In this paper, interactions among fuzzy, rough, and soft set theory has been studied. The authors have examined these theories as a problem solving tool in association rule mining problems of data mining and knowledge discovery in databases. Although fuzzy and rough set have been well studied areas and successfully applied in association rule mining problem, but soft set theory needs more atten...

Association rule mining is an active data mining research area. Recent years have witnessed many efforts on discovering fuzzy associations. The key strength of fuzzy association rule mining is its completeness. This strength, however, comes with a major drawback to handle large datasets. It often produces a huge number of candidate itemsets. The huge number of candidate itemsets makes it ineffe...

Data mining is the process of extracting desirable knowledge or interesting patterns from existing databases for specific purposes. Many types of knowledge and technology have been proposed for data mining. Among them, finding association rules from transaction data is most commonly seen. Most studies have shown how binary valued transaction data may be handled. Transaction data in real-world a...

A major problem when conducting mining fuzzy association rules from the database (DB) is the large computation time and memory needed. In addition, the selection of fuzzy sets for each attribute of the database is very important because it will affect the quality of the mining rule. This paper proposes a method for mining fuzzy association rules using compressed database. We also use the approa...

Association rule mining searches for interesting relationship among items in a large data set. Market basket analysis, a typical example of association rule mining, analyzes buying habit of customers by finding association between the different items that customers put in their shopping cart (basket). Apriori algorithm is an influential algorithm for mining frequent itemset for generating assoc...

The major drawback of fuzzy data mining is that after applying fuzzy data mining on the quantitative data, the number of extracted fuzzy association rules is very huge. When many association rules are obtained, the usefulness of them will be reduced. In this paper, we introduce an approach to reduce and summarize the extracted fuzzy association rules after fuzzy data mining. In our approach, in...

Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) is the process of automatically searching patterns from large volumes of data by using specific data mining techniques. Classification, association, and associative classification (integration of classification and association) rule mining are popularly used rule mining techniques in KDD for harvesting knowledge in the form of rule. The classical rule mini...

This paper describes how to discover dynamic relationships among genes from time series microarray data with association rule mining approach. To hold dynamic information in the rules, the association rules were extracted using the constraints that expression level of genes appear in the antecedent and change direction of expression level of genes in the consequent. Besides, we have applied fuz...

The purpose of the work described in this paper is to provide an intelligent intrusion detection system (IIDS) that uses two of the most popular data mining tasks, namely classification and association rules mining together for predicting different behaviors in networked computers. To achieve this, we propose a method based on iterative rule learning using a fuzzy rule-based genetic classifier....
