“…For example, if a script related to punctuation marks, like symbols for the beginning of a word, is found, then it is skipped. The necessary preparation of the sequence of syllables has been previously discussed in [12]. After obtaining the syllables that are ready to be processed into words, the syllables are then stored in a text file to become input data to the implementation of the proposed algorithms.…”

“…In most of the classic Javanese manuscripts, many symbols stand as punctuation marks, including "adeg-adeg" for the beginning of a sentence, "pada lungsi" as a full stop, "pada lingsa" as a comma, and "pada" as a symbol marking the beginning, middle, or end of the letters or lyrics of songs. The complete process of segmenting and recognizing Javanese scripts and these punctuation symbols has been previously discussed by Widiarti et al [12]. Among those symbols, however, there is no space symbol that separates words.…”

Many Javanese manuscripts in Indonesia are stored in museums and libraries. Most of these manuscripts were written using local scripts that are rarely used in everyday life, and hence a software application that can help and improve the reading of these manuscripts is valuable. An essential step in automatic manuscript image transliteration is post-processing, which involves editing and concatenating syllables into words. The main problem of post-processing is that there exists no symbol for space between words in a sentence, which is called the scriptio-continua problem. This paper proposes methods based on the backtracking algorithm to solve the scriptio continua in the post-processing step of Javanese manuscript image transliteration. The proposed methods use a depth-first search in seeking relevant candidate words to determine whether to merge a new syllable or not. The results of the proposed methods to concatenate 17,687 syllables from the Hamong Tani book using a dictionary containing 49,801 words are found to be satisfactory in terms of computation and accuracy. The accuracy of the implemented greedy and brute-force methods is both 81.64%. However, the greedy-based method is more efficient and has a better performance than the brute-force method.

“…For example, several panedhak of SBS manuscript 25 A are Br 97, KBG 120, and S 29. These three authors successfully rewrote the script well because they did not change the metrum or macapat order (Widiati et al, 2018).…”

This study aimed to reveal the historical construction of cultural politics of Javanese authority through Serat Baron Sakendher (SBS) in the 19 th century. SBS manuscript was used as a means of negotiation by the Javanese King on the colonial power resistance that was politically absolute in controlling Java. Stories of Baron Sakendher were presented in the Javanese domain and became a part of Babad Tanah Jawi-which was named the centre of Javanese authority hegemony. Historically, Baron Sakendher was a stranger in the contestation of Javanese figures. This study applied the historical philology theory and Gramsci's hegemony. Text analyses were done from the point of view of the author, panedhak (rewriter), the location where the manuscript was created, and the author(s) who initiated the manuscript. The results point out that the post-war 1830 Javanese SBS script has an essential position concerning the cultural politics of Javanese rulers and colonialism. The concept of mangku, in a spiritual sense, is used as a strategy to conquer without hostility and war. The king's order wrote the SBS script with the approval of the Dutch Resident. The songs and performances of traditional shadow puppetry by Baron Sakendher created a common sense for the Colonial position in Java. Amid babad (Javanese historical texts), the SBS script was used to reduce conflict through a cultural approach that could strengthen the king's authority over the Javanese people. It was also beneficial for political negotiations with the Dutch.
