Correlation With Rapid Miner
Sarah is a regional sales manager for a nationwide supplier of fossil fuels for home heating.
Recent volatility in market prices for heating oil specifically, coupled with wide variability in the size of each order for home heating oil, has Sarah concerned.
She needs to understand what factors are related to heating oil usage, and how she might use the knowledge of such factors to better manage her inventory and anticipated demands.
Correlation is a statistical measure of how strong the relationships are between attributes in a dataset.
The dataset consists of;
Insulation
Temperature
Heating Oil
Number Of Occupants
Average Age
Home Size
Our Dataset
Applying Correlation Matrix
Correlation Results
All correlation coefficients between 0 and 1 represents Positive Correlations
While all coefficients between 0 and -1 are** Negative Correlations**
There is a positive correlation with Heating oil and Insulation Rating which means as the demand of heating oil rises so will insulation rating and vice versa.
There is a Negative Correlation between Temperature and Insulation rating.
Which means has temperature rises, insulation rating falls and vice versa.
Conclusion
The 2 most strongly correlated attributes in our data are; Heating oil and Average Age
Here are few actions Sarah can take in order to make her decisions
- Dropping the Number Of occupants attribute
- Investigate the role of home insulation
- Adding greater granularity in the dataset
- Adding additional attribute to the dataset
