Information gain using decision trees performed best, providing predictions ranging from 96%. Similarity based learning involved clustering assets with similar failure behaviors. Error based learning showed how the motor system adapts movements based on errors and use. Probability based learning used naive Bayes classification with conditional probabilities.

    What is business problem?

    Every company faces problems in running various departments and consistently enforcing their policies.
    That is why they rely on specialists in their HR departments to keep staff aligned with organizational
    goals, whether it means addressing personal conflicts or putting together attractive benefits packages.
    HR specialists cover many different areas of a company’s operations. Here are some common challenges
    faced by human resource managers today.

    Machine Learning Algorithms

    To get a prediction, four machine learning algorithms were used. Information Gain, Similarity Based,
    Probability Based and Error based.

    What is Information based learning


    Decision Trees are an important type of algorithm for predictive modeling machine learning.
    The representation of the decision tree model is a binary tree. This is your binary tree from algorithms
    and data structures, nothing too fancy. Each node represents a single input variable (x) and a split point
    on that variable (assuming the variable is numeric).

    What is similarity based learning?

    The optimization of the number of maintenance strategies based on reliability field data becomes a
    challenging issue when the number of managed assets is very large (e.g., millions). The proper use and
    exploitation of the associated reliability (big) data calls for advanced data mining techniques (Meeker &
    Hong, 2014). In this context, this work proposes a clustering algorithm for grouping assets based on their
    reliability distributions: clusters of assets with similar failure behavior will, then, undergo the same
    preventive maintenance optimal schedule. Indeed, this approach opens to the possibility of optimizing
    the maintenance strategy specifically for all assets belonging to a same cluster. The proposed approach
    has been applied to reliability data collected for devices of the Italian railway system. Before the study
    presented in this paper, the grouping of the assets (for maintenance strategies planning) was only based
    on some technical information (such as rail type, switch point machine model, etc.) and/or geographic
    localization, rather than accounting for their common reliability features, that is, indeed the key novelty
    of the here proposed approach. Although the case study is derived from a real industrial application,
    due to the non-disclosure agreement with the industrial partner, the data shown in this paper have
    been opportunely re-scaled and modified.

    What is error based learning?

    Human motor behavior is constantly adapted through the process of error-based learning. When the
    motor system encounters an error, its estimate about the body and environment will change, and the
    next movement will be immediately modified to counteract the underlying perturbation. Here, we show
    that a second mechanism, use-dependent learning, simultaneously changes movements to become
    more similar to the last movement. In three experiments, participants made reaching movements
    toward a horizontally elongated target, such that errors in the initial movement direction did not have
    to be corrected. Along this task-redundant dimension, we were able to induce use-dependent learning
    by passively guiding movements in a direction angled by 8° from the previous direction. In a second
    study, we show that error-based and use-dependent learning can change motor behavior
    simultaneously in opposing directions by physically constraining the direction of active movements.
    After removal of the constraint, participants briefly exhibit an error-based aftereffect against the
    direction of the constraint, followed by a longer-lasting use-dependent aftereffect in the direction of the
    constraint. In the third experiment, we show that these two learning mechanisms together determine
    the solution the motor system adopts when learning a motor task.

    What is probability based learning?

    Naive Bayes is a simple but surprisingly powerful algorithm for predictive modeling.
    The model is comprised of two types of probabilities that can be calculated directly from your training
    data: 1) The probability of each class; and 2) The conditional probability for each class given each x
    value. Once calculated, the probability model can be used to make predictions for new data using Bayes
    Theorem
    Conclusion

    Out of all four algorithms applied, Decision Tree of Information Gain gave the predictions ranging 96%.
    Hence, this performed the best with the dataset of the above mentioned business problem.
