Observation information processing apparatus, non-transitory computer-readable recording medium, and observation information processing method

摘要

An observation information processing apparatus calculates, for each mesh, a support and a confidence. The observation information processing apparatus generates an adjacent mesh set by merging adjacent ones of the meshes. The observation information processing apparatus calculates, based on a support and a confidence of each mesh included in the adjacent mesh set, a confidence for each adjacent mesh, and sets the smallest one of the confidences calculated as a new confidence threshold value. The observation information processing apparatus detects and excludes meshes to be excluded from meshes included in the adjacent mesh set, based on the confidences and supports of the meshes included in the adjacent mesh set and the confidence threshold value.

1. An observation information processing apparatus, comprising:
a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor executes a process comprising: calculating, for each mesh, a support that is a number of records for which a condition part of an association rule becomes true in records included in a mesh, based on meshes each associated with records each including observation information having information identifying a geographical position and an event that occurs at the geographical position, the information being associated with the event; calculating, for each mesh, a confidence that is a ratio of records for which a conclusion part of the association rule also becomes true, to the records for which the condition part becomes true; generating an adjacent mesh set by merging adjacent ones of the meshes; calculating a confidence for each adjacent mesh based on the support and confidence of each mesh included in the adjacent mesh set; setting the smallest one of the confidences calculated as a new confidence threshold value; calculating, for each mesh in the adjacent mesh, a first value by multiplying the support and the confidence; calculating, for each mesh, in the adjacent mesh, a second value by dividing the first value by a minimum support among the supports of the meshes; excluding first meshes included in the adjacent mesh set from the adjacent mesh set, the first meshes having the second value which is smaller than the confidence threshold value; and repeatedly executing each process.
