Frequent Items

Temporal association rule mining is a data mining technique in which relationships between items which satisfy certain timing constraints can be discovered. This paper presents the concept of temporal association rules in order to solve the problem of classification of inventories by including time expressions into association rules. Firstly, loss profit of frequent items is calculated by using temporal association rule mining algorithm. Then, the frequent items in particular time-periods are ranked according to descending order of loss profits. The manager can easily recognize most profitable items with the help of ranking found in the paper. An example is illustrated to validate the results.

Frequent Items

A modified framework that applies temporal association rule mining to inventory management is proposed in this article. The ordering policy of frequent items is determined and inventory is classified based on loss rule. This helps inventory managers to determine optimum order quantity of frequent items together with the most profitable item in each time-span. An example is illustrated to validate the results.

Quantitative Association Rule

Association rule mining among frequent items has been extensively studied in data mining research. However, in recent years, there is an increasing demand for mining infrequent items (such as rare but expensive items). Since exploring interesting relationships among infrequent items has not been discussed much in the literature, in this chapter, the authors propose two simple, practical and effective schemes to mine association rules among rare items. Their algorithms can also be applied to frequent items with bounded length. Experiments are performed on the well-known IBM synthetic database. The authors’ schemes compare favorably to Apriori and FP-growth under the situation being evaluated. In addition, they explore quantitative association rule mining in transactional databases among infrequent items by associating quantities of items: some interesting examples are drawn to illustrate the significance of such mining.

<div>Association rule mining is a well-known data mining technique used for extracting hidden correlations between data items in large databases. In the majority of the situations, data mining results contain sensitive information about individuals and publishing such data will violate individual secrecy. The challenge of association rule mining is to preserve the confidentiality of sensitive rules when releasing the database to external parties. The association rule hiding technique conceals the knowledge extracted by the sensitive association rules by modifying the database. In this paper, we introduce a border-based algorithm for hiding sensitive association rules. The main purpose of this approach is to conceal the sensitive rule set while maintaining the utility of the database and association rule mining results at the highest level. The performance of the algorithm in terms of the side effects is demonstrated using experiments conducted on two real datasets. The results show that the information loss is minimized without sacrificing the accuracy. </div>

Fuzzy Association Rule Mining

Social networking became one of the main marketing tools in the recent years since it’s a faster and cheaper way to reach the customers. Companies can use social networks for efficient communication with their current and potential customers but the value created through the usage of social networks depends on how well the organizations use these tools. Therefore a support system which will enhance the usage of these tools is necessary. Fuzzy Association rule mining (FARM) is a commonly used data mining technique which focuses on discovering the frequent items and association rules in a data set and can be a powerful tool for enhancing the usage of social networks. Therefore the aim of the chapter is to propose a fuzzy association rule mining based methodology which will present the potential of using the FARM techniques in the field of social network analysis. In order to reveal the applicability, an experimental evaluation of the proposed methodology in a sports portal will be presented.

Mining Algorithms

Temporal Association Rule mining uncovers time integrated associations in a transactional database. However, in an environment where database is regularly updated, maintenance of rules is a challenging process. Earlier algorithms suggested for maintaining frequent patterns either suffered from the problem of repeated scanning or the problem of larger storage space. Therefore, this paper proposes an algorithm “Probabilistic Incremental Temporal Association Rule Mining (PITARM)” that uncovers the changed behaviour in an updated database to maintain the rules efficiently. The proposed algorithm defines two support measures to identify itemsets expected to be frequent in the successive segment in advance. It reduces unnecessary scanning of itemsets in the entire database through three-fold verification and avoids generating redundant supersets and power sets from infrequent itemsets. Implementation of pruning technique in incremental mining is a novel approach that makes it better than earlier incremental mining algorithms and consequently reduces search space to a great extent. It scans the entire database only once, thus reducing execution time. Experimental results confirm that it is an enhancement over earlier algorithms.
