    Mining Frequent Itemsets Using Genetic Algorithm

    Full text link
    In general frequent itemsets are generated from large data sets by applying association rule mining algorithms like Apriori, Partition, Pincer-Search, Incremental, Border algorithm etc., which take too much computer time to compute all the frequent itemsets. By using Genetic Algorithm (GA) we can improve the scenario. The major advantage of using GA in the discovery of frequent itemsets is that they perform global search and its time complexity is less compared to other algorithms as the genetic algorithm is based on the greedy approach. The main aim of this paper is to find all the frequent itemsets from given data sets using genetic algorithm

    Training a Feed-forward Neural Network with Artificial Bee Colony Based Backpropagation Method

    Full text link
    Back-propagation algorithm is one of the most widely used and popular techniques to optimize the feed forward neural network training. Nature inspired meta-heuristic algorithms also provide derivative-free solution to optimize complex problem. Artificial bee colony algorithm is a nature inspired meta-heuristic algorithm, mimicking the foraging or food source searching behaviour of bees in a bee colony and this algorithm is implemented in several applications for an improved optimized outcome. The proposed method in this paper includes an improved artificial bee colony algorithm based back-propagation neural network training method for fast and improved convergence rate of the hybrid neural network learning method. The result is analysed with the genetic algorithm based back-propagation method, and it is another hybridized procedure of its kind. Analysis is performed over standard data sets, reflecting the light of efficiency of proposed method in terms of convergence speed and rate.Comment: 14 Pages, 11 figure

    Role of SHG Movement on Feminization of Living- A Grassroot Study on Economy of Sunderban

    Get PDF
    Feminization is an identity of women. A society is composed of two economic genders - man & woman. The flagship program of union government of India, Swarnajayanti Swarojgar Yojana has infected the community to be attached with the money earning procedures by linking with Self Help Groups (SHGs). Indian Sunderban is a totality of some islands; people who are residents of those lands are facing a lot of challenges and conflicts. Naturally the women are under threat of several types here so the study empirically wants to know if any change regarding livelihood is promoted on the region by the women or if any advantage if they are getting.

    Failure of intrauterine contraception in a multigravida lady with an undiagnosed uterus didelphys: a case report

    Get PDF
    Uterus didelphys remains one of the rarest uterine anomalies partly because; majority women experience no symptoms with an uneventful reproductive life. Despite the cost-effectiveness and efficacy paired with fewer side effects and convenience of using an intrauterine contraceptive device, it is most likely to prove futile in an unsuspected case of didelphic uterus resulting in an unintended pregnancy. Hence, intrauterine contraception is generally considered a contraindication in cases of uterine malformations. We present a case of a multigravida mother (G7 P3 L3 A3) with a history of three term vaginal deliveries, with an undiagnosed uterus didelphys, carrying a single live intrauterine pregnancy of approximately 6 weeks period of gestation, in the right uterine horn and a copper containing intrauterine contraceptive device in the left uterine horn, willing to undergo medical termination of pregnancy. A high index of suspicion, on the part of the gynaecologist as well as the radiologist, is required to investigate concurrent pregnancy with a history of an intrauterine contraceptive device insertion, in order to rule out rarer uterine malformations like uterus didelphys. Thorough history taking and clinical examination accompanied by improved imaging techniques should be performed at the time of first pregnancy in order to avoid an unsuitable placement of an intrauterine contraceptive device
