This document describes a Multilevel Relationship Algorithm (MRA) for improving association rule mining. MRA works in three stages: 1) It uses an Apriori algorithm to find level 1 associations between items within individual shops. 2) It uses the level 1 associations to find frequent itemsets across shops. 3) It uses Bayesian probability to determine dependencies between items across shops and generate learning rules. The algorithm aims to discover relationships between sales data from different shops to gain insights for business decisions.
This document discusses privacy-preserving techniques for association rule mining. It introduces the problem of protecting sensitive rules mined from transactional databases before releasing the data. Two data restriction algorithms are described in detail: the Sliding Window Algorithm (SWA) and Item Grouping Algorithm (IGA). SWA sanitizes sensitive transactions by removing items, prioritizing the shortest transactions. IGA groups rules sharing items and sanitizes overlapping transactions together. The algorithms' effectiveness is evaluated using a synthetic dataset based on their ability to prevent discovery of restricted patterns in the sanitized data.

Multiple Minimum Support Implementations with Dynamic Matrix Apriori Algorith...ijsrd.com
Data mining can be defined as the process of uncovering hidden patterns in random data that are potentially useful. The discovery of interesting association relationships among large amounts of business transactions is currently vital for making appropriate business decisions. Association rule analysis is the task of discovering association rules that occur frequently in a given transaction data set. Its task is to find certain relationships among a set of data (itemset) in the database. It has two measurements: Support and confidence values. Confidence value is a measure of rule’s strength, while support value corresponds to statistical significance. There are currently a variety of algorithms to discover association rules. Some of these algorithms depend on the use of minimum support to weed out the uninteresting rules. Other algorithms look for highly correlated items, that is, rules with high confidence. Traditional association rule mining techniques employ predefined support and confidence values. However, specifying minimum support value of the mined rules in advance often leads to either too many or too few rules, which negatively impacts the performance of the overall system. This work proposes a way to efficiently mine association rules over dynamic databases using Dynamic Matrix Apriori technique and Multiple Support Apriori (MSApriori). A modification for Matrix Apriori algorithm to accommodate this modification is proposed. Experiments on large set of data bases have been conducted to validate the proposed framework. The achieved results show that there is a remarkable improvement in the overall performance of the system in terms of run time, the number of generated rules, and number of frequent items used.
The document proposes an algorithm called MSApriori_VDB for efficiently mining rare association rules from transactional databases. It first converts the transaction database to a vertical data format to reduce the number of scans. It then uses a multiple minimum support framework where each item is assigned a minimum item support based on its frequency. The algorithm generates candidate itemsets, calculates their support, and prunes uninteresting itemsets to identify interesting rare associations with high confidence. Experimental results show the algorithm outperforms previous approaches in memory usage and runtime.
This document summarizes an article that proposes a new algorithm for efficiently mining both positive and negative association rules from transactional databases. The algorithm first constructs a frequent pattern tree (FP-tree) to store the transaction information. It then uses an FP-growth approach to iteratively find frequent patterns and generate the positive and negative association rules without candidate generation. The algorithm aims to overcome limitations of previous methods and efficiently find all valid comparative association rules.

Top Down Approach to find Maximal Frequent Item Sets using Subset Creationcscpconf
Association rule has been an area of active research in the field of knowledge discovery. Data
mining researchers had improved upon the quality of association rule mining for business
development by incorporating influential factors like value (utility), quantity of items sold
(weight) and more for the mining of association patterns. In this paper, we propose an efficient
approach to find maximal frequent item set first. Most of the algorithms in literature used to find
minimal frequent item first, then with the help of minimal frequent item sets derive the maximal
frequent item sets. These methods consume more time to find maximal frequent item sets. To
overcome this problem, we propose a navel approach to find maximal frequent item set directly using the concepts of subsets. The proposed method is found to be efficient in finding maximal frequent item sets.

A model for profit pattern mining based on genetic algorithmeSAT Journals
Abstract
Mining profit oriented patterns is a novel technique of association rule mining in data mining, which basically focuses on important issues related with business. As it is well known that every business aims to generate the profit and find the ways to improve the same. In earlier days association rule mining was used for market basket analysis and targeted only some of the business and commercial aspects. Afterwards the researchers started to aim the most prominent element of any business i.e. Profit, and determined the innovative way to generate the association rules based on profit. Profit oriented patterns mining approach combines the statistic based pattern mining with value-based decision making to generate those patterns with the maximum profit and some ways to generate recommenders for future strategy. To achieve the desired goal the traditional association rule mining alone is not effectual, so we combine the strength of genetic algorithm with association rule mining to enhance its capability. The study shows that Genetic Algorithm improves the effectiveness and efficiency of association rule mining outcome, since genetic algorithms are competent to handle the problems related with the uncertainty, multi-dimensional, non-differential, non-continuous, and non-parametrical, non-linearity constraint and multi-objective optimization problems. In this paper we apply the concept of profit pattern mining with genetic algorithm to generate profit oriented pattern which help out in future business expansion and fulfill the business objective.

An apriori based algorithm to mine association rules with inter itemset distanceIJDKP
Association rules discovered from transaction databases can be large in number. Reduction of association
rules is an issue in recent times. Conventionally by varying support and confidence number of rules can be
increased and decreased. By combining additional constraint with support number of frequent itemsets can
be reduced and it leads to generation of less number of rules. Average inter itemset distance(IID) or
Spread, which is the intervening separation of itemsets in the transactions has been used as a measure of
interestingness for association rules with a view to reduce the number of association rules. In this paper by
using average Inter Itemset Distance a complete algorithm based on the apriori is designed and
implemented with a view to reduce the number of frequent itemsets and the association rules and also to
find the distribution pattern of the association rules in terms of the number of transactions of non
occurrences of the frequent itemsets. Further the apriori algorithm is also implemented and results are
compared. The theoretical concepts related to inter itemset distance are also put forward.
This document presents a framework for securely selecting the best distributor among multiple options in a business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce scenario. It proposes using a decision tree classification model to evaluate distributors based on attributes like forecast of purchase, marketing knowledge, payment history, manufacturer relationships, and advertising support. The framework involves distributors registering for bids, and the manufacturer running the bid process and selection using the decision tree model. The goal is to facilitate an informed and secure decision for choosing a distributor in B2B e-commerce.
This document discusses data mining techniques including classification, clustering, regression, and association rules. It provides examples of how each technique works and areas where they are applied, such as marketing, risk assessment, fraud detection, and customer care.

However, privacy is a concern when linking multiple data sources to gain a wide range of information about individuals.
This document summarizes a research paper about hiding sensitive data in data mining using association rules. The paper proposes an approach to modify transaction data to decrease the support or confidence of sensitive association rules, in order to hide the sensitive information while limiting side effects. It describes existing methods that hide rules one at a time with assumptions that may introduce false rules or side effects. The proposed approach allows selecting rules to hide without these assumptions, and aims to avoid side effects by modifying transactions rather than requiring all rules be hidden. Pseudocode provides algorithms for decreasing or increasing rule support and confidence through transaction modification.
Data mining involves analyzing large datasets to discover patterns and extract useful information.

NEW ALGORITHM FOR SENSITIVE RULE HIDING USING DATA DISTORTION TECHNIQUEcscpconf
Data mining is the process of extracting hidden patterns of data. Association rule mining is an
important data mining task that finds interesting association among a large set of data item. It
may disclose pattern and various kinds of sensitive information. Such information may be
protected against unauthorized access. Association rule hiding is one of the techniques of
privacy preserving data mining to protect the association rules generated by association rule
mining. This paper adopts data distortion technique for hiding sensitive association rules.
Algorithms based on this technique either hide a specific rule using data alteration technique or
hide the rules depending on the sensitivity of the items to be hidden. In the proposed technique,
positions of sensitive items are altered while maintaining the support. The proposed technique
uses the idea of representative rules to prune the rules first and then hides the sensitive rules.
This document describes two techniques for designing optical XNOR and NAND logic gates. The first technique uses a 2D array of coupled optical cavities with Kerr nonlinearity. Discrete cavity solitons are numerically simulated and used to demonstrate optical XNOR and NAND gates by controlling soliton interactions with a Gaussian beam. The second technique uses multi-mode interference waveguides to convert the phase of binary-phase-shift keying input signals to amplitude at the output, implementing optical XNOR and NAND logic. Numerical simulations using the finite element method show contrast ratios of 21.5 dB for the XNOR gate and 22.3 dB for the NAND gate.
This document summarizes a research paper on face recognition using principal component analysis (PCA). It discusses how PCA can be used to reduce the dimensionality of face images for recognition. The system detects faces in images, extracts features using PCA, and then compares new faces to those in a training database to recognize identities. The results showed an accuracy of 87.09% on a test set of 30 images using this PCA-based approach for face recognition. While effective, the system has limitations when faces vary significantly from the training data. Overall, PCA provides a way to analyze face patterns and identify faces with reasonable accuracy under controlled conditions.

This document summarizes a research paper on using active power filters to reduce total harmonic distortion. It provides background on power quality issues caused by harmonics from nonlinear loads. Active power filters inject harmonic currents to cancel out load harmonics. The document describes shunt and series active power filters and their control methods. Simulation results show that a shunt active power filter can reduce the voltage THD from 17.92% to 11.46% and current THD from 0.53% to 0.46% for an AC-DC converter feeding an R-L load. Thus, active power filters are effective in mitigating harmonics and improving power quality.

A model for profit pattern mining based on genetic algorithmeSAT Journals
Abstract
Mining profit oriented patterns is a novel technique of association rule mining in data mining, which basically focuses on important issues related with business. As it is well known that every business aims to generate the profit and find the ways to improve the same. In earlier days association rule mining was used for market basket analysis and targeted only some of the business and commercial aspects. Afterwards the researchers started to aim the most prominent element of any business i.e. Profit, and determined the innovative way to generate the association rules based on profit. Profit oriented patterns mining approach combines the statistic based pattern mining with value-based decision making to generate those patterns with the maximum profit and some ways to generate recommenders for future strategy. To achieve the desired goal the traditional association rule mining alone is not effectual, so we combine the strength of genetic algorithm with association rule mining to enhance its capability. The study shows that Genetic Algorithm improves the effectiveness and efficiency of association rule mining outcome, since genetic algorithms are competent to handle the problems related with the uncertainty, multi-dimensional, non-differential, non-continuous, and non-parametrical, non-linearity constraint and multi-objective optimization problems. In this paper we apply the concept of profit pattern mining with genetic algorithm to generate profit oriented pattern which help out in future business expansion and fulfill the business objective.

Data Mining is an important aspect for any business. Most of the management level decisions are based on the process of Data Mining. One of such aspect is the association between different sale products i.e. what is the actual support of a product respected to the other product. This concept is called Association Mining. According to this concept we define the process of estimating the sale of one product respective to the other product. We are proposing an association rule based on the concept of Hardware support. In this concept we first maintain the database and compare it with systolic array after this a pruning process is being performed to filter the database and to remove the rarely used items. Finally the data is indexed according to hashing technique and the decision is performed in terms of support count.

GeneticMax: An Efficient Approach to Mining Maximal Frequent Itemsets Based o...ITIIIndustries
This paper presents a new approach based on genetic algorithms (GAs) to generate maximal frequent itemsets (MFIs) from large datasets. This new algorithm, GeneticMax, is heuristic which mimics natural selection approaches for finding MFIs in an efficient way. The search strategy of this algorithm uses a lexicographic tree that avoids level by level searching which reduces the time required to mine the MFIs in a linear way. Our implementation of the search strategy includes bitmap representation of the nodes in a lexicographic tree and identifying frequent itemsets (FIs) from superset-subset relationships of nodes. This new algorithm uses the principles of GAs to perform global searches. The time complexity is less than many of the other algorithms since it uses a non-deterministic approach. We separate the effect of each step of this algorithm by experimental analysis on real datasets such as Tic-Tac-Toe, Zoo, and a 10000×8 dataset. Our experimental results showed that this approach is efficient and scalable for different sizes of itemsets. It accesses a major dataset to calculate a support value for fewer number of nodes to find the FIs even when the search space is very large, dramatically reducing the search time. The proposed algorithm shows how evolutionary method can be used on real datasets to find all the MFIs in an efficient way.
PATTERN DISCOVERY FOR MULTIPLE DATA SOURCES BASED ON ITEM RANKIJDKP
Retail company’s data may be geographically spread in different locations due to huge amount of data and
rapid growth in transactions. But for decision making, knowledge workers need integrated data of all sites.
Therefore the main challenge is to get generalized patterns or knowledge from the transactional data
which is spread at various locations. Transporting data from those locations to server site increases the
cost of transportation of data and at the same time finding patterns from huge data on the server increases
the time and space complexity. Thus multi-database mining plays a vital role to extract knowledge from
different data sources. Thus the technique proposed finds the patterns on various sites and instead of
transporting the data, only the patterns from various locations get transported to the server to find final
deliverable pattern. The technique uses the ranking algorithm to rank the items based on their profit, date
of expiry and stock available at each location. Then association rule mining (ARM) is used to extract
patterns based on ranking of items. Finally all the patterns discovered from various locations are merged
using pattern merger algorithm. Proposed algorithm is implemented and experimental results are taken
for both classical association rule mining on integrated data and for datasets at various sources. Finally
all patterns are combined to discover actionable patterns using pattern merger algorithm given in section
CONFIGURING ASSOCIATIONS TO INCREASE TRUST IN PRODUCT PURCHASEIJwest
Clustering is categorizing data into groups with similar objects. Data mining adds to complexities of clustering a large dataset with various features. Among these datasets, there are electronic business stores which offer their products through web. These stores require recommendation systems which can offer products to the user which the user might require them with higher probability. In this study, previous purchases of users are used to present a sorted list of products to the user. Identifying associations related to users and finding centers increases precision of the recommended list. Configuration of associations and creating a profile for users is important in current studies. In the proposed method, association rules are presented to model user interactions in the web which use time that a page is visited and frequency of visiting a page to weight pages and describes users’ interest to page groups. Therefore, weight of each transaction item describes user’s interest in that item. Analyzing results show that the proposed method presents a more complete model of users’ behavior because it combines weight and membership degree of pages simultaneously for ranking candidate pages. This method has obtained higher accuracy compared to other methods even in higher number of pages.

DISCOVERY OF ACTIONABLE PATTERNS THROUGH SCALABLE VERTICAL DATA SPLIT METHOD ...IJDKP
Action Rules are rule based systems that extract actionable patterns which are hidden in big volumes of data.
Users need recommendations on actions they can undertake to increase their profit or accomplish their goals,
this recommendations are provided by Actionable patterns. In the technological world of big data, massive
amounts of data are collected by organizations, including in major domains like financial, medical, social
media and Internet of Things(IoT). To analyze and store such a massive amount of data, distributed computing
frameworks like Hadoop and Spark are introduced to store the big data in a distributed fashion which manage
and analyze them in parallel. The traditional Action Rules extraction models, which analyze the data in a nondistributed fashion, do not perform well when dealing larger datasets. Serious complications of discovering
Action Rules with such distributed environments are - data distribution among computing nodes and calculation
of major parameters including : support, confidence, utility, and coverage, that represent the whole data.
Information granules form basic entities in the world of Granular Computing(GrC), which represents
meaningful smaller units derived from a larger complex information system. In this research, we focus on the
data distribution phase of the distributed Actionable Pattern Mining problem. To handle the data distribution
task by splitting the big data in both horizontal and vertical fashions - we propose partition threshold rho. In
this work, we concentrate on using information granules to implement a vertical data splitting strategy with
Meta Actions. Hence our results discover valuable Actionable Knowledge with application in Business and
Education domains.
The development of data mining is inseparable from the recent developments in information technology that enables the accumulation of large amounts of data. For example, a shopping mall that records every sales transaction of goods using various POS (point of sales). Database data from these sales could reach a large storage capacity, even more being added each day, especially when the shopping center will develop into a nationwide network. The development of the internet at the moment also has a share large enough in the accumulation of data occurs. But the rapid growth of data accumulation it has created conditions that are often referred to as "data rich but information poor" because the data collected can not be used optimally for useful applications. Not infrequently the data set was left just seemed to be a "grave data". There are several techniques used in data mining which includes association, classification, and clustering. In this paper, the author will do a comparison between the performance of the technical classification methods naïve Bayes and C4.5 algorithms.
The document presents a proposed algorithm called MSApriori_VDB for efficiently mining rare association rules from transactional databases. The algorithm first converts the transaction database to a vertical data format to reduce the number of scans. It then uses a multiple minimum support framework where each item is assigned a minimum item support based on its frequency. The algorithm generates candidate itemsets, calculates their support, and prunes uninteresting itemsets to identify interesting rare associations with high confidence. Experimental results show the algorithm outperforms previous approaches in memory usage and runtime.
This document summarizes a research paper that examines pricing strategy in a two-stage supply chain consisting of a supplier and retailer. The supplier offers a credit period to the retailer, who then offers credit to customers. A mathematical model is formulated to maximize total profit for the integrated supply chain system.

Equations are developed to represent the profit functions for the supplier, retailer and overall system in each case. The goal is to determine the optimal selling price that maximizes total integrated profit.

Association Mining is the discovery of relations or correlations among an item set. An objective is to make
rules from given multiple sources of customer database transaction. It needs increasingly deepening
knowledge mining process for finding refined knowledge from data. Earlier work is on mining association
rules at one level. Though mining association rules at various levels is necessary. Finding of interesting
association relationship among large amount of data will helpful to decision building, marketing, &
business managing.
Mining the Data is also known as Discovery of Knowledge in Databases. It is to get correlations, trends,
patterns, anomalies from the databases which can help to build exact future decisions. However data
mining is not the natural. No one can assure that the decision will lead to good quality results. It only
helps experts to understand the data and show the way to good decisions.
For generating frequent item set we are using Apriori Algorithm in multiple levels so called Multilevel
Relationship algorithm (MRA). MRA works in first two stages. In third stage of MRA uses Bayesian
probability to find out the dependency & relationship among different shops, pattern of sales & generates
the rule for learning. This paper gives detail idea about concepts of association mining, mathematical
model development for Multilevel Relationship algorithm and Implementation & Result Analysis of MRA
and performance comparison of MRA and Apriori algorithm.

1. INTRODUCTION
Association rule mining concept has been applied to market domain and specific problem has been studied, the
management of some aspects of a shopping mall, and an architecture that makes it possible to construct agents
capable of adapting the association rules has been used.
Data mining refers to extracting knowledge from large quantity of data. Interesting association can be
discovered among a large set of data items by association rule mining. The finding of interesting relationship
among large amount of business transaction records can help in many business decisions making process, such
as catalog plan, cross marketing and loss leader analysis[1].
Machine Learning deals with the design of programs that can learn rules from data, adapt to changes, and
improve performance with experience. In addition to being one of the initial thoughts of Computer Science,
Machine Learning has become vital as computers are expected to solve increasingly complex problems and
become more integrated into daily lives. These include identifying faces in images, autonomous driving in the
desert, finding relevant documents in a database, finding patterns in large volumes of scientific data, and
adjusting internal parameters of systems to optimize performance. Alternatively methods that take labeled
training data and then learn appropriate rules from the data seem to be the best approach to solve the problems.
Moreover, it needs a system that can adapt to varying conditions which is user-friendly by adapting to needs of
their individual users, and also can improve performance over time[2].
A shopping mall is a cluster of independent shops, planned and developed by one or several entities, with a
common objective. The size, commercial mixture, common services and complementary activities developed
are all in keeping with their surroundings. A shopping mall needs to be managed and, the management includes
solving incidents or problems in a dynamic environment[3].

As such, a shopping mall can be seen as a large dynamic problem, in which the management required depends
on the variability of the products, clients, opinions. Aim is to develop an open system, capable of incorporating
as many agents as necessary, agents that can provide useful services to the clients not only in this shopping
centre, but also in any other environment such as the labor market, educational system, medical care, etc.
However, previous work has been focused on mining association rules at a single concept level. There are
applications, which need to get associations at multiple concept levels. The focus was on working on
mathematical model development for multilevel association rule mining. Multilevel Apriori algorithm and
bayesian probability estimation is not combined in any of the previous work. It is the novel move towards the
mining association rule. Efficiency of original Apriori algorithm has been increased due to multilevel
architecture.
2. ASSOCIATION RULE
Market basket analysis is useful for retailers to plan which item to put on sale at reduced price. If customer tends
to purchase shirt of Bombay ding and jeans of Levis together, then having a sale on jeans may encourage the
sale of shirt as well as jeans. Buying patterns reflects which items are frequent associated or purchased together.
These patterns are represented in the form of association rules. For example, customer who purchase shirt-
Bombay ding also tends to buy jeans Levis at the same time is represented in association rule (2.1) below.
Shirt-Bombay ding ⇒ jeans-levis
[supp=2%, conf=60%] (2.1)
Mining association rule is finding the interesting association or correlation relationship among large set of data
items. Many industries are becoming interested in mining association rule from their database as massive
amount of data constantly being collected & stored in database. Relationship among the business traction
records can help to design catalog, loss leader analysis, cross marketing & other business decision making
process. The discovery of such association can help retailers to develop marketing strategies by gaining insight
into which items are frequently purchased together by customers. This information can increased sale by helping
retailers to do selective marketing & plan their shelf space. One of the motivating examples for association rule
mining is marker basket analysis[4].
Rule support & confidence are two measure rules. They respectively reflect the usefulness and certainty of
discovered rules. A support of 2% for association rule means that 2% of all transactions under analysis show
that shirt-Bombay ding and jeans-levis are purchased together. A confidence of 60% means that 60% of
customers who purchased shirt-Bombay ding also bought jeans Levis. Typically, association rule are considered
interesting if they satisfy both a minimum support threshold and a minimum assurance threshold. Such threshold
can be located by users or area expert.
Let I= {i1, i2, i3………….………id} set of all items in dataset
T= {t1, t2, t3…....……………......tn} set of all transactions
Each transaction ti contains a subset of items chosen from I. A transaction tj is said to contain an itemset X if X
is subset of tj.
Association rule is an implication of the form of
X ⇒Y, where X ⊆ I, Y⊆ I & X ∩Y = Ф
The rule X ⇒Y holds in the transaction set T with support s, where s is percentage of transactions in T that
contain X U Y. The rule X ⇒Y has confidence c in the transaction set T if c is percentage in transactions in T
containing X which also contain Y. i.e
Support (X ⇒Y) = P (X∪Y) (2.2)
Confidence (X ⇒Y) = P (Y|X) (2.3)
Rules that satisfy both minimum support threshold (min_sup) and a minimum confidence threshold (min_conf)
are called strong.
Itemset is nothing but set of items. If it contains n item is a n-itemset. The set {shirt-Bombay ding, jeans-
levis} is 2 itemset. The occurrence of itemset is the number of transactions that contain the itemset. This is
known as frequency or support count of the item set. It satisfies lowest amount of support if the occurrences
frequency of itemset is greater than or equal to the product of min_sup & total no of transactions in T. If an
itemset satisfy the minimum support then it is frequent itemset. Association mining has two steps process. In
first step, find all frequent item sets. All of these item sets will arise at least as frequently as a pre-determined

minimum support count. In second step, generate strong association rules from the frequent item sets and must
satisfy lowest amount of support and minimum confidence. The overall performance of mining association rule
is determined by the first step[5].
3. MULTILEVEL RELATIONSHIP ALGORITHM
To improve the mining of association rules new mining algorithm has been developed as Multilevel
Relationship Algorithm which works in three stages. In first two stages it utilizes apriori algorithm for finding
out frequent itemsets. Third stage of MRA uses bayesian probability to find out the dependency & relationship
amongst different shops and generates the rules for learning.
Let the system S be represented as
S = {I, O, fs | Φ s }
I = Input Datasets
O = Output Patterns
O = fs(I) ∀ Φ s
fs : I → O be ONTO function
Objective was to find out pattern of sale from given dataset of three different shops for particular time period.
Input dataset I = {X,Y,Z} such that X = {x1,x2,x3} , Y = {y1,y2,y3} and Z = {z1,z2,z3}
Success output O = {P(X0|Y0), P(X0|Z0), P(X1|Y1), P(Y1|Z1)……….. }
Multilevel Relationship Algorithm is applied on given input dataset i.e. I={X,Y,Z} where X = {x1,x2,x3}, Y =
{y1,y2,y3} and Z = {z1,z2,z3}.
First stage gives Level 1 association amongst items in the same shop using knowledge base. It is called as local
frequent itemsets generated in first phase. During second stage it uses individual knowledge base and level 1
association that was generated in stage I from same shops to find out the frequent item sets i.e. x1(0), x2(3),
x3(1)……etc. It is called as global frequent itemsets.
Stage 1:
At first stage it find out Level 1 association amongst items in the same shop i.e. internal relationship between the
same item types i. e. x1(0…….n), x2(0………n), x3(0……..n) within the Cloth shop (X) i.e. O = fs(X). It find
out internal relationship between the same item types i. e. y1(0…….n), y2(0………n), y3(0……..n) within the
Jewelry shop (Y) i.e. O = fs(Y). Also it find out the internal relationship between the same item types i. e.
z1(0…….n), z2(0………n), z3(0……..n) within the Footwear shop (Z) i.e. O = fs(Z).
Stage 2:
During second stage it uses individual knowledge base and level 1 association is generated in stage 1 of same
shop to find out the frequent item sets i.e. x1(0), x2(3), x3(1)……etc is called as global frequent itemsets. It
gives sets of frequent item sets for the Cloth shop for different items i.e. Fx as O = fs(x1,x2,x3). It gives sets of
frequent item sets for the Jewelry shop for different items i.e. Fy as O = fs(y1,y2,y3). And also gives with sets of
frequent item sets for the Footwear shop for different items i.e. Fz as O = fs(z1,z2,z3).
Stage 3:
It is necessary to determine dynamic behavior of Fi for particular season. External Dependencies amongst Items
Xi Yi……... Xn Yn has been found with Bayesian probability. New patterns are generated by Bayesian
probability through which learning rules are predicted & interpreted.

Working of Multilevel Relationship Algorithm
Let the sale of Item X at Cloth shop affects sale of item Y at Jewelry shop and item Z at Footwear.
1. Apriori association mining algorithm is applied on each item in cloth shops separately i.e. Jean(X0),
Tshirt(X1), Shirt(X2) and so on from the given large item sets. It was applied at two levels / phases in the
same shop.
2. After applying Apriori algorithm at first level for different support value it provide with the internal
dependency amongst individual items & generate the individual knowledge base i.e. x1(0) → x1(1), x2(0)
→ x2(1), x3(0) → x3(1) …....etc. It is called as local frequent itemsets generated in first phase.
3. At second level Apriori algorithm was applied on newly generated individual knowledge base to find out
the frequent item sets i.e. x1(0), x2(3), x3(1)……etc. It is called as global frequent itemsets.
4. It provided with sets of frequent item sets for the Cloth shop for different items i.e. Fx.
5. Similarly the algorithm is applied on Jewelry shop(Y) & Footwear shop(Z) to determine frequent itemset on
different items.
6. First Level output of Apriori algorithm provided internal association amongst the items i. e. y1(0) →
y1(1),y2(0) →y2(1),y3(0) →y3(1) & z1(0) →z1(1), z2(0) →z2(1), z3(0) →z3(1)......etc for Jewelry &
Footwear shop respectively.
7. Second level input of Apriori algorithm provided from newly generated individual knowledge base, the
frequent item sets i.e. y1(0), y2(3), y3(1), z1(1), z2(5)
8. It gives with sets of frequent item sets for the Jewelry & Footwear shop for different items i.e. Fy & Fz.
9. The context is generated under uncertainty in the form of frequent item sets Fx, Fy & Fz. System
constraints applied here are sale of items in a day, week, month or any particular season. This context is
refereed as Fi which is not constant, i.e. it changed seasonably.
10. Hence it is necessary to determine dynamic behavior of Fi for particular season.
11. External Dependencies amongst Items Xi →Yi….Xn →Yn is found with Bayesian probability.
12. New patterns are generated by Bayesian probability though which learning rules could be predicted &
interpreted.
4. ARCHITECTURE OF MRA
Fig. 1 : MRA Architecture Diagram
Figure 1 shows the flow diagram which depicted the development of Multilevel Relationship Algorithm (MRA).
Multilevel Relationship algorithm worked in three stages.
In first two stages it utilized association rule mining algorithm for finding out frequent itemsets. Datasets of
three shops i.e. Cloth, Jewelry & Footwear were given as an input to the stage I and Level 1 association between
individual items had been found out. Level 1 association between individual items was given as an input to
stage II and frequent itemsets had been found out. These frequent itemsets had generated new sale context. In
stage III it used bayesian probability to find out the external dependency & relationship amongst different shops,
pattern of sale and generated the rules for cooperative learning. The algorithm consists of three sub modules:
MRA Stage I, MRA stage II, Interdependency Module

At first stage it finds Level 1 association amongst items in the same shop i.e. Internal relationship between the
same item types i. e. x1(0…….n), x2(0………n), x3(0……..n) within the Cloth shop (X) i.e.
O = fs(X) = fstage_I_algorithm_apriori (X)
∴O=fstage_I_algorithm_apriori{x1(….n)}={x1(0) →x1(1),x1(3) →x1(2)…}

MRA Level 1 finds internal relationship between the same item types i. e. Y1(0…….N), Y2(0………N),
Y3(0……..N) within the Jewellery shop (Y) i.e.
O = fs(Y) = fstage_I_algorithm_apriori(Y)
∴O=fstage_I_algorithm_apriori{y1(0.n)}={y1(1) →y1(3),y1(2) →y1(5)}

MRA Level 1 also finds internal relationship between the same item types i. e. z1(0…….n), z2(0………n),
z3(0……..n) within the Footwear shop (Z)
O = fs(Z) = fstage_I_algorithm_apriori(Z)
∴O= fstage_I_algorithm_apriori{z1(0…..n)} = {z1(0) →z1(2), z1(2) →z1(4)…}
O=fstage_I_algorithm_apriori{z2(0….n)} = {z2(1) →z2(4), z2(1) →z2(3)…}

shop to find out the frequent item sets i.e. x1(0), x2(3), x3(1)……etc is called as global frequent itemsets. It
gives sets of frequent
item sets for the Cloth shop for different items i.e. Fx as below.
O = fs(x1,x2,x3)

MRA Stage II also gives with sets of frequent item sets for the Footwear shop for different items i.e. Fz as
below
O = fs(z1,z2,z3)
O= fphase_II_algorithm_apriori{z1,z2,z3}
={z1(0) →z2(1), z2(3) →z3(2), z3(0) →z2(2)……}
MRA Stage 3:
Interdependency by Bayesian Probability
It is necessary to determine dynamic behavior of Fi for particular season. External Dependencies amongst Items
Xi →Yi……Xn →Yn is found with Bayesian probability. New patterns are generated by Bayesian probability
through which learning rules are predicted & interpreted. Dependency between itemsets of Cloth shop (Fx) and
Jewelry shop (Fy) is find out as

presented in this section. Multilevel relationship algorithm applied for finding the frequent itemset and external
dependency amongst them. It comes up with pattern which can be further useful for leaning in cooperative
system. The results obtained for strength, support and interdependency of itemsets for both the algorithms.
Performance of Apriori and MRA has compared for these factors i.e. strength, support and interdependency.
Dataset Organization
Association mining data is generally obtained from databases created for other uses and manipulate into a
suitable representation through pre processing techniques. The resulting dataset is expressed as items that they
contain. Experiments have been conducted datasets of Cloth, Jewellery shops. Each data sets have the five
attributes i.e. Transaction ID, Item, Brand, Quantity and date of purchase. Dataset contains various items with
different brand purchased with diverse quantity during the specified period by the customers. Snap shots of each
data set is given in following table.

Fig. 5: Comparison of Apriori & MRA in terms of time (ms) & support for jewellery shop
The experiment results show that MRA performs better than the Apriori algorithm towards improvement of
mining association rule. Fig. 2 and 3shows comparison of Apriori & MRA in terms of item strength with
support for cloth and jewellery shop. Item relative strength for minimum support count of MRA is always
greater than Apriori algorithm. Increase in minimum support count decreases the item relative strength for both
MRA and Apriori algorithms. Fig. 4 and 5 shows comparison of Apriori & MRA in terms of time (ms) &
support for cloth and jewellery shop. Time required by MRA is always less than the time required by Apriori
algorithm. As number of support increases it decreases the time requirement for both MRA and Apriori
algorithms.
CONCLUSION
In this paper we proposed an efficient new Multilevel Relationship Algorithm. This is new approach applied to
the set of data from different shops for finding frequent item sets and finding external dependencies amongst
them. It comes up with patters which can be further useful for learning in cooperative algorithms. The classical
apriori algorithm widely used for association rule mining. Though this algorithm is good to find the frequent
item sets with minimum support it does not provide with dependencies between different frequent itemsets. The
main contribution of this paper is that Multilevel Apriori algorithm and Bayesian probability estimation has not
combined in any of the previous work.
