DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR TRACKING AND PREDICTING UNEMPLOYMENT AND EMPLOYMENT RATE IN NIGERIA USING DATA MINING TECHNIQUES
ABSTRACT
Demographic Information System is the sets of methods that allow us to measure the dimensions and dynamics of populations. Computerized based spec analysis system estimates are often considered a reliable standard for judging the accuracy of the census information gathered at any time. The aim of the study is to design and implement a Demographic Information System for Tracking and Predicting Unemployment and Employment Rate in National Population Commission using Data Mining Techniques. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out as follows to develop an application software that will provide essential information for government decision making and eliminate gaze work in population census. The motivation that led to the implementation of the proposed system is as a result of the difficulties encountered in keeping demographic data and information, Miscalculation of demographic data/information and time wasted in searching for a given demographic data/information on packed files. The methodology adopted in this study is the object oriented analysis and design methodology (OOADM) which is a technical approach for analyzing and designing an application or system by applying object throughout the software development process. The programming language used is HTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT, PHP, SQL and JQUERY. The reason why web programming languages was used is because, it is platform independent and it is a web based application. This project will be of benefit to the National Population Commission. Huge files kept in the offices will no longer be there again because information will be stored on the computer with the help of the database program. The expected result is a Demographic Information System that will ease the work associated with manual method analyzing demographic data and eliminate the error involved with the manual method analyzing demographic information.
CHAPTER ONE
1.1 Introduction
Demographic Information System includes the sets of methods that allow us to measure the dimensions and dynamics of populations. These methods have primarily been developed to study human populations, but are extended to a variety of areas where researchers want to know how populations of social actors can change across time through processes of birth, death, and migration. In the context of human biological populations demographic analysis uses administrative records to develop an independent estimate of the population. Computerized based spec analysis system estimates are often considered a reliable standard for judging the accuracy of the census information gathered at any time.
As a prelude to other parts of this study, this chapter will discuss the background upon which this study was initiated, the statement of problems that led to this study, the Aim and Objectives of the study. Others are Significance of the study, Scope of work, Limitations of the Study and Definition of technical terms.
1.2 Background of Study
According to Preston (2000), Demography Measuring and Modeling Population Processes, demography is the statistical and mathematical study of the size, composition, and spatial distribution of human populations, and how these features change over time. Data is obtained from a census of the population and from registries-records of events like birth, deaths, migrations, marriages, divorces, diseases, and employment. To do this, there needs to be an understanding of how they are calculated and the questions they answer which is included in these four concepts: population change, standardization of population numbers, the demographic bookkeeping equation, and population composition.
Population change is analyzed by measuring the change between one population sizes to another. Global population continues to rise, which makes population change an essential component to demographics. This is calculated by taking one population size minus the population size in an earlier census. The best way of measuring population change is using the intercensal percentage change. The intercensal percentage change is the absolute change in population between the censuses divided by the population size in the earlier census. Next, multiply this by 100 to receive a percentage. When this statistic is achieved, the population growth between two or more nations that differ in size can be accurately measured and examined.
For there to be a significant comparison, numbers must be altered for the size of the population that is under study. For example, the fertility rate is calculated as the ratio of the number of births to women of childbearing and to the total number of women in this age range (multiplied by 1000). If these adjustments were not made, we would not know whether a nation with a higher rate of births or deaths has a population with more women of childbearing age or more births per eligible woman.
Within the category of standardization, there are two major approaches: direct standardization and indirect standardization. Direct standardization is able to be used when the population being studied is large enough for age-specific rate are stable. Indirect standardization is used when a population is small enough that the numbers of events (births, deaths, etc.) are also small. In this case, methods must be used to produce a standardized mortality rate (SMR) or standardized incidence rate (SIR).
Population composition is the description of population defined by characteristics such as age, race, sex or marital status by Marc, Paul J. (2001): Population Change and Distribution: Census 2000 Brief.
These descriptions can be necessary for understanding the social dynamics from historical and comparative research. This data is often compared using a population pyramid. Population composition is also a very important part of historical research. Information ranging back hundreds of years is not always worthwhile, because the numbers of people for which data are available may not provide the information that is important (such as population size). Lack of information on the original data-collection procedures may prevent accurate evaluation of data quality. With the growth in information technology, the study offers numerous values to the National Population Commission (NPC) Huge files kept in the offices will no longer be there again because information will be stored In the computer system with the help of the database program.
1.3 Statement of Problem
Investigation reveals the problems of the Demographic Information System existing system, which are as follows:
- The difficulties encountered in keeping demographic data and information.
