Abstract:
The change of weather factors will lead to great changes in users' electricity consumption behaviors. In order to discover the associations between users' electricity consumption behavior and weather factors, and meet the needs of efficient mining of massive data, in this paper a parallel association rule mining method is presented based on MapReduce. Firstly, to convert electricity data into the form suitable for association rule mining, the density-based K-means method is implemented to discretize the electricity consumption data, in which the parallel calculation method of sample density is presented. Then the cluster results are combined with the weather data. Next, the parallel frequent itemset mining method and association rule mining method are designed and implemented based on Apriori. In the frequent itemset mining MapReduce job the Combiner function is added and implemented. The local support threshold is set in the Combiner implementation to filter out some candidate itemsets, thereby reducing the time to transmit data among slave nodes. Finally, experiments on a Hadoop cluster are conducted. The experimental results validate availability and scalability of the proposed method.

Energy Diagrams - II
The point in the energy diagram at which the system’s potential energy is the lowest is known as the local minima. The system tends to stay in this position indefinitely unless acted upon by a net force. The slope of the potential energy diagram at the local minima is zero, indicating that zero net force is acting on the system. The...

Take the example of a skater on a parabolic ramp. The potential energy at different points along the ramp will be proportional to the height of the ramp, which varies quadratically with the horizontal position on the ramp. As the skater moves down the ramp from the highest position,...
