The Python Earth Engine application programming interface (API) provides a new open-source ecosphere for testing hydrocarbon detection algorithms on large volumes of images curated with the Google Earth Engine. We specifically demonstrate the Python Earth Engine API by calculating three hydrocarbon indices: fluorescence, rotation absorption, and normalized fluorescence. The Python Earth Engine API provides an ideal environment for testing these indices with varied oil seeps and spills by (1) removing barriers of proprietary software formats and (2) providing an extensive library of data analysis tools (e.g., Pandas and Seaborn) and classification algorithms (e.g., Scikit-learn and TensorFlow). Our results demonstrate end-member cases in which fluorescence and normalized fluorescence indices of seawater and oil are statistically similar and different. As expected, predictive classification is more effective and the calculated probability of oil is more accurate for scenarios in which seawater and oil are well separated in the fluorescence space.

This publication presents the architecture integration and implementation of various modules inSpartaframework.Spartais a trajectory engine that is hooked to an Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) database for Multi-dimensional analysis capability. OLAP is an Online Analytical Processing database that has a comprehensive list of atmospheric entry probes and their vehicle dimensions, trajectory data, aero-thermal data and material properties like Carbon, Silicon and Carbon-Phenolic based Ablators. An approach is presented for dynamic TPS design. OLAP has the capability to run in one simulation several different trajectory conditions and the output is stored back into the database and can be queried for appropriate trajectory type. An OLAP simulation can be setup by spawning individual threads to run for three types of trajectory:Nominal,Undershoot and Overshoot trajectory. Sparta graphical user interface provides capabilities to choose from a list of flight vehicles or enter trajectory and geometry information of a vehicle in design. DOTNET framework acts as a middleware layer between the trajectory engine and the user interface and also between the web user interface and the OLAP database. Trajectory output can be obtained in TecPlot format, Excel output or in a KML (Keyhole Markup Language) format. Framework employs an API (application programming interface) to convert trajectory data into a formatted KML file that is used by Google Earth for simulating Earth-entry fly-by visualizations.

Abstract – Based on the concept of Application programming interface (API).This project comprises of a package named "algokit" which contains several algorithms based on the category of searching, sorting, dynamic programming, tree traversals and swapping. Keeping in mind that different algorithms from the same category have its own benefit in time and space complexity, This project covers almost all the algorithms known and available from each category. This would give the user several options to choose the right algorithm for its code.An user just requires to import the package named AlgoKit and call the functions inside it for a smooth programming experience. One of the prime objectives of this project is to build a kit that serves the purpose of reducing the number of lines of code and also reduce the time taken to run the same code elsewhere. It is platform independent and can be used in any open source Java development environment.

Abstract The kinetics of featured interactions (KOFFI) database is a novel tool and resource for binding kinetics data from biomolecular interactions. While binding kinetics data are abundant in literature, finding valuable information is a laborious task. We used text extraction methods to store binding rates (association, dissociation) as well as corresponding meta-information (e.g. methods, devices) in a novel database. To date, over 270 articles were manually curated and binding data on over 1705 interactions was collected and stored in the (KOFFI) database. Moreover, the KOFFI database application programming interface was implemented in Anabel (open-source software for the analysis of binding interactions), enabling users to directly compare their own binding data analyses with related experiments described in the database.

AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) adalah kecerdasan buatan yang setara dengan kecerdasan manusia, sehingga semua pekerjaan intelektual manusia bisa digantikan oleh perangkat AGI. Nilai komersialnya akan sangat tinggi di masa yang akan datang. Devisa yang diperoleh dari ekspor perangkat AGI bisa mencapai 10 triliun dolar per tahun. Indonesia memiliki peluang mengembangkan teknologi AGI dan mengkomersialkannya, sebab sampai saat ini belum ada satu ahli pun yang mengetahui cara kerja otak manusia secara lengkap yang bisa dijabarkan ke dalam algoritma AGI. Jadi, Indonesia tidak ketinggalan. Berdasarkan perkiraan paling optimis, AGI akan tercipta pada tahun 2029. Bila Indonesia menganggarkan dana untuk penelitian dan pengembangan AGI sebesar Rp 90 miliar total untuk 10 tahun, ada kemungkinan Indonesia berhasil menciptakan AGI. Biaya ini relatif kecil sebab strateginya adalah memanfaatkan sebanyak mungkin teknologi yang sudah dipublikasikan baik berupa open source maupun API (Application Programming Interface), dan menjadwalkan eksperimen sesuai dengan penurunan harga perangkat keras. Dalam makalah ini penulis mengusulkan Model Kecerdasan Berbasis Konsep atau CBIM (Concept Based Intelligence Model), yang dapat digunakan untuk menciptakan AGI. Model ini menggunakan pendekatan berdasarkan cara kerja otak manusia bukan hanya dari segi struktural otak melainkan juga pembelajaran dan perkembangannya secara evolusi. Secara teori, model ini masuk akal (plausible) karena bisa memberikan jawaban yang memuaskan terhadap masalah-masalah utama dalam menciptakan AGI. Namun, model ini hanya terbukti benar setelah dilakukan pengembangan. Karena kompleksitasnya dalam tingkat detail, diperkirakan butuh waktu 10 tahun untuk menyelesaikan pengembangannya, dimana targetnya adalah mendidik AGI sampai tingkat sarjana.  Keberhasilan pengembangan AGI memiliki nilai yang sangat strategis. Sebagaimana diilustrasikan dalam makalah ini, AGI bisa dimanfaatkan untuk mencerdaskan kehidupan bangsa, sesuai amanah UUD 45. Kemajuan akan mengalami percepatan di segala bidang termasuk di bidang ekonomi, kesehatan, pendidikan, budaya, sains, teknologi, dan militer, sehingga Indonesia akan menjadi negara termaju. Mengingat nilai strategisnya, sebaiknya pemerintah segera memulai proyek AGI.
