Data Mining, also known as knowledge discovery in databases, has been recognized as a promising new area for database research. Mining frequent item sets in transactional databases, binary transaction tables, time series databases and many other kinds of databases have been an active research topic over the past few years. Frequent access pattern is a special case of sequential pattern in an application database which helps to make effective decisions in the respective problem domain.
Given a large database of book transactions in the library, where each transaction consists of book-id, name of the book, author, and other related fields, the problem is to mine the frequent access patterns of the user from the library databases. The outcome of the findings will help the management to take effective steps that will cater the needs of the user.
Apriori and FP-growth algorithms can mine the complete sets of frequent item sets. These two algorithms were implemented and the performance of the algorithms was studied. The result shows that FP-growth algorithm performs well compared to Apriori.

The government of Tamil Nadu constituted a Committee on Agricultural Labourers in 1997 to analyze the nature extent of socio-economic problems faced by the agricultural labourers in Tamil Nadu and to suggest the ways and means of improving their levels of living. The Committee was assisted by the representatives of the trade union of agricultural labourers, members of the farmers association and academians . The report was submitted to the government of Tamil Nadu in 1998. The Committee has made several recommendations for the overall development of the agricultural labourers. The report was well received by the agricultural labourers' trade union andd NGOs and they demanded that the government should accept the recommendations of the committee's report. They also conducted several struggles for implementation of the committee's report. The government of Tamil Nadu issued an order in 2001 for the establishment of the "Tamil Nadu agricultural labourers social security tutd welfare scheme". The immediate cause for the estublishment of this welfare board is due to the fact tha1 the agricultural labourers trade unions and NGOs were fighting for the implementation of the recommendations of the Kolappon Committee report on agricultural labourers. The objectives of the paprr are: I) to examine the report on the committee on agricultural labourers and 2) to analyse the nature and the functions of the agricultural labourers social security and welfare scheme.- Mining the Contact Lens Adhering Bacteria through Machine Learning and Clinical Analysis

Objectives: Even when studies report most of the Contact Lens (CLs) wearers possess improved vision, there are some potential risks with the development of microbial keratitis. This is in turn creates research issue under public health concern. Methods/Analysis: The methodology of the work determines the culture sensitivity of the recovered isolates from three different CLs users: Daily disposable lens, monthly disposable lens and yearly disposable lens. Findings: Through the machine learning tool called Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (WEKA) and extensive clinical laboratory analysis, the study provides information on prevalent Contact Lens adhering bacteria involved in causing keratitis and examine microbial biofilm formation using Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM) analysis. The sample type of the lens with the bacterial infections were then statistically analyzed, so that the knowledge mined would aid the medical practitioners in the treatment of bacterial keratitis. Novelty/Improvement: The present study supports the treatment of bacterial keratitis associated with Contact Lens users to reduce or to prevent the adverse effects caused by bacterial pathogens.Keywords

Attribute or feature selection plays an important role in the process of data mining. In general the dataset contains more number of attributes. But in the process of effective classification not all attributes are relevant. Attribute selection is a technique used to extract the ranking of attributes. Therefore, this paper presents a comparative evaluation study of classification algorithms before and after attribute selection using Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (WEKA). The evaluation study concludes that the performance metrics of the classification algorithm, improves after performing attribute selection. This will reduce the work of processing irrelevant attributes.Keywords
