MEMPERKENALKAN CLAY TEPUNG SEBAGAI SENI KERAJINAN ALTERNATIF UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KREATIFITAS REMAJA MELALUI MEDIA KOMUNIKASI VISUAL
ABSTRAK
Reduce, Reuse, dan Recycle. Mungkin istilah-istilah ini sangat sering dibicarakan sejak keluarnya issue Pemanasan Global. Sejak saat itu seluruh kegiatan yang berpotensi menyebabkan pemanasa global semakin menjadi sorotan di Indonesia pada khususnya. Banyak hal yang dilakukan baik oleh pemerintah maupun perorangan untuk mengurangi dampak dari Pemanasan Global mulai dari pengontrolan emisi kendaraan, mengurangi pengganaan mesin pendingin, hingga mengurangi jumlah sampah nondegradable dengan jalan daur ulang (Recycle). Banyak sekali benda-benda yang ada disekitar kita yang sebenarnya “dibuang sayang”. Siapa bilang benda-benda bekas tidak bisa menghasilkan? Buktinya banyak sekali benda-benda unik berhasil diciptakan dari barang bekas. Seperti dompet dari kertas pembungkus, pot bunga dari kaleng bekas, hingga clay dari tepung kadaluarsa. Beranjak dari hal tersebut mungkin baru segelintir orang yang menyadari hal ini, clay contohnya. Dewasa ini bisnis kerajinan tangan salah satunya clay sudah sepatutnya dilirik. Tidak harus mahal, clay sebenarnya bisa dibuat menggunakan tepung kadaluarsa, hanya saja bisnis ini kurang berkembang karena image clay adalah hobby yang mahal masih sulit dihilangkan dari benak konsumen. Remaja sebagai salah satu target konsumen yang paling menarik karena sifatnya yang dinamis perlu diarahkan kepada suatu aktifitas yang positif dan kreatif, salah satunya adalah berkreasi dengan clay. Pembuatan media dan sampling dipandang perlu dilakukan, karena pendekatan secara teori tidak akan mudah diserap oleh para remaja. Biarkan mereka melihat dan mencoba clay itu sendiri maka mereka akan jauh lebih tertarik, oleh karena itu media maskot, kemasan, folder, pin, poster, e-banner, celemek, t-shirt, tas kain, dan katalog akan membantu proses edukasi dikalangan remaja.

INTRODUCING FLOUR CLAY AS ALTERNATIVE ART CRAFT TO INCREASE YOUTH CREATIVITY THROUGH VISUAL COMMUNICATION MEDIA
ABSTRACT
Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Perhaps these terms are very frequently discussed issue since the release of Global Warming. Since then all activities that could potentially cause Global Warning has became the spotlight in Indonesia in particular. Many things were done by both the government and individuals to lessen the impact of Global Warming ranging from controlling vehicle emissions, reduce the use of aircon, reduce the amount of waste nondegradable (Recycle) things. There are so many things around us that actually "dumped dear". Who says the unused objects can not produce? Proof, lot of unique objects had been created from recycled materials. Such as wallets of wrapping paper, flower pots from tin cans, clay from expired flour. There only few people that aware about this, for example they turn expired flour into clay. Nowadays one business clay craft has should me counted in term of profitable business. Does not have to be expensive, in fact clay can be made using expired flour, it's just business image is less developed because clay is an expensive hobby is still difficult tobe removed from the minds of consumers. Adolescents as one of the most attractive target consumers because of its dynamic need to be directed to a positive and creative activities, one of which is to play clay. Media preparation and sampling is deemed necessary, because in theory the approach will not be easily absorbed by the teens. Let them see and try out the clay itself then they would be much more interested, therefore mascot media, packaging, folders, pins, posters, e-banners, aprons, t-shirts, cloth bags, and the catalog will help the process of education among adolescents.

Occlusion-Aware Object Localization, Segmentation and Pose Estimation
We present a learning approach for localization and segmentation of objects
in an image in a manner that is robust to partial occlusion. Our algorithm
produces a bounding box around the full extent of the object and labels pixels
in the interior that belong to the object. Like existing segmentation aware
detection approaches, we learn an appearance model of the object and consider
regions that do not fit this model as potential occlusions. However, in
addition to the established use of pairwise potentials for encouraging local
consistency, we use higher order potentials which capture information at the
level of im- age segments. We also propose an efficient loss function that
targets both localization and segmentation performance. Our algorithm achieves
13.52% segmentation error and 0.81 area under the false-positive per image vs.
recall curve on average over the challenging CMU Kitchen Occlusion Dataset.
This is a 42.44% decrease in segmentation error and a 16.13% increase in
localization performance compared to the state-of-the-art. Finally, we show
that the visibility labelling produced by our algorithm can make full 3D pose
estimation from a single image robust to occlusion.Comment: British Machine Vision Conference 2015 (poster
Deep Predictive Models for Collision Risk Assessment in Autonomous Driving
In this paper, we investigate a predictive approach for collision risk
assessment in autonomous and assisted driving. A deep predictive model is
trained to anticipate imminent accidents from traditional video streams. In
particular, the model learns to identify cues in RGB images that are predictive
of hazardous upcoming situations. In contrast to previous work, our approach
incorporates (a) temporal information during decision making, (b) multi-modal
information about the environment, as well as the proprioceptive state and
steering actions of the controlled vehicle, and (c) information about the
uncertainty inherent to the task. To this end, we discuss Deep Predictive
Models and present an implementation using a Bayesian Convolutional LSTM.
Experiments in a simple simulation environment show that the approach can learn
to predict impending accidents with reasonable accuracy, especially when
multiple cameras are used as input sources.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure
Hypertension as a Determining Factor in the Rupture of Intracranial Aneurysms, Diagnosed by 64-MDCT Angiography
Background: To determine a correlation between risk factors and the rupture of intracranial aneurysms. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 29 patients with a saccular intracranial aneurysm was obtained using consecutive sampling and examination of 64-MDCT angiography. Bivariate statistical analysis using Fisher's exact test was arranged using cross-tabulation to determine the correlation between each risk factor of age, sex, hypertension, and smoking with the occurrence of ruptured intracranial aneurysms. Results: The highest incidence of ruptured intracranial aneurysms were in patients aged <60 years (70%), male (75%), experienced hypertension (85%), and were smokers (85.7%). Only the risk factor of hypertension had a correlation with the occurrence of a ruptured intracranial aneurysm (p < 0.05). The prevalence ratio of age and sex were 1.0 and 0.9, whereas hypertension and smoking were 2.6 and 1.3. Conclusions: The risk factor of hypertension leading to a ruptured intracranial aneurysm was 2.6 times higher than non-hypertensive patients, and as such hypertension is a risk factor associated with the occurrence of ruptured intracranial aneurysm
Growth Optimization of Thermophilic Bacteria Bacillus thermoamylovorans and Brevibacillus sp. in Producing Keratinolytic Enzyme
Some thermophilic bacteria have been isolated from Tanjung Sakti hot spring. Two isolates which qualitatively showed keratinolytic activity, identified as Bacillus thermoamylovorans and Brevibacillus sp., were optimized the growth in producing keratinase enzyme. Keratinase is a group of proteolytic enzyme which able to hydrolyze insoluble protein (keratin). In this research, whole chicken feathers were used as keratin substrate. The growth curves and measurement of keratinase enzyme activities were determined to the isolates, with a span of measuring 4 hours during 48 hours incubation, and gained the growth and optimum enzyme activity at 28 h incubation. The isolates were then observed the growth and keratinase activity at several different temperatures and pH. The results showed that the optimum temperature and pH for both isolates were same, i.e. at temperature 70° C and pH 7. The effect of adding a source of carbon and nitrogen into the medium were also observed. The growths of both isolates were increased on the addition of 1% glucose and 0.4% casein
