How Association Rule Mining?

Association rule mining, at a basic level, involves the use of machine learning models to analyze data for patterns, or co-occurrences, in a database. ... Association rules are created by searching data for frequent if-then patterns and using the criteria support and confidence to identify the most important relationships.

How are association rules represented?

Association rules (Pang-Ning et al., 2006) are usually represented in the form X → Y, where X (also called rule antecedent) and Y (also called rule consequent) are disjoint itemsets (ie, disjoint conjunctions of features). Rule quality is usually measured by rule support and confidence.

What is association technique in data mining?

Association rule mining is a procedure which aims to observe frequently occurring patterns, correlations, or associations from datasets found in various kinds of databases such as relational databases, transactional databases, and other forms of repositories.
