Wolker, Waena, Jayapura, 99358, Papua, Indonesia Phone/Fax.: +62-967-585470; E-mail: [email protected] DOI: 10.31957/plj.v3i2.786 Abstract: According to Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 56 of 2015 concerning Code and Data of Administrative Area, it is mentioned that Papua is one of 34 provinces in Indonesia with the highest number of villages by 5,419 villages, 110 urban villages, and 558 sub-districts scattered in 28 regencies and 1 city. The high number of villages in a regency/city area has an effect on the amount of village funds allocated by the Central or Provincial Governments for each district/city, thus affecting the amount of regency/city APBD. Village Fund Allocation is a manifestation of the fulfillment of the right for the village to implement the principle of autonomy for the village to grow and develop following the growth of the village itself, based on diversity, participation, original autonomy, democratization, and community empowerment. However, the increasing number of village formation burdened the government budget to finance the formation of new villages, so that the village formation had a significant and positive effect on the amount of regional finance, especially regency/city and provincial APBD. For example, in the 2016 fiscal year, Tolikara Regency had a total of 541 villages spreading across 46 districts and received the largest village fund allocation of Rp320.04 billion.

  • Modeling Percentage of Poor People in Indonesia Using Kernel and Fourier Series Mixed Estimator in Nonparametric Regression
    REVISTA INVESTIGACION OPERACIONAL VOL. 40, NO. 4, 538-550, 2019 MODELING PERCENTAGE OF POOR PEOPLE IN INDONESIA USING KERNEL AND FOURIER SERIES MIXED ESTIMATOR IN NONPARAMETRIC REGRESSION I Nyoman Budiantara, Vita Ratnasari, Madu Ratna, Wahyu Wibowo, Ngizatul Afifah, Dyah Putri Rahmawati and Made Ayu Dwi Octavanny1 Department of Statistics, Faculty of Mathematics, Computation and Data Sciences. Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS), Surabaya, 60111, Indonesia ABSTRACT Poverty is a very serious problem and often faced by the countries in the world, especially developing countries. The percentage of poor people in Indonesia reached 11.47 percent in 2013. The seven provinces with the highest poverty in Indonesia are Papua, West Papua, East Nusa Tenggara, Maluku, Gorontalo, Bengkulu and Aceh. This problem is modeled using mixed nonparametric regression of Kernel and Fourier Series. The response variable of this model is percentage of poor people (y), the predictor variables that follow Kernel regression curve are Mean of Years Schooling or MYS (v1) and Literacy Rate or LR (v2), whereas the predictor variable that follow the Fourier Series regression curve are Unemployment Rate or UR (t1). This modeling produces R2 = 62.78%. KEYWORDS: Fourier Series, Kernel, Mixed Nonparametric Regression, Percentage of Poor People. MSC: 37M10 1. INTRODUCTION Nonparametric regression is one of the regression analysis that has high flexibility. In this method, data is expected to find its own form of regression curve estimation without being influenced by the subjectivity of the researcher [1]. There are many types of estimators in nonparametric regression models such as Kernel, Spline, Local Polynomial, Wavelet and Fourier Series. Studies on Kernel estimator have been carried out by researchers such as Okumura and Naito [2], Yao [3], Kayri and Zirhlioglu [4], Cheng, Paige, Sun and Yan [5], and Fernandes, Budiantara, Otok and Suhartono, [6].
