Such rules are referred to as positive association rules. Negative association rules also consider the same items, but in addition consider negated items (i. e. absent from transactions). Negative association rules are useful in market-basket analysis to identify products that conflict with each other or products that complement each other. They are also very convenient for associative classifiers, classifiers that build their classification model based on association rules. Indeed, mining for such rules necessitates the examination of an exponentially large search space. Despite their usefulness, very few algorithms to mine them have been proposed to date. In this paper, an algorithm based on FP tree is presented to discover negative association rules.展开更多

The conventional association rule mining focuses mainly on positive itemsets generated from frequently occurring itemsets (PFIS). However, there has been a significant study focused on infrequent itemsets with utilization of negative association rules to mine interesting frequent itemsets (NFIS) from transactions. In this work, we propose an efficient backward calculating negative frequent itemset algorithm namely EBC-NFIS for computing backward supports that can extract both positive and negative frequent itemsets synchronously from dataset. EBC-NFIS algorithm is based on popular e-NFIS algorithm that computes supports of negative itemsets from the supports of positive itemsets. The proposed algorithm makes use of previously computed supports from memory to minimize the computation time. In addition, association rules, i.e. positive and negative association rules (PNARs) are generated from discovered frequent itemsets using EBC-NFIS algorithm. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is verified by several experiments and comparing results with e-NFIS algorithm. The experimental results confirm that the proposed algorithm successfully discovers NFIS and PNARs and runs significantly faster than conventional e-NFIS algorithm.展开更多

An optimization algorithm named Binary Particle Swarm Optimization is used to improve the computation of Non_Reduct in order to detect outliers.By using Binary PSO algorithm, the rules generated from Rough_Outliers algorithm is optimized, giving significant outliers object detected. The detection ofoutliers process is then enhanced by hybridizing it with Negative Association Rules. Frequent and Infrequent item sets from outlier rules are generated. Results show that the hybrid Rough_Negative algorithm is able to uncover meaningful knowledge of outliers from the frequent and infrequent item sets. These knowledge can then be used by experts in their field of domain for better decision making.展开更多
