Different studies have proposedmethods formining fuzzy association rules fromquantitative data, where themembership functions were assumed to be known in advance. However, it is not an easy task to know a priori the most appropriate fuzzy sets that cover the domains of quantitative attributes for mining fuzzy association rules. This paper thus presents a new fuzzy data-mining algorithm for extr...

This paper proposes a fusion model to reinforce fuzzy association rules, which contains two main procedures: (1) employing the cumulative probability distribution approach (CPDA) to partition the universe of discourse and build membership functions; and (2) using the AprioriTid mining algorithm to extract fuzzy association rules. The proposed model is more objective and reasonable in determinin...

In data mining, the association rules are used to find for the associations between the different items of the transactions database. As the data collected and stored, rules of value can be found through association rules, which can be applied to help managers execute marketing strategies and establish sound market frameworks. This paper aims to use Fuzzy Frequent Pattern growth (FFP-growth) to...

Lee, Stolfo, and Mok have previously reported the use of association rules and frequency episodes for mining audit data to gain knowledge for intrusion detection. The integration of association rules and frequency episodes with fuzzy logic can produce more abstract and flexible patterns for intrusion detection, since many quantitative features are involved in intrusion detection and security it...

The goal of this paper is to present a logic model with very good properties for the representation and evaluation of fuzzy association rules. For that we are going to combine two approaches. The first one is a model for the representation and evaluation of crisp association rules. The second one is a new proposal for the representation of imprecise properties (in particular for fuzzy sets) by ...

It is one of the problems in association rules mining that a great many of rules generated from the dataset makes it difficult to analyze and use. An algorithm named FCABTAR for association rules clustering is proposed and applied to association rules managing. Firstly, an example is presented to demonstrate the weakness by the distance clustering. Secondly, the definition of fuzzy simulation d...

We have been using fuzzy data mining techniques to extract patterns that represent normal behavior for intrusion detection. In this paper we describe a variety of modifications that we have made to the data mining algorithms in order to improve accuracy and efficiency. We use sets of fuzzy association rules that are mined from network audit data as models of " normal behavior. " To detect anoma...

This article proposes an algorithm for data mining that presents a new measure for assistance in the extraction of knowledge. The algorithm uses association rules to extract rules from the databases and fuzzy logic for the classification and comparison of the collected rules. Key-words: data mining, association rules, fuzzy logic, similarity and algorithm of the inverse confidence.

In this paper we extend the problem of classification using Fuzzy Association Rule Mining and propose the concept of Fuzzy Weighted Associative Classifier (FWAC). Classification based on Association rules is considered to be effective and advantageous in many cases. Associative classifiers are especially fit to applications where the model may assist the domain experts in their decisions. Weigh...
