AbstractCotton production is the main agricultural activity in India. More than 350.000 Indian families depend on cotton harvest. Since cotton rust disease was first reported in the country in 1983, these families have had to face severe consequences. Recently, machine learning approaches have built a dataset for monitoring cotton rust incidence that involves weather conditions and physic cotton properties. This background encouraged us to build a dataset for cotton rust detection in Colombian cottons through data mining process as Cross Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM). In this paper we define a proper data to generate accurate models; once the dataset is built, this is tested using classifiers as: KNN and Linear regression Trees By analyzing all these issues and problems like weather, temperature and several factors, there is no proper solution and technologies to overcome the situation faced by us. In India there are several ways to increase the economic growth in the field of agriculture. There are multiple ways to increase and improve the cotton yield and the quality of the cottons. Data mining also useful for predicting the cotton yield production.

INTRODUCTION

Six states with Karnataka in the lead are the major producers of cotton in the country. Karnataka with a production of 3.04 lakh tones from an area of 7.94 lakh hectares followed by Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar, Orissa and Tamil Nadu are major cotton producing states of India. In India, Cotton cultivation occupies about 1.48 M Ha area with average yield

    1. MT/acre. Cotton production follows a systemic weather risk as about 80 per cent of the area is under rain- fed production. In terms of productivity, Bihar leads with 1402 kg/ha followed by Tamil Nadu with 1328.7 kg, although both the states have less than 25000 hectares under the cotton which is mostly irrigated. The average productivity at all India level was 900 kg/ha depending on the climatic conditions and irrigation, which are critical factors for high yields.

      This work talks about K-Nearest Neighbor Algorithm and Linear Regression this algorithm does not have any learning phase, because every time a classification is performed it uses a training set. The assumption behind the k-nearest neighbor algorithm is that a similar classification is produced by similar samples. The similar known samples used for assigning a

      classification to an unknown sample are described by the parameter K.

      The comparison for the results obtained by KNN Algorithm is given using Linear Regression Algorithm. Linear Regression is a linear approach for modelling the relationship between a scalar dependent variable y and one or more explanatory variables (or independent variables) denoted x.

MySQL server is used as a backend.

        1. Algorithms

          The Algorithms are the process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem solving operations and are also used in the prediction process.

          1. K- Nearest neighbour(KNN) algorithm

            The K-nearest neighbor algorithm is a method for classifying objects based on closest training examples in the feature space. With previously labeled samples as the training set S, the KNN algorithm constructs a local sub region R(x) d of the input space, which is situated at the estimation point x. The predicting region R(x) contains the closest training points to x, which is written as follows:

            R(x) = {xD (x, x) d (k)},

            For a given observation x, the decision g(x) is formulated byevaluating the values of k[y] and selecting the class that hasthe highest k[y] value g(x)={1,1,k[y=1]k[y=1],k[y=1]k[y=1].

            Thus, the decision that maximizes the associated posterior probability is employed in the KNN algorithm.

          2. Linear Regression Algorithm

        Linear regression is a linear approach to modeling the relationship between a scalar response (or dependent variable) and one or more explanatory variables (or independent variables). The case of one explanatory variable is called simple linear regression. For more than one explanatory variable, the process is called multiple Linear Regression. In linear regression, the relationships are modeled using linear predictor functions whose unknown model parameters are estimated from the data. Such models are called linear models. Most commonly, the conditional mean of the response given the values of the explanatory variables (or predictors) is assumed to be an affine function of those values; less commonly, the conditional median or some other quintile is used.

        Where T denotes the transpose, so that xiT is the inner product between vectors xi and .

        Often these n equations are stacked together and written in matrix notation aswhere

        Y is a vector of observed values of the variable called the regressand, endogenous variable, response variable, measured variable, criterion variable, or dependent variable

        X may be seen as a matrix of row-vectors Xi, or of n- dimensional column-vectors Xj.
