Association rule learning is a machine learning method used to discover interesting relationships between variables in large databases. It identifies strong rules by measuring the support, which is the frequency or fraction of transactions containing an itemset, and the confidence, which is the strength of the association between itemsets and how often one itemset appears given the other. Association rule learning analyzes databases to find frequent itemsets whose support is above a minimum threshold and generates rules that can be used to predict future outcomes.

machine learning method for discovering interesting relations between variables in large databases. It is intended to identify strong rules discovered in databases using some measures of interestingness Support Count • Support Count (σ) – Frequency of occurrence of an item set • σ({2, 5}) = 3 • σ({apple, pear}) = 1 • Support (s) – Fraction of (records) transactions that contain an item-set. • s ({2, 5}) = ¾ • ({apple, pear}) = 1/8 Frequent Itemset • An itemset whose support is greater than or equal to support threshold. Association Rule • An association rule is an implication of two itemset: X Y Measures of Interest • Many Measures of interest. • The two most used are: – Support and confidence • Support (as discussed earlier) • Fraction of transactions that contain a rule (both X and Y) • Confidence • Strength of the association rule i.e., measures how often items in Y appear in transactions that contain X
