A Model for Accurate Prediction in GeoRSS Data Using Naive Bayes Classifier

With new technologies emerging in collecting real-time data especially in earth sciences, the amount of data in terms of capacity and volume is growing rapidly. However, extracting relevant and useful knowledge from that data is vital. In addition, predicting an event depending on the set of features is equally important. One such method for predicting outcome from data is Naive Bayes Classifier. In this paper, Naive Bayes Classifier is applied on earthquake data which is available as RSS feed otherwise called as GeoRSS data. The GeoRSS can be mapped onto any GIS software for determining the area of interest. However, if the data is dense identifying a particular area of interest could be very cumbersome. Hence, there is a need for an efficient classifier to identify specific areas of interest from GeoRSS data. This paper proposes an efficient model using Naive Bayes Classifier to predict the outcome in GeoRSS data. It is proved that applying Naive Bayes Classifier on a data set like GeoRSS, gave better accuracy for identifying an exact location of the earthquake with specific magnitude
