Mining Frequent Patterns and Associations from the Smart meters using Bayesian Networks

In today's world migration of people from rural areas to urban areas is quite common. Health care services are one of the most challenging aspect that is must require to the people with abnormal health. Advancements in the technologies lead to build the smart homes, which contains various sensor or smart meter devices to automate the process of other electronic device. Additionally these smart meters can be able to capture the daily activities of the patients and also monitor the health conditions of the patients by mining the frequent patterns and association rules generated from the smart meters. In this work we proposed a model that is able to monitor the activities of the patients in home and can send the daily activities to the corresponding doctor. We can extract the frequent patterns and association rules from the log data and can predict the health conditions of the patients and can give the suggestions according to the prediction. Our work is divided in to three stages. Firstly, we used to record the daily activities of the patient using a specific time period at three regular intervals. Secondly we applied the frequent pattern growth for extracting the association rules from the log file. Finally, we applied kmeans clustering for the input and applied Bayesian network model to predict the health behavior of the patient and precautions will be given accordingly.
