The activities of copy and paste fragments of code from a source code into the other source code is often done by software developers because it's easier than generate code manually. This behavior leads to the increase of effort to maintain the code. One of the detection methods of semantic cloning is based on the behavior of the code. The code behavior detected by observing at an input, output and the effects of the method. Methods with the same value of input, output, and effect will indicate that semantically the same. However, the detection method based on the input, output, and effect could not be used in a void method or method without parameters, another side comprehensively detection is required. The challenge is how to detect which variable in a method that acts as input, output, and effect. Detection of the variable input, output, and effects in a void method done using Program Dependence Graph. The use of clone detection methods semantically based on behavior can increase the agreement value.

M.; Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta Khairudin , S.; Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta Riyanto , Z.; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Mohammed
This paper presents the design and the development of an indoor lighting control based on fuzzy logic controller (FLC). The objective of this study is to demonstrate how the FLC can optimize the lighting based on indoor and outdoor lighting environments. The FLC system uses two inputs with Light Dependent Resistors (LDR) as a sensor at indoor and outdoor lighting environments. The output is Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to provide lighting at the room automatically. The Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is used to adjust the LEDs lighting in the room. FLC has successfully demonstrated performance to control the output of LEDs as needed. If the LDR 1 input as indoor sensor shows dim, it will automatically turn on brightly. The MSE values for simulation and experiment of LDR 1 and LDR 2 were 34.42 and 30.11 respectively. The results of FLC performance in the simulation work are further validated by an experimental work. Experimental results show similarities compared to the simulation results.

Democracy, a lifestyle as much as it is a form of government, begins to be learned in the family. The youth observe and acquire the democratic attitudes of their parents. The task of passing it on to the new generations and helping them acquire democratic values is the mission of schools, namely teachers. It is a commonly known fact that developmental level of countries shows parallelism with the democratic attitudes of individuals. It is important to understand the democratic perceptions and attitudes of teachers who are responsible for positioning democratic structure and thus raising the democratic level of countries. For this reason, the research aims to examine the democratic perceptions and attitudes of music teacher candidates in terms of some variables. Data collected using the democratic attitude scale were analyzed using t-test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and Spearman’s correlation coefficient. Results showed that attitude scores did not change according to gender, level of parents’ education or the year students were in. Scale scores were negatively correlated with the amount of parents’ income. There was no correlation between the students’ GPAs and the scale scores. Music teaching requires a democratic environment intrinsically; therefore, the democratic perceptions and attitudes of the music teacher candidates who will carry out the music lessons in which they should maintain the democratic environment must be determined. As aforementioned notions suggest, this study is of the essence since the results will shed light on the academic staff in the institutions that train music teachers.

The massive proliferation of social media has opened possibilities for the perpetrator conducting the crime of online child grooming. Because the pervasiveness of the problem scale, it may only be tamed effectively and efficiently by using an automatic grooming conversation detection system. The current study intends to address the issue by using Support Vector Machine and k-nearest neighbors’ classifiers. Besides, the study also proposes a low-computational cost classification method, which classifies a conversation using the number of the existing grooming conversation characteristics. All proposed methods are evaluated using 150 textual conversations of which 105 are grooming, and 45 are non-grooming. We identify that grooming conversations possess 17 features of grooming characteristics. The results suggest that the SVM and k-NN can identify grooming conversations at 98.6% and 97.8% of the level of accuracy. Meanwhile, the proposed simple method has 96.8% accuracy. The empirical study also suggests that two among the seventeen characteristics are insignificant for the classification.

Sentiment analysis in short informal texts like product reviews is more challenging. Short texts are sparse, noisy, and lack of context information. Traditional text classification methods may not be suitable for analyzing sentiment of short texts given all those difficulties. A common approach to overcome these problems is to enrich the original texts with additional semantics to make it appear like a large document of text. Then, traditional classification methods can be applied to it. In this study, we developed an automatic sentiment analysis system of short informal Indonesian texts using Naïve Bayes and Synonym Based Feature Expansion. The system consists of three main stages, preprocessing and normalization, features expansion and classification. After preprocessing and normalization, we utilize Kateglo to find some synonyms of every words in original texts and append them. Finally, the text is classified using Naïve Bayes. The experiment shows that the proposed method can improve the performance of sentiment analysis of short informal Indonesian product reviews. The best sentiment classification performance using proposed feature expansion is obtained by accuracy of 98%.The experiment also show that feature expansion will give higher improvement in small number of training data than in the large number of them.

Stereo vision in detecting human motion is an emerging research for automation, robotics, and sports science field due to the advancement of imaging sensors and information technology. The difficulty of human motion detection and tracking is relatively complex when it is applied to uncontrolled environment. In this paper, a hybrid filter approach is proposed to detect human motion in the stereo vision. The hybrid filter approach integrates Gaussian filter and median filter to reduce the coverage of shadow and sudden change of illumination. In addition, sequential thinning and thickening morphological method is used to construct the skeleton model. The proposed hybrid approach is compared with the normalized filter. As a result, the proposed approach produces better skeleton model with less influential effect on shadow and illumination. The output results of the proposed approach can show up to 86% of average accuracy matched with skeleton model. In addition, obtains approximately 94% of sensitivity measurement in the stereo vision. The proposed approach using hybrid filter and sequential morphology could improve the performance of the detection in the uncontrolled environment.

Travelling is one of the activities needed by everyone to overcome weariness. The number of information about the tourism destination on the internet sometimes does not provide easiness for oncoming tourists. This paper proposes a system capable of making travel itinerary, for tourists who want to visit an area within a few days. For generating itinerary, the system considers several criterias (Multi-criteria-based), which include the popularity level of tourist attractions to visit, tourist visits that minimize budgets or tourist visits with as many destinations as possible. To handle multi criteria-based itinerary, we use the concept of multi attribute utility theory (MAUT). The running time of multi criteria-based itinerary is not significantly different from time-based itinerary. In addition, the number of tourist attractions in the itinerary is more than time-based itinerary, because the combination of solutions from each ant becomes more diverse.

Important parameters that need to be known from the results of cardiac examination using Electrocardiograph is the parameter value of PQRST amplitude peak on each lead. Peak P is associated with Atrium depolarization, QRS waves associated with ventricle depolarization and peak T associated with ventricle repolarization. The PQRST peak values on each lead to date are still manually calculated using small boxes on the ECG paper. Manual calculations lead to less accurate results and calculated waiting times. Less accuracy can lead to misdiagnosis while waiting times can result in increased disease stage. In this article we have been able to represent the values of PQRST amplitude peak and cardiogram in each cycle on each lead of the electrocardiogram. Continuous signal Electrocardiogram (ECG) examination results, in sampling at certain frequencies to obtain discrete data which is the amplitude as a function of integer numbers (N). The maximum amplitude value of each cycle is peak R. The peak time duration R to peak R (dR) is used as the time period of each cycle. A 1.5dR reversal of RN + 1 reverses the starting point of the cycle (sc) while the 0.5dR duration reversal of RN + 1 will be obtained by the end point of the cycle (ec). The maximum and minimum amplitude values between sc and peak R are peak P and peak Q respectively, while the minimum and maximum values between peak R to ec are peak Q and peak T respectively. Discrete data from Physionet MIT-BIH and bmeuwg are used as data to obtain PQRST peak electrocardiogram parameter values in each cycle.

The development of this application has a goal to give people who don’t have any idea of how to keep an ideal body weight and to maintain it by having controlled food intakes and exercises. This application is designed by using a Waterfall Model, a 5-phase model that is Communication, Planning, Modeling, Construction, and Deployment starting from as the aforementioned steps. Based on the responds we get from distributing questionnaire, many people didn’t know how to exercise properly and didn’t bother to check the calories of their food. Their weight is also a problem because most of them still have an Overweight or Underweight status. From those responds, we can conclude that our application will indeed help people to get and maintain their ideal body weight.
