Contextual Motivation In Physical Activity By Means Of Association Rule Mining, Sugam Sharma, Udoyara Sunday Tim, Marinelle Payton, Hari Cohly, Shashi Gadia, Johnny Wong, Sudharshanam Karakala Jun 2017

Contextual Motivation In Physical Activity By Means Of Association Rule Mining, Sugam Sharma, Udoyara Sunday Tim, Marinelle Payton, Hari Cohly, Shashi Gadia, Johnny Wong, Sudharshanam Karakala

Sugam Sharma

The primary thrust of this work is to demonstrate the applicability of association rule mining in public health domain, focusing on physical activity and exercising. In this paper, the concept of association rule mining is shown assisting to promote the physical exercise as regular human activity. Specifically, similar to the prototypical example of association rule mining, market basket analysis, our proposed novel approach considers two events – exercise (sporadic) and sleep (regular) as the two items of the frequent set; and associating the former, exercise event, with latter, the daily occurring activity sleep at night, helps strengthening the frequency of …

Discovering The Relationships Between Yarn And Fabric Properties Using Association Rule Mining, Peli̇n Yildirim, Derya Bi̇rant, Tuba Alpyildiz Jan 2017

Discovering The Relationships Between Yarn And Fabric Properties Using Association Rule Mining, Peli̇n Yildirim, Derya Bi̇rant, Tuba Alpyildiz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Investigation of the effects of yarn parameters on fabric quality and finding important parameters to achieve desired fabric properties are important issues for the design process with the aim to meet the needs of the textile industry and the consumer for complex and specific requirements of functionality. Despite many statistical and mathematical studies that predict and reveal specific properties of utilized yarn and fabric materials, a number of challenges continue to exist when evaluated in many perspectives, such as discovering complex relationships among material properties in data. Data mining plays an important role in discovering hidden patterns from fabric data …
