    Full text link
    The maternal mortality rate during childbirth can be reduced through the efforts of the medical team in determining the childbirth process that must be undertaken immediately. Machine learning in terms of classifying childbirth can be a solution for the medical team in determining the childbirth process. One of the classification methods that can be used is the Support Vector Machine (SVM) method which is able to determine a hyperplane that will form a good decision boundary so that it is able to classify data appropriately. In SVM, there is a kernel function that is useful for solving non-linear classification cases by transforming data to a higher dimension. In this study, four kernel functions will be used; Linear, Radial Basis Function (RBF), Polynomial, and Sigmoid in the classification process of childbirth in order to determine the kernel function that is capable of producing the highest accuracy value. Based on research that has been done, it is obtained that the accuracy value generated by SVM with linear kernel functions is higher than the other kernel functions.Angka kematian ibu hamil saat proses melahirkan dapat diturunkan melalui upaya ketepatan tim medis dalam menentukan proses persalinan yang harus dijalani. Pembelajaran menggunakan mesin dalam hal mengklasifikasikan proses persalinan bisa menjadi solusi bagi tim medis dalam menentukan proses persalinan. Salah satu metode klasifikasi yang dapat digunakan adalah metode Support Vector Machine (SVM) yang mampu menentukan hyperplane yang akan membentuk decision boundary yang baik sehingga mampu mengklasifikasikan data dengan tepat. Pada SVM terdapat fungsi kernel yang berguna untuk menyelesaikan kasus klasifikasi non linier dengan cara mentransformasi data ke dimensi yang lebih tinggi. Pada penelitian ini akan digunakan empat fungsi kernel; Linier, Radial Basis Function (RBF), Polinomial, dan Sigmoid pada proses klasifikasi proses persalinan guna mengetahui fungsi kernel yang mampu menghasilkan nilai akurasi tertinggi. Berdasarkan penelitian yang telah dilakukan diperoleh bahwasanya nilai akurasi yang dihasilkan oleh SVM dengan fungsi kernel linier lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan tiga fungsi kernel yang lainnya

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Control of The Spread of TB-HIV/AIDS Coinfection Using Optimal Control

    The condition in which an individual is affected by TB and HIV/AIDS in his body is called a TB-HIV/AIDS coinfection. This research aims to minimize the populations of TB-HIV/AIDS coinfection with a minimum expenditure on medical expenses, that means minimizing the objective’s function ( ) or purpose function. In this research, modification of the model was carried out by adding the treatment population for HIV patients with ARV ( ). The population used was 11 classes with the use of three controls including treatment for individuals with latent TB ( ), active TB ( ), and HIV ( ). After performing numerical simulation using the forward backward fourth order Runge-Kutta, the results show that scenario 7 is the best scenario in controlling the spread of TB-HIV/AIDS coinfection because it resulted a minimum  value of 1401,44. This means that providing the treatment for individuals with latent TB, active TB, and HIV in tandem can reduce the populations of TB-HIV/AIDS coinfection in the minimum treatment cost

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    Curah hujan, temperatur, kecepatan angin, kelembaban udara, dan penyinaran matahari adalah paremeter klimatologi. Perubahan parameter klimatologi yang signifikan mengakibatkan terjadinya bencana alam seperti banjir, angin kencang, puting beliung, tanah longsor, cuaca ekstrem hingga kekeringan. Informasi parameter klimatologi sangat dibutuhkan pada berbagai sektor kehidupan, misal pertanian, pariwisata, dan transportasi. Oleh karena itu, informasi tentang parameter klimatologi dibutuhkan di masa depan sebagai upaya mitigasi bencana. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memprediksi perubahan parameter klimatologi menggunakan Multivariate Singular Spectrum Analysis (MSSA). Data yang digunakan adalah data harian paremeter klimatologi di Malang periode Januari 2023 hingga Mei 2024. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan nilai model MSSA dengan M = 50, Grouping Effect (r) = 12 dan nilai MAD terkecil menghasilkan prediksi parameter klimatologi di Malang bulan Juni 2024 meliputi temperatur suhu 25.45°C, kelembapan 77.23%, curah hujan 10.56 mm, penyinaran matahari 5.94 jam, dan kecepatan angin 1.84 m/s

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
