In a study to systematically preserve the Malaysian folktales as one of Malaysia’s intangible cultural heritage, a Malaysian Folktale Classification System (MFCS) is proposed to be developed as encouraged by UNESCO. Such a classification system is currently absent in Malaysia. In order to develop a comprehensive classification system, three folktale units are integrated and utilized: function, motif, and type. The use of the three folktale units ensures that the MFCS covers two important facets of folktale: structure and content. The integration of the classification system warrants a complicated classification process. Therefore, a conceptual model, which is central to this article, is constructed as a visual guide to assist the classification process. It illustrates a flow of analysis and all components required to classify namely the three folktale units and their guiding factors, and a primary classification method. A pictorial representation method is utilized to construct the conceptual model. With the conceptual model constructed, it is expected that the analysis of the Malaysian folktales toward the development of the MFCS becomes apparent and guided.

Imaging spectroscopy technique was introduced in the cultural heritage field in the 1990s, when a multi-spectral imaging system based on a Vidicon camera was used to identify and map pigments in paintings. Since then, with continuous improvements in imaging technology, the quality of spectroscopic information in the acquired imaging data has greatly increased. Moreover, with the progressive transition from multispectral to hyperspectral imaging techniques, numerous new applicative perspectives have become possible, ranging from non-invasive monitoring to high-quality documentation, such as mapping and characterization of polychrome and multi-material surfaces of cultural properties. This article provides a brief overview of recent developments in the rapidly evolving applications of hyperspectral imaging in this field. The fundamentals of the various strategies, that have been developed for applying this technique to different types of artworks are discussed, together with some examples of recent applications.

There are various types of batik in Indonesia. One of them is Rifa’iyah batik produced by Rifa’iyah community in Kalipucang Wetan, Batang, Central Java. It gets the strong influence of Islam. It is classical batik since the motifs persist from one generation to another generation. This research focuses on the preservation of batik as the cultural identity of Rifa’iyah community. By using the paradigm of constructivism, cultural identity theory, and methods of phenomenology, the researcher intends to understand the preservation effort of batik Rifa’iyah. Data were collected based on observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation study. Data analysis was done by coding system development technique. This study found that members of the batik Rifa’iyah community still admit batik as their cultural identity. But nowadays young batik artists have increasingly reduced, so it is feared that no one will preserve batik Rifa’iyah in the future. Various efforts to maintain it among others are by forming Rifa’iyah batik maker community serving as coordinating institution, organizing batik workshop for batik makers, attending batik exhibition, opening free batik class for elementary students, and motivating teenagers to appreciate batik as their cultural heritage.

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is one of diabetes complications that affects our eyes. Hard Exudate (HE) are known to be the early signs of DR that potentially lead to blindness. Detection of DR automatically is a complicated job since the size of HE is very small. Besides, our community nowadays lack awareness on diabetic where they do not know that diabetes can affect eyes and lead to blindness if regular check-up is not performed. Hence, automated detection of HE known as Eye Retinal Imaging System (EyRis) was created to focus on detecting the HE based on fundus image. The purpose of this system development is for early detection of the symptoms based on retina images captured using fundus camera. Through the captured retina image, we can clearly detect the symptoms that lead to DR. In this study, proposed Watershed segmentation method for detecting HE in fundus images. Top-Hat and Bottom-Hat were use as enhancement technique to improve the quality of the image. This method was tested on 15 retinal images from the Universiti Sains Malaysia Hospital (HUSM) at three different stages: Normal, NPDR, and PDR. Ten of these images have abnormalities, while the rest are normal retinal images. The evaluation of the segmentation images would be compared by Sensitivity, F-score and accuracy based on medical expert's hand drawn ground truth. The results achieve accuracy 0.96 percent with 0.99 percent sensitivity for retinal images.
