This study about the influence of distribution cost and promotion cost to sales volume of candy tolak angin in PT Muncul Mekar Semarang. Companies often experience fluctuations in sales volumes of candy tolak angin. Issues to be discussed is how the promotion cost influence to sales volume, how the distribution cost influence to sales volume as well as how the influence of promotion costs and distribution costs to sales volume. While the purpose of this study is to determine the influence of promotion costs to sales volume, the influence of distribution costs to sales volume and the influence of promotion costs and distribution costs to sales volume. The type of this study is explanatory research that is explained and research the influence of existing variables. The data used is data in period of 2006 to 2011. To get it is used interview techniques to related parties. From the statistical calculations using simple regression analysis was known promotion costs to sales volume Y= 5222,9 + 0,0000193 X1, distribution costs to sales volume Y = 5638,8+ 0,00007478 X2. Through the multiple regression analysis between the cost of promotion and distribution costs to sales volume Y = 5044,6+ 0,0000195 X1 + 0,0000904 X2. By using the F test is known that the value of F count is 18.2 greater than F table (df1 = k= 2 and df2 = n-k-1=72-2-1 = 69) so F table is 3.13. And obtained the values ​​of significance (P value) is 0.001. Since the value of P value less than 0.05 it means Ha is accepted and Ho rejected, so it can be concluded that the promotion costs and distribution costs together may influence sales volume. While the dominant influence is given by the promotion costs. The conclusion is that the promotion costs used to support promotional activities are appropriate because the promotion is interesting

Validation, comparison, and combination of algorithms for automatic detection of pulmonary nodules in computed tomography images: The LUNA16 challenge

Automatic detection of pulmonary nodules in thoracic computed tomography (CT) scans has been an active area of research for the last two decades. However, there have only been few studies that provide a comparative performance evaluation of different systems on a common database. We have therefore set up the LUNA16 challenge, an objective evaluation framework for automatic nodule detection algorithms using the largest publicly available reference database of chest CT scans, the LIDC-IDRI data set. In LUNA16, participants develop their algorithm and upload their predictions on 888 CT scans in one of the two tracks: 1) the complete nodule detection track where a complete CAD system should be developed, or 2) the false positive reduction track where a provided set of nodule candidates should be classified. This paper describes the setup of LUNA16 and presents the results of the challenge so far. Moreover, the impact of combining individual systems on the detection performance was also investigated. It was observed that the leading solutions employed convolutional networks and used the provided set of nodule candidates. The combination of these solutions achieved an excellent sensitivity of over 95% at fewer than 1.0 false positives per scan. This highlights the potential of combining algorithms to improve the detection performance. Our observer study with four expert readers has shown that the best system detects nodules that were missed by expert readers who originally annotated the LIDC-IDRI data. We released this set of additional nodules for further development of CAD systems

Exchange Rate Pass-through Terhadap Harga Barang Ekspor, Studi Kasus Di Indonesia.

This study focuses on the relationship between the exchange rate and export performance, using Indonesian data. Although many studies have been undertaken on this topic, only a few have been devoted to developing countries. Studies of exchange rate passthrough (ERPT), especially for small open economies, show that incomplete pass-through is the most common result of the relationship between export prices and the exchange rate. Johansen's co-integration test was used to determine the long-run relationship between the variables tested. Where we could not perform the Johansen co-integration test because we had one stationaty variable, the ARDL (autoregressive distributed lag) approach to co-integration testing, as proposed by Pesaran and Shin, was used. The study shows that most of the Indonesian export commodities tested are price taker commodities. The ERPT of groups of commodities showed no long-run equilibrium relationship (or no co-integration) for the group of labour intensive goods (LBINT) and the group of resource base intensive good (RBASE). Although it was found that there was co-integration for the mining (MINING) and high technology intensive goods (HTECH) groups of commodities, the ERPT coefficients for these variables were not statistically significant at the 5% level. At the commodity level the study indicated that, except for palm oil and kayu gergajian, the Indonesian export commodities tested had relatively weak market power; in other words, Indonesia is a price taker in the world market for most of its export commodities

Relationship Between Characteristics of Marine Debris and Impact to Coral Reef

HighlightMarine debris can be as a treat for coral reefBranching coral is the most affected by marine debrisPlastic marine debris commonly found in all research location, especially from fisheries and daily activityAbstractA coral reef is one of the important ecosystems, however, the existence of coral reef is threatened. Several factors can be a threat to the coral reef, such as marine debris. Research about marine debris on coral reefs in Indonesia has not much been done. This research aims to identify marine debris that is found and impacted, to identify the impacts caused, and to identify the life forms most susceptible to being affected. This research was conducted in Kelapa Island, Kelapa Dua Island, and Harapan Island by using the Belt Transect method sized 20 x 4 m2 with four repetitions at each station to determine coral reef life form, and type of marine debris. The data was analyzed by using the Correspondence Analysis (CA) to determine the correlation of marine debris and the affected life forms of coral reefs. The result showed the plastic marine debris was found in all stations. Six life forms were affected by marine debris, and the most susceptible life forms that affected were massive and branching. The most dominant impact category on coral reefs was tissue loss with algal growth (TLAG)
