一种有效的关联规则的挖掘方法

An Effective Association Rules Mining Method

提出简单关联规则的定义,并证明传统算法挖出的规则集中的任何规则均可以由简单关联规则生成,而简单关联规则的数量远远小于传统算法挖掘出的规则数量,从理论上证明了简单关联规则算法的优越性。

This paper proposes a definition of the simple association rules, and proves that all rules in the rules set mined by conventional mining algorithms can be generated by the simple association rules. Moreover, the number of the simple association rules is much less than the number of all rules. Theoretically, this paper proves the advantage of the simple association rules.
