Building predictive models and finding useful rules are two important tasks of data mining. While building predictive models has been well studied, finding useful rules for action...
Association rules are a class of important regularities in databases. They are found to be very useful in practical applications. However, the number of association rules discovere...
The paper combines and extends the technologies of fuzzy sets and association rules, considering users’ differential emphasis on each attribute through fuzzy regions. A fuzzy da...
Pattern discovery techniques, such as association rule discovery, explore large search spaces of potential patterns to find those that satisfy some user-specified constraints. Due...
Rare association rules are those that only appear infrequently even though they are highly associated with very specific data. In consequence, these rules can be very appropriate f...
