents the expected rate dependent on time between events so that we can predict earthquakes activities. This research will be discussed about parameters estimation of conditional intensity function using Bayesian method and be applied to earthquake data in East Nusa Tenggara (ENT) from January 2015 to April 2018. The ENT is categorized as earthquake prone, because it is flanked by two zones of earthquakes. In southern region there are the Eurasian and Indo-Australian plates sub ducted, and in the north there is a back arc thrust. Based on the research results, it was obtained the conditional intensity estimation. The application of conditional intensity estimation represents the expected rate of earthquake occurrence in East Nusa Tenggara at a certain time interval. The time intervals are in units of days. The greatest conditional intensity is at the time interval (day 1096th to 11897th) that is 0.058798617. It means that the probability earthquake occurrence in East Nusa Tenggara at that time period is very low with the total number of occurrences are 28 earthquakes.

Given a graph G(V, E) with a non-empty set V of vertices and a set E of edges. A total labelling λ: V ∪ E → { 1, 2,. . ., k} is called an edge irregular total labelling if the weight of every edge is distinct. The weight of an edge e, under the total labelling λ, is the sum of label of edge e and all labels of vertices that are incident to e. In other words, wt(xy) = λ(xy) + λ(x) + λ(y). The total edge irregularity strength of G, denoted by tes(G) is the minimum k used to label graph G with the edge irregular total labelling. In this paper, authors investigate the total edge irregularity strength of Dove tail graph with n pendant vertices ${D}_{n}^{n}$, and the subdivision of ${D}_{n}^{n}$ which is denoted as ${{SD}}_{n}^{n}$. The results of this research are $tes({D}_{n}^{n})=\lceil \frac{3n+1}{3}\rceil $ and $tes({{SD}}_{n}^{n})=\lceil \frac{6n}{3}\rceil $.

In a ring with involution we already know that the Moore Penrose inverse can be used to construct the properties of normal elements. By using the fact that the group inverse of an element in a ring will be commutative with element which is commutative with that element, this paper explains that the generalization of Moore Penrose inverse can be also to establish some properties of normal elements in a ring with an involution. Some elements in the ring such as symmetric, EP, partial isometries, etc are also can be expressed in group inverse. So the results of this paper much be required for built the properties of those elements.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease prevented by the vaccination of Bacillus Calmette-Geurin (BCG). The sufferer is treated by giving the Directly Observed Treatment Shortcourse (DOTS). The patients sometimes do not take the medicine regularly so that the TB-bacteria do not completely vanish from their body. The bacteria only weaken so the patients can be re-infected (relapse). Mathematical modelling can be used to determine TB transmission based on changes in the number of TB patients. By concerning vaccination and relapse factors, a susceptible vaccinated infected recovered (SVIR) model with relapse in TB transmission need to be developed. Indonesia got the second rank in the new case of TB in the world. In the national program of TB prevention, Indonesia has three indicators i.e. prevalence, incidence, and mortality rate. In this article, we derive SVIR model with relapse in TB transmission, then apply the model in Indonesia and measure its accuracy. Furthermore, we also predict the three indicators of TB in Indonesia. The model is nonlinear first-order differential equations. The model is applied in Indonesia by estimating parameters based on 2004-2014 data. Model accuracy is measured based on relative errors in 2015 and 2016. Absolute values of relative error S, V, I, R, and TB incidence are less than 0.1. Thus, the model is said to be quite accurate and can be used to predict the prevalence, incidence, and mortality rates of TB in Indonesia. The prediction of these three indicators shows a decline year by year with an average decrease of 1.90% for prevalence and mortality rates and 1.68% for incidence rates.

In general, the logarithmic returns of asset prices are not normally distributed. Brownian motion and normal distribution have been widely used in the Black-Scholes-Merton bond framework to model the return of assets. Merton has provided a formula for the valuation of a zero coupon bond where the asset price process contains a continuous Poisson jump component, in addition to a continuous log-normally distributed component. This paper applies jump diffusion processes to derive some bond parameters, these are equity and default probability, when the asset prices have extreme values.

The power of Feed Foward Neural Network (FFNN) in conjungtion with Genetic Algorithm (GA) was applied in this research to predict daily stock price. Finance time series data has a high complexity, so that the acurate prediction is hard to be gained by standard model. Machine learning becomes the new prediction tool which is often used because of its adaptive properties. Neural Network (NN) is one of the machine learning which able to complete inference tasks such as prediction, especially in large data sets. FFNN is one of the NN models that has simple network architecture. In the standard optimization method, the initial weights is randomly selected to desire the optimum solution. But It usually raises the problem of unsteady estimation. The GA optimization method was applied in this research to overcome this lack. GA optimizes any function effectively and seeks a global optimum solution efficiently. GA implementation on the FFNN was aimed to obtain optimum weights that minimizing the error. The daily stock price prediction of PT. Adhi Karya Tbk had RMSE of training and testing data at 51.2531 and 44.8706 respectively. This result was equivalent with MAPE values at 1.5714% and 1.5501%.

The income distribution model has provided an important aspect of economic inequality analysis. The determination of income inequality can be assisted by modeling a probability distribution of income which can be modeled by both parametric and nonparametric method. In the parametric perspective, the finite mixture distributions can perform a data-driven capability to model this income pattern of distributions which have particularly long-tailed, right-skewed and multimodal characteristics. The gamma distribution which has been widely used for estimating income distribution is used to develop the finite gamma mixture model which means the gamma distribution in each mixture component of the model. Bayesian approach pairs up with the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) which has a valid inference without depending on normality asymptotic condition is used to estimate this finite mixture model. In this paper, the household income which was constructed based on the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 2014-2015 data was utilized to show the work of the Bayesian inference performance through MCMC algorithm in estimating the parameter of the finite gamma mixture model. The goodness-of-fit comparisons of proposed finite gamma mixture models were made based on the widely applicable information criteria (WAIC).

Value at Risk (VaR) is a method to estimate the worst risk of an investment. The stock data is one of the financial time series data which often has high volatility which causes inconstant residual variance. The combination between several stocks in the portfolio makes the assumption of residual normality of the joint distribution model difficult to fulfill. The previous research on VaR by Sofiana in 2011 [3] and Hermansyah in 2017 [4] found that VaR value was reliable only for the data fulfilling normality assumption. Therefore, it is necessary to estimate VaR without ignoring the presence of heteroscedasticity and unfulfilled residual normality of the joint distribution model. This research aims to measure the VaR using Frank Copula-GARCH method with stock return data of BBRI, TLKM and UNVR for the period of 20 October 2014 to 28 February 2018. The research found that a pair of bivariate portfolio was TLKM and UNVR because they had the highest residual correlation value of Rho Spearman of ρ = 0.3204. Based on the data generation obtained using Monte Carlo simulation, the results of the VaR were -0.027883; -0.01886425; -0.01403 with confidence level at 99%, 95%, and 90% respectively.

Red onion is one of the strategic horticulture commodities in Indonesia considering its function as the main ingredients of the basic ingredients of Indonesian food. For increasing production to supply national necessary, Central Java as the main center of red onion production should be able to predict the production of several periods to maintain the balance of national production. The purpose of this research is to get the best model to forecast the production of red onion in Central Java by ARIMA, ANFIS, and hybrid ARIMA-ANFIS method. The smallest RMSE and AIC values measure model accuracy. The results show that the best model for modeling red onion production in Central Java is obtained by hybrid ARIMA - ANFIS model which is a combination between SARIMA ([2], 1, [12]) and residual ARIMA using ANFIS model with input et,1, et,2 on the grid partition technique, gbell membership function, and membership number of 2 that produce RMSE 12033 and AIC 21.6634. While ARIMA model yield RMSE 13301,24 and AIC 21,89807 with violation of assumption. And the ANFIS model produces RMSE 14832 and AIC 22,0777. It shows that ARIMA-ANFIS hybrid method is better than ARIMA and ANFIS.

The existence of skewness and kurtosis in finance data distribution is as a generalization of the normal density. Non-normal skewness and kurtosis of underlying asset of bond issuer significantly contribute to the phenomenon of volatility smile. Merton jump diffusion model is one of the first beyond Black-Scholes model in the sense that it tries to capture the effect of skewness and kurtosis of the asset prices density by a simple addition of a compound Poisson jump process. Another approach to consider the effect of skewness and kurtosis in asset prices for bond valuation is the Gram-Charlier (G-C) expansion. Hermite polynomial is used to get an expansion of the probability distribution in G-C method. In this paper we compare Merton Jump Diffusion (MJD) Model and G-C model in the term of equity and default probability. The result showed that G-C model is more consistent than MJD model when the skewness and kurtosis are taken into account.

The currency crisis that occurred in the middle of 1997, 1998 and 4th quarter of 2008 was caused by disturbances in the currency system. When there is disturbance in the system then the cause indicators will experience fluctuations and changes in conditions. High fluctuation can be modeled using volatility model, while the changes in condition can be modeled using Markov switching model. Therefore, combination of volatility and Markov switching models is very appropriate to explain the crisis. In this paper, we use real output and ICI indicators on the period of January 1990 until December 2016 to explain the crisis as well as to forecast the possibility of an impending crisis. The results show that the appropriate model is ARCH (1) and Markov switching with 3 states, called SWARCH (3,1) model. This model can catch the crisis that happened in 1998 and 1999 for real output indicator. Meanwhile ICI indicator can explain the crisis in August to December 1997, 1998 and September to December 2008. Based on SWARCH (3,1) model, it can be predicted that Indonesia does not experience currency crisis in one year later.

The aim of this research is to develop the procedure of constructing an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) model for time series data. The procedure of development applies statistical inference for optimizing ANFIS architecture. In this study, the procedure of Lagrange multiplier (LM) test is used for selecting input variables. Firstly, several lags which are indicated significantly different to zero are divided into 2 clusters, and these lags are selected as optimal inputs of ANFIS based on LM test. Secondly, the cluster numbers of inputs are also determined by using LM-test procedure. Based on this result, a number of rule-bases are generated. The developed model is applied for forecasting paddy production data in Central Java. This study concluded that lag-1, lag-2 and lag-5 with 2 clusters are selected as the optimal inputs. The 1-1 and 2-2 rules are selected as optimal rules. Finally, the model can work well, and generates a very satisfying result in forecasting paddy production data. Based on the root mean squares error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) values, the ANFIS performance is better than performance of Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) for forecasting.

In financial investment, investors will try to minimize risk and increase returns for portfolio formation. One method of forming an optimal portfolio is the Markowitz method. This method can reduce the risk and increase returns. The performance portfolio is measured using the Sharpe index. Value at Risk (VaR) is an estimate of the maximum loss that will be experienced in a certain time period and confidence level. The characteristics of financial data are the extreme values that are alleged to have a heavy tail and cause financial risk to be very large. The existence of extreme values can be model Generalized Extreme Value (GEV). This study uses company stock data of The IDX Top Ten Blue 2017 which forms an optimal portfolio that is a combination of TLKM and BMRI shares with the expected return rate of 0.0111 and a standard deviation of 0.01057. Portfolio performance measured by the Sharpe index is 1.6190 indicating the return obtained from investing in the portfolio above the average risk-free investment return rate of -0.01010. Risk calculation is obtained based on Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) if you invest both of these stocks with a 95% confidence level is 0.206 or 2.06% of the current assets.

The study of the effects of exchange rate volatility has still attracted the attention among economist, especially international economist. Because, if the exchange rate is unpredictable, it makes uncertainty about the profits to be gained, so this conditions may diminish the gain from international trade. In addition, some empirical literature provides various findings, where the exchange rate volatility has a positive effect on exports and can also negatively effect on exports. This paper wants to provide empirical evidence on both of these. It uses panel data involving five ASEAN countries with a period of 2000 – 2016. We also apply some analysis in panel data, such as the pooled least squares method, the fixed effect method, and the random effect method. The findings show that the exchange rate volatility has negative impact on exports. This paper suggests that each of central bank should pursue sustainable and stable exchange rate policy measures to promote greater exchange rate stability that would help to enhance the real exports of the economy.

Gold investment has some benefits, it's not only safe in value but also easily stored, durable, and the rate of return is relatively stable even several years tends to rise. Gold prices give us positive and negative side depending on the different event. To managing the negative side of holding gold, the investor has to measure the risk of gold at a given period. The most popular measurement of gold investment risk is Value at Risk (VaR). Determination of inappropriate methods will make VaR calculations inaccurate. The gold's price from year to year is suspected to have fat tail distributed (heavy tail), the Extreme Value Theory (EVT) is considered as precise methods to find VaR. In this study, the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) approach used in EVT estimated. GEV distribution identifies extreme values based on the maximum value of each block. Test results show that monthly block usage yield VaR value is more accurate than 0,899%. It means that for one coming period with a 95% confidence level the maximum loss that investors may experience is 0.899% of the total investment.

Theoretically, the movement of the Composite Stock Price Index (CSPI) is in line with the company's stock price movements. Hence, it would be appropriate to measure the CSPI contribution to the company's stock price regarding modeling the company's stock price. 2-dimensional Geometric Brownian Motion is believed to be the most appropriate model in this case. Therefore, this paper aims to project the share price of PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia in 2018 by considering the CSPI movement. The resulted mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) calculations lead to a conclusion that Prediction with 2-dimensional Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM) is more accurate than the individual modeling of stock prices of PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia. PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia Tbk's stock price modeling is more appropriately-used by taking heed on the movement of the Composite Stock Price Index. It is conclusive that the two dimensional geometric Brownian motion model provides an accurate prediction of PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia Tbk shares with MAPE is 1.980296%.

The risks faced in agriculture might be in production and marketing of agricultural products. This research aims to estimate the risk value in agricultural commodity – particularly dried shelled corn. Data used was the monthly data of the price of producers in Grobogan in period of November 2015 to July 2018. The data showed the return with the normally undistributed value of skewness and kurtosis. For this, the method of Cornish-Fisher was used in this research to measure the VaR in return that was normally undistributed. At the confidence level of 95%, with the initial capital of 1 million Rupiah, the risk that probably occurred in the following month (1 period) was by Rp 369,173.40 without considering the skewness and kurtosis, and by Rp 22,439.13 by considering skewness and kurtosis. The result of the research showed that, for the return that was normally undistributed, the level of risk obtained from the measurement of VaR by concerning skewness and kurtosis was found more accurate compared to the one without considering the skewness and kurtosis.

Gini ratio is an indicator to measure income inequality. Gini ratio of Indonesia in 2017 is 0.391, still far from Gini ratio target by Bappenas in 2019, that is 0.36. The Gini ratio modeling in this study uses a nonparametric regression approach because the form of the regression curve between the Gini ratio and its predictive variables is unknown. One of the estimators in nonparametric regression is spline truncated. Spline truncated has a knot that adjusts to the local characteristics of a function or data more effectively. The number of knots and their location affect the form of regression curve estimation, so it's important to obtain optimal knot. There are methods for selecting optimal knots, such as Generalized Cross Validation (GCV) and Unbiased Risk (UBR). This study compares GCV and UBR in selecting optimal knots on Gini Ratio data in Indonesia 2017. The criteria of the best model are based on Mean Squared Error (MSE) and R2 values. From the result, the optimal knot from GCV was a combination of 3-2-2-3 knot with MSE of 0.00085 and R2 of 79.18%. Meanwhile, by using UBR, the optimal knot is three knots with MSE of 0.00095 and R2 of 66.42%. In conclusion, GCV generated better model than UBR.

The condition of capture fisheries is currently stagnating, even tended to decline, which is indicated by the decrease of production in some fishery development areas in Indonesia. Aquaculture is one solution that can be done. Central Java Province is a province that has a large aquaculture potential, therefore of course Central Java province has leading commodities that become the sector of regional economic development. This research discusses about the potential location for the development of each leading commodities in Central Java Province as a recommendation related to the center of fisheries production. Analytical methods in this research are Location Quotient (LQ) and Shift share. It used to see how big these locations have a potential in the development of aquaculture production and to identify spatial autocorrelation in the amount of aquaculture production using Moran's index. The analysis of LQ and shift share shows that each district has a different potential in the development of leading commodities production. The value of the Moran's index obtained equal to -0.1381, that is in the range of -1 < I ≤ 0, indicating that the presence of spatial autocorrelation is negative but small because of near to zero. It can be concluded that there is no similarity of the values between the districts or indicate that amount of aquaculture production among the districts in Central Java is not correlated.

Diarrhea is one of many health issues in the developing country like Indonesia because the sickness and the death number are still high. According to the health profile of Semarang City, the people who suffer from diarrhea from 2010-2015 are decreasing. The lowest point happened in the year 2013 with the total case of 38.001. However, there is an increasing number from 2014-2015. The distribution data of diarrhea is spatial data. The differences between environment and sanitation could cause spatial heterogeneity. The spatial heterogeneity could cause the produced variant value no longer constant, but instead, it is different in each region. Therefore, the regression model that involves the effects of spatial heterogeneity is needed, which are Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) that is built by Weighted Least Square (WLS) adjuster. Although, GWR parameter adjuster that used WLS is very sensitive with the existence of outliers. The existence of the outlier in the data will create a vast residual. Thus, a more robust method is needed, which is the Least Absolute Deviation (LAD) methods in order to estimate the parameter on model GWR. This model is called Robust GWR (RGWR). The result shows that the model events of diarrhea on each region in Semarang City are different. Furthermore, the model events of diarrhea with the RGWR model generate MAPE 16.3396% which means the performance of RGWR is formed well.

Neural network modelling has become a great interest for many statisticians to be utilized in various types of data as classification, regression, and time series. It also has been applied in many fields as environment, financial, medical, agriculture and climate change. A lot of parametric methods have been developed to predict time series data such as ARIMA and exponential smoothing. However, requirement of residual assumptions causes limitedness of the models. Time series prediction by using neural network been an interesting study in the forecasting problem. In this model, one of the most interesting discussion is about how to get the optimal weights. Various gradient and non-gradient based methods have been applied in obtaining the network weights. Particle swarm optimization is one non-gradient based algorithm inspired by the behaviour of birds and fish flocks, which move to form certain formations without colliding to get the best position in a multi-dimensional space. In neural network modelling, the number of input and hidden unit give influence to the network architecture. The more complex an architecture, the more network weights must be estimated. In this study, a comparison of particle swarm optimization and some gradient based methods on the optimizing neural network was studied. Comparative studies were performed on both stationary and non-stationary data. Experiments were conducted several times to obtain optimal accuracy and stability of results, through statistics of mean and variance of MSE values.

Spatial relationship models often use dependence relationships into covariance structures through the autoregressive model. The autoregressive process is shown through the dependence relationship between a set of observations or a location from now on called the dependent spatial model. The Spatial dependent model is divided into two categories: spatial lag and spatial error. The spatial lag regression model is a model that considers dependent variables on an area with other areas associated with it, and the spatial error regression model is a model that takes into account the dependency of error values of an area with errors in other areas associated with it. Models with both dependencies are expressed as spatial autoregressive models with a spatial autoregressive error term (SAR-SAR). These dependencies resulted in the estimation of parameters by the ordinary least square method (OLS) resulting in inconsistent estimators. Therefore a special estimation method is required which results in a consistent estimate of the generalized spatial two-stage least square (GS2SLS). In this paper, we review the parameter estimation of SAR-SAR model with GS2SLS. To complete this paper, we also applicate of SAR-SAR model in dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) case in Surakarta, Central Java.

Regression analysis is an analysis in statistics for modeling the relationship between predictor variables and response variable. Regression analysis can be performed by two approaches; parametric and non-parametric models. Some commonly used estimators of nonparametric approaches are spline, local polynomial, kernel, wavelet, and Fourier. Fourier nonparametric regression is a regression based on Fourier series with cosine and sinus patterns. Regression analysis can be explored, not only for cross section data but also for longitudinal data. Longitudinal data is an observed data of some uncorrelated subjects, and each subject was observed for some periods. This research developed a nonparametric regression approach for longitudinal data by using Fourier series. One of the advantages of Fourier series is it combines additive that is able to overcome the data with recurrent and high fluctuations. The research use data with 3 subjects and 128 observations. The Fourier model by combining additive linear functions and cosine functions is more suitable for modeling repeated data that has an element of trend, as the 2nd sector.

Hotels are one of the supporting facilities for tourism in Indonesia. The development of hotels is an essential part of the tourism sector. Hotel development can be performed by knowing public opinion obtained from user reviews. However, direct comment analysis, by reading reviews one by one, becomes difficult due to the vast numbers involved. This problem can be overcome by implementing sentiment analysis. In practice, sentiment analysis has critical issues that can affect performance, i.e., several words have different meanings in different sentence contexts, and the existence of the negation words can invert the meaning of an entire text. Therefore, this research proposes the implementation of negation handling techniques using modified syntactic rules in Naive Bayes based sentiment analysis. The proposed modified syntactic rules of negation handling techniques have been shown to improve sentiment analysis performance by 3.3%; compared to sentiment analysis without negation handling.

One strategy in using the Learning Management System (LMS) is to provide activities that can be accessed by students as learning material. The problem is that the teacher cannot see the students' online activity directly. In this study, the students' behavior was discovered from the e-learning log file on the quiz activity. Quis activities are performed six times and end with a final exam. Four attributes were proposed as the student behavior model, they are the frequency of repeating quiz work (freq), the duration on each quiz work (our), increased score when repeating the quiz (perf), and the best score of all attempts (best). The preferable clustering result using K-means algorithm was obtained with 2 (two) clusters. Each cluster was paired with the final exam score which shows that the percentage of failures in cluster_0 is 85%. This result corresponds to the centroid value in cluster_0 that is lower in all attributes compare to the cluster_1. It concludes to evidence that the activity of working on online quizzes has a relation with the final exam score. This information can be used for early intervention by the teacher to prevent the student from failing.

According to National Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries survey conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistic in 2015, there were 4836 workers killed on construction sites due to illness and fatalities, 9% injuries were due to the exposure to the hazardous environment. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is one of the technologies used to access information from the environment and sent to the computer for analysis, thus reducing exposure to the hazardous environment. However, the state of danger is not yet known to the worker directly. Fortunately a mobile application can overcome this problem by receiving notification from the sensor device. In this paper, we propose a mobile application that can receive notification from the sensor device. We design our application to communicate to the sensor device that connected to the server. Our application can receive notification if there is an alteration from sensor data such as change of normal status to dangerous status or vice versa. Notification delivery was sent by using Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) to send notifications to Android. In the implementation, the application can receive notification of change of status sensor data equipped with sound when notification received.

Cervical cancer is the leading cause of death women in the world and number one in Indonesia. An effort that can be done for this case is early detection, for example, an IVA test (visual inspection test with acetic acid). However, the IVA test is not able to indicate patients who have potential cancer before cancer's physical characteristics are seen. Thus a new solution is needed for early detection of cervical cancer that can indicate patients who have potential cancer before cancer's physical characteristics are seen. In recent years, various types of miRNA that play a role in cancer malignancies have been identified and can be used as non-invasive biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and monitoring. The use of classification based on miRNA gene expression is a solution for early detection, but the use of high accuracy classification algorithms is something that must be considered. Random Forest (RF) algorithm is the solution to these problems because better generalization performance and is less susceptible to overfitting. In this study also identified important features that are very influential in the classification process. The results showed that the Random Forest algorithm was able to have 100% accuracy for classification and most important features supporting the cancer were miR-549c-5p, miR-183 and miR-515-5p.

Cancer is still a significant problem for people today because it is one of the biggest causes of death in the world. Based on GLOBOCAN data in 2018, breast cancer accounted for the world's largest cancer mortality rate in women by 6.6% with total deaths amounting to 626,679 from 2,088,849 cases of cancer in the world. The high mortality rate of breast cancer is caused by the lack of effective early detection of the disease. MicroRNAs play an essential role in regulating cell division cycles, apoptosis, senescence, migration and cell invasion, and metastasis. The expression of microRNA in breast cancer shows a pattern compared to normal breasts, thus indicating its role as a potential diagnostic marker. Cancer classification using microRNA as a feature has been done in previous studies using Neural Network Backpropagation, however without optimization and tuning parameters. In this paper, we investigated the best optimization algorithm and tuning parameter of neural network backpropagation for cancer classification using microRNA feature. The optimization algorithms were Gradient Descent, Momentum, AdaGrad, AdaDelta, RMSProp, and Adam. The result of the experiment showed that Adam and RMSPop optimizer produced high accuracy which reached 98.536% and 98.54762% accuracy.

Water and sediment ecosystems are often influenced by fish farming activities especially organic matter that lead to organic enrichment. The macrobenthic community is one of the benthic organisms that can be used as bioindicator to detect disturbances in aquatic environments. The purpose of this study was to compare the distribution patterns of macrobenthic assemblages adjacent to floating net cages situated at Karang Lebar Island, Jakarta using a multivariate approach. Three sampling locations were assessed, each with three stations and three replicates. Each location consisted of a floating net cage of monoculture, a floating net cage of IMTA (Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture), and a reference site at Karang Lebar Island, Kepulauan Seribu, DKI Jakarta. All data concerning macrobenthic presence was expressed using diversity (H'), evenness (e) and dominance (C) indices.

Further analysis done using multivariate analysis was presented as 2D-ordination by Nonmetric Multi-Dimensional Scaling (NMDS). The composition of macrobenthic assemblages was dominated by gastropods (18 species), bivalves (9 species) and Polychaeta (7 species). Based on NMDS ordination, there was a tendency of grouping stations by sampling time. It is particularly so between sampling times II and III, and between sampling times I and III. However, this grouping did not occur between sampling times I and II. It may indicate that the macrobenthic assemblages were influenced by certain annual seasons.

Meanwhile, depending on sampling locations, the assemblages were influenced by environmental variability. The stations were grouped by the aquacultural areas and reference area on the ordination with some overlapping stations positioned among them. However, the tendency of grouping the stations between IMTA and monocultural sites did not occur, implying both farming practices have a relatively similar impact on the structure of macrobenthic assemblages.

The quality of Rawapening waters is constantly changing over time. The bloom growth of water hyacinth, fishery aquaculture activities and environmental pressures are getting heavier as expressed as eutrophication. This will affect in plankton composition. Plankton can provide an indication of changes and environmental quality, especially of its biotic structure and biodiversity. The upper part of Rawapening lake, similar to other part of the lake, is enriched with semi and aquatic plant. The purpose of this research is to analyze the condition of plankton currently, so that it can understand the change of water quality to support lake and fishery managements. The study was conducted in June 2018 on the upper parts of Rawapening Lake, particularly the southern side where many spring waters appear. Plankton collection was done by sampling using plankton net no 25. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and semi-quantitative using community structure including diversity, evenness and domination indices. The results showed that common plankton species found were Melosira sp, Synedra sp and Chlorella sp. Aulacosiera sp is quite abundant in all five stations reaching a range of 34-153 individuals / lt. In term of ecosystem stability, the waters are qualified as small to moderate stability conditions (H index :1.04 - 2.18) The species abundance tend to be small, especially in the spring station, which is associated with low water nutrients from springs. Aulacosiera sp is still dominate the plankton component for some station. The species which previously experienced a high domination, especially the Aulacoseira spp, change into a minority. This condition is mainly related to the changing physical condition of environmental. This, at a glance shows that the former water source area is still in good quality at this time experiencing enrichment. This is related to the increasing fishery practices of floating cage net of cultivation area approaching the spring water areas. The limitation and regulation in this area are urgently implemented and enforced, because clean water supply is important for the supply and circulation, which is not only for culture practice but also the lake in general.

Heavy metal content in water always changes depending on lithology and disposal of contaminated waste. Heavy metals are difficult to decompose in water and are easily bound in sediment so that the more sediment accumulation, the greater the heavy metal content. Heavy metals have toxic effects on humans and other livings, accumulate in the body of an organism and stay for a long period. This compound can lead to a decrease in water quality which will affect the fishery and in pond cultivation. One of the important heavy metal pollutants is lead (Pb), which is usually came from many sources. The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration of lead in seaweed, pond water, and sediment. This research was conducted in March 2018 from 6 pond stations. This research was conducted using descriptive and statistic analysis. Analysis of Pb compound is done using AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry). The results of the analysis of Pb content in seaweed ranged between 0.0163-0.1377 mg / kg. Pb content in pond water range from 0.0087 -0.0137 mg / lt and the Pb content in sediment range between 1.2703-2.3594 mg / lt.

Macroalgae, such as Sargassum and Gracilaria have a great potential to be used as soil conditioner. Addition of macroalgae powder into a certain type of soil could significantly change soil fertility. The presence of gelatinous material in Sargassum and Gracilaria are predicted to be able in changing the chemical characteristic of soil, including organic material content, pH and C/N ratio. This study was focused on the evaluation of soil fertility sandy and clay soil after addition of Sargassum and Gracilaria powder as a soil conditioner. The collected macroalga was dried and soaked in fresh water several time to lower its salinity to reach into a normal level. The dried powder of Sargassum and Gracilaria were added and mixed through into sandy and clay soil (in a composition of 25%:75%). Treated soil was measured for their physical, chemical and physiological properties changes. Each treatment was replicated three times. Data were analyzed using ANOVA single factor and t-test. Results indicated that the addition of soil conditioner from macroalga Sargassum and Gracilaria were significantly increasing organic material content. Addition of Sargassum powder increased organic material more than Gracilaria. C/N ratio in sandy and clay soil was reduced by the presence of this both soil conditioner. Therefore, there was a strong indication in increasing in supporting for more soil fertility. The presence of macroalga was proven also in reducing pH to a normal level. It is recommended to develop this material to improve soil fertility and plant growth.

The nutritional needs are the primer need in the earth. Various solution of food security problem such as GMO product and chemical fertilizer, are still not effective to clear it because the global warming annualy reported may cause to the crop failures. In addition, the amount of carbohydrate that can be adsorbed by human body is less. The Cellulose is one of the carbohydrate that human can not adsorb to get glucose. Grasshopper can digest the cellulose of grass because there are bacteria live in their organs to produce the enzyme. The bacteria that have an ability giving advantage in the body are known as probiotic. However, the development of this function has became a great attention. The aim is obtaining grasshopper gut bacteria caracterized as lactic acid bacteria potential as novel probiotic to produce cellulase for human digestion. Methods used are; Isolation of grasshopper gut bacteria, Purification and screening modificated of novel probotic candidates. The bacteria were screened by using modificated medium to detect the enzyme activity and pathogenic possibility as well as SP-SDS method to enumerate the tolerance of the bacteria after treatment in the period. The result shows that two bacteria strains of grasshopper gut bacteria are capable to break down the cellulose in the screening process. The bacteria was also caracterized as the lactid acid bacteria. The activity of gamma haemolytic of the bacteria shows the non-pathogenic property on blood. Bile salt and acid pH condition for 48 hour period was tested on the bacteria shows the high tolerance of life in the digestion. In conclusion, there are strain of grasshopper gut bacteria can be used as novel probiotic candidate to digest cellulose as solution of food security.
