    Potensi batubara kokas sangat terbatas di dalam negeri mengingat produk ini merupakan jenis batubara peringkat tinggi (high rank coal) dan memiliki harga jual 2 hingga 3 kali harga batubara untuk kebutuhan pembangkit listrik. Nilai kalori dan kadar zat terbang adalah bagian dari indikator batubara kokas, yang ditentukan oleh mineral matter. Perkembangan harga batubara kokas yang cukup tinggi saat ini, bervariasi dari 80 hingga 120 US Dollar per ton baik di pasaran domestik maupun internasional maka akan sangat menguntungkan bila potensi batubara kokas yang dimiliki pertambangan batubara dapat dikelola dan dikembangkan. Salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi harga batubara adalah mineral matter.Dalam statistika salah satu metode untuk menaksir kandungan mineral matter ini adalah metode ordinary kriging. Sebelum menggunakan metode ini, data dipastikan harus stasioner, kemudian ditentukan model estimasi yang sesuai untuk menaksir mineral matter

    Our System IDCBR-MAS: from the Modelisation by AUML to the Implementation under JADE Platform

    This paper presents our work in the field of Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS), in fact there is still the problem of knowing how to ensure an individualized and continuous learners follow-up during learning process, indeed among the numerous methods proposed, very few systems concentrate on a real time learners follow-up. Our work in this field develops the design and implementation of a Multi-Agents System Based on Dynamic Case Based Reasoning which can initiate learning and provide an individualized follow-up of learner. This approach involves 1) the use of Dynamic Case Based Reasoning to retrieve the past experiences that are similar to the learner�s traces (traces in progress), and 2) the use of Multi-Agents System. Our Work focuses on the use of the learner traces. When interacting with the platform, every learner leaves his/her traces on the machine. The traces are stored in database, this operation enriches collective past experiences. The traces left by the learner during the learning session evolve dynamically over time; the case-based reasoning must take into account this evolution in an incremental way. In other words, we do not consider each evolution of the traces as a new target, so the use of classical cycle Case Based reasoning in this case is insufficient and inadequate. In order to solve this problem, we propose a dynamic retrieving method based on a complementary similarity measure, named Inverse Longest Common Sub-Sequence (ILCSS). Through monitoring, comparing and analyzing these traces, the system keeps a constant intelligent watch on the platform, and therefore it detects the difficulties hindering progress, and it avoids possible dropping out. The system can support any learning subject. To help and guide the learner, the system is equipped with combined virtual and human tutors

    Impulse control behavior in GBA-mutated parkinsonian patients

    Objective: To assess the prevalence and phenomenology of Impulse control behavior (ICB) in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients carrying mutations in the β-glucocerebrosidase (GBA) gene. Background: GBA mutations are a common genetic factor predisposing to PD. ICB is among the most disabling non-motor complications of PD. The occurrence of ICB in PD patients carrying GBA gene mutations (GBA-PD) has not been yet established. Methods: Forty-six patients with clinically definite PD (23 GBA-PD and 23 non-mutated patients, NM-PD) were screened for ICB. Diagnosis was clinically and rating based on a specific questionnaire (QUIP-RS). Other demographic and clinical variables did not differ between groups. Results: ICB occurred more frequently in GBA-PD patients (52.2%) compared to NM-PD (13%) and the total QUIP-RS score was higher in the GBA-PD group. Hypersexuality and compulsive shopping were the most prevalent ICB types occurring in GBA patients. ICB occurred only in one GBA-PD patient on levodopa monotherapy and in 11 patients taking dopamine agonists, either monotherapy or combined with levodopa (the corresponding figures in NM-PD patients were 0 and 3). Most GBA-PD patients were heterozygous for two common genetic variants, without appreciable difference in their ICB profile. Conclusion: ICB is more common in GBA-PD patients compared to NM-PD. Dopamine agonist therapy may be synergic to GBA carrier status for ICB occurrence

    Impulse control behaviours in patients with Parkinson's disease after subthalamic deep brain stimulation: de novo cases and 3-year follow-up

    Objective To document the occurrence of impulse control behaviours (ICBs) in patients with Parkinson's disease after 3 years of continuous deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN). Methods Detailed neurological and ICB assessments were performed before STN DBS and up to 3 years after implant. Results 13 out of 56 patients (23.2%) had ICBs at baseline; they took higher doses of dopamine agonists (DAA). Three years after implant 11 had fully remitted with a 60.8% reduction of DAA medication; the remaining two, who had a similar medication reduction, had only compulsive eating, having recovered from hypersexuality. Six of the 43 patients without ICBs at baseline (14%) developed transient de novo ICBs after implant; none of them had ICBs at the 3-year observation. Conclusions ICBs were abolished in patients 3 years after STN DBS and DAA dosages were lowered. New ICBs may occur after implant and are transient in most cases. Compulsive eating may be speci fically related to STN stimulation
