A knowledge diagnostic system for product defects

The need to fulfill customer satisfaction and increase product quality has motivated many manufacturing firms to investigate and diagnose their product failure. To gain a correct and accurate diagnostic, the entire processing root must be recorded and controlled in every step of the manufacturing process. In this research, a prototype system has been developed for a tile manufacturing company to diagnose tile defects and to recommend actions for improvement. This system consists of two main components, the knowledge base and inference engine. The knowledge base has been developed by capturing data and information that are related to tile defects, such as symptoms, probable causes, types of defects, processes, sub processes, tile classifications, etc. On the other hand, the inference engine has been built by implementing the forward chaining and depth first searching methods to search for the causes of defects. The analysis proves that this system can help the workers in the company to diagnose tile defects and solve the problems. Besides this, the system can also help to share and transfer knowledge among the knowledge workers in the company

Regulatory Reconstruction of the Application of Digital Evidence in Realizing Children's Rights (Study of the Directory of Decisions of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia)

The development of technology continues and develops in accordance with the times. The use of technology is also carried out to the context of daily life so that life becomes more practical. Then, this context is also very close to the use of technology in the judicial process through the e-court system. This is what makes Constitutional Court Decision Number 46/PUU-VIII/2010 concerning the Examination of Article 43 paragraph (1) of Law Number 1 Year 1974 concerning Marriage appear and change the paradigm of proof from the determination of children outside marriage can be done by using technology in the form of DNA tests. In this case, electronic evidence or digital evidence can be strong evidence to recognize the father's nasab position over the child. The research method used in this research is Normative Juridical with a statutory approach and a case approach. The results and discussion of this study found that it turns out that the application of digital evidence can realize children's rights when looking at several existing decisions. Of the 10 (ten) decisions and/or court decisions that have been reviewed, all of them use digitized evidence and make the judge's view more objective, resulting in a decision that recognizes the father's lineage to the child. The context of this recognition is the essence that the concept of child recognition makes his rights fulfilled and the father cannot deny that the child is his own child. In addition, DNA evidence, CCTV and photos and videos exist to strengthen the position of the father's lineage to a child whose father previously did not recognize his own child. Regulatory reconstruction in the application of digital evidence to realize children's rights is carried out by changing the provisions of the Religious Courts Law and the Marriage Law in terms of strengthening the position of children's rights

The Classification of Children Gadget Addiction: The Employment of Learning Vector Quantization 3

The addiction of children to gadgets has a massive influence on their social growth. Thus, it is essential to note earlier on the addiction of children to such technologies. This study employed the learning vector quantization series 3 to classify the severity of gadget addiction due to the nature of this algorithm as one of the supervised artificial neural network methods. By analyzing the literature and interviewing child psychologists, this study highlighted 34 signs of schizophrenia with 2 level classifications. In order to obtain a sample of training and test data, 135 questionnaires were administered to parents as the target respondents. The learning rate parameter (α) used for classification is 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 with window (Ɛ) is 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and the epsilon values (m) are 0.1, 0.2, 0.3. The confusion matrix revealed that the highest performance of this classification was found in the value of 0.2 learning rate, 0.01 learning rate reduction, window 0.3, and 80:20 of ratio data simulation. This outcome demonstrated the beneficial consequences of Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) series 3 in the detection of children's gadget addiction

The Success Factors in Measuring the Millennial Generation’s Energy-Saving Behavior Toward the Smart Campus

The millennial generation has a pivotal role in leading the industrial digital revolution. Energy-saving behavior and millennials’ awareness of energy consumption for educational context become crucial in performing a smart campus. This study tries to identify the success factors in measuring the millennial generation’s energy-saving Behavior toward the smart campus. The measurement model considers two significant constructs, including energy-saving attitudes with energy-saving education (organizational saving climate); energy-saving education and environment knowledge (personal saving climate); and energy-saving information publicity as sub-indicators, and construct energy-saving Behavior viz sub-indicators Behavior regarding energy and behavior control. In order to determine the preference level of each indicator and sub-indicator, the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy-AHP) approach was executed by disseminating the questionnaire to 100 respondents from energy practitioners, students, and academicians in Indonesia. The calculation reveals that the energy-saving behavior construct has a higher priority value (0.94) than the energy-saving attitude (0.06). Meanwhile, energy-saving education and environment knowledge (personal saving climate) have been analyzed at the cutting-edge sub-indicator, followed by energy-saving information publicity and education (organizational saving climate). In addition, the sub-indicator for behaviors regarding energy becomes more demanding compared to behavioral control. As a novelty, the priority analysis of this Model aids the management of the campus and government in developing smart campus policies and governance. This Model can be used as a guideline for the management level to execute the smart campus practices. Thus, the effectiveness and optimization of smart campus transformation can be cultivated and accelerated. Besides, the potential coming of risks can be avoidable

The enhancement of collaborative learning through integrated knowledge management systems: E-learning model

There are still a few educational platforms that apply a Knowledge Management System (KMS) concept in conducting its operational work. In addition, several obstacles associated with e-learning implementation trigger the in-effectiveness of collaborative learning. However, the concept of Knowledge Management (KM) from a Sharia perspective has significant implications for education systems. This research, therefore, explored the relevance of the Learning Management System (LMS), KM theory, and Sharia education perspective on the development of the Integrated Knowledge Management System (IKMS) Framework. The IKMS components and structures are literature reviewed and then qualitatively justified through the focus group discussion which involved some students, lectures, and experts from two Sharia-based Universities in Indonesia. To verify and test the framework, an IKMS-Edu system was developed by focusing on the adoption of a controlling agent system in the online discussion. Herein, filtering and summarization technology was embedded into IKMS-Edu towards a smart controlling agent. This agent adopted the operational work of IKMS-Edu framework leveraging in four constructs activities viz., knowledge creation and knowledge acquisition (construct 1), knowledge organization and knowledge storage (construct 2), knowledge dissemination and knowledge retrieval (construct 3), and knowledge evaluation and feedback (construct 4). To date, the statistical evaluation of the IKMS-Edu system’s acceptance is conducted by disseminating the questionnaires. The mean scores revealed 40.45% of the respondents strongly agreed, and 42.18% agreed on the proposed framework and prototype system thus the framework aided in performing the IKMS during the collaborative learning activities. As such, this evidence provides the strong support that IKMS-Edu significantly enhanced the effectiveness of collaborative learning by considering the Sharia values of trust, knowledge, virtue, psychosocial, and civilization development into knowledge management activities

Profile of Single Mode Fiber Coupler Combining with Bragg Grating

This paper describes a numerical experiment of design and operation of a fiber coupler between single mode fiber and fiber Bragg grating (FBG). Both components are coupled depending with optical waveguide and source parameters. A characterization of fiber coupler is simulated by varying long grating of 10 mm to 60 mm using transfer matrix method based on coupled mode equation. The wave peak, transmission, and dispersion parameters are analyzed to determine the performance of the fiber coupler. The transmission spectrum showed the wave peaks rise to any increase in the grating length on channel 1 and channel 2. Transmission on channel 1 and channel 2 decreased from the wavelength range of 1.45μm–1.55μm and rised in the range of 1,55μm–1,65μm for each increment in length of grating. The dispersion showed the zero dispersion at specific wavelength for each increase in length of grating. This component can be applied for controlling information signal in wide range communication
