This document provides an overview of association rule mining and the Apriori algorithm. It introduces the concepts of association rules, frequent itemsets, support and confidence. The Apriori algorithm is a level-wise approach that first finds all frequent itemsets that satisfy a minimum support threshold, and then generates strong association rules from them that meet a minimum confidence threshold. The algorithm makes multiple passes over the transaction data and exploits an apriori property to prune the search space.
This document provides an overview of association rule mining and the Apriori algorithm. It begins with basic concepts like transactions, items, itemsets, and rules. It then describes the Apriori algorithm's two steps: 1) finding all frequent itemsets that occur above a minimum support threshold, and 2) generating rules from those frequent itemsets that meet a minimum confidence threshold. The rest of the document provides more details on the Apriori algorithm, including candidate generation, support counting, and pruning.
The document describes the Apriori algorithm for mining association rules from transactional data. The Apriori algorithm has two main steps: (1) it finds all frequent itemsets that occur above a minimum support threshold by iteratively joining candidate itemsets and pruning infrequent subsets; (2) it generates association rules from the frequent itemsets by considering all subsets of each frequent itemset and calculating the confidence of predicted items. The algorithm uses the property that any subset of a frequent itemset must also be frequent to efficiently find all frequent itemsets in multiple passes over the transaction data.
This document proposes an approach to improve the efficiency of the Apriori algorithm for association rule mining. The Apriori algorithm is inefficient because it requires multiple scans of the transaction database to find frequent itemsets. The proposed approach aims to reduce this inefficiency in two ways: 1) It reduces the size of the transaction database by removing transactions where the transaction size is less than the candidate itemset size. 2) It scans only the relevant transactions for candidate itemset counting rather than the full database, by using transaction IDs of minimum support items from the first pass of the algorithm. An example is provided to demonstrate how the approach reduces the database and number of transactions scanned to generate frequent itemsets more efficiently than the standard Apriori
The document discusses hiding sensitive association rules from mined data. It begins with an introduction to privacy preserving data mining and association rule hiding algorithms. It then provides terminology for key concepts like data mining, association rules, support and confidence. The document outlines the scope and applications of association rule mining. It presents the problem formulation and discusses modification schemes for hiding rules, such as deletion and insertion of items. It provides implementation steps and a flow diagram for the process. Finally, it includes an example to illustrate the Apriori algorithm for mining association rules from transactional data.
Association rule mining is a machine learning technique used to discover relationships between variables in large datasets. It involves finding frequent itemsets - sets of items that often occur together - and generating rules based on these itemsets. A common algorithm for association rule mining is the Apriori algorithm, which uses a breadth-first search strategy to count item frequencies and generate candidate itemsets in multiple passes over the transaction data. The algorithm outputs frequent itemsets that meet minimum support and confidence thresholds, from which association rules can be derived.
This document proposes modifications to the Apriori algorithm for association rule mining. It begins with an introduction to association rule learning and the Apriori algorithm. It then describes the proposed modifications which include:
1. Adding a "tag" field to transactions to reduce the search space when finding frequent itemsets.
2. A modified approach to generating association rules that aims to produce fewer rules while maximizing correct classification of data.
An example is provided to illustrate how the tag-based search works. The proposed modifications are intended to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the association rule mining process. The document concludes by discussing experimental results comparing the proposed approach to other rule learning algorithms on an iris dataset.
The document discusses two algorithms for hiding sensitive association rules in data mining:
1. The Increase Support of LHS First (ISLF) algorithm tries to increase the support of the left hand side of a rule to decrease its confidence below the minimum threshold. If unsuccessful, it decreases the support of the right hand side.
2. The Decrease Support of RHS First (DSRF) algorithm first tries to decrease the support of the right hand side of a rule containing sensitive items to lower the rule's confidence.
Both algorithms modify transactions in the database to alter item support counts and successfully hide association rules containing sensitive items on the right hand side below user-defined minimum support and confidence levels.

The document discusses association rule mining which aims to discover relationships between items in transactional data. It defines key concepts like support, confidence and association rules. It also describes several algorithms for mining association rules like Apriori, Partition and Pincer-Search.

Pattern Discovery Using Apriori and Ch-Search Algorithmijceronline
This document discusses and compares the Apriori and Ch-Search algorithms for pattern discovery in large databases. The Apriori algorithm uses minimum support and confidence thresholds to generate frequent itemsets and association rules, but can miss some "negative" rules. The Ch-Search algorithm uses "coherent rules" based on propositional logic to discover both positive and negative patterns without minimum support thresholds. It is more efficient at pattern discovery than Apriori as it considers all attribute relationships. The proposed system applies the Ch-Search algorithm to generate rules and patterns for classification, demonstrating it can produce more accurate and complete results than Apriori.

i-Eclat: performance enhancement of Eclat via incremental approach in frequen...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
One example of the state-of-the-art vertical rule mining technique is called equivalence class transformation (Eclat) algorithm. Neither horizontal nor vertical data format, both are still suffering from the huge memory consumption. In response to the promising results of mining in a higher volume of data from a vertical format, and taking consideration of dynamic transaction of data in a database, the research proposes a performance enhancement of Eclat algorithm that relies on incremental approach called an Incremental-Eclat (i-Eclat) algorithm. Motivated from the fast intersection in Eclat, this algorithm of performance enhancement adopts via my structured query language (MySQL) database management system (DBMS) as its platform. It serves as the association rule mining database engine in testing benchmark frequent itemset mining (FIMI) datasets from online repository. The MySQL DBMS is chosen in order to reduce the preprocessing stages of datasets. The experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the traditional Eclat with 17% both in chess and T10I4D100K, 69% in mushroom, 5% and 8% in pumsb_star and retail datasets. Thus, among five (5) dense and sparse datasets, the average performance of i-Eclat is concluded to be 23% better than Eclat.
Association rule mining is a technique used to discover relationships between variables in large datasets. It identifies patterns and correlations among items. The key concepts are itemsets, support, and confidence. The Apriori algorithm and FP-Growth approach are two common algorithms used. Apriori generates candidate itemsets in multiple passes over the data, while FP-Growth avoids candidate generation by building a tree structure. The Eclat algorithm also finds frequent itemsets but uses a vertical database format and depth-first search. These algorithms are applied to market basket analysis to understand customer purchasing behaviors.
Comparative analysis of association rule generation algorithms in data streamsIJCI JOURNAL
This document summarizes the results of an experiment that compares three algorithms for generating association rules from data streams: Association Outliers, Frequent Item Sets, and Supervised Association Rule. The algorithms were tested on partitioned windows of a connectivity dataset containing 1,000 to 10,000 instances. Association rules and execution time were used as performance metrics. The Frequent Item Set algorithm generated more rules faster than the other two algorithms across all window sizes and data volumes tested.

Scalable frequent itemset mining using heterogeneous computing par apriori a...ijdpsjournal
Association Rule mining is one of the dominant tasks of data mining, which concerns in finding frequent
itemsets in large volumes of data in order to produce summarized models of mined rules. These models are
extended to generate association rules in various applications such as e-commerce, bio-informatics,
associations between image contents and non image features, analysis of effectiveness of sales and retail
industry, etc. In the vast increasing databases, the major challenge is the frequent itemsets mining in a
very short period of time. In the case of increasing data, the time taken to process the data should be
almost constant. Since high performance computing has many processors, and many cores, consistent runtime
performance for such very large databases on association rules mining is achieved. We, therefore,
must rely on high performance parallel and/or distributed computing. In literature survey, we have studied
the sequential Apriori algorithms and identified the fundamental problems in sequential environment and
parallel environment. In our proposed ParApriori, we have proposed parallel algorithm for GPGPU, and
we have also done the results analysis of our GPU parallel algorithm. We find that proposed algorithm
improved the computing time, consistency in performance over the increasing load. The empirical analysis
of the algorithm also shows that efficiency and scalability is verified over the series of datasets
experimented on many core GPU platform.

The model: rules
A transaction t contains X, a set of items
(itemset) in I, if X t.
An association rule is an implication of the
form:
X Y, where X, Y I, and X Y =
An itemset is a set of items.
E.g., X = {milk, bread, cereal} is an itemset.
A k-itemset is an itemset with k items.
E.g., {milk, bread, cereal} is a 3-itemset
8. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 8
Rule strength measures
Support: The rule holds with support sup in T
(the transaction data set) if sup% of
transactions contain X Y.
sup = Pr(X Y).
Confidence: The rule holds in T with
confidence conf if conf% of tranactions that
contain X also contain Y.
conf = Pr(Y | X)
An association rule is a pattern that states
when X occurs, Y occurs with certain
probability.

Support and Confidence
Support count: The support count of an
itemset X, denoted by X.count, in a data set
T is the number of transactions in T that
contain X. Assume T has n transactions.

Many mining algorithms
There are a large number of them!!
They use different strategies and data structures.
Their resulting sets of rules are all the same.
Given a transaction data set T, and a minimum support and
a minimum confident, the set of association rules existing in
T is uniquely determined.
Any algorithm should find the same set of rules
although their computational efficiencies and
memory requirements may be different.

Summary
15. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 15
The Apriori algorithm
Probably the best known algorithm
Two steps:
Find all itemsets that have minimum support
(frequent itemsets, also called large itemsets).
Use frequent itemsets to generate rules.
E.g., a frequent itemset
{Chicken, Clothes, Milk} [sup = 3/7]
and one rule from the frequent itemset
Clothes Milk, Chicken [sup = 3/7, conf = 3/3]
16. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 16
Step 1: Mining all frequent itemsets
A frequent itemset is an itemset whose support
is ≥ minsup.
Key idea: The apriori property (downward
closure property): any subsets of a frequent
itemset are also frequent itemsets
AB AC AD BC BD CD
A B C D
ABC ABD ACD BCD
17. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 17
The Algorithm
Iterative algo. (also called level-wise search):
Find all 1-item frequent itemsets; then all 2-item
frequent itemsets, and so on.
In each iteration k, only consider itemsets that
contain some k-1 frequent itemset.
Find frequent itemsets of size 1: F1
From k = 2
Ck = candidates of size k: those itemsets of size k
that could be frequent, given Fk-1
Fk = those itemsets that are actually frequent, Fk
Ck (need to scan the database once).
19. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 19
Details: ordering of items
The items in I are sorted in lexicographic
order (which is a total order).
The order is used throughout the algorithm in
each itemset.
{w[1], w[2], …, w[k]} represents a k-itemset w
consisting of items w[1], w[2], …, w[k], where
w[1] < w[2] < … < w[k] according to the total
order.
20. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 20
Details: the algorithm
Algorithm Apriori(T)
C1 init-pass(T);
F1 {f | f C1, f.count/n minsup}; // n: no. of transactions in T
for (k = 2; Fk-1 ; k++) do
Ck candidate-gen(Fk-1);
for each transaction t T do
for each candidate c Ck do
if c is contained in t then
c.count++;
end
end
Fk {c Ck | c.count/n minsup}
end
return F k Fk;
21. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 21
Apriori candidate generation
The candidate-gen function takes Fk-1 and
returns a superset (called the candidates)
of the set of all frequent k-itemsets. It has
two steps
join step: Generate all possible candidate
itemsets Ck of length k
prune step: Remove those candidates in Ck
that cannot be frequent.
22. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 22
Candidate-gen function
Function candidate-gen(Fk-1)
Ck ;
forall f1, f2 Fk-1
with f1 = {i1, … , ik-2, ik-1}
and f2 = {i1, … , ik-2, i’k-1}
and ik-1 < i’k-1 do
c {i1, …, ik-1, i’k-1}; // join f1 and f2
Ck Ck {c};
for each (k-1)-subset s of c do
if (s Fk-1) then
delete c from Ck; // prune
end
end
return Ck;
23. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 23
An example
F3 = {{1, 2, 3}, {1, 2, 4}, {1, 3, 4},
{1, 3, 5}, {2, 3, 4}}
After join
C4 = {{1, 2, 3, 4}, {1, 3, 4, 5}}
After pruning:
C4 = {{1, 2, 3, 4}}
because {1, 4, 5} is not in F3 ({1, 3, 4, 5} is removed)
24. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 24
Step 2: Generating rules from frequent
itemsets
Frequent itemsets association rules
One more step is needed to generate
association rules
For each frequent itemset X,
For each proper nonempty subset A of X,
Let B = X - A
A B is an association rule if
Confidence(A B) ≥ minconf,
support(A B) = support(AB) = support(X)
confidence(A B) = support(A B) / support(A)
25. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 25
Generating rules: an example
Suppose {2,3,4} is frequent, with sup=50%
Proper nonempty subsets: {2,3}, {2,4}, {3,4}, {2}, {3}, {4}, with
sup=50%, 50%, 75%, 75%, 75%, 75% respectively
These generate these association rules:
2,3 4, confidence=100%
2,4 3, confidence=100%
3,4 2, confidence=67%
2 3,4, confidence=67%
3 2,4, confidence=67%
4 2,3, confidence=67%
All rules have support = 50%
26. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 26
Generating rules: summary
To recap, in order to obtain A B, we need
to have support(A B) and support(A)
All the required information for confidence
computation has already been recorded in
itemset generation. No need to see the data
T any more.
This step is not as time-consuming as
frequent itemsets generation.
27. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 27
On Apriori Algorithm
Seems to be very expensive
Level-wise search
K = the size of the largest itemset
It makes at most K passes over data
In practice, K is bounded (10).
The algorithm is very fast. Under some conditions,
all rules can be found in linear time.
Scale up to large data sets
28. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 28
More on association rule mining
Clearly the space of all association rules is
exponential, O(2m), where m is the number of
items in I.
The mining exploits sparseness of data, and
high minimum support and high minimum
confidence values.
Still, it always produces a huge number of
rules, thousands, tens of thousands, millions,
...

Summary
33. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 33
Problems with the association mining
Single minsup: It assumes that all items in
the data are of the same nature and/or
have similar frequencies.
Not true: In many applications, some items
appear very frequently in the data, while
others rarely appear.
E.g., in a supermarket, people buy food processor
and cooking pan much less frequently than they
buy bread and milk.
34. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 34
Rare Item Problem
If the frequencies of items vary a great deal,
we will encounter two problems
If minsup is set too high, those rules that involve
rare items will not be found.
To find rules that involve both frequent and rare
items, minsup has to be set very low. This may
cause combinatorial explosion because those
frequent items will be associated with one another
in all possible ways.
35. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 35
Multiple minsups model
The minimum support of a rule is expressed in
terms of minimum item supports (MIS) of the items
that appear in the rule.
Each item can have a minimum item support.
By providing different MIS values for different
items, the user effectively expresses different
support requirements for different rules.
36. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 36
Minsup of a rule
Let MIS(i) be the MIS value of item i. The
minsup of a rule R is the lowest MIS value of
the items in the rule.
I.e., a rule R: a1, a2, …, ak ak+1, …, ar
satisfies its minimum support if its actual
support is
min(MIS(a1), MIS(a2), …, MIS(ar)).
37. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 37
An Example
Consider the following items:
bread, shoes, clothes
The user-specified MIS values are as follows:
MIS(bread) = 2% MIS(shoes) = 0.1%
MIS(clothes) = 0.2%
The following rule doesn’t satisfy its minsup:
clothes bread [sup=0.15%,conf =70%]
The following rule satisfies its minsup:
clothes shoes [sup=0.15%,conf =70%]
38. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 38
Downward closure property
In the new model, the property no longer
holds (?)
E.g., Consider four items 1, 2, 3 and 4 in a
database. Their minimum item supports are
MIS(1) = 10% MIS(2) = 20%
MIS(3) = 5% MIS(4) = 6%
{1, 2} with support 9% is infrequent, but {1, 2, 3}
and {1, 2, 4} could be frequent.
39. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 39
To deal with the problem
We sort all items in I according to their MIS
values (make it a total order).
The order is used throughout the algorithm in
each itemset.
Each itemset w is of the following form:
{w[1], w[2], …, w[k]}, consisting of items,
w[1], w[2], …, w[k],
where MIS(w[1]) MIS(w[2]) … MIS(w[k]).
40. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 40
The MSapriori algorithm
Algorithm MSapriori(T, MS)
M sort(I, MS);
L init-pass(M, T);
F1 {{i} | i L, i.count/n MIS(i)};
for (k = 2; Fk-1 ; k++) do
if k=2 then
Ck level2-candidate-gen(L)
else Ck MScandidate-gen(Fk-1);
end;
for each transaction t T do
for each candidate c Ck do
if c is contained in t then
c.count++;
if c – {c[1]} is contained in t then
c.tailCount++
end
end
Fk {c Ck | c.count/n MIS(c[1])}
end
return F kFk;
41. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 41
Candidate itemset generation
Special treatments needed:
Sorting the items according to their MIS values
First pass over data (the first three lines)
Let us look at this in detail.
Candidate generation at level-2
Read it in the handout.
Pruning step in level-k (k > 2) candidate
generation.
Read it in the handout.
42. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 42
First pass over data
It makes a pass over the data to record the
support count of each item.
It then follows the sorted order to find the
first item i in M that meets MIS(i).
i is inserted into L.
For each subsequent item j in M after i, if
j.count/n MIS(i) then j is also inserted into L,
where j.count is the support count of j and n is
the total number of transactions in T. Why?
L is used by function level2-candidate-gen
43. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 43
First pass over data: an example
Consider the four items 1, 2, 3 and 4 in a data set.
Their minimum item supports are:
MIS(1) = 10% MIS(2) = 20%
MIS(3) = 5% MIS(4) = 6%
Assume our data set has 100 transactions. The first
pass gives us the following support counts:
{3}.count = 6, {4}.count = 3,
{1}.count = 9, {2}.count = 25.
Then L = {3, 1, 2}, and F1 = {{3}, {2}}
Item 4 is not in L because 4.count/n < MIS(3) (= 5%),
{1} is not in F1 because 1.count/n < MIS(1) (= 10%).
44. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 44
Rule generation
The following two lines in MSapriori algorithm
are important for rule generation, which are
not needed for the Apriori algorithm
if c – {c[1]} is contained in t then
c.tailCount++
Many rules cannot be generated without
them.
Why?
45. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 45
On multiple minsup rule mining
Multiple minsup model subsumes the single
support model.
It is a more realistic model for practical
applications.
The model enables us to found rare item rules
yet without producing a huge number of
meaningless rules with frequent items.
By setting MIS values of some items to 100% (or
more), we effectively instruct the algorithms not
to generate rules only involving these items.

Mining class association rules
Summary
47. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 47
Mining class association rules (CAR)
Normal association rule mining does not have
any target.
It finds all possible rules that exist in data, i.e.,
any item can appear as a consequent or a
condition of a rule.
However, in some applications, the user is
interested in some targets.
E.g, the user has a set of text documents from
some known topics. He/she wants to find out what
words are associated or correlated with each topic.
48. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 48
Problem definition
Let T be a transaction data set consisting of n
transactions.
Each transaction is also labeled with a class y.
Let I be the set of all items in T, Y be the set of all
class labels and I Y = .
A class association rule (CAR) is an implication of
the form
X y, where X I, and y Y.
The definitions of support and confidence are the
same as those for normal association rules.
49. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 49
An example
A text document data set
doc 1: Student, Teach, School : Education
doc 2: Student, School : Education
doc 3: Teach, School, City, Game : Education
doc 4: Baseball, Basketball : Sport
doc 5: Basketball, Player, Spectator : Sport
doc 6: Baseball, Coach, Game, Team : Sport
doc 7: Basketball, Team, City, Game : Sport
Let minsup = 20% and minconf = 60%. The following are two
examples of class association rules:
Student, School Education [sup= 2/7, conf = 2/2]
game Sport [sup= 2/7, conf = 2/3]
50. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 50
Mining algorithm
Unlike normal association rules, CARs can be mined
directly in one step.
The key operation is to find all ruleitems that have
support above minsup. A ruleitem is of the form:
(condset, y)
where condset is a set of items from I (i.e., condset
I), and y Y is a class label.
Each ruleitem basically represents a rule:
condset y,
The Apriori algorithm can be modified to generate
CARs
51. CS583, Bing Liu, UIC 51
Multiple minimum class supports
The multiple minimum support idea can also be
applied here.
The user can specify different minimum supports to
different classes, which effectively assign a different
minimum support to rules of each class.
For example, we have a data set with two classes,
Yes and No. We may want
rules of class Yes to have the minimum support of 5% and
rules of class No to have the minimum support of 10%.
By setting minimum class supports to 100% (or
more for some classes), we tell the algorithm not to
generate rules of those classes.
This is a very useful trick in applications.
