Frequent pattern mining on big data using Apriori algorithm

Frequent Pattern Mining is one of the most important tasks to extract meaningful and useful information from raw data. This task aims to extract item-sets that represent any type of homogeneity and regularity in data. Although many efficient algorithms have been developed in this regard, the growing interest in data has caused the performance of existing pattern mining techniques to be dropped. The goal of this paper is to propose new efficient pattern mining algorithms to work in big data. The existing pattern mining algorithms are based on homogeneity and regularity of data. With the dramatic increase on the scale of datasets collected and stored with cloud services in recent years, it takes more computation power for mining process in the cloud. Amount of work also transferred the approximate mining computation into the exact computation, where such methods not improve the accuracy also not enhance the efficiency. The proposed algorithm uses Hadoop distributed file server for frequent pattern mining. The Hadoop distributed file server improves the performance of the system. The Iterative apriori algorithm can be used to extract the frequent pattern from the dataset. In this approach, candidate itemsets are extracted from the initial dataset. The candidate itemsets are generated from the previous iteration. The support count is calculated for each candidate itemset. The support value is the frequency of items. The confidence value should be calculated for finding the dependency between itemsets. The threshold value is calculated and based on this value pruning is performed.

ExtJs is a framework available in a scripting language that is Javascript and is used for constructing useful web applications. It uses the tools and techniques such as Ajax, DHTML, and DOM for scripting. ExtJs includes a set of GUI-based form widgets for use within web applications. Ext JS interacts with jQuery and Prototype. Microsoft Silverlight is a technology that is used in developing internet applications which can be thought similarly as Adobe Flash. Quality is one of the most critical factors which govern the business growth of any company. Software Testing is a fundamental technique that is used to guarantee the quality of the product by finding the bugs in the application. In this growing and competitive market timely delivery of a quality product plays an important role for an organization to be rated high. Therefore this makes the software testing a discipline and a time-consuming task as the applications are getting complex in nature day by day. Test automation gained importance in Industry as it can be used to avoid this situation and helps in improving the quality of the software at the expenditure of optimum cost and time demands continuous and systematic growth. The intent of this paper is to show how MVC with ExtJS has changed the patterns of web development. In this paper, we discuss MVC user interface, enhancements, performance, syntax and productive features which includes pre-built widgets, database migrations and tools for web APIs, asynchronous support and uniform responsive designs. A Test Automation Framework is a structure where several tools and concepts are made to work together to provide a platform for automating the testing process. The RESTful web services are also known as REST API is a Hybrid framework that incorporates both Keyword-Driven as well as the Data-Driven framework, which works like a plug and play template. This Hybrid framework provides a very fast way of creating test automation and also helps users who have less programming knowledge to perform automation easily.

Finite element analysis of disc brakes for thermal effect

Disc brakes are used to stop or slow down the rotation of the wheel. In this paper, there is discussion regarding heat distribution on the disc brake during the phenomena of braking. Due to change from kinetic energy to mechanical energy heat is been distributed on the disc brake. The reason for Energy change during braking process is friction between the surface of the disc and disc pad. As a result of friction, the temperature rises extremely high. The aim of this study is to perform finite element analysis of disc brake and analyze the thermal effect through examining heat distribution on disc brake using 3-dimensional model. After the analysis, it has been obtained that due to friction between disc pad and disc rotor the temperature rises. Obtained results are used for identifying the effect of heat distribution during the braking process.

Replacement of two wheeler suspension system with compliant mechanism

In this paper, an attempt is made to replace the existing spring-damper suspension system of a two-wheeler by the compliant mechanism. Suspension details of Hero Igniter bike were obtained and analysis of spring was made for static and total deflection. The initial topology of compliant mechanism was obtained through topology optimization in ANSYS. Final topology along with the shape and size of members of compliant mechanism were obtained through trial and error method. Modal and harmonic analysis of obtained compliant mechanism was done to get frequency response curve which subsequently used for calculation of equivalent damping coefficient of the compliant mechanism. Using the equation of force transmissibility, the force transmitted at various frequency ratios was calculated with the help of equivalent damping coefficient obtained for the compliant mechanism. These values of force transmission were then compared with the corresponding values of the spring-damper suspension system. The force transmission values of compliant mechanism were found to be less than the spring damper suspension system leading to the conclusion that the existing suspension system can well be replaced with the complaint mechanism.

Role of computed tomographic study in diagnosis of intracranial granulomatous lesions with clinical correlation

Background: The evaluation of intracranial granulomatous lesions with emphasis particularly on tuberculoma and neurocystecercosis. Intracranial granulomatous lesions especially tuberculosis and neurocysticercosis are potentially lethal diseases and therefore prompt diagnosis and treatment are imperative. Cysticercosis of the brain is a disease entity that is easily demonstrable by CT and is confined to the endemic areas in the majority of cases Aim: To identify and the role of computed tomography (CT) in diagnosing intracranial granulomatous lesions and to correlate the findings with clinical health care. Materials and methods: This study was done at Ganesh Shankar Vidyarthi Medical (GSVM) College, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India during the period 2002 to 2003. The patients admitted with seizures were included after considering the exclusion of metabolic causes and infective causes. 50 cases of documented antecedent history suggestive of raised intracranial tension and seizure (focal or generalized) were evaluated and referred for CT scanning from outpatients department and in patients department in Lala Lajpat Rai (LLR) and associated hospitals and GSVM College, Kanpur, India. Results: We prospectively noted in our study that more than half of the patients with chronic granulomatous lesions presented with raised intracranial tensions. The seizure was one of the commonest presenting complaints in patients with neurocysticercosis diagnosis. A presumptive diagnosis of tuberculoma and neurocysticercosisis was based on clinical and other ancillary criteria. Associated family history and extracerebral tuberculosis are the important criteria for a presumptive diagnosis of tuberculoma. Solitary lesions were more frequent CT finding in both tuberculoma and neurocysticercosis. Majority of tuberculomas and neurocysticercosis observed were supratentorial in location, regardless of their clinical presentation. Lesions were isodense or hyperdense on plain CT scan showed peripheral enhancement with intravenous contrast injection. The lobulated masses represent coalesced small disc and rings forming a large tuberculoma. Conclusion: In our study, we have tried to evaluate intracranial granulomatous lesions with emphasis particularly on tuberculoma and neurocystecercosis.
