Recently, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) has been explored for non-invasive assessment of renal transplant functions. In this paper, a computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) system is developed to assess renal transplant functionality, which integrates both clinical and diffusion MRI -derived markers extracted from 4D DW-MRI (i.e. 3D + b-value). To extract the DW-MR image-markers, our framework performs multiple image processing steps, including kidney segmentation using a level-set approach and estimation of image-markers. To extract these image-markers, apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) are estimated from the segmented DW-MRIs and cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) of the ADCs are constructed at different b-values (i.e. gradient field strengths and duration). Finally, these markers (i.e. CDFs) are integrated with clinical biomarkers (e.g., creatinine clearance and serum plasma creatinine) to assess transplant status using stacked auto-encoders with non-negativity constraints based on deep learning classification approach. Our CAD system consists of two consecutive classification stages. The first stage classifier achieved a 96% accuracy, a 95% sensitivity, and a 100% specificity in distinguishing non-rejection (NR) from dysfunctional (DF) transplanted kidneys. Additionally, an overall accuracy of 94% has been obtained in the second stage in separating DF to acute rejection (AR) and different renal disease (DRD) transplants. Our preliminary results hold strong promise that the presented CAD system is of a high reliability to non-invasively diagnose renal transplant status.

Consumer purchasing patterns are a form of purchases made by consumers, whether someone or a lot of people to get the desired item by making a purchase transaction. One characteristic of the purchase pattern is the existence of acquiring something through exchanging money. This study aims to create an application that is used in determining consumer purchasing patterns by applying a priori algorithms and using Visual Basic 2010 as a tool for determining consumer purchase patterns. This application uses a priori algorithm calculation method where the sample consumer purchase data will be sorted and calculated by providing the value of the minium support and configuration parameters and based on the results of confidence the largest number of conclusions such as: can be used as information for determining sales, the application of a priori algorithms can provide information pattern combination item set from consumer purchase data that is with support above 15% and confidence above 50% on item set.

Cryptography is the science and art of maintaining the security of messages when messages are sent from one place to another. One of the ways securing the form of text message information is by the encryption process using the Vigenere Cipher algorithm and utilizing the One Time Pad (OTP) algorithm as a key generator, where the message will be random when it is opened. The message encryption process used the vigenere cipher algorithm while OTP is used to secure the key with the same formula. After this research has been done, an application was designed to secure text messages by converting the text message into a random message so that the message was unreadable due to a secret message that could not be known by others. The results achieved can secure an encrypted message that cannot be reopened and if those messages were reopened, they must be decrypted.

A good age in optimizing aspects of development is at the age of 4-6 years, namely with psychomotor development. Psychomotor is broader, more difficult to monitor but has a meaningful value for the child's life because it directly affects his behavior and deeds. Therefore, there is a problem to predict the child's ability level based on psychomotor. This analysis uses backpropagation method analysis with artificial neural network to predict the ability of the child on the psychomotor aspect by generating predictions of the child's ability on psychomotor and testing there is a mean squared error (MSE) value at the end of the training of 0.001. There are 30% of children aged 4-6 years have a good level of psychomotor ability, excellent, less good, and good enough.

Background： Restricted Boltzmann machines （RBMs） are endowed with the universal power of modeling （binary） joint distributions. Meanwhile, as a result of their confining network structure, training RBMs confronts less difficulties when dealing with approximation and inference issues. But little work has been developed to fully exploit the capacity of these models to analyze cancer data, e.g., cancer genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic and epigenomic data. On the other hand, in the cancer data analysis task, the number of features/predictors is usually much larger than the sample size, which is known as the ＇~ 〉〉 N＂ problem and is also ubiquitous in other bioinformatics and computational biology fields. The ＂p 〉〉 N＂ problem puts the bias-variance trade-off in a more crucial place when designing statistical learning methods. However, to date, few RBM models have been particularly designed to address this issue. Methods： We propose a novel RBMs model, called elastic restricted Boltzmann machines （eRBMs）, which incorporates the elastic regularization term into the likelihood function, to balance the model complexity and sensitivity. Facilitated by the classic contrastive divergence （CD） algorithm, we develop the elastic contrastive divergence （eCD） algorithm which can train eRBMs efficiently. Results： We obtain several theoretical results on the rationality and properties of our model. We further evaluate the power of our model based on a challenging task -- predicting dichotomized survival time using the molecular profiling of tumors. The test results show that the prediction performance of eRBMs is much superior to that of the state-of-the-art methods. Conclusions： The proposed eRBMs are capable of dealing with the ＂p 〉〉 N＂ problems and have superior modeling performance over traditional methods. Our novel model is a promising method for future cancer data analysis.

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a pervasive developmental disorder that will affect children in terms of interpersonal communication, social interaction, and imaginative levels in play. Many therapies to help the motor neuron performance is one of them Pretend Play. Pretend Play is a therapy that invites children in playing to demonstrate something else and tell how to use objects that are considered in the child's imagination. However, in the era of highly developed technology, many fields have used the Augmented Reality method as a visualization of various aspects. With this method researchers will present the therapeutic visualization of the block to 3D transportation tool that is useful for strengthening motor nerves and visual strength of the child. The system can run well during marker detection, marker movement, and 3D object display with the accuracy of precision angle and distance between virtual world with real world reach 100% with angle 0 at distance 31 cm and the maximum distance from the marker is 46 cm and the maximum angle is 30˚.
