Specification-Driven Predictive Business Process Monitoring
Predictive analysis in business process monitoring aims at forecasting the
future information of a running business process. The prediction is typically
made based on the model extracted from historical process execution logs (event
logs). In practice, different business domains might require different kinds of
predictions. Hence, it is important to have a means for properly specifying the
desired prediction tasks, and a mechanism to deal with these various prediction
tasks. Although there have been many studies in this area, they mostly focus on
a specific prediction task. This work introduces a language for specifying the
desired prediction tasks, and this language allows us to express various kinds
of prediction tasks. This work also presents a mechanism for automatically
creating the corresponding prediction model based on the given specification.
Differently from previous studies, instead of focusing on a particular
prediction task, we present an approach to deal with various prediction tasks
based on the given specification of the desired prediction tasks. We also
provide an implementation of the approach which is used to conduct experiments
using real-life event logs.Comment: This article significantly extends the previous work in

Exchange Rate of Indonesia: Does Rupiah Overshoot?
This research attempts to analyze whether Rupiah overshoots when the crisis hit Indonesia in mid of 1998. It also try to find out the fundamental macroeconomic factors that influence exchange rate when economic crisis hit Indonesia. It uses ordinary least square method and also cointegration in order to see long-term relationship. Furthermore, in order to examine the stability of exchange rate when the exchange rate system changed from managed floating to free floating, this paper apply Chow Test. The result shows that when the economic crisis hit Indonesia, Rupiah overshoots and there has been a structural change of exchange rate after 1998.Overshoot;exchange rate;economic crisis;Indonesia
Features for matching people in different views
There have been significant advances in the computer vision field during the last decade.
During this period, many methods have been developed that have been successful in solving
challenging problems including Face Detection, Object Recognition and 3D Scene Reconstruction.
The solutions developed by computer vision researchers have been widely
adopted and used in many real-life applications such as those faced in the medical and
security industry. Among the different branches of computer vision, Object Recognition
has been an area that has advanced rapidly in recent years. The successful introduction of
approaches such as feature extraction and description has been an important factor in the
growth of this area. In recent years, researchers have attempted to use these approaches
and apply them to other problems such as Content Based Image Retrieval and Tracking.
In this work, we present a novel system that finds correspondences between people seen in
different images. Unlike other approaches that rely on a video stream to track the movement
of people between images, here we present a feature-based approach where we locate a
target’s new location in an image, based only on its visual appearance.
Our proposed system comprises three steps. In the first step, a set of features is extracted
from the target’s appearance. A novel algorithm is developed that allows extraction of features
from a target that is particularly suitable to the modelling task. In the second step,
each feature is characterised using a combined colour and texture descriptor. Inclusion
of information relating to both colour and texture of a feature add to the descriptor’s distinctiveness.
Finally, the target’s appearance and pose is modelled as a collection of such
features and descriptors. This collection is then used as a template that allows us to search
for a similar combination of features in other images that correspond to the target’s new
location.
We have demonstrated the effectiveness of our system in locating a target’s new position in
an image, despite differences in viewpoint, scale or elapsed time between the images. The
characterisation of a target as a collection of features also allows our system to robustly
deal with the partial occlusion of the target
Routing Symmetric Demands in Directed Minor-Free Graphs with Constant Congestion
The problem of routing in graphs using node-disjoint paths has received a lot of attention and a polylogarithmic approximation algorithm with constant congestion is known for undirected graphs [Chuzhoy and Li 2016] and [Chekuri and Ene 2013]. However, the problem is hard to approximate within polynomial factors on directed graphs, for any constant congestion [Chuzhoy, Kim and Li 2016].
Recently, [Chekuri, Ene and Pilipczuk 2016] have obtained a polylogarithmic approximation with constant congestion on directed planar graphs, for the special case of symmetric demands. We extend their result by obtaining a polylogarithmic approximation with constant congestion on arbitrary directed minor-free graphs, for the case of symmetric demands
Verification of Generalized Inconsistency-Aware Knowledge and Action Bases (Extended Version)
Knowledge and Action Bases (KABs) have been put forward as a semantically
rich representation of a domain, using a DL KB to account for its static
aspects, and actions to evolve its extensional part over time, possibly
introducing new objects. Recently, KABs have been extended to manage
inconsistency, with ad-hoc verification techniques geared towards specific
semantics. This work provides a twofold contribution along this line of
research. On the one hand, we enrich KABs with a high-level, compact action
language inspired by Golog, obtaining so called Golog-KABs (GKABs). On the
other hand, we introduce a parametric execution semantics for GKABs, so as to
elegantly accomodate a plethora of inconsistency-aware semantics based on the
notion of repair. We then provide several reductions for the verification of
sophisticated first-order temporal properties over inconsistency-aware GKABs,
and show that it can be addressed using known techniques, developed for
standard KABs
The Effect of Benzyl Amino Purine (BAP) Concentration on the Growth Amount of the Explant of Dendrobium spectabile Orchid by In-Vitro
Dendrobium spectabile orchid is an ornamental plant of high economic value, having relatively durable properties, beauty, and attractiveness of orchids lie in the diverse shapes and colors of the flowers. Therefore, it requires rapid and efficient propagation techniques. One of them is in-vitro vegetative propagation. Plant propagation using the in-vitro technique has the opportunity to produce a large number of plant seeds in a relatively short time. This study aims to determine the correct concentration of Benzyl Amino Purine (BAP) on the growth amount of the explants of Dendrobium spectabile orchid by in-vitro. The research was conducted at the Biotechnology Laboratory of the Regional Technical Implementation Unit (UPTD) of the Aloe Vera Center (AVC) Pontianak. This research was conducted from January 1, 2020, to March 30, 2020. The method used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The treatment consisted of 6 levels of treatment, namely b1 = 0.75 ppm, b2 = 1.00 ppm, b3 = 1.25 ppm, b4 = 1.50 ppm, b5 = 1.75 ppm, b6 = 2.00 ppm. All treatments were repeated 4 times for each treatment consisting of 3 plant samples. The research finding showed that the treatment of BAP concentration 1.50 was the best in increasing the average number of leaves 4.92 strands, the average number of shoots 4.25 buds, and the average leaf length was 2.44 cm
