Through checking the relationship between
WHATs and HOWs, the matrix relationship
between CRs and ECs were determined.
Subsequently, data mining was undertaken, using a
time series-based data mining cycle, to mine the
weights and determine the trend of each CR for the
next period.
According to the data mining cycle, the
predicted weights of CRs in the next period (period
5) would be estimated as shown in Table 5. As
shown, the weight of CR1 in the period 5 is 6.2;
thus, these predicted weights for the CRs were
chosen for the next stage of processing.
